Dubai is a seemingly magical place. It’s the global capital of excess, and a vacation destination for the world’s most powerful and wealthy people. It’s like a Middle Eastern Vegas with much taller buildings and a much more complicated political character. Check out these sick pics that could only be taken in Dubai.

You could've stopped right there. Those few words speak volumes about you. I just wonder what the heck you are doing here?
But that's the thing about thermodynamic entropy .... it doesn't leave you alone with your little constitution and your freedoms and your energetic free society .... it comes to see you, promoting energy decay and ultimate death everywhere, remorselessly and universally, like Stephen King's "Langoliers".
I clicked to read reply and then saw post #40 above also.
Two great lines! ‘Camelot’- that’s killer.
LOL! Me too, I had to sit back in my chair and hold on to the arm rests.........
See what you did? You made me go look it up. Now I R smort!
;)
I'd seen pictures of them before, just didn't know that they had a name, or what it was. "Negative edge/zero edge pool" is descriptive, too. Tidbit I found: "whoever it was" did the first such installation in the 17th century for Louis XIV, at Versailles.
Yes, and I can imagine the sensation of swimming in one on top of the Burj Dubai or the Burj Arab. Not.
Brutus complex. Memento Carthaginem, memento Sodom.

He is here and has something interesting to add. We have lost enough people at FR without this attacking.
Hebrew signs are used in many countries besides Israel.
And the numerals are NOT Roman. Those numerals have origins from Hindu mathematicians, who invented ZERO and that revolutionized advances in computing.
Blame it on our republican politicians who are puppets of their rich donors. Rush Limbaugh spent better part of his 1st hour this morning talking about how the republicans are acting like wussies.
GO Trump 2016...only candidate not in the pockets of his rich donors. Last chance to elect an America first president in a very long time.
Funny, on your own profile page you said you were tired of Leftists .... is that "attacking"?
What happened to "call 'em like we see 'em", did we check that in for the Walden football cheer?
"Hey, ho, Go with the Flow!!"
When I was in my young teens, I jumped from one 3 story roof top to next house’s 3 story roof top, chasing kites. Now I am petrified of heights and avoid window seats in airplanes.
see post #49.
Really?, like where? The car registration plates shown in the picture are Israeli also.
I have seen Hebrew signs in Chicago!
Do they have camels running around in Israel?
Stop the fighting, NOW! Anyone taking personal shots will be dismssed from the thread post haste, on my orders.
On my page I say to Freepers that I am tired of leftists.
I am tired of personal attacks on other Freepers, ones that are low blows and have nothing positive to add to the conversation. Don’t we have enough problems to focus on instead of attacking each other. Sometimes I swear that FR has turned into a circular firing squad.
Use some intelligence and facts to make a discussion, instead of attacking someone with insinuations about their sexual stuff.
We are losing Freepers left and right because of constant wearing stupid comments that do nothing to move information or discussion along.
YOu are far from the only one, you were the one stuck with my frustration.
They weren't acting.
