| It's been my observation that you are pretty safe just calling any male
| Arab "AL".
|
| Seems like that's pretty common, like "Al-Mohammad, Al-Sadr, Al-Qaeda, Al-
| Whatever"...
|
| Let's Practice:
|
| "Hey Al! - I See Paris, I See France, I See Someone's Bomb-Belt!"

"Next, from Louis Vuitton, a lovely crocodile suicide bomber's belt...
This is the belt all well - appointed Tangoes will be wearing this Spring."

Roger on the "Al" thing - maybe that's like Mc / Mac, inasmuch as it
denotes "the son of." That's just a guess, of course - but I do like your
idea, as it requires far less work. "Step up on that platform and put the
nice rope around your neck, Al."

Hey, we can modify a good old joke for this one:

Q:Why does "AL" always carry a turd in his pocket?
A: It's his photo ID
