: I'm not certain why there are so many Lebanese, Palestinians,
: Jordanians, Syrians and Yemeni hereabouts. They're a fun lot.
Remember
: Klinger from M*A*S*H*? He was supposed to be Lebanese and from
Toledo
: Ohio. (Damn, all those episodes in drag, and no henna! What were
they
: thinking?)
>>>>>>> Haha! Klinger! He was Hillarious!!!
: There are South Asians here, but they are relatively clannish, and
: when I have hennaed near them they have been pretty dismissive of
me.
: Occasionally brides to these families want me to henna them for
their
: weddings, but more often, the older women of the family refuse to
: belive I can do the job and I get suddenly dismissed from the
: contract. One fairly amusing festival I worked..... I sat under my
: canopy and hennaed (very successfully, nonstop), and the South
Asian
: family in the booth next to me tried to sell "South Park"
keychains,
: beercoolers and Tees (Unsuccessfully).
South Park! Ha!Somehow, though, I can't picture that.
