...were surprised that you were able to sneak into the final cut? The best thing we got away with was probably the improv that happens after Will and Danny drink the juice from the "fantasy fruit" that Holly identifies as a possible narcotic. They're lying there in the desert, drunk, and then Danny suddenly started going off on a tangent about how this is just like a Sandals Resort, and he turns and asks Marshall and Chaka how much he'd have to pay them to make out, like it's spring break or something. And then Will went...
...Friday, reimagines the space-time of this alternate universe with an eye toward the absurd.

A graphic logo on Saudi television's coverage of the event depicted Obama and Abdullah in the corner of the screen, their faces nearly touching. (See pictures of Obama in Saudi Arabia...
...once, one of America's closest economic and political allies in the region but also the principle exporter of an austere brand of Islam that has been exploited by jihadists around the world - and also the home country of most of the 9/11 hijackers. The Kingdom supported Operation Desert Storm in 1991, in which a U.S. multinational force drove Iraqi invaders out of Kuwait, and its Prince Sultan Air Base served as a command-and-control center for the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. Saudi Arabia has also championed a two-state solution to the conflict between Israelis...
