An Idiot Abroad goes to the Middle East
« on: February 05, 2011, 10:35:17 PM »
They tell Karl he's headed to Jordan to see the cavefront carvings, then divert his to Israel.

They play "Let's kidnap Karl" and then lead him about while letting him shoot a pistol.  Turns out he's not all that bad - at least not limp-wristing or pushing his shots.

This guy Karl Pilkington must been getting paid a massive fortune to put up with what he's endured so far.  And there are what, at least 4 more Wonders to be seen?  If they continued to mess with him like they have done so far, the biggest part of being called an idiot was to have continued to put up with the two guys that send him around the world.  I know I would have packed it in well before episode three.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Exactly what I was wondering.  I think it's some kinda "entertainment" on the idiot box, judging by the source and the description.   =D

Wierd.  Alternate title might be "Fistful Gets a Passport".
Might watch a couple shows.

As if. Getting paid to take holiday in exotic locales? I would never be that lucky.

If you say so... Just keep in mind that Ricky Gervais would be declaring you "At your funniest when backed into a corner and poked with a stick."
