Saudi saying

[S O F I]

My father rode a camel. I drive a car.
My son flies a jet airplane. His son will ride a camel.

 

[Farzin]

I dont get it.

 

[Rahim]

does that mean my son will have to ride a camel too?

 

[S O F I]

I dont get it.

Apply it to energy use.

 

[Shadows]

My father rode a camel. I drive a car.
My son flies a jet airplane. His son will ride a camel.

oo i get it.

so your father was poor, bought a camel.

He used it as a taxi to buy you a car.

You invested in an economical car, and saved $ for your sons jet airplane.

He didnt have insurance and crashed, and now his son rides a camel because he is stuck with the bill?

 

[Farzin]

Apply it to energy use.

Now it makes sense.

Though it won't go back to camels it'll just be "My son is dead because all the food was used for ethanol."

 

[Rahim]

i get it now. my son's son will ride his bike to work.
