    My friend down there have a deer lease somewhere out in the middle of nowhere. It's like an hour from the nearest town (Medina), and it backs up into Lake Medina. It's beautiful out there. The scorpions are bad though.

    I was born in Kashgar, Xinjiang Autonomous Region, to a family of Uighur wool merchants and became a Rockets fan after Yao was drafted.

    Yeah, man I had to sell a lot of freaking wool to get over here, damn that was tough. I think I killed about 37 goats just to upgrade to first class on the way over here.

    No, actually I am just kidding, I'm not Uighur and have never even been there - but I am planning a trip there this June.

    i have heard it is open to tourists.

    and let's just say this: there's a reason he's known as Vlad the Impaler. Not sure which is worse...impaling your enemies so they look like a forest of men...or drinking their blood. Both were designed to scare the crap out of the Muslims from trying to conquer his land again.
