AFAIK, there is no dancing - at least not what Americans call dancing - and there is never any touching of someone of the opposite sex if not married.
 
They have some pretty bizarre laws when it comes to rape and incest also - the female is generally killed for bringing shame on the family. 
 
Of course, there are many types of muslims - just like there's lots of different Baptists, - I'm not saying they all practice the same way.

So

They are essentially just like Southern Baptists?

Never say hello to each other at the liquor store...

Make me wonder...  Can Muslims dance or is that also forbidden?

towards a muslim country you'll see many of the planes occupants who appear 
middle eastern (sorry about the racial profiling, but it's my prerogative) 
drinking like there's no tomorrow.  Then, when the plane enters the 
countries' air space many change into traditional garb and stop drinking.
When flying to Saudi Arabia a few years ago I sat next to a engineering co. 
rep. (owner IIRC)  who thought I would be in a position to get him on 
bidding lists (not likely I said ;-) but that didn't stop him buying us 
drinks all the way from UK to SA.

Can you say hypocrite ?

Watch the drinking in an Islamic country.  Being drunk is a serious crime!

Get drunk.
Start a business.
Rent a car and drive to where you were going to fly.
See if there's a FOC in Dubai, and arrange a get-together.
Buy a cheap watch.  Or cat.  Or gun.
Get drunk.
:)
Tell us what you actually end up doing, please!
All the best,

I know this list is rather well traveled, I've got a long layover (9
hours) on May 8 in Dubai.  Ideas?

Thanks,
Erik
