Travel theory

yesterday a friend of mine told me she read somewhere that the best time to buy a travel ticket is wednesday right after midnight. according to stats, that’s when u catch fares at their cheapest

if this is true, i think it may only apply to the u.s., but I will test this theory this week on jazeera and compare prices

i just checked flights to beirut, and today i can get a roundtrip for 83 kd; let’s see if I can get a cheaper fare on wednesday after midnight

Film screenings will take place daily from Sunday, April 20th through Thursday, April 24th at the Khaldiya Memorial Hall, Kuwait University.

The events will include a variety of world-renowned films from Palestine, spanning different genres, themes and styles.

The schedule is as follows:

All screenings will commence at 7 p.m., to be followed by a discussion.

Attendance is free of charge, but seating is limited.
For its part, Shashati.TV is organizing these events in an effort to promote film culture and awareness, as well as promote Arab Film to local, regional, and international audiences both as an art form as well as a means of entertainment."


i just got a facebook invitation to these screenings, it started sunday so i already missed the first two nights, but i think i'll go to the rest of them, i have only seen one of these movies.


honestly, i'm just glad to see there are activities like this being held in kuwait, something different to do on a weekday.

MoI Radio Ads

anyone hear the new comercials they have on 99.7 FM, the Ministry of Interior is "ristricting the usage of mobile phones while driving" but apparently you are allowed to use a "hand free device"

the advertisements are the cheapest and cheesiest ads i've ever heard, they probably cost 20 kd to make, but the company that did it probably charged 5000 kd.


if you haven't heard them yet, tune into 99.7 cause they repeat them every 5 minutes, you're bound to catch one, and its a good laugh

what would i need to do to record these ads and have moi accept them? i will do it for half the price and 100% better quality

law is being implemeneted begening of May 2008

another blonde abomination

A few days ago I was having some work done at my local garage. A blonde came in and asked for a seven-hundred-ten. We all looked at each other and another customer asked, "What is a seven-hundred-ten?" She replied, "You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine, I have lost it and need a new one." She replied that she did not know exactly what it was, but this piece had always been there. The mechanic gave her a piece of paper & a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like. She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710. He then took her over to another car which had it's hood up and asked "is there a 710 on this car?" She pointed and said, "Of course, it's right there."

If you're not sure what a 710 is click here

I wish

i wish that...


- working on thursdays was optional

- my summer vacation would plan itself and that my friends werent such flakes

- i could play a musical instrument

- i would spend less time on the internet

- bonuses would be every 6 months

- the next parliament would be a good one

- the weather would stay the way it is now all year

- my work location was against traffic

- i could be a morning person


inevitably, this song comes to mind...
