* this is not based on any stats or facts, it's just my opinion

It's no longer fiction

what do these movies have in common ? deep impact, 5th element, head of state...

they all have black men as u.s. presidents

and now it's reality, so radical change is possible after all

is there also hope for radical changes in kuwait ?

My next car

i decided that this will be my next car. it's gorgeous, it's fast, and it's german.

Heart attack grill

it seems there is a burger restaurant / grill which serves food that is so unhealthy, it's called the heart attack grill.

the place is set up like a hospital, with waitresses dressed in sexy nurse outfits, and the menu has items called flatliner fries, quadruple bypass burger (see pic below), ...

they market themselves as the ultimate health hazard, which is a concept called anti-marketing, and it works !

Here is their website http://www.heartattackgrill.com/, and check out the disclaimer at the bottom of every page :) u can also check out the wiki entry here

I wouldnt eat there, but I have to admit it's bold and creative

Oh, and it's in arizona

We all have our "blond" moments...

A do or a don't ?

wearing a white (cream) dress to a wedding.

You think u lost money ?

i still dont feel bad for them

Beirut airport worse than MOI

one of the great passtimes i use while waiting for flights at airports is blogging. to my surprise, i tries to log into blogger on my way back from my trip, and this is what i got:



why would they block news boards and blogs ? i was annoyed and spent more time on facebook, which i'm getting pretty sick of by the way

Facebook question

is the number of friends you have on facebook a direct reflection of how popular / social you really are

Before u go

by now everyone is probably on a plane or packing,

i myself will be going to beirut, which is always a treat,

but before u take off, and before i go, i just want to say...

good effort everyone, eidkom mubarak ;)

isti3ba6

do not understimate the power of isti3ba6, or "playing dumb" (joud's quote of the day)

it can really get u out of jams - be it with the police, the family, the friends, the colleagues, ...

yesterday, it got me out of a traffic fine (talking on the phone)

I did it !

with a perfect score; now i need a new challenge

Shut down

i love getting massages, and i get them ona regular basis... but i have this problem which keeps me from fully enjoying them

my muscles are completely relaxed, but my mind doesnt stop working, it rehashes things, conversations, situations, work, tries to solve problems, makes plans... or for the very least i have a song stuck in my head

then i catch myself, and try to "free my mind" as i call it, which works for a minute, then it starts all over again

does anyone have any tricks or advice on how to "shut down ?"

1 year and 32 weeks

as u can see sometimes my downloads are reallllly slow . how can i get them to improve ? i heard of port forwarding, but arent there any softwares which magically make the dowloads better ? i have a pretty good internet speed so i'm sure theres room for dowload improvement...

6omasha

as i read jewaira's post about the cannon going off for fu6oor time, i wondered about the people/audience who sit at the scene to watch it/hear it live, u can see them on TV during the daily airing of the event...

wouldnt they rather be in the coziness of their own home, sitting at their dining room table ? i mean it's humid outside, and the cannon is damn loud; to each their own i guess

...And another teaser

is it just me or is this pretty tacky ?

plus, i find the rainbow to be somewhat controversial for our our region, given the connotation it has in many countries..

or is kuwait getting past the taboo-ness of homosexuality ?

.... i didnt think so either

Sleepwalking

i dunno whether its the lack of cafeine or the fact that i'm going to bed so late, but i seriously have to make a tremendous effort to keep my eyelids from closing right now

i'm at the office but my added value is minute , and whatever few brain cells i had were used up writing this post...
