Nat and I work in Kuwait but unless noted otherwise, our posts are never related to our professional and confidential situations or linked to our employers in any way. This distinction must remain clear. This blog is intended to provide a semi-permanent point in time snapshot and manifestation of the various memes running around in our brains, and as such any thoughts and opinions expressed within out-of-date posts may not be the same, nor even similar, to those we may hold today. Feel free to challenge us, disagree with us, or tell us we’re completely nuts in the comments section of each blog entry, but we reserve the right to delete any comment for any reason whatsoever (abusive, profane, rude, or anonymous comments) – so keep it polite, please. If we post something here that you find helpful or interesting, then that’s great; but when push comes to shove, this is our personal blog. The views and opinions expressed on these pages are ours and ours alone and not those of our employer. We have absolutely no, zero, nada, intention to malign any religion, ethnic group, club, organization, business, company, individual or anyone or thing, especially those with the ability and desire to fight back. Oh, and just in case, if we say something stupid in the future (and for which we humbly apologize in advance), it’s better to be able to point out that the stupidity is ours, and ours alone.
