Just found a small rose bouquet on the door step of my apartment. Someone either has a crush on me… or Nat. I am guessing its not me.

What the hell? Two months back I got into a huge fight with Showtime because I wanted to cancel my subscription and they told me they were still going to take 1 more month of subscription fee because I didn’t give them a months notice. I couldn’t understand the logic and after a large argument I gave in as long as it meant I wouldn’t have to deal with them ever again.

Well guess what, I just checked my account balance and Showtime took another month of subscription from me! What kind of company is this? Its bad enough they took an extra month of subscription and now it seems they HAVEN’T even cancelled my subscription at all!

Showtime are really terrible, I keep thinking they can’t get any worse and they keep getting.

Dubai shoot is postponed so I am going to be staying in Kuwait for Eid.
Thats a good thing.

I have seen a ton of these videos of guys drifting in the desert using Camry’s and Altima’s but this is the first time I see it done with a new 7-series BMW. [Video]

Thanks bo9agr

I don’t know if crazy is the right word, psycho might work better. No really watch this video and see. What the hell, its like she is on drugs or something. Fucking freaky. [Video] #

Wow, if I had the free time I would definitely attempt making this. I don’t think I have ever seen a cooler Halloween pumpkin. [Link]

Seems I might be going back to Dubai tomorrow for another photo shoot. I think this is the first shoot I am hoping won’t take place because I really wanted to spend the Eid holiday just being lazy at home. An interesting fact, the same room I stayed in just a few days ago is now nearly double the price and I am guessing its because of Eid.

Metronatural is the new slogan for Seattle. It took over a year to develope at a cost of $200,000. I am definitely in the wrong line of work. [Link]

Some Bling Bling. [Link]

A guy basically decided to analyze CNN’s main page and remove everything except the real news. Turns out the majority of the articles on the main page are mostly just entertainment and gossip. I also noticed this recently, CNN’s main page is being filled up with articles of the kind I would find on The Superficial or Socialite’s Life except CNN was always a few days slower. [Link]

I have been watching UFC since morning starting from UFC 1 all the way to UFC 7. There were some amazing fights especially since the original UFC fights didn’t have any rules.

My favorite fight so far has to be Emmanuel Yarborough vs Keith Hackney. Emmanuel is 2.06 meters and weighs 280KG while Keith is 90KG and 1.8 meters tall, so it was a match between David and Goliath. Emmanuel is actually in the guiness book of records for being the largest athlete. Anyway he ended up losing the fight but Keith actually fractured his hand while trying to knock Emmanuel out. He later became known as Keith “The Giant Killer” Hackney. He must have punched Emmanuel’s head like 30 times before the fight was stopped, it was like trying to put down a giant bear using only a spoon.

Thats whats cool about the old UFC’s, no rules, no weight classes and a lot of blood.

I am a FireFox fan myself but I guess anything is better then IE6 [Link]

This site has articles on every letter of the alphabet and talks about their origins. Its actually really interesting. [Link]

Back in Kuwait and feels really good.
