2:48AM - Entertaining Kuwait since 2003

360Dewan uploaded the video above onto YouTube of a Nissan Patrol Land Cruiser on two wheels at a traffic intersection. Best part of the video is when the Patrol gets chased by cops at the end. [Link]

I just noticed Jazeera Airways have introduced a new pricing structure. If you want to take advantage of their lowest fare you now need to pay extra if you want to take any kind of luggage with you and if you want to choose your seats you also need to pay extra.

Here is a larger shot of the chart above [Link]

A 1985 song written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, produced and conducted by Quincy Jones and recorded by a super group of 45 popular musicians including Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder, Kenny Rogers, Tina Turner, Billy Joel, Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Willie Nelson, Bruce Springsteen, Cyndi Lauper, Bob Dylan, Ray Charles, Dan Aykroyd and LaToya Jackson.

I read about this on CNN earlier and just found the video online now.

Famous for their rendition of “Thriller” in 2007, the prisoners at the Cebu Detention and Rehabilitation Center in the central Philippines have once again choreographed a tribute to Michael Jackson. [TMZ]

When did they time to rehearse? [YouTube]

4,475 Lebanese participated in breaking the Guinness world record for the longest Dabke line. They weren’t as synchronized as the 1,500 Filipino prisoners dancing to Thriller but they looked like they had a lot of fun. Ironically, this record was broken in Montreal and not in Lebanon. [YouTube]

Just yesterday I was listening to his album and playing his old videogame on the Sega Genesis. [News Link]

Update: Found this cool picture of Michael Jackson with Michael Jordan and Kriss Kross.

Back in April I was checking up on my domains and realized I had one domain missing called t20.org. So I checked up on it and it turned out the domain had expired and I had forgotten to renew it. I was really pissed off but now I am even more pissed off because I just realized the domain could have actually been worth some money today.

There is a new version of cricket that’s become super popular recently called Twenty20. Twenty20 cricket is also know as T20 cricket. SUCKS!

Which resort has the largest pool in Kuwait? I’ve seen the Hilton one and its tiny, same with Sheikh, Sea Shells, Palms, Marina Hotel, Sea Club and SAS.

It seems some old pictures I scanned of my mum back when she was a flight attendant with Kuwait Airways in the 70s are being forwarded around by email as Kuwait Airways in the 70s with no credit to their original source (me!). Sucks but hey that’s the Internet. Here is the link to my original post with more information and pictures. [Link]

Fake? Doesn’t look like it. [YouTube]

I just got an email from Q80 Boy telling me that 360 Mall will be opening this Thursday. Should be interesting, here is a link to their website. [Link]

Update: The stores that will most likely be open on Thursday are Geant, Toys R Us, Lush, Nike, Intersport, Marks & Spencer, A Pea in the Pod, Bebe and a handful of others. (Thanks AndyQ8)

Update2: 360 Mall just contacted me, they are no longer opening tomorrow it’s changed to the 5th of July.

Update2: Kuwait Black Market has pictures of the inside of the mall which you can check [Here]

Just found this picture of an NBK camel bank but it must be super old as in 1970s or very early 80s old since the camel bank I had in the 80s looked different than this. I don’t think NBK had a logo when this camel bank was released since there isn’t even a logo on it.

Here is a link to the original photo plus some other pictures of Kuwait from the 80s like the one below of Salwa in 1984 after a rain shower all taken by a former KES teacher. [Link]

The new 2012 trailer is up and it looks like its going to be one kick ass movie. November seems far far away. [New Trailer]

If you’re a Kubrick fan watch the original trailer [Here]

Has anyone noticed the new biscuit cone they’re using for KDD Silver ice cream? The color is a lot lighter, it has a powdery feel to it which I hate and it also tastes different. Why change something that was perfect?

Note: Also this isn’t new but I noticed awhile back that Silver no longer has caramel inside or at least the quantity is much much less. Before I used to be able to see some caramel streaks in Silver but not anymore.

I have two issues with gas stations in Kuwait. First is that there are only five stations (at least it feels that way) and the second is that they lack mini-marts. Maybe sometime in the future these issues will get fixed but for now it seems the priority was to face lift the oil change section.

The picture above is of the new Khidma oil change at the Kortaba station. Looks pretty but I would think if they were going to face lift something it would be the actual gas station and not the small oil change area.
