I should have posted this awhile back but I totally forgot. This is a documentary by Michael Moore from 1994 when he came to Kuwait. [YouTube]
Thanks RJV!
Did anyone check out the back page of Al-Watan newspaper today? There is an advert for these two Kuwaiti magicians who recently made a helicopter disappear in Las Vegas. The magic duo go by the name Majstick and I checked out their website and they don’t have the video of their helicopter disappearing trick but they do have videos of other tricks like a bouncing tissue and a floating ball. I took the courtesy of uploading their videos to YouTube to make it more available to everyone, you can check out their magic tricks by following the links below.

A friend recommended I try shawerma from a place in Salmiya called Happy Duck. At first I was hesitant but then I thought to myself, what if this back alley place with a stupid name turns out to have really good shawermas? I decided not to discriminate and give the place a shot.
I passed by the place late in the evening, it wasn’t too hard to find, I just took the exit on the Gulf Road right before were Crepaway (now called Divas) used to be located. The location wasn’t bad, they had ample parking space and no traffic around them. I went down, ordered two shawermas and a coke, came back to the car and started eating them.
My first impression was that the shawerma was really greasy. I munched away and went through the first shawerma without encountering anything out of the ordinary but when I hit the second sandwich something tasted really weird. Kinda like the chicken was under cooked or something which grossed me out so I threw it awat. I didn’t like their shawerma at all.
The price of their shawerma is 250 fils which competes with my two favorite shawerma places at the moment, Badar Al Badoor and Al Ghader, but Happy Duck is not even in the same league as them. Final score is a 1.5 out of 5.
This is one of the cheesiest videos I’ve seen in a while but its worth watching because its that bad. The story is about a high school student in Kuwait who feels Kuwait resembles O.C. (Orange County). [YouTube]

Silly prank we played on someone at work.
A site with guides on how to get rid of common annoyances like how to get rid of bad smells or how to get rid of headaches. Lots of information on a wide range of issues. [Link]
Tonight I noticed a temporary tattoo stand in the Marina Mall food court where they airbrush different designs onto your skin. Seeing the tattoo stand made me think, how come we don’t have tattoo parlors in Kuwait? I remember ages ago someone telling me its illegal but I doubt thats the case, why would getting a tattoo be illegal?

So you see the above Think Pink advert and you don’t think much but then you see the below Think Fruit advert and it’s like wait a second!
The funny part is they are both located next to each other. The Think Fruit is for Masafi while the Think Pink is for Sweet’N Low.
Thanks Anas!
I use Dictionary.com a lot but I think I just found a replacement, Ninja Words “A really fast dictionary… fast like a ninja.” [Link]
