Wow, Apple just released a software (for mac and pc) called the iPod shuffle reset utility. Basically this software brought my iPod shuffle back from the dead! I can’t believe it worked.. [Link]

Since I put the Contact Us link on top I started to get strange emails. Not spam mind you, just emails that seem very out of place. Today I got one which I thought I would share with you as an example:

This is a video someone called Youfes did for a school project. The video is about how Kuwaiti teenagers are different and have different interests. My favorite part was “The Geezes”. [Video]

Thanks RJV

A very easy how-to on giving your resume a facelift using Microsoft Word. When I get a crappy generic looking résumé printed on a 10 year old ink jet printer I usually don’t bother looking at it. But, when I get one thats laid out nicely I always end up reading it. [Link]

Here is a collection of very short science fiction stories. How short? Each story is made up of only 6 words! 33 writers and 5 designers each wrote a 6-word science fiction story and surprisingly some are pretty cool.. [Link]

This Eid holiday I have done nothing but be a couch potato. Nat is in Lebanon visiting her family so its been just me and Geo at home for the past 3 days. So far I have watched the first season of Brotherhood, the second season of The Contender and a a season and a half of Nip/Tuck. Oh and for dinner I just order Hardees which means once Nat gets back she is going to put me on fast food free diet for like a month or something…

The trailer for the new season of 24 is up but I am having trouble viewing it on my Mac! [Link]

update: thanks to Fred from Fox, here is Real player version. [Video]

update 2: Ok just watched the trailer, now I can’t wait for the season to start. I hope Tony Almeida turns out to be still alive, that would be really cool.

I just read in the forum that half a dozen donuts from Krispy Kreme costs KD2.750. Can anyone confirm that? I find that ridiculously overpriced if it is.

Update: seem these are the correct prices, but I still need to confirm it myself:
Original Glazed: 350fils for 1 / KD2.100 for 6 / KD3.000 for 12
Assorted Donuts: 400fils for 1 / KD2.400 for 6 / KD3.500 for 12

A collection of excuses for not blogging more. [Link] #

Threadless are having a discount, tons of t-shirts for only $10 each. The offer ends Tomorrow. [Link]

I passed by the TriStar workshop today to pass them my bike keys. They finished fixing and repainting my bike after my crash two weeks ago and tomorrow they will be taking it out for a test drive to make sure everything is working right. All my wounds have healed nicely except for my left wrist which still hasn’t healed. I should pass by Razzi Hospital this week to see whats up with that.

Awhile back k.thekuwaiti posted that he saw the Amazing Race reality show guys in Kuwait. Well the episode finally aired, its episode 6 of this season Amazing Race. I am currently downloading the episode as I am writing this. ForzaQ8 has a preview of the episode. [Link]

Recently PayPal started accepting credit cards from Bahrain, Qatar and UAE. How does Kuwait fit in to this? Well the American Express office in Kuwait issues their credit cards from Bahrain. So, if you have an American Express credit card you can now sign up for a PayPal account. When PayPal asks for your billing address just put the address of the Bahrain Amex office which is the following:

P O Box 5990
Al Seef District 428
Manama 428
Bahrain

For those of you who don’t have an American Express card you can get one from the American Express office located in Salhiya Complex. Their phone number is 2413000.

Thanks to BusyNow for sharing this information with me.

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.
