BBC World Radio in Kuwait
I just read on Kuwaitism’s blog that the English version of BBC World is now available in Kuwait on 100.1 FM. I used to listen to the station the whole time while I was in Lebanon on the frequency AM 1323. It was the coolest station filled with news, documentaries and interviews. Here in Kuwait I listen to VOA news on FM 96.9 but early in the year they changed their programming to focus more on educating people on the English language and its just really crap now. Can’t wait till I get into my car and try tuning to BBC World.
Someone of you might have read yesterday in the news about the artist Banksy and how he smuggled 500 doctored copies of Paris Hilton’s debut album into music stores throughout the UK, where they ended up getting sold without the shops’ knowledge. Well Stereogum has a video showing how Banksy smuggled the CDs into the shop. Check it out. [Link]
Here is also a photoset on Flickr of the doctored copies of Hiltons CD. [Link]

Hells Kitchen
I was going to write a post about how I am currently addicted to the reality tv show Hells Kitchen but I just fucked up big time. I have watched a season and a half worth of shows since Thursday night and I am currently half way through season 2. Problem is I wanted to find an image for this post so I went to the official Hells Kitchen website and when I got there right on the main page they had the picture of the winner of season 2! Now I know who is going to win and it just sucks. I am pissed.
Nathans
Nathans is opening at Souk Sharq adjacent to McDonalds. I think they already have a branch in Kuwait but its located in some obscure area. They have really good hotdogs so I can’t wait till they open up.

The Madden Curse
Football players whose pictures grace the covers of Madden NFL video games are doomed. I had heard of the curse before but I just saw the facts to back this curse up and its just freaky. [Link]
