Find 20
I just stuck 20 of these post-it notes around our office. Whichever employee can find the location of all 20 post-it’s gets two free cans of Shani. Most are easy to find, while some are going to be impossible. Just a little fun around the office.
Best Shawerma?
I passed by Badar Al Badoor yesterday. They supposingly make the best shawerma in Kuwait but when I passed by they still hadn’t started making shawermas so I couldn’t try them out. Will try to pass by tonight.
To get to Badar Al Badoor you take the Gulf Road as if going from the Kuwait Towers toward Salmiya. Once you pass Fuddruckers on your left and Safir Hotel on your right you take a right following the Commercial Bank of Kuwait signage. Once you take the right (Safir Hotel is now still on your right hand like this) you take your first right again and you will spot Badar Al Badoor in front of you.

One small step back
NASA lost 700 boxes which included a lot of important items including the original tape recordings of Neil Armstrong’s famous “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Misplacing 1 box I can understand, but misplacing 700??? [Link]

Just got my new headphones today. I ordered the AKG K81 DJ to replace my Sennheiser PX100 since i needed “closed back” headphones for work. They are currently being burned into as they need around 50 hours before the sound starts to settle. Once they are ready and I use them for about a week I will post a review.

Tonight I met up with the owners of Burger Boutique. For some reason I always imagined them to be old but they turned out to be young and one of them was even with me in high school. They are very cool guys and they are extremly passionate in what they do. Tonight they relaunched the Burger Boutique website so check it out. [Link]
