2:48AM - Entertaining Kuwait since 2003

From the Men of the World to the Women of the World. Really hillarious. [Link]

The World Cup is coming up and Chevrolet in Kuwait are presenting their Winning 11 Chevrolet team. They have exactly 11 Chevrolet models and its everything you need to make a winning football team. Everyone is cashing in on the World Cup fever and they cannot ignore the frenzy. Thats why they are equipping all 5 of their showrooms with plasma screens and ART subscriptions to display the games live. They also have an offer where if you buy any car at Alghanim Automotive you can win a trip to the winning country of the World Cup. They will send you there in business class and even give you KD1000 to spend as you wish.

In addition, all their showrooms are branded ‘football style’ with flags, TV screens, salesmen wearing jerseys etc.. Even if people aren’t buying a car they want them to visit the showrooms and enjoy the games with them. So if you have the time pass by and check them out.

A friend of mine won a prize and he doesn’t want it. The prize consisted of a Wataniya Gold line with some free talk time and a Siemens C30 phone.

Asking price: KD55

Note: You get to choose your gold line number from Wataniya. They have a couple of options and you choose from them. Gold line will have 4 3 identical numbers next to each other for example 9125550.

Well maybe not famous but my picture is in like two newspapers today. The pictures are from the KREA event and show me accepting one of the awards.

I will be signing autographs at Virgin Megastore tonight from 6-7PM and you can also have your picture taken with me for a small fee 😀

Good thing its U2 again and not a band I care about or else I would have had to shell out moocho bucks on another video iPod. [Link]

I just got my Body Groom today from U Shop We Ship. It arrived to my mailbox in the States on the 2nd and it got delivered to me today in Kuwait which is the 6th. Thats 4 days to get from the US to Kuwait but it also included a Sunday which is a day off, so its usually should take 3 days.

I am very satisfied so far. The most impressive part is the fact that I paid for my package using Knet while the package was in the US. This also got me a 2% discount which is not much but better then no discount. My MacBook still hasn’t shipped from Amazon since they still don’t have it in stock but I just changed the shipping address to U Shop We Ship. The reason for that is USWS can clear my laptop from customs AND I can pay them the customs fee online with my Knet card. Thats very convenient and I love it. I am now going to start using USWS as my primary US mailbox and keep Aramex as secondary for my magazines. [Link]

FYI: Package arrived today morning at 10AM to Kuwait according to the tracking info. Delivery guy dropped it at my office around 12:30PM.. 2 and a half hours later. Thats something not possible with Aramex.

Really funny commercials for the Star Trek 2.0 show on the videogaming channel, G4TV. [Link]

So my friend calls me up now tells me I should watch the movie The Omen at midnight. Sounds like a good plan.

I hate peeling mango so I usually have someone peel it for me and cut it up and give me it in a bowl. Nat was in the shower and I really felt like mango so I decided to try peeling it myself. Not as easy as I thought. The first mango I peeled turned into mango juice. The second faired better but still mostly juice.

I should have fucking googled for instructions.

Someone just emailed me this and I had never seen it before. Two guys rapping about meat in Arabic, its supposed to be a spoof but I think its ones of the best Arabic rap songs I have heard. [Video]

update: OK check out these guys also, they are pretty funny too:

I was filling out an inquiry form on alsayer.org trying to find out when they will be getting the Toyota FJ and there is a mandatory question asking me which nationality I was. What kind of question is that in this day of age? Why do they want to know where I am from? Will I get better or worse service if I answer I am from Uganda? What would the best answer be, USA or Kuwait? I am betting USA and thats what I put. [Link]

update: Alsayer have replied back:

Dear Mark,

This question is purely for analysis reasons, and we apologise if was misunderstood. Alsayer group is a privately owned business and we have genuine respect for all nationalities. However, ethnic studies in marketing is anywhere in the world including the USA. And we believe this is normal in multi ethnic societies. Asking the question doesn’t mean a racist. It is a pure and simple marketing question taken out of context.

Thank You
