2:48AM - Entertaining Kuwait since 2003

I like Campaign. It comes out every two weeks week, its free, it gets delivered right to my desk and best of all its actually informative. [Link]

Although I have recently lost a lot of weight I am now afraid I will be gaining it all again with my new chocolate bar craving. I am having atleast 6 chocolate bars a day and from what I am being told, its not helping my diet. So since I am attached to the habbit of eating chocolate bars I decided to get granola bars instead from Sultan Center and hopefully I am going to get attached to them. These bars are supposed to be healthy and won’t cause me to gain weight. I got the Apple Crisp flavor by Nature Valley but I haven’t tried it yet, I hope it tastes good, or at least decent..

Update: I just tried a bar and it tastes like wood. Actually I think wood tastes better. Need to try another brand like Kudos or something, they had a chocolate chip version.

Found this pretty cool daring Playboy ad on Adrants. The more you zoom out the more it looks like you know what…

Fasttelco is now also blocking BoingBoing. Qualitynet also haven’t removed BoingBoing from their block list even after all the emails and phonecalls. Sucks.

Update: You can now visit BoingBoing by just going to mark248am1.wpenginepowered.com/bb

Umm.. is Crunch banned in Kuwait by any chance? Its my favorite chocolate and I have been looking for it for a few months now but no supermarket seems to have it. Anyone know of a Crunch dealer?

Where are my keys? [Link]

Ever wondered how much influence Arabic words have in the English language? [Link]

Who would you rather have overseeing operations at U.S. ports?
(a) Arab-based ports company
(b) U.S.-based mafia

Its funny until you realize it isn’t a joke.. [Link]

Interesting, it never occurred to me that it stood for something.. [Link]

I don’t know how old this is but a friend of mine at work just showed me it. Give Stewie from Family Guy a command and he will obey. My favorite is “kill someone” and “fart”. [Link]

Starting today I am back at work. I had to cut my ten day vacation short because I am needed back at the office. I wouldn’t call it a vacation actually, it was more like being under house arrest. I couldn’t leave the house and I could sleep late or wake up late because I had to take care of Geo (my dog). Thursday his cast will come off hopefully. For now, it feels good being back at work.

So I was at Virgin earlier and the section in the back where Nissan used to be is now closed off and there is a Ferrari Formula 1 car on display there. If anyone is interested that is.

My Qualitynet DSL account expires next month and so I was just checking their website to see if they have any new offers because last year when I signed up they had a double your bandwidth offer. So I am checking to see how much 512KB will cost me this time around and to my surprise its KD100 cheaper. Last year if you signed up for 1 year of 256KB they would double the bandwidth to 512KB. I paid KD380 then. This time around I don’t see a double your bandwidth offer but a 512KB connection now costs KD280. The sad thing is 1MB is still KD560 a year which is double the price, maybe my sister who lives next door and steals uses my internet will pitch in for a 1MB (hint hint Rampurple). [Link]

When I was in university I was a big X-Files fan and while flipping through some old files I found a picture of a painting I had done on my dorm room wall. If you look closely you can see Mulder shooting a runaway alien…

Update: Cool found more pictures of my first dorm room.. [Picture 1] [Picture 2]

Chewbacca from StarWars has a weblog! [Link]
