I think I am going to get me one of these foofpod ipod sleeves. They look very cozy and snugly, just need to figure out which color goes better with my blue mini.. or maybe it doesn’t have to match.. [Link]

Just yesterday I posted about the end of the Sub Club here in Kuwait but when I went to Sbarro for lunch they gave me their own version! Its only valid at Sbarro, Hardees, KFC and Baskin Robbins.. but the Fashionway branch. Order anything over KD1.200 from these 4 restaurants and they will give you a sticker. After 4 stickers you get your choice of either a Hardees or KFC combo for free! Offer valid till August 10th.

It’s official now here in Kuwait also. No more Sub Club, no more stamps. When I asked the guy why they stopped them he told me because some kids in the States made copies and sold them on eBay. I was surprised to know the guy knew the full story. Now I have a whole bunch of Subway cards that are full and I can’t use them. SUCKS!

At various subway stations in Korea, they often they are decorated at different times of the year with school art projects. Fire safety, future jobs, home life, technology, and so on. The theme of this one appears to be “Fuck Japan!” [Link]

Billy Corgan’s first solo album “TheFutureEmbrace” was released just yesterday yet Billy Corgan also released a full page ad in the Chicago Tribune saying that he wants Smashing Pumpkins to reunite! Smashing Pumpkins are one of my favorite bands ever, the line which I use for 2:48AM “Breathing underwater and living under glass” is actually from one of their songs. So having them reunite again would be one of the coolest things that could happen. [Link]

The other day I posted a link to a site with some cartoon intro’s from the 80’s, the site closed down but I managed to download 4 videos, here they are:

Bionic Six
Denver the Last Dinosaur
Pole Position
Robotech

Ever wanted to know how long can you keep the ketchup in the fridge or when does your Pepsi go bad? This site has a pretty comprehensive list of Food and Household products and how long they last. The most surprising thing is mayonaise, according to the site:

Mayonnaise
Unopened: Indefinitely
Opened: 2 to 3 months from “purchase by” date (After this time, color or flavor may be affected, but product is still generally safe to consume.)

For some reason I though mayonnaise goes bad very quickly, this is why I usually throw out the jar after the first use. Actually, anything that has been in my fridge for more then a week gets thrown out, unless its in the freezer. [Link]

Yesterday I was at Marina Mall and I noticed Dairy Queen at the food court shutdown. I guess it was bound to happen, last time I ate there the bread was old and the burger seemed raw. Then whenever I asked them for a chili dog they kept telling me they were out of it. I hope they open Wendeys instead.

Mercedes-Benz this morning released the first official pictures of the new S-Class, which is due to be shown at this fall’s Frankfurt Auto Show and will go on sale in Europe in the fall. The interior reminds me a lot of the BMW cars while the rear end of the car reminds me of the new Chrysler 300C. At first glance the car looks a bit… strange and off in my opinion. I guess once we get used to the new look it will sink in better. [Link]

Seems like an interesting site, haven’t had time to fully check it though. They recently setup a forum where photographers can share pictures and tips.[Link]

I found this site that has the opening videos of some cool cartoons from the 80’s. There was one cartoon I really used to like but had forgotten its name, turned out it was called Pole Position. Here are some of the videos, a lot more on the site.

Bionic Six
Centurions
Dangermouse
Dennis the Menace
Denver the Last Dinosaur
The Gummi Bears
He-Man
Inspector Gadget
Pole Position
Rainbow Brite
The Real Ghostbusters
More…

Update: Site is now down due to heavy traffic. I downloaded a couple of videos will upload them later if site is still not working.

Saw this Escalade parked outside Marina Mall tonight.

EGM sent a spy, posing as a clueless girlfriend shopping for a videogame system for her boyfriend. She went to the 4 largest video game retailers and started asking them questions like which system is better and what are polygons. Some of the answers by the store clerks are a good laugh.[Link]
