This is such a cool bag for traveling short distances.. especially when I come to kuwait and want to travel light but still want my gadgets with me.

The bag you see above is one of many bags they have and this one is priced at a very fair price in my opinion, $69.

I am looking forward to flying Wataniya airways tomorrow and to see sheikh Sa’ad terminal.

Few days ago I was hanging out at my friend’s apartment and he was opening old boxes off all sort of things that he collects (he collects any and everything!!) so he pulls out few editions of time magazine. one of them was the last day of desert storm(Feb 27th 1991)! among other magazines. here are some of the pictures. I think HJ has done great job collecting what he collected… here is list of few things he collected over the years:

• Post cards (he has MANY !!)
• Movie tickets that he attended since 1992.
• Pictures… he has boxes and boxes of those
• Magazine & newspapers (with important events)
• Magnets
• Invitation letters..
• More, more and alot more!

some of those magazines are dated back to 1945! look at the one below

I asked HJ if it’s ok to post about his collectables and he agreed… so thanks in advance ;)

HJ showed me this few weeks ago and the other day I was on the plane flying back to bahrain and I read that in the gulf air magazine. really now ?? the gulf nations preferred casino? and they also have arabic and indian food… you know what.. I kind like the idea of machboos and Texas Hold ‘Em lol

Got to give it to the pilot.. good job! yet scary !

Ok, apparently this is just a commercial that advertise that the airline, service or whatever takes you right to where you want to go.

(i’m at work with 2 hours of sleep) not loving it.

What i’m wonder is how people “especially” in the US and Europe are handling that. I remember when I first moved to the states back in 2001 I used to pay something around $25 to fill my car tank, and 5 years after than in 2006 I filled the same damn car with the same gas grade for $55, that’s 2.2 times the price in just 5 years or less! According to today’s gas prices (where oil is trading at $143) it would cost me a little more than $70 to fill the tank. oh and it’s not an SUV, it’s the BMW 325Ci.

This high oil prices might be good to some economies such as the members of OPEC, but is it really fair for the rest of the economies and consumers?

Now the story behind the fish..

in 2006.. specifically May .. I went on a graduation trip around the state of Florida with my parents; one of the stops was Key West (my favorite city in Florida) and as a part of key west’s activities we went deep sea fishing. so during the fishing trip.. I ended up catching this fish! it’s an Amber Jack.. the damn thing weighs 55 LB and it’s about 53″ tall! it took me 45 minutes to pull it out of the water so I wasn’t going to throw it back.. I asked them to preserve it for me and ship it to Kuwait.. but due to unforeseen circumstances the fish took only 2 years to arrive in Kuwait ! and i’m happy to it it now !
