Prison Break Seasons 1-3 - Review
My review are not long and drawn out, so let’s make this simple. This is the review for all 3 seasons in my short formed frustrated version.
How many bad things can happen to a group of people? Seriously, a few mishaps is fine, but at every turn when something goes wrong, it appears they are [...]
Torrents and Zain
I am on the verge of cancelling my Zain subscription, but I still have a few hangups. Right now, my torrent download speed is up and down, up and down, regardless of what I have my upload set to. So, these are my questions:
Does Zain block the torrent ports thereby decreasing download speed?
Does Wataniya block [...]
Kuwait Ministry of Interior
I have seen a few hits on my blog in the past few days searching for Kuwait KMOI, KMOI, Kuwait Ministry, or some other derivitive. It seems the KMOI is the most common, so here is the link to the page.

Yes, you can search for your traffic violations there and pay them as well, provided [...]
Kuwaiti “Ghost” Workers
I found this article out while searching the internet randomly. You always hear about it, and some of us even know people in this situation, but it appears to be worse then I had ever thought. Getting employment just for benefits and then never showing up? 619 of the last 800 Kuwaiti citizens working private [...]
Oil, Creationism, Bounties, Rape Kits, and More!
These are all what this website (GrizzleBay) have said Palin (currently on the Republican ticket with McCain) have been involved in. The claims have news stories to back them up! I mean SERIOUSLY, making a rape victim pay for their own rape kit? How low do you have to be? If the government of Alaska [...]
Car Bombing in Lebanon. Sheikh Dead.
Just another form of murder. I found it striking there was a car bomb and it wasn’t in Iraq!
BEIRUT, Lebanon (CNN) – A Druze Lebanese sheikh associated with Lebanon’s pro-Syrian Socialist Democratic Party was killed when a car he was riding in exploded near Beirut, according to witnesses and the Lebanese national news agency.
Saleh al-Aridi [...]
Advice: Legal Options?
Looking for some advice here. This is the skinny:
I decided to sell a motorcycle to someone for 1000KD. Verbal agreement. He has paid 500KD of the bike and is in posession of it. The title is still in my name. He has had the bike about 4 months or so, if not longer. Now the [...]
Broken Fast
Yesterday I was actually sick, and today it was an oversight. Not accidentally eating or drinking. It was broken before it started. Grrrrrrr.
Comments With No Content?
Specifically, what is up with the comments from Outcast Girl? No meaningful response, just a link promoting her own site. “Look at me! Click the link and see what I’m about! I have no constructive criticism to offer on YOUR site, but come look at MINE.” This is what I think when I see comments [...]
Sarah Palin: Iraq war “a task that is from God.”
That is just shocking! In the USA, church and state (religion and government) are supposed to be separate. Do you really want someone who could possible run the country (if McCain is unable, killed, dies, etc.) who thinks that the war in Iraq is a task that is from God? The Iraqi’s want a pullout [...]
