I had one of those days yesterday when I got back from work and my brain just refused to function. I took a nice two hour nap and didn’t do anything after waking up, the only productive thing that I did was read before going to sleep and that was exciting. Other then that I feel like I wasted my day and I didn’t really accomplish anything.
Whats Left
- Done organizing a majority of the books but a lot of the comics and novel comics left to be organized
- Building the server which has been sitting on the floor for a few weeks now
- Done servicing car but still a few things left to do
- Pack for traveling
Sometimes there are too many things to do that I don’t even know where to start, and that doesn’t include some maintenance and detailing that I want for my bikes since they haven’t moved in a couple of months
This is the Fesler Camaro with 600 bhp with right type of testing done to that supercharged machine. It looks really mean with that black paint job, and I think it sounds pretty good too.
I saw this youtube of Independence Day, this is probably the best speech possible, just before Will Smith goes and kicks some alien butt. This is one of my top 10 entertaining movies which only requires you to sit down and enjoy the movie, I remember seeing it in the theaters back in the late 90s.
Parkour is the other word for extreme running and this is a new Ad released by Nike. A new Ad for their shoes, I don’t know what exactly are the shoes but its one cool ad. No human can do what this robot is doing, but its cool as hell, this ad reminds me of the movie iRobot.

Luckily for me Meshoo has some time on her hands with everything she has had to do with family. I have been preparing my complaint list for a while now, one day at work I got a message saying my blog was being upgraded and she was upgrading it from 2.7 to 2.8.
There are some minor differences, it is a bit cleaner in the back end but everything remains the same except for the image uploading. I have always faced a problem with the flash uploader for WordPress and it just wouldn’t work with Firefox or Chrome, I would have to go to Explorer 6.0 and upload image by image which was time consuming. Luckily this update made the fix so you can upload the traditional way or through the flash uploader, images are managed better and you can access them more easily.
Another small issue was that the categories wasn’t being retrieved correctly, some code was off so the data wasn’t being retrieved correctly. I can safely say now that the categories are fixed you can access them normally, I knew I was annoyed because I constantly used them.
Thanks Meshoo!
Ken Block is renowned for his driving skills and this time around its not different. Its amazing what he does with this car, he barely fits it in between construction equipment. If he makes any mistakes that cars is going crumble against those big blocks or construction equipment. Now that is one hell of an advertisement for a product. I want to be the guy shooting the paint ball gun, he is always so damn close to touching the things he is drifting around, just an amazing driver.
Set to the music “Wavesâ€ï»¿ by Camille, you can check out Perrier’s new Ogilvy Paris ad (directed by Frederic Planchon) to try and get you to buy their drink. And if that weren’t enough, below are a few more interesting ad shots for the product.
This pretty much reflects the heat that we face in Kuwait on a daily basis and drinking something cool always feels good. I’m not a big fan of carboneted water but if I do drink it would have to be Perrier, I don’t know why but I always feel so sophisticated drinking it, maybe its the bottle.
I think this, a promotion for A&E’s MC Hammer reality show, is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in a long time. I can’t imagine calmly shopping in a clothing store and then being swamped by dozens of dancers in Hammer pants running and dancing while “U Can’t Touch This” is cranked up on the sound system. I’d rather be RickRolled.
I loved MC Hammer when I was a kid, I don’t think there is anyone who didn’t try to dance to Hammer Time. This is hilarious, I would be laughing my head off to this amazingly choreographed stunt, and look at the old guy pulling those moves.

I’ve have always been a fan of Black Ox from back in the day, and while roaming the vast archives of Vimeo I stumbled upon this fantastic video. I am really amazed how people can put simple videos such as this together, I am one person who lacks the skills to do this but I do enjoy watching it. I prefer the quality of Vimeo movies to that of every other online media such youtube and dailymotion.
At last they have come to launch the Blackberry Service, as of today Wataniya has launched the new Blackberry Service with the pricing plan below. Looks like their tis going to be competition for the Blackberry Subscribers, and our brethren in the Wataniya camp can at last communicate with us through BBM. Now I wonder how many people will be switching over to the BB service who already have Wataniya.
It seems you can easily switch between the plans, you don’t have to stick to one or the other.
Pricing Plan:
- Basic: 9 KD with 1 fils per KD
- Unlimited: 13 KD 10 GB Free
- Unlimited +: 25 KD 10 GB Free & 10 MB Free Roaming
- Update:Prepaid Blackberry Service Available
There is only one conclusion with all this, I’m pretty much a download junkie. I have been downloading all the recent TV shows a consistent pace but sometimes some of them fall off the way side and sometimes I don’t know why but I might not have all the seasons of a show I was following. This is what happens when you migrate your data so much, and over the past couple of years I have had a few major migrations. So this time around I am trying to see which shows that I want to have, I don’t have Entourage so I’m downloading the whole thing, then there are a few shows which I don’t seem to have the seasons even though I remember watching them like Dexter, I have kept Prison Break and Heroes on hold so I can watch it one go. There are a few other odd shows that I want to download like Red Dwarf and MacGuyver, I’m trying to look for some other old school shows. Archiving old shows is another task which has increased my download list. Just one note for those reading the download speeds, this is based from a Server hosted in Europe which we have managed to configure for our downloads and not the speeds in Kuwait, it would be phenomenal if those were the speeds but that isn’t the case.
- Battlestar Galactica Season 4 720p (23.49 GBs)

- Heroes Season 3 720p (27.98 GBs)
- Justice League Complete (16.21 GBs)
- Prison Break Seas 4 720p (24.72 GBs)
- The Spectacular Spiderman Season 1 (2.17 GBs)
It seems ZDistrict has been listed as motorcycle sales company, and went searching through google there was this reference. Now that made me laugh, any motorcycles I do have are for my use only.
Thanks Yousef!
