I am officially a certified communications device user! What does that mean? Well that means I took the course on how to properly use a VHF/UHF communication device and took the required test. I passed that test and my paperwork went to the Ministry of Communication who then transfered them to the Ministry […]

You can download iAlertU for free, and you don’t really need a remote. It just looks way cooler, and is better than using a password.

A while back, before Ramadan actually, I signed up for a course at the Kuwait Amateur Radio Society to learn how to use and operate a VHF/UHF radio in order to get tested and obtain a government issued license to operate such a device. “Why?” you might ask! Well I have an ICOM IC-V8000 that […]

Q8showroom.com is now launched although I think its still in trial stage since there are a lot of things that aren’t working right or not working at all. Some of the things also feel like they’ve just been ripped off from Q8car like the drop down list for the car models. In Q8car they have […]

Some of you might have known that there was a gathering last night at the Al-Rawtha Police Station in order to go against the accusations that have been made against those who have been rallying at the last Anti-Segregation Rally. The people who have attended last night showed their support against those narrow minded accusers […]

Here is the play list the show the video clips I recorded during the Anti-Segregation Rally! Please forgive me if you don’t like the way the clips were recorded or the way I had to split them up in different files to upload them! Keep in mind I am merely an amature!

Last night I attended the Anti-Segregation Rally that was held at the head quarters of the ًWomen Cultural Social Society located in Khaldiya and I have to admit that when I got there at 5:45 I didn’t think that there were a lot of people there for a meeting that was going to start at […]

Here is a playlist of both the recital at the AWARE Center, and the at the Al-Babtain Library! There were some video clips from the Al-Babtain Library that were too big to upload to YouTube […]

A friend sent me a link to Yamli, a website which does a bunch of things my two favorite being:

2) You can type […]

I’m finally getting around to posting this; I wrote part of it the night I returned from The Axis of Evil show last Monday, I just haven’t been able to post anything about it due to the immense feeling of joy I’ve been experiencing. Hell, joy’s an understatement, I just can’t think of any […]

I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately. I just can’t seem to sleep at night. And its really starting to get to me. Anyway, I came into work the other way and I fell asleep. I could feel it coming and I couldn’t stop it. I can never stop it. All I can do is try […]

Wooohoo! It’s Thursday bitches!!!!! I feel really good today. Even though I probably shouldn’t because somebody that works here just passed away yesterday. Allah yer7ama. And what’s really bad about it is what I thought when I first heard; “I wonder if they’ll give me his office”. I know, I know, I’m bad. But it […]

Soooooooooo….. they hired two new people. I told you that I met one of them previously. Anyway, it turns out that there are two. Just what we need in this division, more Indian people.

Welcome back children! Welcome back to your retarded 8-3 (or 9-5) workdays, for which you will be paid the same meager amount of money that you were paid during ramadan when you were working half the time and doing the same shit. What a pleasure it is to be back, isn’t it?
I don’t completely hate […]
