Bus Children ?

July 1, 2008

So while reading Awan daily newspaper

I found this picture

bushchildren

SO what the hell is bus children ? are they children born on bus’s ? :p
never knew we had that many in the first place

and don’t say it mean children riding on the bus , because that has no logic , why they have a gate for that ? can’t they walk ? ( oh wait they are walking ) its not logical anyway ( both as a gate for children riding a bus and children born on one )

Kuwait racketeering

June 23, 2008

Back to gambling it seem
It make me feel sad that there is no anti-Racketeering Laws in Kuwait

Time and time again it show that companies and even couple of Government agency are involved in Racketeering activities

I’ll Give one example , a recent one that happened to me , I ordered couple of Books from Amazon ( i couldn’t find them in Kuwait ) so when they reached the airport some Custom guy Take notice of them , there is nothing wrong with them , hell no women picture is on any of the books and they aren’t religious

But then get transferred to the ministry of Information , now you may say so what ? you don’t have anything to worry about ,, well wrong
Because since they transferred it to the MOI , now i have to pay Fee’s for using Kuwait Airport ( i wouldn’t pay them if they didn’t transfer them )
and this from the e-mail i got

# Clearance charges
# Delivery order stamp
# Bayan
# Bank Commission
# Global and Stamp
# Custom Dues
# Airport charges

And again with the unexplainable Bayan fee , what in god name is that crap

I wouldn’t have any problem if everyone payed all the above crap , but its not all of us , the shipment before it ( a week before it ) which had books also ,passed and i didn’t have to pay all that extra stuff ( its around 20+ they didn’t give me an estimate yes )
which is another problem , because the part of the order is worth 70 dollars , so i would find it really hard to pay same the value of the order for fees

So Stuff like new signs make me uneasy really
What would stop the police from announcing a speed of 70 and then catching everyone unaware and tell him he was speeding ? ( not like they aren’t doing it without it , but a good tool for them )

Bush happy about our Democracy !

June 14, 2008

From President Bush’s speech Friday to a meeting of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in Paris

Since 2001, the freedom movement has been advancing in the Middle East. Kuwait has had elections in which women were allowed to vote and hold office for the first time

for me , thats bad omen , anything bush says is good ,turn sour fast
look what he said about Iraq

Its funny that Bush is very very happy with our democracy , when its people are sad with it , just to show you how much they understand local democracy :p
