What Grind my Gears

Name calling , Don’t raise your children on it

I notice lately more and more little children ( kindergarden and parly speaking ) who name call people around them

I was shocked one time that a kid , not older than 5 years old who called me many many names , some even a high school student wouldn’t use because i was fat

Not only that , but the boy was FAT , ROUND , and his mother was smiling , as if she is proud of him .

Why kids are learning to name call people ? don’t their families raise them on the fact that name calling isn’t Nice
not only that , but it is in the holy quarn

049.011 يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا يَسْخَرْ قَومٌ مِنْ قَوْمٍ عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونُوا خَيْرًا مِنْهُمْ وَلا نِسَاءٌ مِنْ نِسَاءٍ عَسَى أَنْ يَكُنَّ خَيْرًا مِنْهُنَّ وَلا تَلْمِزُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ وَلا تَنَابَزُوا بِالألْقَابِ بِئْسَ الاسْمُ الْفُسُوقُ بَعْدَ الإيمَانِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَتُبْ فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الظَّالِمُونَ
049.011 O ye who believe! Let not some men among you laugh at others: It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former): Nor let some women laugh at others: It may be that the (latter are better than the (former): Nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames: Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after he has believed: And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong.

Al-Qur’an, 049.011 (Al-Hujraat [The Private Apartments, The Inner Apartments])

Watch your kids , or others will slap them for you

And if you are wondering what happened to the kid i mentioned above ?

Last thing he said was that i eat children , so i look at him and say ” oh yeah you look tasty and i’m hugry come here ”
and he went crying to his mom , who looked at me as if i did some mistake

opera in Germany canceled of fear

Well , the mozard opera Idomeneo was canceld in germany
Because and i quote

fears of Muslim anger could be reinstated

what the problem was ?

that a scene featuring the severed heads of Jesus, Muhammad and Buddha could cause trouble

now people may start to talk that muslims do not like art and such . if art is insult i don’t want it

Now the funny part ? mozard didn’t plan it that way , our prophet peace be upon him wasn’t a part of it !

Mozart’s opera, premiered in 1781, addresses human resistance to making sacrifices to the gods, but the controversial scene is a departure from the original and is the interpretation of the Berlin production’s director, Hans Neuenfels.

So he went out of his way to insult muslims , is that Art i ask ?

What does the MOI hold ?

As i wrote before , my DVD where held for inspection , can’t have children watching dora the explorer

While at the Airport i passed by the MOI office for them to inspect , and check what i saw there held up

books in custody

books in custody

books in custody

Oh boogy boogy ! ” house of Bush ” , ” Truth about angels ” , ” DA vinci code ” very scary stuff ! its not like they are in virgin for years

One other thing
i checked with some friends who have Aramix and they seem to have the same problem , everything is held up and they have to pay more for it
And one freind claim to have called DHL & FedX and they told him the same thing , that there is a new law which they started using that every shipment should be held ( and you get to pay extra for it )

Its not like i need more incentive to stop buying original DVD

Gambling and highway robbery or you could call it airport shipping

Yes its gambling
you order some DVD and you gamble , it either just reach your house and you won , or it got stopped by customs and pay 10 KD ( official charges )

and its highway robbery , one of the payment was 1 KD to the ministry of finance and the bank charge you 2 KD for each payment !!

So i order 2 DVD , and 1 Book , youshopcustomhold call me

anyway i got to the airport , there are two buildings that were not there when i went there last time ( around 1997 ) and they seem to have doubled the paper work
pay a KD here , 3 there , 6 there , then to MOI office in customs , funny thing is i found some stuff there ( i’ll post pictures later)
anyway when i reached customs he tell me the paper says 3 DVD , there is 2 DVD and 1 book , and i nearly blow up in his face
and before i perform an uppercut on him he show me the manager officer , who was kind and understanding , he fliped the book ( most to check if it has some bad stuff mostly ) and stamped my paper and i was free to go

4.5 hours is the total time it took me to take out 2 DVD and 1 book from kuwait airport , if i one day own or run a company , i’m not going to get any stuff from airport , i’ll get a representative
