Leave a comment

Some of you may have heard of it before , some may not
Anyway , Flugtag is Flying Day in German

so Red bull is running the first flugtag in Kuwait this is the offical Page
it will be on 02 November 2007 , which is a friday
and seem like there is 3 teams with bloggers on safat in it ( as far as i know )

First we have team macholic( not the official team name )
the expert team ( or as they claim )

second we have the Net Team ! or team Kkuwaiti( not the official team name )

then the third team is patrick team which i have no idea whats the name is
Edit : the team name is The Phoenix ( for some reason didn’t notice that in the link … )

who i think will do better ?
I think macholic may get a bit then the firmware will be updated and it will brick ! ( ZING ! :p )
Net Team will have the fancier site
and pat team will have prettier picture on the the wing

if you want to view video’s on Youtube about that sport check this link

hopefully I’ll be able to shoot that event and get couple video up for Kuwait red bull flugtag

well today i read the news that Robert Jordan has died
its sad in two ways , one he is a famous Fantasy writer best know for writing Wheel of time
Second , he died without finishing his series

Which is someone thing everyone of us should always think of , what if i didn’t finish what i wanted to do in my life
one of the things that i keep thinking off ( and not doing anything that i want to do ,, oh how i waste time )

Rants

hmm is that a hint ?

I just found out that a friend changed his phone number and didn’t sms me or call with new phone number ?
so is it

A) He doesn’t want to talk to me anymore

B) I’m of less importance to him and I’m low on list of people to tell about new number

C) He is just absent minded

It may sound shocking to some , but again i find bad reporting

So i was checking Aljareda ( one of the new newspapers in kuwait ) and noticed this

now for you none arabic readers i’ll try to explain

they are talking about who do what on the Aircraft Carrier USS Enterprise , so they writing the shirt code ( what each shirt stand for ) and they the words in square are
” the reds shirt ” & ” the Red shirts ”

Of course i didn’t want to say they made a mistake without checking it first , so i went and searched the net
and got this report by CNN [link]

which showed that there isn’t 2 red shirt 😛 and that one of the description they wrote match the green shirt ( a color that wasn’t used on that list they printed ) and sadly red and green isn’t just 1 letter in Arabic , so it is not that easy of a mistake
