Beautiful Ladies of Kuwait Airways

Only an airline that is out of touch would use pictures of stewardesses from the 1970s to convince people to fly with them. Of course the planes are from the 1970s too. In fact, the staff is probably the same from the 1970s as well. It is amazing they can still fly - they are still flying aren't they?

Run for Cover

Festivities have been dampened in Kuwait - is it due to support against the butcher in Syria, support for the conservative elements in Parliament or because we all knew it would rain anyway?

Google and iPhone Tracking - Evil

What has happened to Google - it was a company that wanted to change the world for the better. It is strange as when I read this article on the same page was an ad promoting clandestine careers with the CIA

Football - The Only Game

Kuwait has a big coming up on the 29th - just after National and Liberation Day. Hopefully, it will be an inspired match against a formidable opponent - what a way to end the holidays. If I could just get an increase in my allowances, what a celebration it would be!

Kuwait Traffic Madness

Where did all of the traffic come from . I was just on the Gulf Road and it is madness as was the 5th ring road, the 6th ring road and 30? Even the exits were bumper to bumper. If the weather was warmer I could understand perhaps, but this is just going to get worse. If you want to help tweet here

Valentines Day - What is She Getting You?

Guys I hope you have a modern woman who know that Valentines Day is for both of you. I wonder what she will be giving you this year? If she is madly in love with you, maybe she will allow you to have a little fun when she is not around.

Gold for Men

If you think it is a bit too extravagant to wear a gold watch or you not Italian so do not like to wear a gold chain, how about a beautiful tie interspersed with flakes of gold 

Canali is on to something here - run to their nearest store before the price goes up!

The 99 - Our Super Heroes

I was at 360 the other night and walked by a poster for "the 99". I was intrigued and checked it out and it is amazing. Somebody is finally talking about us, with us and for us and it is created by one of us - check it out http://www.facebook.com/THE99FanPage

Cartier Again - More Customers than Staff

What has happened post the election - are the winners celebrating or the losers spending to comfort themselves. Salhiya complex is busy busy busy. In fact, I went into Cartier to see what was going on as there were so many people inside. And they were buying! Hmmm, I think a new mens watch would do the trick - like the 21 Chronoscaph - just beautiful.

Some Things Never Change

The election results are in and....we have no significant change. It is disappointing that we have elected no women to share their perspectives. Kuwait stays as it is - no boom, no bust, just floating along with the current. Kuwait has such great potential - it is a stable place, very wealthy, with some very smart people but in a difficult neighborhood. Are we afraid of the future? This parliament does not represent the Kuwait I kmow and love. Maybe I do not know the real Kuwait. Maybe it is time for something different?
