All “White” Basketball League!

26 Jan 2010  1 Comment

“only players that are natural-born United State citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league.”

“Would you want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?”

The above statements  are a couple of the ridiculous comments Don “Moose” Lewis, a former wrestling promoter, has been quoting as saying when marketing his new league. He refers to how “color” has made it more of “street ball” and that basketball leagues (NBA) have lost their fundamentals.

No more superstars and hall of famers like the above then?

When I went to DHL Arthiya to get my Nexus One. On my way back home I saw a lot of people parked on the side of the street and all where surrounding a man the looked slightly injured. I went on my way and exited 5th ring road via the exit after the bridge. I then saw a car the flipped and rested on the other side of the bridge. This guy was lucky that he didn’t go over at the middle of the bridge onto opposing traffic.

Souq Al-Mubarkiya – سوق المباركية

11 Jan 2010  4 Comments

Yesterday i took my random yearly trip to Souq Al-Mubarkiya, one of the most historic places in Kuwait. I wasnt looking for anything, just a little walk around since the weather was nice and there wasnt much to do last night. It was nice to see some foreigners (europeans/americans) walking around and enjoying a taste of our history. I took some quick snaps of random things with my phone which you can find below…

I saw this canon-like Courvoisier Cognac bottle in a random store with lots of old and vintage stuff. I regretted not buying later actually because it does look pretty cool. I also found some really old wind up record players that still work which was also interesting. Click below to see the rest of the pictures. Continue Reading
