of course i don’t think anyone would do that here in kuwait , since it seem like everyone should the name pool in the family and try not to go out of it
most are named on his father father name or his mother father name , same goes for female names
i’m not out of that tradition
but in the USA , my god they use some truly geeky names
for example we have Optimus Prime , who serve in the national guard
and now we have Firiona Vie , named after a character from sony online game Everquest
what geeky name would you want to name your child ?

well , i love google ( duh ? ) i did write two post before about it
first post about google
more from google
what i like best about it is the API , and how people keep on building stuff using it
like
TouchGraph a site that draw a graph for your site and show you who link to you (using google )
well , now there is a new google tool on the block , and thats montage-a-google
it search for picture about a keyword you enter and makes it a nice moasic painting
its nice looking , right ?

Well, everyone was bombarded with ads about the Arabic version of the Apprentice
With Mohammed Ali Alabbar, I’m sure a lot would say who? Since the original version in American is hosted by Donald Trump ranking 205 of the richest men on earth with 2.5 billion
I have seen some episode of the Apprentice , and I think that the thing that pull people to watch is that the host is known , not only is he a billionaire , he is a famous one , why couldn’t they do the same with the Arabic version .
not only the guy isn’t rich ( which in the end how people know you made it in business ) but he was for the longest time of his age a government worker , and in every place , the government isn’t the best place for business minds
They could have gone with people who are self made , and forbs list is full of them
Like Mohamed A Al-Bahar , Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Alsaud , Saleh Kamel or Khalaf Al Habtoor
You know, having made it big make you more believable to the people, ask you self this
Who would you take for stock advice, me or Jassim Al-Bahar.

yes today at 8 Pm local time kuwait national soccer team play Uzbekistan to try and reach world cup 2006 .
Today is very important for the national team , if they win they increase thier chance to go on and reach 2006 world cup in germany
If they lose , the golden chance is lost , and it would another to point to add to the shame and faliure list of the
Kuwait football Association
good luck Al-Azraq ( الازرق ) , hopefully i can come and take some picture for you people to watch

new show on NPC and coming to One TV ( on nile sat )
The Contender
the show is hosted by Sly and Sugar Ray Leonard
its a show about boxing , it has 12 young boxer all trying to get to the final and win a 1,000,000 dollar prize and a change to face the title holder , and in each episode 2 fighters fight for who stay on the show
till now i saw 3 episodes , with the forth just out on the USA and i’m going to watch it soon
one thing that intersted me in the show is that it has 2 boxer who are of Lebanese descent
Ahmad ” baby face ” khaddour and Tarick ” Arabian Prince ” Salmaci
of course i saw 3 episode , i’m not going to spoil them for you ( its hard not to ) but if you ask me , the show is nice and fun if you enjoy staged boxing
of coruse try not to follow news about the show till you watch episode 4 , since there is a news story that would spoil the episode for you
