Chinese airlines are recruiting airline attendants 'with martial arts skills' in their attempt to make planes more secure...
Ernesto is heading to the Gulf Coast...
It's really hot in this country..
========
Enjoy Kibbeh, kufta, lamb shanks and any other sheep meat dish? Live in Kuwait?
PETA wants your attention...you've seen the ads right?
Though PETA often shoot themselves in the foot with the melodrama..it is important to realise that the inhumane transport conditions that sheep endure are not only ethically unnacceptable but are pretty unhealthy for anyone eating the meat..not only is it swimming in filth but the torture endured under these conditions releases carcinogenic chemicals into the meat which are then transferred to us...just a thought to take with us to the dining table...
after watching this video, I for one am finally saying no to the only meat I still eat...
========
Iran, Iran, Iran...Can't you just hear the Darth Vader theme playing everytime you read the news? I don't even feel like linking to any of the scare-mongering, the drama and the obsession preparing us for the next front of the War On Whateverism...you know it already..
========
And in news that I like to hear...the Buffy goes to yet another interesting show...The first year the prize for most underappreciated tv show went to The Wire (get out and get it if you haven't seen it, now)...and the next year it went to the great Veronica Mars and this year the Buffy goes to....Battlestar Galactica...Yup it's a good show...it ain't perfect, but it is bittersweet and haunting at times and just good ol' sci fi adventure at others...

It would be embarrassingly funny if someone got their bum kicked by a stewardess XD

I just watched the video about the animals. It's painful to watch them being tortured like that :(

Hi Guys..
Fuzzy, yeah The Wire season three is out on dvd just now I think...
I loved the first season..just make some time to really focus on it...and the second is pretty great too. Let me know if you like it...

Nibaq, hi, yeah really looking forward to them..but I haven't seen all of the second season of Mars yet...so I still have good watching left to do..

3baid, Kung Fu flight attendants- funny and awsome i think...
and the video, just awful...Ghandi said “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated”..I have to agree on that point..

I dont visit this site much and now the one time I come, u say stuff to make me turn vegan.

Battlestar Galactica is crap BTW. Any program that doesnt include beautiful housewives killing their husbands, or plane crash survivors lost on a creepy island in the middle of snowball sea is not entertainment ;-)

Jassim said...

that is "'snowball globe'" sea i meant...ya3ny you have to watch the program to catch the reference.

Welcome to the blog Jassim...sorry to make you lose your appetite for dead animals...and hey, houswives and lost are good, but galactica has a place up there, in it's own little way..
