No blogs until Friday night, as I am on the weekend break and my internet service has run out at home. And I ain't paying for it, only to fly fly away to London in 7 days. So use the links, read and become knowledgable, more so that you already are, of course.

Oh and on the execution front, Saudi Arabia also beheaded, via the sword, two guys caught trafficking drugs into the country. Here's a question: Why the hell would you try it if you knew that their punishment was the business end of a sword? And yes, it was public.

Sheesh.

Be safe, take care of one another.

Looking for something to do this weekend? Well why not fly over to Kuwait and take part, as a member of the audience, in the first public hanging of 2005? Tha's right, a good ole fashioned public hanging. I wouldn't have believed it either, but it was in the paper. That is some messed up shite.

Almost done my exam marking. Today, one of the bonus questions on the bio exam, was asking what Ms. Shannon's last name. For those of you who don't know, all the teachers over here are known by their first names, Mr. Jay, Mr. Richard, etc. Just a cultural thing. When everyone marries their cousin ( I am not kidding, I swear this is true) last names kinda become irrelevant. Anyway, this is a bonus question, which I was told by the bio teacher that all the kids were gonna get right as long as they put something down. So of course the kids are freaking out, "What's Ms. Shannon's last name? Oh Allah, save me!" etc etc. So I'm a helpful, if a little twsited kinda guy, so I lean down and quietly whisper in their ears, "Doherty. Shannon Doherty."

Beverly Hills 90210 anyone? Cross, don't play dumb. Man, I'm a funny guy. Her last name isn't Doherty of course, but they half of them think it is now. Hee hee.

And the days are sloooooowly trickling into the vacation, but I think the next week might be a little slow, especially because I should have most of my work done by the end of the week. But it'll pass. Not too much else to say, my dog is happy and that makes me happy. So hope this finds you well, I will be answering my backlog of emails sometime over the next few days. Take care, out.
