A couple of my friends went jet skiing on Thursday at one of the beaches along Gulf Street. You’ll find a few places along the coast near Kuwait Towers and the 24 hours McDonalds that provide skis rental. The rates are 15 KD for 30 minutes and 25 KD for 1 hour. Unfortunately I couldn’t join them as I’m still recovering from that fucking viral cold.
I was at Lulu during the weekend and came across an art exhibition on the first floor, where there used to be a perfume shop. The gallery was organized by ‘Friends of Kannur’; FOKE and unfortunately one of the ‘Fokers’ (is that how you call a member?) informed me that it was the last day of the show so it wasn’t much use telling my friends about it since it was too late.
They had a decent number of paintings displayed and most of them were in the 50-100 KD range and some of them looked really good like this nightmarish creation 
Also on display was a collection of miniature art on rice grains, lentils and beans. You had to use a magnifying glass to appreciate all the fine details. I hope they organize exhibitions like this on a regular basis.
The number of Indian associations in Kuwait seems to be increasing and thats a good sign. People will have a wide choice of cultural clubs to join or maybe even find that their college alumni has a branch here! The Indian Embassy in Kuwait requires that each association register themselves with the Embassy along with details of the office bearers and signatures of all the members. They’ve got an updated list on their website and you can download it [here]
Theres another list from Konkani World.com but it looks like they haven’t updated it in a while. [link]
My friend BVG and I had just completed a ‘grueling’ 4 hour examination today and I suggested we go shoot some lead at the shooting range. It had been a while since my last visit and I’m happy to report that I still suck as much as last time 
The 9mm automatic pistol has become like a favorite firearm for me since I like the way it nestles in my palm and the recoil is almost nil when compared to a .45. We payed 6 KD each for a round with the 9mm. One round gets you two clips and each clip contains 10 bullets so thats like 300 fils per bullet. Shooting at the range can be quite addictive and during the last visit I think my friends and I spent quite a bit of money trying out various weapons. Its good for the occasional treat when you’ve got the ‘I fucking need to shoot something‘ feeling 
To get to the shooting range, go past 350 Mall on 6th Ring Road and then take the exit marked ‘Hunting and Equestrian Club’, once you reach that road go past the hunting club and you’ll come up to a large building, thats Mayadeen a.k.a Shooting Range. You’ll have to submit your civil ID to the security personnel in the lobby and then select what weapons you want to shoot with at the counter. Rifles and pistols are in different ranges.

I’ll be moving to a new domain as soon as I finish up the final touches on my blog and photography pages. Hope to see you on the new site.
I came across this site the other day and I think its rather cool. Theres a lot of really cool effects you can use to create trippy wallpapers. Once you’re done making an image you can save it and download the JPEG file. Check out some of the pictures in the gallery.

Thanks JJ!
I was following the news on the latest installment of the Transformers movie and I just don’t understand the hype about the replacement for Megan Fox, Ms. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Maybe my tastes are different but shes not hot (although shes a Victoria’s Secret model) You wanna know who I think is HOT? Lucy Pinder! This buxom gal reminds me of Kelly Brook (one of my favorites from the 90s)
Maybe I’m getting old but c’mon you have to admit that shes smoking, although she wouldn’t be a great choice in a Sci Fi movie coz running from alien robots with those ‘assets’ could be a little difficult. Click on ahead for more ‘hotness’ and complete the opinion poll.
Cochin is not a very familiar place for me as my family is settled in Trivandrum but since my wife is based in Cochin we visit this city every now and then. Over the past couple of visits I’ve gone to some of the popular tourist locations but I was wondering if there are any night clubs or lounge bars that I could visit this time.
I’ve heard about this lounge bar called ‘Thaandav’ but no one I know has been there so if any Cochin guys are reading this I’d appreciate some feedback from you. Or if you could recommend some other places I’d be more than happy to try them out and include it in my blog.
Here are the links to my last visit to Cochin
