Limbaugh’s website sells “Club Gitmo” T-shirts

gitmotshirts_300Leave it to the conservatives to make profit and find humor out of human rights abuses and torture. Rush Limbaugh’s website now sells these T-shirts that boasts “Club Gitmo: When America Was Safe” on them with a graphic that depicts “water” and “board.” How low can they stoop? Only Rush Limbaugh and his fans would find such atrocities funny. How would America be safer by the torture of people in a prison in another country? What fascists! These lofty conservative Republicans have been sitting still in their little suburban domains for too long, they need to take a trip, catch a glimpse of the world.

Kuwait Crime: Witch with wine…

Suspicious tenants: A Kuwaiti man was shocked on learning that his tenant, a compatriot woman who was living with her British friend, was brewing liquor and practicing sorcery, reports Al-Anba daily. 
The Kuwaiti landlord noticed water leaking from the ceiling of his house and was told that the pipe in the upper floor needs to be changed. As the upper floor house was closed for two weeks, he got the door broke open following which he found a barrel of brew and sorcery tools. 
The landlord also made the discovery that the woman had lied to him about her poor Arabic knowledge. She, however, vacated the house in exchange of a promise that the landlord won’t file a complaint against her.

I didn’t get the memo, is the witch hunt still on? Are you going to repeat the Salem witch trials? Salmiya witch trials? Get with the program and stop the binge on Harry Potter. Really? She was arrested because she has witch tools? You’re all tools! Oooo, magic!

What a great time to listen to Anggun’s “Snow On The Sahara.”

I keep wondering if this will ever reach Kuwait. I have experienced hard hailing here, but never snowflakes. And as we near the next Ice Age because of the affects of global warming, it is not as unlikely to see snowfall as it used to be. It’s not like it will happen now, but it’s not far-fetched. According to wikipedia: “planar crystals (thin and flat) grow in air between 0 °C (32 °F) and −3 °C (27 °F),” which are not unfathomable numbers. So, we might see it.
