One box was noticed by a concerned citizen, who reported the "suspicious package" to local authorities. Haz-mat Units and a Bomb Squad were called out to investigate, but were cleared of not having anything dangerous in them. One of the girls turned herself in. Authorities plan to press criminal charges, which some have viewed as too harsh. poor girls the police couldnt take the joke 5 teenage girls, aged between 16-17, created 17 question mark boxes from Super Mario Brothers with info gleaned from website Qwantz.com and placed them in public places around the town of Ravenna, Ohio as a joke.

Alcohol Does exist by Containers in Kuwait So its nothing new, But nothing beats popping into the local hotel on a hot afternoon for a pint of brewski! Trust me, it will be legalised oneday as Kuwait has to Improve its Tourism strategy. Yes it does! Think of the posh malls widely spread all over the country, We have tooo many shops but hardly any shoppers, Look at the Airport for the love of god, it looks like a school yard during holiday, WHAT I MEAN IS Millions of Dinars are spent but nothing is earned back in Profit! The problem is the government is to slow to realise that ALCOHOL = A MASSIVE FINANCIAL SUCCESS, unclear? Look at UAE and its successful STEPS it took. All I can advice the drinkers, Enjoy the weekend in Jomireh Beach, Ritz Carlton has a really cold pint of weise beer! Regards Guys, Take it easy, Am as thirsty as the rest of you.

It has been reported the program was interrupted to announce the National Assembly had approved a proposal to write off outstanding loans of citizens. However, after a short time the program was interrupted again to say the announcement was an April Fool’s joke. Al-Malek told the Al-Seyassah daily the Kuwait TV is official media and persons should distance themselves from making illegal use of government media. ‘April fool’ pranksters under probe: Undersecretary of the Ministry of Information Sheikh Faisal Al-Malek has referred the cast of the TV program ‘Baitak’ for interrogation, reports Al-Anba daily.
