However, I sense a truly raging hatred coming from you that I find worrying… for you! Seriously mate, this can’t be healthy for you.. so maybe you should consider moving to any other place that doesn’t affect you so negatively. Maybe then you’ll find the peace and calm that seem to be lacking in your life here.

Cheers

“The discovery of oil in the Persian Gulf region quickly changed things.
The British-American-owned Kuwait Oil Company was granted a concession for oil exploration in 1934, and oil was discovered four years later on the eve of World War II. The development of Kuwait’s oil fields did not begin in earnest until after the war, and when export finally began in 1946, the resulting economic boom transformed Kuwait almost overnight.”

i also suggest clear transparency and disclaimers as needed within or at the end of any relevant post.

i’m not a frequent reader but use ‘netvibes’ to follow your feed in case there’s anything that strikes my fancy. probably one in every thirty of your posts registers as such.

keep up the good work and good luck.

He’ll probably try to come back at us with more bad language. Again, ignore him..

I don’t care really care if your great grandfather was some amazing sailor that traded pearls for bread with some indian maharajahs that also hired his daughter as a maid for their palace.

Like it or not oil, the single most powerful force of prosperity in the whole existence of this country, was not discovered by Kuwaitis. Sorry but that’s a historical FACT that tramples all other rubbish Kuwaiti history.

Mark,
You should delete Holla’s Comments to comply with the rules.

As relates to the post: Mark, you do a fantastic job. I’ll admit that there were times during which I thought you were catering your comments towards those who gave you free samples. Those times, however, are VERY few and far between. 99 percent of the time, I have no doubt that you are doing us a fine service. As Abdullah noted, a good customer is one who lets you know what they really think of your goods or services, good or bad. I mean, people don’t email the reviewers on cnet.com and say “If you don’t like it, then don’t buy it.” That isn’t the point. The point is to let others know what you thought of it. It’s one opinion among hundreds of thousands. The only difference is you publish yours on a blog.

Bravo, and keep up the good work.

The hard fact is that this country was built by the blood, sweat and tears of EXPATS. They have just as much right to be here and complain as the lazy kuwaiti cunt that collects his virtual welfare check from his rubbish 7ukkuma job.
