Oldies: Dialup Connection
14 FebDo you recognize this amazing sound?
Not a very long time ago most of us who were interested in the internet had only one choice and that is using a “Dial Up” connection. Ofcourse looking back at it right now makes it so stupid, but we didn’t have a better option and we were VERY happy with that option. I remember our parents were very against it at that time thinking its a very ineligible source of information, well I don’t blame them it was new to everyone, but to us it was a major source of ENTERTAINMENT and nothing close to learning :P
I remember on weekends it was one of the most fun things to look forward to! We started by using a couple of chatting programs like mIRC, ICQ and MSN, there was also another voice call chat program that I forgot what it’s called. We used to sit for hours and hours just chatting and wasting time. Honestly, I didn’t use to google anything, that was boring at that time :P
I also remember how frustrating it was when your dialup card finishes or you get disconnected and can’t connect again! we used to spend hours trying to reconnect, eventually give up and go to bed!
Did you use to go to internet cafes? for me I always wanted to, but those places where mostly for guys, so it’s either am going with my brother or not at all! Sometimes I had to go when am outside Kuwait, but I never really liked those places :S
As much as I love the fast internet service that we have today, how convenient it is and that you can access a connection anytime and almost anywhere, as much as I miss the simplicity of the way it was before and how we used to appreciate it :P
So whats your story with the old internet?
The Mystery Behind the 11:11
8 Feb
Its been almost 3 months since I started seeing these numbers frequently (every 2 to 3 days), am not a myth freak or who would believe such things (just because I wouldn’t bother) but I’m interested to read about them, so I did! and I was surprised that a lot of people are going through the same thing. a coincidence? maybe! depends on who you would ask.
I’m a person who looks at the time a lot, so I would probably do that 5-6 times every hour. Living in a house where we have a clock on the wall in almost every room (including the bathroom) made me always aware of the time and it became a habit whether am at home, in the office, or outside checking the time on my mobile. This thing started a couple of months ago when I looked at the time and it was 11:11 and I was like “awwww I should make a wish” so I did! the second time, the third time, then it got a bit weird!
I’m not a person who believes in superstition and actually make it as a rule I live on, but sometimes I get curious, is it really a coincidence? is the universe trying to tell me something? either ways am sure I would never find out and I should probably let it go! but I was like what the hell, lets google it and that’s when I found out that there’s a huge number of people who experience the exact same thing for a very long time! hmmmm
So this post isn’t really about getting to a point or an understanding what it really means, I just wanted to share this with you guys, maybe some of you is facing the same thing, and INCASE anything happened with that number or date, REMEMBER THAT I SAID IT FIRST :P

barbies are evil?
24 Jan
Iran’s morality police are cracking down on the sale of Barbie dolls to protect the public from what they see as pernicious western culture eroding Islamic values, shopkeepers said on Monday.
As the West imposes the toughest ever sanctions on Iran and tensions rise over its nuclear program, inside the country the Barbie ban is part of what the government calls a “soft war” against decadent cultural influences.
“About three weeks ago they (the morality police) came to our shop, asking us to remove all the Barbies,” said a shopkeeper in a toy shop in northern Tehran.
