With the release of Die Hard 4 and people saying how 24 is better it got me thinking who would win in a fight. John McLane or Jack Bauer. Both have single handedly taken down terrorist groups and saved the world from danger against all odds.

Yet I will have to say hands down John McLane.

For these reasons:
John doesn’t have CTU PDAs.
John isn’t trained in military tactics yet still kicks ass.
John never lost a family member to terrorists.
John knows how to get on the terrorists nerves.
John doesn’t need to torture he just kills them.
John never requested backup.

Jack wouldn’t have a chance.

Just passed by the store Go Sport at the Avenues Mall and was impressed. It really was a sight for sore eyes. A real sports store! It has everything. Clothing, equipment for all sports and the best part was how well organized it was! Really go check it out.

Just saw Die Hard 4.0 with some friends earlier today in the Kuwait cinema. It was a really pleasant experience not much was cut from the movie, and it was a really good movie. In the days of special effects and super heroes. It is great to get back to something simpler. Die Hard 4.0 is a call back to the good ol days of movies when it was bad guys vs the good and filled with fist fights and loud explosions.

Also for people who watched it the beginning credits mention this article A Farewell to Arms
By John Carlin as the inspiration.

Oh and the best part was waiting for John McLane to say “Yippie-ki-yay”.

Saw this on Time: What the World Eats showing what people around the world eat around a week. Compared to other countries in the series we actually dont eat that much, just not much in terms of greens. Thou seems we eat more fish and feed more people.

Off to England for the week. Arrived earlier today via Qatar Air. Slowly becoming my favorite/standard airline for trips. Just there connections availability and their services are great. Since I had to be in Manchester and it was the best option.

Currently in a place about 120km from Manchester in the country and it has been bliss. The weather here is just amazing cool and sunny. Really wonderful and such a change from the weather we been having in Kuwait. My lunch was outside and was just a wonderful experience, my body and brain just relaxed in ways I haven’t felt in ages.

There is some culture shock since the last time I was in England was around 20 years ago. So basing what I see from TV (news and shows) and what people have said. I can’t wait to get back to London and see what has changed there over the years, but that won’t be after I am done with work here.

Also update my blog theme, will be adding a LifeStream feature soon, but need some time to work on that and get out the bugs from the plugin.
