Lately there been lots of speculation on the change from Thursday/Friday to a Friday/Saturday weekend. Well I just received an email with a letter from the Kuwait Civil Service Commission declaring that starting Sept 1st 2007 that Saturday will replace Thursday as an official day of rest.
Tata Jaguar
The British auto industry looks to lose another one of their British brands. It seems that Aston Martin to Kuwaitis, Lotus to Malaysians and now Jaguar.
Is there any British car company still owned by Brits? The only one I can think of is Noble.
Stars in the Sky
I enjoy looking at the night sky and looking at the stars. I can sometimes guess the Big Dipper now and then, and some times I notice some new ones like Venus a few weeks ago that was under the moon.
Most of the time I like to reffer to this program: Stellarium which is really wonderful. It is for all platforms and extremely powerful and easy to use. One great feature is time travel. Sometimes I notice something bright and wonder what it is. I just remember the time and general direction then go back to that momment in the program and see what it is.
This is great but you have to wait til you get back to your computer.
Now I found this site: Amateur Astronomy that can teach you the night sky in 15 minutes. It is really simple it shows you the basic constellation and stars in relation to it, then you have to find it. Its kinda like Wheres Waldo for the sky.
It has taught me to find:
- 3 constellations
- 2 stars, one is the north star.
- 1 planet

Fly Me to the Moon
One day a boy woke up to find his girlfriend missing, all he had was a map beside him.
The boy followed it and this is what he saw.
Jon Lovitz: Hero
I always been a big fan of Phil Hartman, his characters in Simpsons and his role in New Radio have made those shows classics to watch. Seriously who can forget Troy McLure and The Planet of the Apes - Musical!
So reading this:
IT was fight night at an L.A. comedy club last week when Jon Lovitz roughed up Andy Dick over the murder of their “Saturday Night Live” colleague, Phil Hartman.
Made me really happy. Andy Dick was disgracing Phil Hartman who was a very close friend Jon Lovitz and well decided that Dick finally needed a good ass kicking. His antics are just beyond normal and its become to the degree of exaggeration.
