https://darkredhat.wordpress.com/page/2
A drink from the half-empty glass. April 18, 2013. Life ain’t worth living with no nits to pick. One of the less pleasant aspects of my personality is what my wife calls my tendency to nit-pick . My elder daughter, however, is acquiring my talent for nit-picking. And she had the nerve to turn it on me not so long ago. It happened like this. Do you ever spend your life using an incorrect expression until someone politely puts you right? Another horrendous faux pas happened years ago when a colleague and I...

Doors to Manual, Phones to Self-Destruct | Dark Red Hat
https://darkredhat.wordpress.com/2013/07/01/doors-to-manual-phones-to-self-destruct
A drink from the half-empty glass. Doors to Manual, Phones to Self-Destruct. On July 1, 2013. According to the BBC. British Airways has just decided to allow us passengers to turn on our mobile devices after their planes have landed. Of all the airline regulations, the no-phones rule must be the most widely broken, whoever you fly with. Other rules are policed with an iron fist. Seatbelts? Patrolled with the enthusiasm of a traffic warden. Smoking in the toilets? A death sentence. Drunken exuberance?

https://darkredhat.wordpress.com/2013/05/10/cockroaches-and-me-skipping-through-the-brain-functions
A drink from the half-empty glass. Cockroaches and me – skipping through the brain functions. On May 10, 2013. Cockroaches are beautiful, elegant and resourceful creatures. I just don’t like sharing my home with them. And they mess with my brain. I’ve lived in the same apartment block in Bahrain more or less for the past four years, and until a few months ago, the little darlings had never graced me with their presence. Because of a swift degradation in my kitchen hygiene standards? They’re not particula...

Exploring the world through books…. Bahrain: My Beautiful Bahrain. May 27, 2016. May 27, 2016. Source: http:/ www.29travels.com/mymap.php? Bahraini literature is dominated by poetry, like most desert cultures. A good resource on the various aspects of culture can be found here. Although there is a dearth of books in English, I was able to find a few titles. However the more easily source-able of them were not from Bahraini authors. Hence I decided to go for something different this time. 8216;I stepped o...

A drink from the half-empty glass. The World – Brought to you by…. On November 12, 2013. According to my daughter, who’s just come back from a holiday in Portugal, Easyjet pilots are now selling scratch cards. Well, not in person, but she tells me the pilot took time off flying the plane to announce that the cabin crew would be going down the aisle offering passengers the infernal things. Before long we will surely see coppers selling Panadol to customers locked in drunk tanks. Doctors will be pluggi...
