Pic from the boring project site

A mouse war!

Last night a mouse visited my office while we (Me, Hisham and Mansor FalaFil) watching a movie on TV...
The guys jumped and the mouse ran away... After few minuts he/she/it came back and ran away again...
In the 3rd time he/she/it got in and the guys toke there WOMMD (weapons of mass mouse distraction) out, it was half broomstick and a broomless stick and they started chasing the ugly mouse… After few minutes of using war techniques, they learn from watching news from "freedom" US wars on Afghanistan and Iraq they got him down!
After that, they throw him/her/it in the street after taking a picture next to it.



Today I was in the office and Hisham walked in and shouted: "MOUSE! MOUSE! MOUSE!"
Yes, he got back to life, got inside my office again… so Hisham called a BIG delivery dude to come in with a BIGGER weapon and knocked that dirty mouse again, and throws him in the street, but this time a huge nice brick covered him. :D

The dust is still there!

Riyadh is still covered with a dusty weather!

You can see the sun without a sunglasses! this is how dusty it is!

New Bitch!

We got in the Ezzbah a new ugly puppy bitch (female dog) we called her Petey!

We called her Petey based on the cartoon Petey and Jaydee.



Nael and Petey Don't worry he is not trying to strangle her.

What is MRGX?

Many people ask me what is mrgx? Moreover, what is mean?
I use it in some login names and subdomains. It is like my internet nickname :)

This is what is mean:

MRGX: is an identification of a gene that reverses the immortal phenotype of a subset of cells and is a member of a novel family of transcription factor-like genes.

Freezing wave!

A freezing wave hit us in Riyadh; the temperature dropped 20 degrees in less than 2 hour! It dropped from 34° to 14° Celsius (93° to 57° Fahrenheit)
That wasn't it, there was a dust storm too. It didn't stop for 3 days!

Almost everybody got sick, I got sick too :(
This is normal for Riyadh the weather change in no time it happen a lot during this season.

It's a desert after all!

I just want to share this picture with my blog visitors

Translation:

Notice from the restaurant The restaurant is not open because it is closed

Repeat "Oh Night You Are So Long"

Today Mansor FalaFil came to my office after a long absence cause he was in Jeddah for 15 days… It passed like a 15minuts!

You might ask why we (Me and Nael) said it passed like 15minuts?

The kid is 20 years old and he tries his best to act like a man… he always say "FalaooaFil!" when he is excited!
He is obsessed with ugly dogs, I don't know why… and he is still talk about cars all the time.
In conclusion, he is a Ta7leya Boy!

Let me ask the guys around me what they thing of him…

I will start with Nael:

"Trouble maker, Noisy… He is still a kid! And you know what I think of kids!"

Hisham:

"My feelings towards him is like when you download a 5mg file using a slow dial-up connection and when it's 99% done you get a call on the same phone line and you lose the connection and the downloaded file, then you find that the call was from Mansor… the feeling you get is what I feel toward him!
And I wish I can miss him!"

Mansor (Him Self):

"Annoying!"

Mansor FalaFil



Mansor and Nael, Nael is trying to cover Mansor face so he doesn't show beside him in the pic...
But Nael looks stupid... I like this pic


Mansor FalaFil again



Nael faking a smile

First day of work after Eid

First day of work after Eid

Today is the first day of work after Eid holiday; I made an appointment at 5:30PM to visit Najee to upload a touch panel design program to 20 new touchpanels :..(

Najee is an employee in a company that subcontracted me to do some automation system programming and design.
He is a cool guy, but he is kinda strange. You never know when he is in a good mood or a bad mood, or if he is serious or kidding. After 2 months of working with him, I just gave up and dealt with him if he is kidding all the time… so far its working!

Back to the 20 touchpanels… Each touchpanel take about 6min to upload so it will take me about 2 hours to finish.

Then I will have to go to the site to configure the touchpanels with the main unit, in 20 rooms. I think I will do that tomorrow.

I hope I can finish the project soon cause it took too long… Since July 2004

I don't think this project will finish before the end of 2004.

Nevertheless, this is not the only work I did since Eid, I actually did a site visit to fix mess-calibrated touchpanel. I got it working with in 20min.

I will tell you later more about what I do for living and more about me… tell then wait from my next post.
