Mobinil’s last Ad: False Advertisment

4 12 2008

Have you all seen Mobinil’s last Ad that’s been airing on the national and cable TV?

Their ad campaign is based on the fact that there are 20 million Egyptians now using Mobinil’s network. They take a step further to enumerate things that 20 million Egyptians can do.

One of their claims is that 20 million Egyptians can form a complete circle holding hand to hand along the equator of the Earth. That cannot be farther from that truth. The average arm span of a grown man is like what; 1.5 meters? By applying simple mathematics one can conclude that the circumstance of a circle formed by 20 million Egyptians is 30 million meters (or 30,000 KM).

The length of the Equator is 40,075 KM. So there you have it ladies and gents False Advertisment in it purest forms

10 reasons why Batman is the coolest super hero

28 10 2008

It is not secret that i am a big fan of Batman (actually he is the only super hero that i like) and here is why:

  1. He is just an ordinary man. He didn’t come from another planet, he was never bit by a bat, and he never got exposed to radiation or any of that crap.
  2. You have got to admit he has got the coolest gadgets.
  3. He has been portrayed by many gr8 actors (Michael Keaton (Batman, Batman Returns), Val Kilmer (Batman Forever), George Clooney (Batman & Robin) and Christian Bale (Batman Begins and The Dark Knight). And he was never portrayed by a sissy actor like other super heros
  4. He wears armor and not TIGHTS. Really guys tights just ruin the whole macho-macho look.
  5. He is the only super hero that i know of the has side kicks. Which means that he is not and arogant SOB.
  6. I am not saying that his story can happen but u gotta admit it is the most realistic one.
  7. His secret identity is not concealed by wearing glasses.

At the end, i know that i have promised you 10 reasons but there 3 kinds of people those who can count and thos who can’t count.





Caffiene Deficiency Syndrome

27 09 2008

Even though i am not a Med graduate (or even a Med Student) I came accross this new Syndrome and I have decided to call it CDS (Caffeine Deficiency Syndrome).

The name is pretty self explanatory. It is the collection of symptoms that you’d suffer after going for 8 hours without a cup of coffee.

CDS came to me as an epiphany midway through Ramadan. Here are the Symptoms that i cam up with so far”

  1. Drowsiness goes without saying of course.
  2. You loose concentration in situations where you really need it (driving suddenly pops to mind)
  3. You operate at only a percentage of how you’d normally would
  4. You start blurting out words. But you need to stay of Caffeine at least a couple of days to reach this level (i already had)

If you have any more symptoms tht you like to add the above list feel free to leave a comment. I’ll be submiting a medical paper soon to get CDS recognised officially world wide and that’s a nice way to get your name on it.

p.s. I do realize that this post is swarming with spelling mistakes and i am not looking for someone to correct them for me (that’s right i am talking to you DEEEEEEEEEEEEE)





Batman vs Superman

10 08 2008

Who’d win in a fight between Batman and Superman?

I say Batman. Why? you ask; well I do not think Batman has a weakness but superman has kryptonite. Sure Superman is super strong with x-ray vision and ice cold breath and all that crap. But Batman has all these cool Gadgets. there is just no achillies heal with batman.

Plus, they fought on Justice league and Batman totally kick Superman’s ass
