When I woke up this morning, it looked as if a large fog bank had rolled in off the Gulf. But by the time I got down to my car and saw the fine blanket of dirt covering it, I knew it was just what we like to call “dusty”. Many days so [...]

Pearl Jam – “Vitalogy”
Simon & Garfunkel – “Essential”
Cat Stevens – “Very Best of” Good collection.
Dixie Chicks – “Take The Long Way Home”
Genesis – “Lamb Lies Down On Broadway”

And it was just as dull and uninspiring as any other Catholic Church. Only this one was crowded! Packed to the walls. There were speakers outside so [...]

I found a community theatre.
The Kuwait Little Theatre is a local, amateur theatre that has open auditions and seems pretty active. It is located south of here is the town of Ahmadi. I don’t know where that is, how to get there or how long it would take. So my mission Friday [...]
