Month: May 2006

Each day while I am going back to home, the taxi driver asked me “Where do you wanna stop?” I told him, “next to Pedestrian tunnel”. Close to the tunnel there is also Pedestrian bridge. I don’t know why the taxi drivers always stop their and they said we arrived!!!… “No it is not the bridge I want the tunnel…” I think there is a big different between the bridge and the tunnel.. at least on above the ground and the other is under the ground :-). One of 10 taxi I hired, 2 of them know the difference between the tunnel and the bridge and stopped correctly where I wanna stop..

Finally after 5 times on failing on the driving test, I got the driving license today… yup finally i can drive here… but the funny things that I didnt pass the exam but I just exchange my other license with one from here it just took me 2 days to do that… If you have another license from another contry and wanna one from here just exchange it is faster.. 🙂

I got a chance to test the All new Yahoo mail, it is still in beta.. I was impressed with the clean interface… you have good space to list your email you will feel that you are using mail client like Thunderbird or Outlook. The email is fast like Gmail… and you have right click menu… if you compare it with the new Hotmail… MS don’t have any chance to compete againest Yahoo.. I am thinking now to start using my Yahoo mail, even if I have POP mail accounts..I hope this new interface will see the light soon, because it is really worthy and great…

Yesterday, while I was on taxi leaving my job.. the taxi driver asked me if he can buy a cup of coffee.. he stopped on front of one of the street “coffee shops (abo al3abed)”. i was surprised with the way they communicate. by few hands move the boy understand that he wants a cup of coffee with a lot of sugar, cup of water and a pack of ciggirattes (Marlboro light :-)). I know now that every job has it is own langauge and communications
