What is Amr-Gawish.com ?
Amr-Gawish.com is my personal website, Amr Gawish's website.
I'm a developer, I develop for living.
I rock at J2EE, ADF and JSF.
I'm interested in Semantic-Web, SOA, Agile, JRuby, Flex and Oracle Webcenter.
My life evolve around technology, mainly the Java world, and Technology news.
You can consider me one of this Tech geeks!
I also like web and graphic designing, I'm not a pro, but I may have some talent!
K is my codename, so if you see me using it somewhere, dont panic, its just me!
Wow you still read, you ROCK, give me a visit at my kBLOG or see where else I may be.
You look like a great friend already!
Why K is my codename ?
Well, that's along story...Okay fine I'll tell it, just don't push me.
K is shortcut for KETF EL GAMAL Which means in English "Camel's Shoulder"
One day when I was at secondary school, I had a chemistry class at my friend's House.
When I went there I was fully dressed a Black high neck sweatshirt, Black pants, Black shoes, and of course a Black Hair with a light Black skin!
After laughing and all,one of my friends popped up with the name, saying "Hey dude, you surely look like a Ketf El Gamal.
I was like o_O "Dude, who's the hell is Ketf el gamal?!!?!?!"
He smiled and quietly like Nabil Farouk's comics style and answered "You know Ali Baba and the 40 Thefts".
I Replied "Yes, What about this story!"
He smiled again and said "You know when Ali Baba sneezed, and the Gang's big boss replied 'God Bless you, Abu Serie' -Yar7amkom Allah Yabu Seri3-".
He then continued "And Abu serie Replied 'It's not me boss -mesh ana elli 3atast ya m3alem-', and the big boss wondered "Who did it then", and of course no one answered!".
He ended his talk saying "Abu-Serie was the Right hand for the Big Boss, Ketf El Gamal was his Left Hand!, and he was dressed up just like you do Now!".
!!?!!!?!
He saw my question marks and my shy smile for his joke and answered "Believe me, it suits you perfectly with this weirdo shoulder of yours!"*
After some sleepless nights of thinking, and millions of wet tissues I was convinced.
He convinced me that I'm Ketf el gamal, and Ketf el gamal is me
After time people was getting troublesome calling me Ketf el gamal, It's too long, so it was shortened to Ketf, and afterward it was just K.
* My Shoulder has some special abilities, I can turn it around its center with 270 degrees, The average person can only turn it about 200 degrees!
