End of The Year Blues

I am starting to feel the apprehension of 10 Dec.

I am in the comfort zone and do not wish to disrupt the semblance of my daily life.

Emboldened

People are emboldened when

they are asked to speak their mind freely (without responsibility of course)
they think that their right to plunder is eroding
the leader is deemed powerless to do anything to stop them
the future of oneself and one's family interest is at stake
they know that fellow looters like themselves will be offering thumping support for them, albeit fake
they are desperate to hold on to what they have (having known that their cover had been blown)
they had to canvas for support by playing the racist card



They will say things like:

We will not allow others to question our right
When the battle comes, the blood of the warriors will run in our veins
We will engage in bloodbath to protect our rights
When is he going to use the weapon...whoa..Braveheart

But I am sure of one thing:
When the going gets really rough, I bet these people will be the first to leave, of course with their loot to go far far away..All talk and no substance

We are a peaceful lot, ekeing out an honest living, living in harmony with our brothers and sisters although we belong to multitude of diverse race, religion and social backgrounds. We share our joy and laughter, sorrow and anguish..

Why would these self-serving politicians resort to name calling, blame game, looking for scapegoats for their failures?

What else but .......self-interest..

Animal Instincts

Can you believe it?
Mother Duck enlisted the help of a policeman to save its drowning ducklings.

This shows how great motherly love is.
Love your mom today.

A giant swimming pool

Continuous rainfall turned Bukit Rimau/Chinese Taipeh School area into a swimming pool, cutting off access for residents going into, going out of Berjaya Park and the area in the vicinity. Turning back, motorists head for Kesas, hoping to get back into Berjaya Park/ Bukit Rimau area via Jalan Kebun, after paying the atrocious RM1.50 toll. Still, just before the toll booths.. the massive 5-lane had turned into a single-lane carriageway with the entire 4 lanes on the left were submerged in murky teh tarik flood water causing a massive traffic jam at the toll booths. Motorists had to squeeze to the extreme right.

Each time there is a massive downpour, people are not spared.Hardships and inconvenience. Development without proper planning, poor drainage systems are all hallmarks of a poor Local Council. Where have all the money gone to? To build palaces of councillors. Well done.

Satu lagi projek Barisan Nasional and
Selangor State Government's proclamation that Selangor is A Developed State.

My toes are laughing!!

na tang xi ki hee bang mui li jui bang bang
boh huen wu teh qin chiu biu chao lang
jin xing ko bi si hai xiong eh po long
wu xi ki wu xi lo ho oon pai oon
zong ma jiao ki kang lai kia
sa hun ti chu tia chit hun ko pa pia
ai pia jia eh yiah

Feast your eyes - An animation extravaganza

What a show! I have not watched any Animated movies since Chicken Run back in ABC Theatre at New Dover Road Canterbury. It turned out to be an astounding masterpiece, courtesy of CGI.

Blogging from Starbucks

For the first, I am blogging from outside my home or office. It was not smooth sailing either to start off. First, it was at Ming Tien the signal was too weak.
Then, proceeded to Secret Recipe , the manager was giving me wrong info about having to buy a subscription coupon or something. This awful little Time Zone website came up each time ( I need to register to get to surf online).Then moved to Starbucks at which the waiter told me that I just need to register. Registration process was a hassle..then successful..(then i didn't wait for about 2-5 minutes), i logged on straightaway..Error occurred..login not valid..what the hell..I thought I just gave my particulars and stuff..what's next..
Thinking that the login screwed..filled up my particulars again..inserted my usual login name **error** name had been used damn..so I put my alternate name with a number suffix..beep ,,Now what???!! I m getting annoyed..Error IC No had been used..
Damn damn..
Then probably the 5-10 minutes activation was up,,one last try...type in my first username..connection successful!!..1.5 hours in total..trying to connect..finally it came to a fruitful end. Wanted to buy eveybody a drink..after 2nd thoughts..nay, do not want to contribute to the inflation rate..
Here i am now.together with an uncle sitting next to me..staring at the screen with fingers dancing on the keyboard, plugging away into cyberspace..the greatest invention mankind has ever made..
I rest my case
