Putrajaya Road to Perdition

Note: This post is pro-Pakatan Rakyat post. If you are a 'Fuckatan BN', go butt-off. "Shell-shocked. Jaw dropped. Eyes popped." I came back late from work, switched on my PC and 'activate' my daily digest - Youtube, and straight away, a Malaysiakini clip that I subscribed locked my attention. As I sunk deep in the press statement made by Sivarasa Rasiah, PKR 2nd in-command, I was tad confused. I thought it was someone who had been sodomised 10 years ago is filing a case against Anwar...

Short Trip to Edgecumbe

I went with the fellas to Edgecumbe for a photoshoot. Our objective is to shoot macro but I forgot my tripod. Fuck big time. And I have to rely on the steadiness of my handhelding skills. It ain't easy. But luckily the instant brunch that we had before did boost the 'stability' a little bit. The sun was right on top of our heads, 90 degrees cos it's noon. LCD became so misleading with all the glare. For almost every shot I need to run below a shady tree to check. I screwed 30% of my whole...

Encounter with Machines

Today was my first time attending Plymouth Mega Ride (PMR), a charity event that was joined by thousands of bikers from England. Well, I am coming not as a biker of course as I am taking this opportunity only to do shoots of the nice bikes that will be put on display along the Promenade after the parading. Just a short fact about Plymouth Mega Ride (PMR); PMR was 'probably' UK's largest charity motorcycle ride out with in few thousands of bikers (doesn't include pillions) participating each...

When Guys Meetup

When guys meetup, they talk and bitch like women too, from science to politics, from women to sex, from war to terrorism, from food to bed, from machine to engine, from gadgets to computers, from hobbies to interests, from movies to soap? Lucky no soap involved. The gang meet up to 'celebrate' our Dave's homecoming, after leaving the country for 3 months to pursue his yachtmastership, and he passed (congrats) and bow he back, but being nicknamed Silverback; while having a penchant on...

Akihabara Slayings

"Sick and tired, tied and sick" The biggest shocker in news yesterday have to be the killing rampage in Akihabara district, aka Electric city where trendy techno youths hangout for fun, gadget hunt and street entertainment. Not sure what has gone into the minds of this killer as one can drive a truck and ram into pedestrians, injuring and killing them randomly in utter manic and madness. TOKYO — A 25-year-old man who told the police he was tired of life went on a killing rampage in a...

Suck Post

This is a bad week for me as I was downed by some series of flu, coughs, sore throats and the funniest thing of all, is the lost of voice. Dragon Boat Festival just over and I haven't had a taste of any bacang's this year. I miss that delicacy is not because growing up eating them but the biggest factor of all is the food in this Anglo Nation sucks. Consuming similar stuff day in day out sucks. Shopping for your groceries in the same bloody shop or supermarket sucks. Work and do the same...

Dr. Vinton Cerf, the man who led the team created the internet protocol TCIP/IP and widely regarded as the "father of the internet" was in Kuala Lumpur recently for the 16th World Congress on Information Technology. We cought up with him in the midst of a busy schedule for a quick...

TF2: Revenge of The Fallen

It was confirmed already in the press conference that Transformers 2 will have a subtitle of it's own called "Revenge of the Fallen". The shooting has begin on June 2nd in Bethlehem, PA. So far the plot details are still closely-guarded without any traces of leak info around the net as crews are tight-lipped about what they know due to cautions made by Bay itself perhaps? The most evident and solid info about the sequel is Jazz making its come back. Not sure how, maybe he was being...

Goodies From Pak Lah: More Petrol Hike

It was confirmed now that the 'goodies' from Pak Lah did came in the 'form' of petrol price increase that was being announced just a minute past midnight today. What was seen as a drastic approach has caused the toll to the rakyatl. Petrol increased to RM2.70 (+78sen) from previously RM1.92, and diesel increased to RM2.59 (+RM1.00) from previously RM2.58. The ironic thing about all this is DPM Najib 'assured' Malaysians in February 2008 that there will be no increase after the general...
