Alternative route

You know, everyone is trying to cough out some kind of great devices to make good moolah. But some device just don't make sense at all, or rather I call it the alternative route. This is one hell of an alternative route to walking. So now beside just walking around, you have to carry that hell of a heavy product with you. You might even have equip yourself like a cyclist yet you are no much faster than a walker. Weird.

Sideways

I can just never understand what is it with people that you have to walk straight through a gap even though that mean rubbing your sides with the walls. Is their body so stiff that they cannot turn sideways to get through that gap before proceeding on down the path?

Damn. I'm pretty sure they ain't no blind people, and given their visible non-handicap, a man my physique do take up a lot of spaces. So even if I do give space for you to get pass me on the bus, that does not means the gap is big enough for you to walk straight on. Sometimes I seriously think those people's head are filled with marsh or weed or wood dust. You may think you are thin but in actual fact, if you are rubbing against me, you are not.

If your whole intention is to rub against me, tell me lah. I can arrange a special session for you at a very good prices. A couple of grand an hour. I like pounds. I'm sure we can agree on the price. If not, PLEASE FARKING WALK SIDEWAYS TO GET PASS ME ON THE BUS CAN ANOT? WILL DIE ANOT? DUIZ!

A little paradise

Fancy your own island? Build one yourself!

I kid you not.

I wonder if the coast guard and gahmen will chase me back inland if I seriously do it.

Not so good

Seems like there isn't much good news for me lately.

Close colleague of mine gave birth to a son won't even help me win abit of moolah at the lottery. Its even a rarer thing that I actually went to buy the ticket.

Then I never get to hit the jackpot at the 10M lottery as well.

Then seems like I'm not given a full picture of my heart condition. First I always get a weird look from the doctors, then followed by asking me if I'm a runner. They even have this puzzle look on their face. Afterall, they might even be surprising themselves by asking someone my physique that question. Why they ask them? Caused I have a really low heartbeat rate. First I was lead to believe that I have a strong and efficient heart. Then the figure comes out and someone suggested that its a very dangerous low number. Way too low for even a marathon numbers.

Oh great. Now what? I might just die in my sleep? But from the good side of it, its a peaceful way of dying, provided I dun have huge nightmares to accompany it before my end of life.

That is why Life is short, play Hard. Then you die faster.

Funeral is also another occasion for gathering. As I would say, I would normally play mahjong on two occasions, Lunar New Year festive season and funeral. But I think even mahjong are now not showing up at funeral. I wonder why.

Sexpo

The 1st Sexpo in Sillypore is here. As usual, first time most probably
means lotsa boo-boo. There is the stupid way they publish their ticket
price. Why can't they just make do with a flat rate of 15 moolah but
they must put 14 moolah and 1 moolah for ticketcharge, hidden in fine
print. Since the 1 moolah is a must, why fine print? Which <s>con
artist</s> marketing personnel prepare the information?

Upon entering, the first impression is that I just blow 15 moolah. I'm
greeted by some really bad cheesy supposed-to-be-sensual dance, not to
mention that the dancers look less than appetizing. This is sexpo,
about sex rite? So I expect appealing sex appeal in any performance
but its u total disappointment. I can anytime find a handful of
dancers from my usual club to do really sensual dancers to leave you
hot and wet, if the gahmen allows.

But of course they expect good parents to bring their children here
for their growing up sex education. So its total <s>turn off</s> tone
down for general all age area. Then one can pass through to a
restricted area and it become a little paradise for sex toys, past and
present.

Vibrator. Vibrating condom. Lubricant. Jelly. Edible condom. Edible
undies. Favoured condom. Sexual drawing and wall arts. Penis pump.
Head enhancer. Even a mattress design for karmasutra sex is avaiable.
Its an interesting product for lazy people @ a sexy price.

Stupid thing I overheard is something along the line of waterproof
vibrator. The older model is not quite waterproof. Now which nimcumput
design a non-waterproofed vibrator. If the user dun get wet, I think
its a failure.

The exhibition of ancient sex relics are interesting. You see ancient
pornograhy restored to show us the sexual appetite and behavior of the
past. But I do learn something, the certain sexual punishments that I
thought were made up in movies actually existed, like the <i>donkey
saddle</i>.

Main attraction is the beach wear fashion. The moment the scantily
clothed babes with bod to die for appears, all cameras and handphones
all came up as fast as lightning, with flashes going off nonstop. Then
those hunks appeared, you won't see any rised hands with cameras and
handphones and darkness seems to come over the stage. See, how <i>chee
hiong</i> but that is just fair. Nice to look at face and bod, who
dowan?

As with what I always do, I got bored and then turn into a critic.
Which hunk got a nicer bod. Which babe got a big bottom. One got a
protruding tummy which look like early pregnancy. One got a big
bottom. One got a slight hollow-in tummy. But as always, its
forgivable with nice face.

Skydiving

This has seriously change the way I'm looking at skydivingv!

This is so going to cut down the cost and bring me one step closer to doing skydiving!

This is so going to be fun!!!!

Undo evil

Does the means justify the ends? A statement that comes out many times when coming to solve certain form of issues.  Sometimes I wonder if it justify the means to rid of one evil so it can undo many other evils. If you know one person is of evil, very much of evil and you have a choice to eliminate that one evil, would you do that?

After watching 3 seasons of smallville, beside part of the problems that caused in Smallville is due to the meteoroid shower, the other half are badly caused the Luthur family. If the hero is to put aside abit of morality and exterminate the Luthur family totally, then at least half of the problems are solved. But if that can happened once, you can continue again, and the greyness in the morality zone will just expand further.

Remind me back in the time of Romance of Three Kingdom (三国志）, the time where China is in turmoil again, which they seems to be entering every few centuries. Chinese just seems to enjoy war. Everyone just want to be the emperor, everyone just want to own a piece of the kingdom. One of the greatest strategist of that era advise the man of great charm and morality to covert and take over the lands of people whom he called brothers. Not even more when the owner of the lands are on the down side. If that great man was to take the advise of the great strategist, the entire history of the chinese might just changed. But of course, history book willl portrait him differently then.

So I just wonder, how justify is it to undo an evil by do another evil to you so as to save many other evils from happening thereafter.

Bird love

An old story from an email which I receive. Kind of touching and well, tells you a lot about love and faith and define the term of "stand by you". If anyone know the original photographer, let me know.

(It was a gloomy Saturday afternoon, a flock of birds spending great
time searching for food and playing on the main road. Out of sudden, a
big truck speed through, and a black shadows noticeable on the road...
sad thing had happened again)

(Birds are also rich in feeling too, although this bird already dead..
However, another birdfly over to her immediately, just like a family
member, unable to accept the truth..)

(Not long after that, another car storm in and causing dead bird's body
whirl with the wind... the spouse notice the movement as if she's still
alive.. he quickly fly besides her again..)

(He stayed besides her and yell... WHY YOU'RE NOT GETTING UP?"

(unfortunately, she no longer able to hear him... At the mean time, he's
trying to lift her up...)

(He, of cause was unable to bear the burden... keep flocking his wings,
one time after another)

(Another car soon passing by.. he quickly fly off, once the car has
gone.. he came down again)

Although other's bird has told him its useless.. however, he never give
up! He is trying his best to lift her up to see her flying again!
Another car passed by, her dead body whirl again... as if still alive
and trying to fly... he took this as impetus.. trying in different way
to encourage her to fly again!!!)


(He had used all of his energy... however, no reply in the end...)

(Photographer said, he couldn't shoot any longer... photographer is so
worried that the living bird is going to get hurt, though he picked up
the dead bird and leave it at the roadside. The live one lingering at
surrounding tree as if crying with his singing.. refuse to leave...)

(After I had finished this, my first instinct is to circulate to all of
you. To be honest, I felt that human in today's world does not carry the
sympathy as birds did...hope that we all will appreciate life and love,
treat everyone in your life truthfully!)

View of the roadster

Complaints have always been part and parcel of anyone who is <i>trying
very hard</i> to make a <b>decent</b> living. Our local taxi drivers
are people of opinions, belly full of them in fact. Sure got comments
and opinions for just about anything, especially so towards the
gahmen.

But you know, sometimes it is just kind of astonishing and filled with
all kinds of <i>wonders</i> that those taxi drivers can impose on you
when clearly you are just not interested to partake in the
conversation. Still it will not stop the driving from gibbering away,
with or without you.

Increase in public transport fares hike but a drop in fare for taxi.
How taxi drivers survive? Except bachelor like the one driving me to
airport now. Locals complaining of how expensive taxi fare is but this
uncle retaliates that its even more expensive in <i>Angmoh</i>
countries and Japan and Taipei. If bangladesh and indian workers can
take taxi, so can you. Taxi drivers are sometimes bastard people (not
me say hor. dun suit me. I quote this taxi uncle only hor) who has no
patience for even their own kind.

And he yah-dah yah-dah away while I am typing this entry. And then a
red Honda Accord trying to overtake this taxi I'm in and the taxi is
already going at 100kmph. Even horning. In chinese, I will have said
that the driver is in a hurry to get reincarnated.

See lah, got such driver, how not to complain?

Rich

I love this quote that I heard in Smallville

When you are rich, you are not crazy, you are eccentric -- Lionel Luthur

Boy do I support that statement!

Anything that is been touched by moolah is NEVER without politics. Sports, charity, business. Any industries! To think Jay Chou won the golden horse award! It must have seriously pissed off many many previous award winners, devaluing the award to a new low! Is ballroom dancing considered sports? Its doesn't matter at all cause its quite a lucrative business and its a very expensive hobby, not to say that it is without politics. I shall speak too much of it nor pinpoint particular events or school in case they serve me with a legal letter which I can't pay off, unless I can sell my arse for a good price. Even social dancing like salsa has its own share of politics as well, which is sad, you know. Even a simple forum that started out as fun turns very political when its popularity is on the rise. All these I shall say are part and parcel of fame, which comes with rich-ness.

Moolah might just jolly well be the rootz of <s>all</s> many Evil -- bishamon (for amending it to suit his needs)

Then someone was telling about that there is a history behind every item in the men's wabrobe. Then something about Windsor collar, design or rather engineered by Duke of Windsor, who became king of England. But he was only a king for <s>11</s> <s>9</s> less than 12 months. He gave it all up for a woman he loves, and move to Paris to be with her. Then goes on about that Duke been a very romantic person, giving up his kingdom for a woman. Now, that is what you called 要美人，不要江山。History shown that many kings and emperors want BOTH, and most of the time, they lost either one, and worst both.

Then this person asked if we would do such a thing, giving up such wealth for a woman one love. I look at the person, and say whatever I say now doesn't matter caused I do not have such wealth to give up. Wait till I have my kingdom and wealth, then I shall answer that question.

I won't even have an answer for myself now.

The power of prejudice

Prejudice can seriously blind one's judgement, even if it means to cast unfair judgement.

I had not known this person but was told of an incident that involve that person and it is not a very good description of that person. And before I get to know this person, my perspective on this person had already been colored. And best of all, I dun even know exactly who this person is. By the time I know this person, or rather know who this person is, I am not having a very good perspective of this person. I know, it is just kind of unfair to this person. But frankly, just based on the look of this person, I'm not exactly in good favour, though I'm not too sure if the prejudice comes with it.

I should have known better, when I have been through this all the time. Who I really look like and who I really am is pretty much very different. I heard a lot of time about that. I know about it and most of the time, I'm not exactly doing anything about it. I think I have a lot of portrait in different circle. Sometimes if I'm to accidentally bring in the different portrait into a different circle, I get questions like anything wrong, you look/sound/behavour differently.

But of course, sometimes it will just take place unconsciencely without realising that I'm portrait a different me to other people. It surprises me sometimes just as well.

Sometimes its a good thing. To protect myself at work, when I dowan people to bug me. It works well, though it really has its bad effect.

The difference

The way one carry oneself and the confidences one displays makes all
the differences whether one get what one wants is.

No confidences is half the war lost.

This is old shit.

Sigh.

Durian and whiskey

One should know one's threshold for liquor if one dowan to be make a fool in public. Paying 10 dollar for a trip into a fair of endless, or almost as much as one can drink. Whiskey + brandy + vodka + wine are not a good combination for an easy drink on a saturday afternoon.

But its also a cheap way to find out your taste bud on the type of wine you like. I'm no great taster for wine nor my knowledge is that profound, I'm a simple man that goes with my taste bud. That also come with a price, a price that might cause you to get higher than you expected. I have no idea what is a vodka company doing there but I like the taste. The many different tastes that comes with their vodka. But one thing I learnt as well, China wine is just not for me. Nop, my taste bud simply rejects it.

Speaking of which, does durian enhance the taste of whiskey? I thought I tasted durian on every durian related food that I took a bite on. Is there a explaination behind this? I just wonder.....

Good and Evil

On the way home last nite, I saw someone reading this little book titled "Uncovering Satan" by some reverend. How interesting, when you have so many ways in marketing propagate your agenda. First it comes as those miracles, faith, truth, hope and its such. Now its a different technique. Start discounting satan.

Ok, I'm no minion of satan but sometimes all these talks just seems bored me. I know, to someone who is very religious, people like me are without goals, without the purity, without the spiritual heart. Oh well, doesn't matter. I'm no atheist for sure, I'm just sitting on the fence, that's all.

我不入地狱，谁入地狱。Technically, I think that statement seriously can describe many forms of religion. Its a very generic rule. Its works all the same. What is big brother up there doing to see me entering through the gates of hell? And if its a test, then I always believe that 吃得苦中苦，方为人上人。

Religous people incline everything in life to the big Him. Non-religious put it down as luck and/or hard work together with opportunities. So its a 人定胜天 versus 人算不如天算. What says you?

What say you?

How is it that someone who can be telling a different story for each individual asking the same thing? What do you say about someone whom tell one person that she is attached and then to another person that she is single.

• There is no courtship.
• Barely know the person, probably on a casual or even acquaintance level.

Possibilities

• playing some mind game
• crazy person
• split personality
• schizophrenic

So my way of handling it? Ignore the game. What about you?
