* The temple that was slated for demolishment in Shah Alam (Picture Source: www.policewatchmalaysia.com). The history of the temple is here
At first I thought that only we Hindus got screwed. Then running through other websites reveals that we were not alone.
The Malaysian Bar Council reported 2 other incidents involving a Buddhist temple and a Church (both got reported in the mainstream media as well).… [Click to read the rest] “This is getting serious!”
I don’t know…sometimes I am just lost for words on how people park their cars. They can be so downright selfish and arrogant.
Read also this of what I think of people who can’t park properly. Some things can be so true.

(Breakfast was organised for this trip but when we went over for our turn, there were plenty of hungry crowd at the restaurant)
Heavy drinking the night of this trip before only means one thing or rather 2 things the next morning – I am going to be very hungry when I wake up and I am going to have a slight headache.
So, when the alarm rang at 8.00 am the next morning, I did not even bother to switch the alarm off. However, somehow I knew that I need to force myself up if we want to make it for breakfast which by the way closes at 10.30 am.

All it takes is itchy hands and curious mind to screw up things…
The Internet Explorer 7 sounded like something I wanted to test out this morning. I downloaded it, installed, got some errors and restarted the PC several times but in the end it did not work.
So, I uninstalled it and somehow I ended up screwing my Windows XP registry as well (learning the lessons the hard way).… [Click to read the rest] “This is unexpected…”
I find this very disturbing…
There are no details on why MBSA wants to demolish a 100 year old temple or whether inadequate compensation was offered for the land but the news is disturbing.
In part of Puchong where I am staying, there are 3 temples within close proximity – one opposite IOI Mall (at the end), the one next to Tamil School and another near Tractor Malaysia bend.… [Click to read the rest] “Demolition of Hindu Temple”
(The “calm before the storm” when we were early to the highland’s banquet hall)
Considering we are at the highlands, it was cold when I woke at 5.00 pm. It was cold when I stepped on the cold & hard bathroom tiles. It was pure hell when the cold freaking water hit me when I turned on the shower. It was like taking a shower with ice cubes.
It took sometime before I managed to balance the cold & hot water but by then the “damage” has been done. I was shivering as I came out of the shower.

(The view from the bus during the trip to the highland – there was less traffic on the highway and the travelling was slow but smooth. There was a pirated movie shown whilst we were travelling – it was terrible, we heard people laughing whenever something funny was shown in the movie)
Gosh, it has been some time since my last trip to Genting Highlands.

It left just few minutes before I go off for a trip to Genting Highlands for my company trip cum company dinner.
It's about time for a well deserving break from the hussle and bussle of the traffic jam in Puchong & Sunway. It's also about time for a trip where it does not need me to be in the driver's seat.… [Click to read the rest] “Minutes before…”
If there is one thing I learned well from my dad, is how not to be late for any functions.
My dad will be at least 30 minutes early to any function (big or small). Most of the time he will be 1 hour early which sometimes poses a problem for us because if we are late, we can count on getting scolding from him.… [Click to read the rest] “Leaving Home Early”
(I was away for a 2 days workshop but managed to post something about my son in between my busy schedule)
One of the tough things that a man can do is getting a haircut for his 2 year old son.
It’s tough because I have a difficult time to keep my still a hyperactive 2 year old son whilst going through scissors, razors and electric haircutter.… [Click to read the rest] “Having a haircut”
My advice to those who have not watched this movie yet, drop whatever you are doing now and go and see the movie. Poster source: IMDB.
The story, although nothing new (the story of a son growing up to avenge the death of his parents – you can find plenty of such stories in Tamil & Hindi movies), is beautifully crafted with witty dialogues thrown in.

Q: Why did Moses wander in the desert for 40 years?
A: He wouldn’t ask for directions.
In case you are wondering about the above question, it’s all about being a man…
I and my wife decided to watch a late night movie in Sunway Pyramid. It was a time out for us as a couple without having our son tagging along.… [Click to read the rest] “Real men don’t ask for directions”
