It’s tough to be a good MP these days. The real good ones are either in the Opposition or in the “wilderness” after being suspended. Others are quietly sitting down in the corner and have decided to play safe. Image source: the Net

(Not looking at the road is also due to some morons distracted with their phones)
Aaarrrgghhhh I don’t understand how some people are driving! They have eyes that are positioned like their car headlights – they can only look front.

Talk about evolution! In case you have not realized it, learning has become more fun these days
In the beginning, there were just books. Some were real boring books. Others were books with limited information (you need to buy the entire series to understand the whole story). How well a book was read was all depended on how well the book was written and how strong the reader’s imagination was.… [Click to read the rest] “Learning is more fun these days”
Question: What do you do if your photos did not turn out well [due to a low spec camera like mine]?
Answer: You “Photoshop” it
This has been covered by Jeff Ooi sometime ago but I am not talking about “photo-shopping” in that angle. I am looking from the end user point of view.… [Click to read the rest] “Improving the Photos”
A courtroom drama worth watching over and over again – “A Few Good Men” (photo source: www.amctheatres.com)
If you want to see a good courtroom drama, the last place you will be looking for it is in a Tamil movie.
Forget about expecting a realistic & legalistic scene, the outcome is usually is predictable and the hero (don’t mind if he has killed 30 people in cold blood) often gets scot-free in the end. Hearsays are often admitted as crucial evidence (witnesses often played by the Gurkha, gardener or the maid). Often courtroom scene is added in to bridge the loose & weak subplots in the movie.

* 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.
