Alternative methods to prevent car theft / car jacking
.
Had a funny chat with my colleagues, Rosli and Yusof on how to improve the car security (Rosli has just bought a brand new Proton Waja). The idea was to add a weighing machine below the driver seat and one can only start the car if the weight matches the driver’s weight (with a range of plus / minus 5 kg).

With parking space at a premium, this selfish moron can afford to occupy 3 parking lots. Plate number: WDT 8262. When I was taking this picture, the lorry attendant saw me and quickly got into the lorry. I was waiting for the lorry driver to tell a piece of my mind but decided not to when my wife begged me not to.

However sadly, the focus is tuned on the “act” itself rather than the cause of the act. Didn’t Londoners knew that when UK decided to join “Sheriff Bush” in his quest in the Middle East, they going to be affected?
Big Problems Along The Highway
Something on the lighter side…
Problem: If you see a tire rolling across the highway
Big Problem: The tire is actually from your car!
Problem: If you see a bus driver driving way over the speed limit whilst talking on his handphone and having his lunch all at the same time
Big Problem: If you are one of the passengers in the bus
Problem: If you see a speed demon right behind a slower moving car
Big Problem: If you are the driver of the slower moving car
Problem: If at the R&R, you have nothing to eat except for a suspicious looking nasi goreng but you eat it anyway as you are very hungry
Big Problem: If your suspicious turned out to be correct, the nasi goreng has actually turned stale and your stomach kicks into “overdrive”
Problem: If a very beautiful girl hitchhiked your car but she is not alone.… [Click to read the rest] “Big Problems Along The Highway”
Tech News 101: Bootable Windows XP With SP2 In Just 6 Steps?
I had this problem last month – my home Windows XP went “dead” and I had no choice but to reformat the entire hard-disc. Sounds easy except for one tiny problem.
This meant I need to redo my Windows Update as well and with a dial-up connection at home, updating Service Pack 2 means I have to wait for ages.

CSI: MY (ala Gerak Khas)
(We all learned something from watching the CSI series. Image source: http://shrineodreams.wordpress.com)
After we had CSI, CSI:Miami and CSI: NY, I am pretty sure that our local production houses will one day try to have our very own CSI version promptly known as CSI: MY or PJT (Penyiasatan Tempat Jenayah).… [Click to read the rest] “CSI: MY (ala Gerak Khas)”
Daily commute to work

Irrespective of whether the fuel price goes up or not, I suspect that it will have little impact on the daily traffic jam from my house to workplace.

Food 101: Delicious Food in Ghana, West Africa
Whilst most of us think that African lives only on maze and corn (well I did once – watching too much of National Geography), you will be surprised how common some of the foods are in Ghana with Malaysia. When I was there for an assignment last year, we were living mostly of nasi goreng (“fried rice”), Chinese noodles and Indian tandori chicken.

Tamil Movie Review: 7 Groups of Movie Viewers You Will See in Cinema
Last week, my wife and I were at IOI Mall to see the latest Tamil movie “Anniyan” starring Vikram and directed by Shankar (picture source: www.hindu.com).
