Hamburglar – my son’s first impression
Look at the above picture and tell me whether it’s looks frightening or not…No, no…look closely again. Not frightening?
Now look from a 1++ year old point of view.
Last week, me and my wife decided to hop in to McDonalds for a short dinner treat. Firstly we had some McDonald’s coupons Secondly it has been awhile we had McNuggets (used to eat them for lunch and dinner when I was still working in a bank).
Is Parliament turning into a Zoo?
.
.
An interesting read at Lim Kit Siang’s blog titled “92% Parliament majority turns ugly…”. Well, it is not the first time I am hearing about it or have shaken my head on the hooligans that we have elected to the Parliament. This led me to think on the reasons why majority is showing their ugly side:-

Reunions – when to go for one?
Last week, I was invited to an office reunion lunch.
My ex-big boss from my ex company was leaving the company and he thought it will be best to meet the “old” gang before he leaves. So, when I got the invitation, I immediately said yes. It will be good to see old office mates – not seen them for 2 – 3 years now.… [Click to read the rest] “Reunions – when to go for one?”
Lessons learned from Mumbai’s Dabbawallas
Who are Dabbawallas and what they do?
Around 5,000 dabbawallas (or also known as tiffin-carriers) work every day through a system of multiple relay to deliver more than 175,000 tiffin boxes for lunch in the city of Mumbai, India in an exercise that begins at 9 am and ends at 5 pm.

Disasters and Malaysia’s readiness
The question begging to be answered is whether we are going to be professional enough to act when a disaster (natural or man-made) strikes.
That thought came into my mind when I was watching Mega cities: Mexico City over National Geography Channel in Astro.
Considering Mexico City is the world’s biggest city but at ground zero – on one side: one of the world’s most earthquake-prone hotspots, on the other: one of the world’s most active volcanoes and beneath their feet – a shaky foundation of landfill.… [Click to read the rest] “Disasters and Malaysia’s readiness”
Oh dear…English
I got this in my email this morning (author name not mentioned – copyright reserved respective authors)
English Part 1
Let’s face it – English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France.… [Click to read the rest] “Oh dear…English”
Blogging 101: Blogging Language – Important To Do It Correctly?
Normally, I have never bothered with the language in anyone’s blog. Why should I? It is not my blog and everyone has their right to determine how they want to express themselves. Admittedly even my own blog is not perfect. It has spelling errors; critical grammar mistakes and sometimes sentences that do not make any sense.
To minimise spelling mistakes and grammar errors, what I do is that I would first type it in an MS Word. Do the spelling and grammar checks before posting. Most of the time, it works but not all the time. Comic source: http://www.cgu.edu

Blogging 101: When YB Lim Kit Siang Blogs, Old Style Blogging Rocks
After Shahrir’s “so-called” one-sided (and often testing our intelligence) blog, we have finally gotten one from the Opposition Party with YB Lim Kit Siang having joined the blogsphere and he is humble enough to ask his readers to call him “Kit”. Image source: Free Malaysia Today

Merdeka Suatu Ketika Dulu
31 haribulan Ogos. Hari Kemerdekaan negara tercinta kita.
Saya masih ingat lagi semasa saya masih di alam persekolahan dulu. Saya dan rakan-rakan saya sememangnya menunggu hari tersebut. Maklumlah kita cuti sekolah. Apa lagi, kita pun membuat rancangan kita untuk bersiar-siar kat ibukota sebelah petang pada Hari Kemerdekaan. Sebab di sebelah pagi, kita boleh dikatakan “agak bersemangat” untuk menonton perarakan Hari Kemerdekaan di televisyen.… [Click to read the rest] “Merdeka Suatu Ketika Dulu”
For Merdeka, please raise your hand!
Tuanku Abdul Rahman: I raise my hand to shout “Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka”.
It was the pivotal moment in our country’s history when we finally said that we are going to do it OUR way. We are going to start anew…we are going to built a nation irrespective the color of our skin.… [Click to read the rest] “For Merdeka, please raise your hand!”
This should inspire us!
.
As I was reading about an article about the science of Lance Armstrong, I am truly amazed of his achievements: winning the Tour de France for the 7th consecutive victory.
