The Fourth Attempt At 6:49

High Times are killing me

2006-06-22T10:27:00.000+08:00

Sorry, blog. Been very the busy one, ecocillus website is 80% done. So far i have't received any feedbacks on the layout nor design.

High time to setlle all my personal debts

High time to do the above before i quit my job

High time to go back to NZ tonight for a toast on mango lassi

High time to get some sleep, for i've been sleeping for 2-3 hours for the past 3 days

High time for THE STAR to stop being prejudice to Muslims (that's right Mr. STAR Chief Editor, we do realize that)

High time for Estee Lauder's owner. He bought Gustav Klimt's painting at USD135 mil. The painting, 1907 Adele Bloch-Bauer I (bloch as in bleach or as in bloke or as in block, anybody?). That shades of gold and silver are exactly the materials that made the painting. They are gold and silver leafs applied to the canvas. 135 mil, the most expensive deniros ever being paid for a painting. Ever. That reminds me of a guy somewhere on earth who are painting with vomit. Mind you, it's not in apple green or disgusting brown. But of multiple shades of colors. I've seen it somewhere, i think it was Ripley's believe it or not. It just struck me, does he have to down 1 jug of unmixed ribena and full cream to get the nice shade of light purple, while having a clothpeg pinching his nose? It's fine, i'll stick with pen and paper.

(As received thru my Gmail. I don't endorse the aunthencity of this article/photo. My thoughts as I was reading are in blue)

Begini ceritanya..., tulisan ini awalnya ditulis dalam bahasa Cina kemudian diterjemahkan ke dalam bahasa Inggris (kemudian ke dalam bahasa Indonesia). Seorang guru sejarah melakukan riset (research?), dan tentu saja foto ini adalah nyata dan benar-benar ada. Berasal dari tahun 1920-an, dari sebuah desa di Cina. Umur sang gadis 17 tahun. Ia berasal dari keluarga yang berada dan kaya,dan dengan kekuatan uang (duit?), ia berhasil mendapatkan lelaki idamannya.

Pria tersebut berumur 19 tahun, dan cukup populer (glamer?) di mata para gadis-gadis karena ketampanannya. Mereka bertunangan, tetapi upacara pernikahan secara resmi Belum terlaksana, dan sang gadis meniggal karena demam tinggi pada Tahun 1922. Sang pria tidak ingin menjalani ritual tradisional menikah dengan orang yang telah mati, dan memutuskan untuk melarikan diri dan menjadi tentera (asykar?). Tetapi, seperti telah disebutkan, sang gadis berasal dari keluarga yang kaya, dan anggota keluarganya berhasil membawa sang pria untuk kembali, kemudian sang pria dipaksa untuk menjalani ritual menikah dengan gadis yang telah mati.

Foto ini diambil pada tengah malam, ketika sang gadis telah mati selama 6 hari. Mereka harus menyangga (menahan?) tubuh sang gadis dengan papan kayu, agar (jelly?) dapat berdiri dengan tegak. Perhatikan bahwa kaki sang gadis tidak menyetuh tanah secara penuh? Dan juga, 2 baris huruf Cina, satu barisnya di tulis secara terbalik, yang dikatakan diperuntukkan bagi yang telah mati.

Mereka mengatakan jika anda menatap foto dengan waktu relatif lama dan jika sang gadis tersenyum balik kepada anda, hal buruk akan terjadi kepada anda (ye la tu....). Ini karena sang pria tidak ingin menjalani ritual tersebut, namun, sang pria sangat miskin, dan tidak dapat melakukan apapun pada waktu itu. Sang gadis sangat mencintainya, dan memaksanya untuk bertunangan. Menyeramkan??? Anda yang menentukan... Saya tidak merasa Ataupun melihat sang gadis tersenyum balik kepada saya... Anda??? Mengikut sumber yg dipercayai, gambar ini adalah original. Lihat pada muka pengantin pompuan. Nmpk yg mata dan pipi pompuan tu jatuh, tanda sudah mati dengan mulut yg terbuka sedikit, itu biasa terjadi pada orang yg dah mati kerana otot rahang dah tak berfungsi. Diferent (berlainan?)dgn pengantin lelaki, muka dia masih utuh (dekat ngan Utah). Kaki perempuan tu pun tak jejak tanah, sebab diaorang guna papan untuk mendirikan mayat tersebut. Macam mana diaorang dirikan...tak tau la plak...

Perversion? No.... It's Kangadawg!

On Meng's request, you'll find here cats and dogs in camaraderie, ornamenting a rack in my house. I bought them from one of the home improvements shops on 2nd floor of Midvalley. RM1.00 each! I broke the middle dawg into 2, just to find out what are they made of, because they're so light. Amazingly lighter than a 50 cent coin. Curiosity broke the dawg and they are made of wood fibres, in some ways.

Check out the third dog from the left, it has something protruding out. If your guess is its penis, than you are just a natural shagger, but sorry, wrong guess.

(Ahh why can't we live along like these cats and dogs.....)

(Down boy! It's a female dog la..... (Beeyaajjj?) with its
puppy poking out. A kanga-dog kot....
(kangaroo + dog)

You want aa? I sell you lor..... 1 million ringgit can aaa? can la.... cheap cheap one....

Today on Mix.FM during the Battle of the Sexes. Shaz the DJ was quizzing 2 listeners (let's call them Guy and Girl) of the opposite sex, don't know where Richard is. Check this conversation out. I had the best laugh today so far this morning. Words in bracket indicate the actual spelling, while the words preeceding the brackets are the way they sound on Mix.FM. * is where Shaz quoted and sang a line from "Let's call the whole thing off" by Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald. So here we go :

Shaz : Okay guy, next question, what does brand Gohdaiva (GODIVA) relate to? A. Cosmetic, B. Chocolate or C. Watches

Guy : Sorry, what's that name again?

Shaz : Gohdaiva (GODIVA), some people say Gohdeeva (GODIVA). You know like in, *you say puhjahmas (PYJAMAS), I say peejamas (PYJAMAS)*. So, Guy, Gohdeeva(GODIVA), is A. Cosmetic, B. Chocolate or C. Watches.

Guy : (confidently and abruptly) Peejamas!

Shaz, Girl : (break into a big laugh)

Shaz : (still laughing) no! it's chocolate!

Me, almost went over the divider laughing.

2nd cake eating fest of the week

2006-05-26T16:53:00.000+08:00

It's Too's birthday this Sunday, and we decided to do a small cake cutting today. At least they did. This is the 2nd birthday of the week, 2nd Secret Recipe's cake of the week. My company celebrates its staffs birthday all the time. Despite not being part of our perks or contractual

(some of the people whom i work with. yes, lotsa sisters. In case you're wondering, we're not hiring)

benefits i think it is a good practice. You know what I'm talking about. A brief repetitious event where everybody comes in, sing the song, clap clap clap, cut the cake, eat the cake and head back to our seats. Something like a joyous coffee or cigarette break. I dont know about where you work, but we do this almost 28 times a year!

Maybe we oughta get some clowns for the next birthday around. Maybe I'll be the clown if i reached the 10-year mark working here, for some reasons. Anyway, happy birthday Too!

(1st round of cake gone in split second)

(2nd round of cake gone before my CEO says "Eat!")

Soul Patrol, Soul Patrol, Soul Patrol

2006-05-26T09:24:00.000+08:00

...and the the american idol is.... Taylor Hicks!!!! yeah man!
well could have been elliot. I get goosebumps when elliot sings.
By the way, Meat Loaf sucks big time live :O

I was watching the american idols in between "the frog who turns into a prince" taiwanese soap (read: sappy soap). Coz my mate was persistent in watching it. it is about a guy who lost his memory and later regain it back just discover he is one wealthy dude (and never been looking like a prince and still croaking :O !)

The Soul Patrol or The McPheever

2006-05-24T15:53:00.000+08:00

I've never followed any Idols franchise ever, but in this season I'm hooked. This time around I think American Idols offers good contestants. Ok, not Ace, but people like Mandisa, Kevin or Paris who almost has talent but not the look. Before, to choose between the top 3 finalists was really tough. It was proven by the difference in 50 million votes divided among the top 3. The differences were less than one to each. It's too bad that Elliot Yamin got voted out, I was rooting for him to be in the last 2 finalists. I think Katherine is going to win, though in this duel I be rooting for Taylor. Taylor has that edge of a soul singer, the white motown boy and if he wins, he'll stand out among the others monopolized skinbaring female pop acts, which i think what Katherine might venture into later (regardless of who wins). If stevie wonder could see, he would go "Danggazooka, am I looking in a powdered mirror?". But hey that's what showmanship is all about. Not just voice, man!

Conjuctivitis T-junction : 3 ways

2006-05-24T00:12:00.000+08:00

Conjunctivitis attacks today. My ear infection is still around. Now sort of getting the evil monkeys thing. If I get mouth ulcer, nauzubillah, i'll be exactly like "See no evil, Say no evil and Hear no evil". Sounds like i shouldn't be so nosy in something, which i do know of, BS. By the way, do you know that this monkey business are believed to be originated from Japan? It was out of the carving in one of the Buddhist temple. These monkeys are believed to be wise monkeys and in japanese, "saru" is monkey. Don't you wonder now if Tolkien borrowed "saru" for "saruman"? Hence he's one "bad ass wise monkey man" huh?

Anyway, these wise monkeys are brought into Japan by one Chinese Monks (Dong No Hoo - seriously I "don't know who", beats me) and they represent the diety Vadjra, and the phrase is Vadjra's command to "see no evil, hear no evil and say no evil, so you will be free from it". Well I'm not going to let any statues tell me what to do. My deen is my deen, your deen is your deen. Read more here.

The evolution theory or the denial of creation, which holds that mankind are the offspring of monkeys has crumbled in case you didn't know. As much as how the "world is round" theory crippled the older "world is a just an endless plain" theory. Human don't evolve from monkeys, therefore the stone age is a hoax in that regards. That's a blasphemous thing to say anyway, unless you're an atheist or a heir of Darwin. Harun Yahya and his team did a great job at presenting this hoax in illustration and animation. Check out more :

The Disaster Darwinism Brought to Humanity
A Historical Lie : The Stone Age
The Collapse of Atheism

I'll put my pen down now, no more monkeys.
