Manic Street Preachers: Australia & Motorcycle Emptiness
2008-03-04 12:09:04
Songs that describe a certain phase in a person’s life often comes precisely at the time it is most needed. I wasn’t very much of a songwriter back when these two songs were released. Now that I am, I can express myself better. But before that, I relied a lot on songs that were out [...]

Depeche Mode’s Strangelove
2008-03-04 11:30:53
This song I used to live by. Back in ‘88 it meant the world to me. Between ‘91-93 it gave me directions when I was searching for reasons to be where I was. Between ‘96-’97 it brought me out of the chasm of doom. It is a song that described what I used to believe I was [...]

Kasabian’s Club Foot
2008-03-04 11:04:57
Clearly this song shows the writer’s ability to create their own distinctive style of music.  A favourite.

Life on Earth - Bacteria frozen in Antarctic Ice
2008-02-22 02:33:07
I was recently alerted by a friend of mine about the existence of bacteria in ice, not any old ice but ice from frozen lakes in Antarctic a. Browsing the net I found several articles which shed some light on this new-found phenomenon, quite interesting to me since I’m not much of a bacteria sort [...]

What’s Hot and What’s Not, Sat 16 Feb 2008
2008-02-16 10:23:36
What’s Hot: Greek Salad.  I crave for this stuff.  I’m a salad freak.  The olives are the best part, gives me truncated testosterone runs.  Probably not a manly thing to say but like I give a @#$%. What’s Not: Northern Illinois University shooting which so far has claimed 7 lives. My son is my greatest worry when the [...]


Whaling things
2008-02-13 22:15:47
These are some articles and videos of whales taken in their natural habitat. I don’t see why our friends from the land of the rising sun prefer to have them for dinner. Some aspects of culture are better kept as memoirs in history books. I’m glad most of my fellow tribal brothers do not [...]

Earth’s future civilisation may rest in their hands
2008-02-13 21:46:54
My interest with giant squids actually started after I watched a Discovery Channel documentary some time ago about how, in the next cycle of life on Earth (should there be another cycle), the evolution of the squid is predicted to occur such that they will be the most intelligent of all the surviving species on [...]


Phantom car - real or hoax?
2008-02-12 00:13:01
I found this in youtube. You decide whether it’s real or otherwise. I think it’s real. But then again I watched Blair witch project and thought it was real. Enjoy the vid, folks.

The Davos Question - Is there a point to be made (that we don’t know of yet)?
2008-01-28 10:12:08
I’ve been reading a bit and watching YouTube videos on peoples’ responses from all over the world on the Davos question: What one thing do you think that countries, companies or individuals must do to make the world a better place in 2008? Interesting question. One that is asked time and time again, year after [...]

Read the excerpts below which I wrote for a publicity/promotional article, which I believe will be released in one of the local papers [...]

Malaysian Economic Agenda
2008-03-16 05:03:43
Check out this post by Elizabeth Wong.  Worth your 5 minutes if you’re Malaysian and you’ve just gotten over the shock of the ruling government losing their two-thirds majority in the recent election. And enjoy the cartoon.  I bitch about how the government spends my tax cut. Hopefully in the future it is spent wisely by [...]

Sometimes I feel like a penguin

Sometimes I feel like a penguin.  You know what you’re talking about but no one listens to you because you’re a penguin.

Avenues for Alternative Thoughts
2008-03-15 11:34:09
I was going to scribble my opinion on politics but then I thought, what do I know about politics. Then I thought again, what does anyone out there who talks about politics know about politics? So here I am writing about what I think of politics. Malaysia just got over their 12th national election this [...]

Michael Clayton I am
2008-04-07 12:54:59
The movie Michael Clayton starring George Clooney has had a tremendous impact on me ever since I first watched it about 3 weeks ago. Reason being of course because I could relate profoundly to it, with the way how things are going with my own life, career-wise and also on a more personal level. [...]


Dealing with the tides in one’s life
2008-04-12 13:58:07
This past week has seen me working my butt off on one of my projects with my current employer.  I had to prepare for a very important report presentation and days before the actual day itself, I was having anxious thoughts and on-the-edge sort of sensation running through my veins. It’s not that I’ve never [...]


What can you and I do?
2008-04-18 13:13:37
Lack of basic needs. Rush to acquire basic needs. Tribal tensions erupted. Civil wars. Unnecessary killing. Food depletion, hunger. More unnecessary killings. Genocide. Darfur now. If you can’t help Darfur, at least help yourself to be thankful for what you have every fucking day of your life.


The Fierce Urgency of Now
2008-04-18 12:45:43
I’m not much of a follower of the current US presidential campaign, but every now and again when I watch the world news and I hear this on-gong debate thing between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, I would wonder - how sincere are these individuals in walking their talk later on should one of them [...]

Pride In the Name of Love
2008-04-18 12:29:14
The theme of love governs plentiful of songs written ever since song-writing existed. This love song is expressed in every possible angle that love can be seen to be at work, be it the love for a person, persons, a whole nation, a belief, an ethnic group, anything. It’s a song that enabled plentiful other [...]

Appetite for Destruction: Eat to Live or Live to Eat?
2008-04-27 11:55:44
I’m not much of an eating person. I eat only to fill up my duty as a human person who is required to furnish himself with grub three times a day at a routinely time throughout. of course there are the in-between snacks and titbits but that’s minor in my daily eating habits. I have been [...]

Layla….You got me on my knees
2008-05-03 12:49:05
Some things are simply better left unsaid.  Layla by Ol’ Slowhand himself.  Damn excellent song. Nuff said.  I now dig my own grave to announce my unworthiness of this contribution to the world’s music industry for all time. Eric Clapton, ladies and gentlemen.


A Beautiful Lie
2008-05-03 12:29:59
Currently my favourite song.  The facts behind the song is what moved me. Emo rock delivered pretty well by Jared and his friends.

The Fury of Nargis over Irrawady Delta
2008-05-07 07:20:28
On Saturday, nature ordered Cyclone Nargis to unleash its best-kept fury on a population of about 5 million Myanmarese over the Irrawady Delta . It was possibly the wettest hell on earth this year. Up until now, the death toll is over 22,000. I came across this Youtube video which talked about the drastic rise in prices [...]
