would you ?..

i know this may sound a bit morbid but...would anyone be interested to buy a life insurance or a personal assurance policy to benefit the poor and/or needy ? i was just wondering to myself....

a lot of us lead quite comfortable lives really and some of us even lead excessively extravagant lives and would have thought nothing of splashing a couple of hundred of ringgit on things that we might not really need. i know there are a lot of people in need out there. a lot of children and poor people roaming the streets at night, foraging for food or in seek of shelter and i know there are also a lot of NGOs out there and social support organisations already taking care of these people. But even so, these organisations need all the funds they can get to keep their support activities running smoothly.

so..if some of us could just put aside a little bit of money every month towards an insurance policy, some kids or old folks out there could just benefit in the event that we pass on suddenly..

...so, for maybe a RM10K policy, might just be peanuts that you have to fork out for the monthly premiums. and RM10K may not be much, but collectively, it may create some meaning for these organisations, what do you think? and i'm sure you would have bought million dollar policies to provide for your immediate families already, so what's another 10K ya? plus, nowadays we get free PA coverage from our credit card companies and a whole lot of other institutions..so those could actually be used to benefit the poor..at no costs to us anyway, just make sure you mention who your benefactor is..

so, would you consider spending a few ringgit a month for such a policy? please check with your own insurance companies if they can do this for you, tell them you want to list out such and such an organisation as the beneficiary...i know you have a beautiful heart in there, do please share it..

p/s: i have done it..would you share your love too?

dont talk shit !!

[ dont talk shit, dont talk shit....i i i i i i i i i repeat 3 times, dont talk shit !!!! ]

i am so glad Al Jazeera brought this toad out from inside his coconut shell for the whole world to witness. sad to say but that's the kind of quality we sometimes have in our parliament..!! OMG, how nauseating to think that people like him makes decisions that somehow affect our lives...

and as a Malaysian, i have to say this to the world community..I am So SORRY..I am just as embarassed to witness such an event and I sure hope you dont think that all Malaysians are like what you are seeing here......







p/s: the majority of us are definitely not like that..we are really really very mild mannered asians, with years and years of culture and values behind us..so it is not in us to talk like that, to demonstrate rabidly with animal heads on the streets or to clamp down on the use of the internet just becoz it says bad things about us that are so untrue....so dont talk shit ok?? :)

free modem ah..!!

..come get it, got promotional price some more ah..wah !!!..

except it dont really work. i just signed up on a Maxis 6.0GB package, with supposed capability of supporting download speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps for a promotional fee of RM98 per month..the catch is, i found out that i'd have to stand under the sun, out in open air, holding my netbook for the connection to proceed, or if i want faster broadband internet speeds, i would have to do my surfing at their service centre..hah !! (the service centre is located less than 500m away from my office some more..) and i have had computer technicians (few of them actually, let's not even mention the amount i paid for their services) tested it out and none could solve the problem...

BUT..if i put my maxis 7.2 Mbps SIM card into my old USB modem that is capable of supporting speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps, then it works fantastic, even inside my office building..

So..now i suspect, it's probably because the infrastructure or "hardware" for the 7.2 Mbps is not that widely available to support the new high speed modem, unless of course, i'm surfing near to or at their service centre.

Has anyone out there who has recently signed up on any network's so-called high speed 7.2 Mbps broadband service gotten the same problem? i would be very keen to find out..




p/s: i've also tried other "open" USB modems with the same quoted 7.2 Mbps capability with my Maxis bb SIM card and the same problem remained but works nicely with any type of 3.6 Mbps USB modem..!!

finally, i got confirmation from their service centre fellas that perhaps it's because their 7.2 Mbps network is not stable yet, meaning not fully established in my area, and that's why i could not connect..and they had the nerve to tell me that i could cancel my maxis broadband and use other "slower" networks if i wanted to..!! (damn..and i had gone from lousy streamyx to lousy celcom broadband to this..looks like i got 2 more options left to choose..celaka semua..)

knn..!! early2 say lah, after all the trouble i went through, now they tell me this !! basket..some more dare to put advertisement so big2 in the newspaper everyday...!!

..got a chicken stuck..

...in my throat...

was having dinner at my current favorite joint yesterday..Popeye's Fried Chicken outlet in TTDI. this time i refrained myself from gorging down on excess grub and just ordered a two piece set that came with the usual mash and mash (i usually trade the coleslaw for another mash) and a soft drink. this time, i chose to sit by the window over-looking the busy pasar malam stalls below and was about to swallow my first bite of their truly tasty finger licking chicken when i noticed a man or half of him from where i could see, sitting almost near the middle of the road peddling something...that piece of chicken got stuck in my throat when i squinted my eyes and realized that the man was actually only half...meaning he had no legs!! he was just sitting on his bum or whatever there is left when a person has no legs. his left arm stopped right at his elbow..only the right arm appeared normal from where i could see..

damn..i nearly choked on that piece of chicken. i decided to just eat the mash and gulped down my mirinda grape to ease the passage of that chicken down my throat. i then decided to order a take-away 2-piece set meal for the fella. good thing they made me wait as what i got was freshly fried chicken. if only the biscuit had just come out from the oven, that would have been really perfect..but anyway, i took it to him and placed it in front of him and gave him a pat on the shoulder and very quietly walked away..i watched him from behind and saw him open the plastic bag, took a good sniff of what's inside and then closed it back tightly and placed it protectively by his side...probably saving the food for later...that moment really broke my heart..




..i did not want to alarm him, so i took these pics from his back. i noted that he was probably a foreigner and he was selling something but i dont think anyone was buying but yet, he had an open plastic bag in front of him containing a few ringgit notes. i also noted as i observed from a distance that there were the occasional people who dropped some money in his bag but mostly, people would just walk past him like he was just a tree stump that sprouted from the road...the cars were zooming pass him too like on an obstacle course..

i know..i know..some of you may say that, hey, he's just being put there by some syndicate to beg for money and knowing malaysians are generally (?? really??) softies at heart, he's just a product used to make money. he could have been smuggled in from vietnam, (for a brief moment, i thought he may have been a victim of agent orange..coz i dont think anyone could have survived if he had had an accident and had his limbs torn off that way leaving what this guy had left.) by the syndicate to block the streets of KL for sympathy..BUT hey, i dont care how he got there or what his purpose is but no human being should ever be placed in that position...

i had a sleepless night. i cried in my heart for what i saw. i felt helpless..what in the world have we become..?

p/s: if any of u guys are in the ttdi pasar malam area on sundays and u are a softie like me, do buy him a nice take-away meal instead of dropping off cash..he can be seen with his back to the kfc outlet, facing pak pa nasi lemak stall...if i decide to start a mobile free kitchen, would anyone be interested?

..i dunno what..

..it is that is bugging me lately but i kinda feel real restless..can't even put my finger on it..hmm. i know it's not related to my work or money..god knows i got plenty of those (i meant the work bit..) to keep me busy. been feeling really tired physically too..but it's not like i haven't been sleeping well or what. and i just got myself a new mobile phone very very recently again, so it's not like i am bored with nothing to do..and yet, i just feel completely detached, lethargic and so so numb...so what's wrong with me ??

does anyone ever feel like that some times ? do you ..?

..oh wow..

....another year just came and went...just like that..

but i'm still twenty eight..haha
went up genting to stay and gambled away three whole days. it was fun, really, so much fun to just throw away money...hahaha. i lost RM20. i'm a good gambler you see. i walk away when i win, i also walk away when i loose...

next year, i think i would just go to phuket and sun myself away for a week. eat lots of fresh seafood, and just while the time away..i miss those days when i used to travel a lot. used to travel everywhere on company expense, used to stay at the finest hotels and eat at the best restaurants for free...yeah, i miss those days. nowadays, everything comes out from my own pocket, how sad...haha but i'm still having the best days of my life..

anyway, here's wishing everyone Gong Xi Fa Cai...Happy Chinese New year !!

this is really funny..

..and so obscene..hahaha..!! (Rated-R)

how come i never saw this scene one when i watched the movie??..
