    I’d say, if you have a good ear for music, and also a good eye for beautiful 3d animations, don’t miss out on Happy Feet. The soundtrack alone is emotionally moving, not to mention the realism of the environment up North. It’s actually a simple time-tested story of an outcast, for his difference, trying to…

    On Sunday’s news our Minister of Higher Education, Datuk Mustapa Mohamed asks us to stop pointing fingers toward the Government for the low quality of our students. Well, that is actually a valid point, because we tend to point at ONE fault, and forget the others. I’ve always said anything that happens, happens for a…

    Note: Come to think of it, playing gasing in zero-G may result in something. It is in nature that spinning object creates outward force. Space stations create illusions of gravity that way. But who knows, a spinning gasing may inspire a device to actually create a gravitational field? A long long time ago, in a…

    A 3-open-houses-in-a-row trip ended in a 2-open-house-and-loiter session, as the weather discouraged us from braving the traffic to Selayang. A trip to a colleague of mine’s open house, then fetched Kerol, Wan and Ana and off we go to Farrah‘s house in Sg. Besi. A bit of U-turning occured, since somebody missed the block number…

    Herewith, we, as pictured in Exhibit A, apologises for causing severe psycological stress, due to our absence at your semi-open house. As pictured in Exhibit B, we were well on our way until we met with the biggest challenge of driving in KL in the rain: Traffic Jam. We were discouraged, and chose just to…

    Note: This can also be read on IT-Lah! blog At last, Microsoft managed to learn that Malaysians are not using comma ( , ) as a decimal symbol, we don’t group our digits using periods ( . ), and our currency symbol is RM, not R. Our currency also do not use a single decimal…

    I’m wondering. Why is there a similarity, too much of it actually, in offshore entertainment products coming to us recently? I know some analyst or trendsetter would cook up a new trend that will be the “in” thing the next year, but recently, that have been the case in songs and movies. Before this, only…

    MTV had started a show some time ago, entitled “Pimp My Ride“. It was a simple show, of a group of rappers pimping some lucky fella’s ride, to see how much an average car can be pimped, and to show the shocked face in the end. This then, started some cult following, as pimping ones’…
