Everything you can see and feel will one day perish

Jalan jalan at Shaw building and spotted this. Save up as many as you can and bring it together with you to grave.

Sunbath day - crowded Taman Seresi food garden

William has been coughing for months, we brought him to Gleneagle child specialist. After that we lunch in at this newly open food garden, the place is damn crowded, but the food, to my surprise, was good, contrary to the myth that food would de-improve after renovation.

You got to be fast to "chop" sit, the place is 人山人海.

Monarchy is better than Democracy

I establish the colony on the first site by the sea and some rivers; I know this small little fishing village will eventually grow into a thriving city, housing many specialists and professional. That was the vision and hope.
The red barbarian from the North keep pestering me, I would have to send two legion of Phalanx before they vanish for good.

I never bother about my state religion selection; they are lame and serve no purpose. Who cares about the spiritual well being of a Nation when you have built many wonders? And who would bother with happiness when you hold the most advance military technology in the region?

My workers have no problem with slavery, all I have to do was secure some luxury resources and bring in from some trade route and they work like minks for me.

When I was asked to select a government type, I choose Universal Suffrage, where all man and women have the equal rights to choose and vote. Frankly said, although I like and would choose democratic for my people, but I am the only person who make all the major and minor decision, I tell them to build gambling den, they would not build a school; I say go to war, they dare not chicken out. I don’t even have to ask them to vote for me.

I love that kind of feeling. I am the King and everything in the Nation belongs to me.

The only emancipation my people will get is when I am gone, or when it is 2 am in the morning and I have to click the “Quit Game” button.

I can never have enough fun with Civilization IV.

The Gizmo Project!

While my whole office have essentially convert to using Skype, the Gizmo Project looks good! and even claims that it will overshadowed Skype Soon. (Link)

Road block again for the major fireworks festival

Want to go there, take public transport, private cars are not allow. Better still, avoid going there all together.

Ranking

I did a silly research, whether will ranking of a blog affect personality of the author.

I found out thus far, holding a General or Colonel on some third class statistic site doesn’t really make you:

Smarter or wiser
More interesting and understanding
More handsome or beautiful
Better.... etc

For example, if you are a big mouth bitch or some kind of low class adult content provider, hitting number 1 in the box office this week doesn’t automatic make you very important to the world we live in. Just look at yourself in the mirror, did any thing change?

Off course, this research is from some low ranking loser, you can safely ignore this.

Vaccine for chaos?

Imagine what would happen if Human is immune to HIV? Suddenly multiple sex partners would not be a problem anymore. The culture of free sex will prosperous. Prostitution will become a norm, even engaging in unnatural sex wouldn't scare people off.

Thinking along this line, developing a cure or vaccine for AIDS/HIV some how doesn't seem like a wonderful ideas, is like giving a immunity passport to the demon, allow it to wreak havoc among man. No hell for sinner, so you don't have to repent.

Otherwise this is a good news. (Link) Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is pumping 15 million into the research for a HIV vaccine.

90% of affair outside marriage never work

What have he got to gain? think about it!

Silly putty cannot stand

When I read Boingboing post about silly putty, I didn't expect it to be so much fun, until I've got hold of some myself, that is.
Silly putty is in a solidify liquid state always, it looks and feels like plastic clay, but go ahead, make a great pyramid, in no time it will "melt" down into a pool of goo. Stick it under a ceiling, slowly the silly goo will drip down, like watching slow motion movie. Paste it to a wall, tomorrow you will see a long stretch of dry goo from where you paste down to about 4 feet long.

I play it again, I played for whole day. The only other thing that I am tempted to try, but yet to try is heating it up to see whether it will turn to a real solid.

This goo makes you look silly. (Link)

You can watch my video of how a putty drip from the ceiling in 5 minutes time. (Link)

Map of Gaza probably from Google Earth

I stumble upon this map of war stricken Gaza while Googling for Beth Callender's blog. I don't know how recent was this map, but Gaza doesn't looks good, or it never has been.

Beth is an American living in Lebanon, read her daily weblog on the everyday bombing there, and pray for them.

Dell weblog hilariously similar to a porn site

Dell recently launches a weblog One2one, aim to have a direct conversation with their client, probably to recoup their bad publicity on the web recently. But, if you go to google one2one, you will see few different one2one, the first one, on top of Dell, is a porno web site. Try to resist from clicking on it. (Link)

Bad choice of weblog name, Dell!
