Little Man.........

Hmmm... I'm big fan of the Wayan Brothers in their In Living Color shows (which propelled Jim Carey into stardom and featured Jennifer Lopez [who we didn't know at the time and her a** was the size of Alaska!]) and their hilarious Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996), I heard a little blurb about the movie from Patrick and Gang from the Nobody Likes Onions podcast. I had to check out the news myself... its confirmed. The latest effort from the Wayans is the #5 worst movie ever made. lookit this!

IMDB Bottom 100

And its currently playing in Malaysia! It sucks! Go watch it! waste your money today!

P.S. I'm Not planning to watch this....

Perfect Strangers - Deep Purple

Can you remember remember my name
As I flow through your life
A thousand oceans I have flown
And cold spirits of ice
All my life
I am the echo of your past

I am returning the echo of a point in time
Distant faces shine
A thousand warriors I have known
And laughing as the spirits appear
All your life
Shadows of another day

And if you hear me talking on the wind
Youve got to understand
We must remain
Perfect strangers

I know I must remain inside this silent well of sorrow

A strand of silver hanging through the sky
Touching more than you see
The voice of ages in your mind
Is aching with the dead of the night
Precious life (your tears are lost in
Falling rain)

And if you hear me talking on the wind
Youve got to understand
We must remain
Perfect strangers

Was browsing around, i wus specifically looking for a Japanese car import site.. (Yes I'm still hoping to own a S15 Silvia before I turn 40!). Found one at the back of a UK Jap tuning mag. The Site: www.yam3.com . when go to the site tho, this is what i got:

Yeah, sorry for the convenience indeed. Which then reminded me of another site, one that specifically on bad grammar & spelling on English in Japan. Some of you might know this site: www.engrish.com. Here's a few "gems" i nicked from the site:

Oh my, this sign gives a whole new meaning to "sex at work". One more


Now men can ovulate too! Last one. And its from Glico who makes the very delish chocolate Rocky ( or Pockey as its called outside Malaysia.. more on that in another post) Pity their English could be better!

Of Podcasts & Podcasting

I'm beginning to think that i'm a really slow adopter of technology. After hearing about Podcasting for ages, i finally gave it a try. Initially introduced for the iPod bla bla bla... it has grown into a tech explosion around the world. I really think its cool to be able to select audio content that YOU want and listen to it on the fly or save it to listen to later. Since iTunes refused to work on my Notebook, I looked around and found Juice. Its free, its open source. Perfect.

Spent a little bit of time figuring out how it worked and then I started looking some podcasts worthy of my time. Boy, talk about standing on the edge of an ocean. Lots and lots of them out there. Noteworthy links out there were www.podcast.net, www.podcastdirectory.com, www.ipodder.org and many more. You could look in iTunes itself under the "Music Store" section for Podcasts. But since i got lotsa other things to sort out before tonight's TransMY Yumcha: Return of the Ancient Ones [9.30 onwards, Sukumaran's SS14, Subang Jaya], i just chose to get a few, rather Catholic in nature [e-mail me for sites] and will continue to look for more as the days go by...

So get out there and immerse yerself into this if you havent already! Next chance I get, I'll explore Video Podcasting and let you all know about it. Now, i need to go downstairs and get the Memory Stick from the car to load up on some podcasts to hear on the way back home.

Have a good weekend all. Tomorrow I go to watch "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest". And prepare for a horribly tough week ahead. Ta!

Little wing by Korean girl

This is a song that my band does in EVERY gig that we do. Of course we mix up jimi hendrix's version, Stevie Ray's Version and add some singing to it from the Corrs' version. But check this girl out! dammit! ah nevah seen this kinda playin' in mah life! wow!

The Clash - I Fought the Law but the Law Won..

15th July - Saturday Morning. I'm writing this on kewlpad (click for more on that) to be published on Monday when I get back to the office cos i got no Internet in the house. Don't really think I need to install it at home anyway cos I'm never home long enough to use it! So in the morning, i wus busy making cucur udang (prawn fritters) for breakfast while wifey told me she was going outside to hang out the clothes. While i was busy mixing up the batter I suddenly heard some music from the front of the house. "Oh.. wifey must have turned on some cd for us to listen to". What took me by surprise was the music itself.. I thought I was dreaming when I heard the wailing Guitars of Joe Strummer and Mick Jones as they launched full force into the opening bars of "Complete Control". The Clash were in the house! Yes, wifey explained later that this was the only CD she could find. It was my precious copy of The Clash: From Here to Eternity - Live.

http://www.crazylovestore.com/catalog/images/clashfromhere229.jpg

I remember my first encounter with the Clash. It was years ago and Channel V was airing a Clash advertisement for a special on the band that they were going to air soon. Intrigued as to who they were, I did my research and ended up buying that album wifey had just put on.(I also bought the "Super Black Market Clash" Album but some bastard borrowed it and never returned it!). I never got to watch the Channel V special. But I had discovered a brilliant, brilliant punk+reggae band that looked good, played well, sang reasonably well and wrote sensitive songs that brought an acute awareness to the changing socio-political landscape of UK in the late 70's and early 80's.

This CD featured the line up of the previously mentioned Joe Strummer and Mick Jones who featured on guitars and vocals. Joining them was Paul Simonon on Bass and vocals. Last but not least was Topper Headon on drums. Here's a couple of mentions of the band from the CD Liner notes:

"Masonic Auditorium. Detroit 1978. A packed house. Lights go down, band goes on. After the first number, an empty whiskey bottle crashes near Joe's (Strummer) feet. He laughs. 'Is that the best you got?' In an instant, hundreds of bottles rain down on the stage....whizzing past Mick's ear, smashing into Topper's kit. Amazingly, the band played on undettered. This band will do nicely, I thought."
    -David

I would have loved to be there!

"The Clash's second visit to the Boston Orpheum. The bouncers weren't letting people dance. Joe saw this and said. 'Lets do a test and find out how smart everyone is. We're going to turn out the lights for 30 seconds '. Out went the lights, and when they they came on there were bodies jumping from the balcony and bodies climbing over chairs and fighting with security to get closer to the stage. And 100 feet in the MIDDLE of the crowd -Mr Joe Strummer himself!. No other band backed their words with action like The Clash."
    - Brian

Last one,

"The Clash were the greatest rock 'n' roll band there ever has been. They had three frontmen. Most groups don't even have one. They had the greatest singer who was your best mate, the best guitar player with the best moves and the coolest, most handsome bass player in punk rock. Live, The Clash were the most exciting band you could ever see. They made a joke out of modern rock bands. They had a conscience. They never sold out . Respect."
    - Alan

So that was how fans felt about The Clash. I loved every song they ever made. But not every thing was rosy, go read the wiki. Peace.

Innovation: Prepaid Credit Cards vs Personalised Credit Cards

Next generation of credit cards

KUALA LUMPUR: Look at it as the new generation of credit cards in Malaysia's endeavour to become a cashless society.

compare and contrast this with :

Are you ready for the most original credit card?
Wouldn't it be nice to show your personality whenever you shop? KBC is the first Belgian bank offering you that possibility to be creative! The process is a very user-friendly one. Just up-load your favourite photo, maybe your family, your pet, a recent vacation, even yourself. Position it and a few days later you can collect your personalized card at your local KBC agency. This is another nice example of mass-customization and personalization of products/services.
Feel free to have a look at www.mijnkbckaart.be.

                                          

Customised credit cards. Only in Belgium

I'm a German Fanboy 4 Life!

    Its 5:33 am. My World Cup just ended minutes ago. A fantastic strike in the dying minutes by Grosso followed by another brilliant one from Del Piero just killed of my team's dream of winning the World Cup on their own soil. Germany played this semi-final filled with anxiety, bad passing and plenty nervy moments. The Italians tho, were superb. hitting the post twice in the first minutes of extra time. That still doesn't stop me from supporting Germany. Hang on a bit,just got a sms... ah..good ol' English Fan Dave King..."F@#k the Germans"... that what it says. Hmmm... nah...I'm straight thanks. Not like the English did any better tho'

This year marks the 20th year of me supporting Deutschland. I switched from supporting England half-way during the 1986 to Germany. The frst game i watched? Germany vs Mexico. Wow. Do remember tho, these were the years of Franz Beckenbauer as coach. The game was mechanical, some say boring and not as lively as the South Americans. Still, the disciplined play attracted me. That continued in the Euro 1988. Watching it alone (as usual) dissappointment again as they crashed out to eventual winners Holland. 1990, Form 4. I was in a new school and the ONLY German fan in the whole school.  First time I bet on my fav team. The stakes? simple, 50 cents a goal. Germany won the first game 4-1 against Yugoslavia. I was RM 1.50 richer. Then came chicken pox and I got to watch the whole World Cup from bed. Then the England, Germany semis.  I nearly died when Chris Waddle hit the post. Tension mounted. Extra time, Penalties. One by one, they rolled in. Then Chris Waddle stepped up. This guy was famous at the time for free-kicks and penalties. He missed. Germany went to the finals and an extra bonus for me was my fav player, Andreas Brehme scored the winning penalty. My team had just won the World Cup and I couldn't even lift my arms in victory cos I was covered in chicken pox boils and scabs.

Euro 1992. Can't remember a thing except Germany crashing out to Denmark in the finals. World Cup 1994.  The Unified German squad looked like a star-studded team. They were too good. They lost to Bulgaria in the Semis. Dissapointment again. Euro 1996, Klinsman, Kuntz, Sammer, Helmer, Eilts, Reuter.... these names figured in every game that Germany played. Then came the semis. Arch nemesis England again. Hah! they don't call the Germans the masters of the penalty shootout again. It was VERY satisfiying to see the arrogant Paul Gascoine bawling his eyes out for the second time! Meanwhile, the Germans were fielding this substitute named Oliver Bierhoff as a striker off and on.  Then came the final. Then we found out who Bierhoff REALLY was. Wow!

World Cup 1998. This was where I grew REALLY disgusted with my team. Bloody Berti Voghts! 2 guys sent off in that semi with Croatia and you send in ANOTHER striker? bollocks! Shebby Singh could have done better! Euro 2000. I was drunk in Johor Baru and could hardly remember a thing. Germany lost disgracefully to Portugal in their final group match. Didn't even make it out of the group. World Cup 2002. I was working in shifts in a call center and missed most of Germany's game. Caught them against the US, Korea, Northern Ireland (I know its not in order). I made it home on time for the final. Again, they fell to a superb Brazillian side. By now my enthusiasm for Germany had slumped pretty badly and I refused to watch Euro 2004.

Then this year came along. Klinsi is the coach and Bierhoff the GM? Too wierd for me. Khan making way for Lehman? I hate Lehman. So I sat and watched. At Home or even in the mamak shop. Wow they were good! Der Wundertwins Klose and Podolski were firing on all cylinders. Then came the Italy game. Germany saw Dortmund. And died.

Bravo! Germany For the effort. Well done Klinsi. Like one of my Directors likes to put it, hard luck. 20 wonderful years and many more to go. Deutschland uber alles!

6:10 am already? time to get to work. I'll get this up when I get into the office.
