இ Trains ~ PUSH:PUSH:PUSH..

Arab student sends an email... Dear Dad, Berlin is wonderful, people are nice and I really like it here. But Dad, I am a bit ashamed to arrive at my college in my White Gold Mercedes, when all my Teachers travel by train. Your Son Nasser Sometime later, Nasser gets a reply from his Dad: Loving son, Twenty Million Dollars transferred to your account. Please stop embarrassing us, go and get yourself a train too. Your Dad Quote: "If you born poor, it's not your mistake. But if you die poor it's your mistake ~ Bill Gates How we wished to have such a mis-understanding dad! Have read a few postings and comments on our local train...

இ Dead Slow Tortoise Speed

Not very sure it's because of the Waka Waka from South Africa that 'vuvuzela-ed' the internet speed. Obviously the sound pressure of 120 dB would not slow down the internet speed but certainly would deafen the ears. In actual fact the sound of Vuvuzelas (learned the word from foongpc's Random notes #13) has attracted the whole world to logon the internet and more or less can safely say it's most likely one of the prime culprits. Made a few complaints to TM regarding  the dead slow speed of the 1.0M package and was advised by the technical team to run a test and lodge a complain which I did. Based on the results I need to choose the...

இ Happy Papa's Day ~ <搭錯車> 酒矸倘賣嘸?

Happy Papa's Day to All Dear Fathers! Yes this is a Great Day to celebrate with Papas. Bananaz would only have sweet memories of my Papa and truly loves this part of the lyrics literally translated from the Mandarin song and it's specially dedicated to my dear beloved late Papa. [Without heaven there is no earth,Without earth there is no home,Without home there is no you,Without you there is no me]. No doubt my Papa a typical Chinaman, not expressive with loving words outwardly had never ever said "I Love You" to me before in his entire life but feeling his love and good vibes is already a blessings. If given a chance to rewind the clock would...

இ Who ¿ Blog IDOL 2009?

Was just pondering what will a Blogger normally do first thing when lay fingers on the keyboard after booting up? As a routine I will download my emails and later return to read them and next thing would click on  a few blogspot to allow them time to upload. I wonder you guys do check and click at the sidebars of any blogs that you visited? Must admit I seldom do that and kept seeing this "Trophy" thingy with the words ~ "Blog Idol 2009" at the sidebar of 'Panda' aka foongpc but did not ask about it until I participated in Blog Idol 2010 then only I found out what this Blog Idol is all about. Guess who's Blog Idol 2009? Some may have known...

இ WRONG NUMBER

Early this morning [SK] posted about some bad telephone etiquette and one of it is wrong number calling and what a coincidence an email sent by a friend comes in timely to add-on to his entry. A 'wrong number' in the wee hours could sometimes be a big issue and that might strain the relationship of a lovely couple especially when the wife is the jealous type who always trusted her gut feelings to feel it in her bones. How many of you would think she has over reacted and her "women's intuition" is gonna be wrong this time OR the husband is plain innocent or have something up his sleeve??? Watch on.. Classic act by Carol Burnett and Tim...

ക WhyAskWhy¿ (04) ~ 'Gostan' & 'Calefare'

GOSTAN ~ Remember Bananaz last post about double parking? See I told you and even warned you much earlier not to double park! This is the cause and effect of double parking.. *just kidding*. In Malaysia the Malays, Chinese and Indians would use this common colloquial word 'gostan' without any problem its more like a national word now. Give a wild guess what the hell is this word 'gostan' and how did it come about? Slowly and surely this word 'go astern' has gradually gone 'a turn' into the Malaysian scene and evolved to become 'gostan'. "Can you please 'gostan' your car a little bit more I need to get out from this parking lot?" Does this word...
