Basketball

I bought the shoes for quite long oredi.... but I never get the chance to use it. Only today I wore them for a basketball session. I thought I will play alone, so I brought a broom to sweep the court 1st. Its full of small tiny pebbles n sand. I dont want the ball to get spoil so fast. And I intend to sweep it often, so I can do my inline skating properly there.
Every time I use my 2k skate on that surface, the heart will ache once. Actually not once, with every roll the tyres make, the heart will ache.

Not long after I swept the floor, a few youngsters came to play. I guess they are in secondary school age. Form 4 maybe? Wakil sekolah me thinks.
Not long after some casual shootings, they ask me for a 2 on 2. Alright!!!! Not as boring as solo play. Furthermore, I think they should have a bit of skills judging from what they were wearing.

I managed to become the top scorer with my piercing lay ups and unblockable jump shots. Wakakakaka. Summore their most skillful player was effectively rendered useless by my defence.
When the points were at over 20 versus below 10, I asked them when will the game stop. I was told the game stops at 50 points. I was like OMGWTFBBQ!!!!11!!1!oneoneone1!
50 freaking points. I was almost out of my breath at that time. We continued the game and my old age became more apparent. I couldnt keep up with their steps and the points gap became narrower. It was torturous when it was in deuce battle. Like badminton, they decided to make the gap to 2 points in order to win should the points are tied at 48. The deuce battle ended at 60 points!!!!! The moment when I fell on the floor unconscious letting them winning the game. Chamness.

Is this lack of exercise, or really a sign of old age? Wakakakakaka.
I need to exercise more to know.

A trip to down under

Whoopie.
Its been long, way too long since I have successfully organise/plan/join a trip. I used to be freaking good in it. High school time, holiday time, uni time, working time. Trips are planned and executed swiftly, be it small or big, few participants or many. All that stopped exactly almost a year ago. All trips planned fail, be it near or far, short or long. Financial or timing was not the issue. Total unwillingness to compromise from one side is enough to bring down any plan. Be it an hour drive away. So many times....actually all the time.

Now the option is so aplenty!!! I can go by plane, train or bus. I am open to ALL suggestions, so its not surprising so many trips are successes. And even more surprisingly, all the failures for the past many plans.
Now I could've booked the cheap tix to fly over -> surprisingly available since Im going over the very next week. But the lady suggested the bus. Hmm, why not? Its still comfy since we will be taking the more "luxurious" one.

Lets Gaga!!!

The Irrelevant Silent Majority

A German's View Of Islam





This is by far the best explanation of the Muslim terrorist
situation I have ever read. His references to past history are
accurate and clear. Not long, easy to understand, and well worth
the read. The author of this email is said to be Dr. Emanuel Tanay,
a well known and well respected psychiatrist.


A German's View on Islam





A man, whose family was German aristocracy prior to
World War II, owned a number of large industries and
estates. When asked how many German people were true
Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our attitude toward
fanaticism. 'Very few people were true Nazis,' he said,
'but many enjoyed the return of German pride, and many
more were too busy to care. I was one of those who just
thought the Nazis were a bunch of fools. So, the
majority just sat back and let it all happen. Then,
before we knew it, they owned us, and we had lost
control, and the end of the world had come. My family
lost everything. I ended up in a concentration camp
and the Allies destroyed my factories.'





We are told again and again by 'experts' and 'talking
heads' that Islam is the religion of peace, and that
the vast majority of Muslims just want to live in
peace. Although this unqualified assertion may be true,
it is entirely irrelevant. It is meaningless fluff,
meant to make us feel better, and meant to somehow
diminish the spectra of fanatics rampaging across the
globe in the name of Islam.


The fact is that the fanatics rule Islam at this moment
in history. It is the fanatics who march. It is the
fanatics who wage any one of 50 shooting wars
worldwide. It is the fanatics who systematically
slaughter Christian or tribal groups throughout Africa
and are gradually taking over the entire continent in
an Islamic wave. It is the fanatics who bomb, behead,
murder, or honor-kill. It is the fanatics who take over
mosque after mosque. It is the fanatics who zealously
spread the stoning and hanging of rape victims and
homosexuals. It is the fanatics who teach their young
to kill and to become suicide bombers.


The hard quantifiable fact is that the peaceful
majority, the 'silent majority,' is cowed and
extraneous.
Communist Russia was comprised of Russians who just
wanted to live in peace, yet the Russian Communists
were responsible for the murder of about 20 million
people. The peaceful majority were irrelevant.





China's huge population was peaceful as well, but
Chinese Communists managed to kill a staggering 70
million people.


The average Japanese individual prior to World War II
was not a warmongering sadist. Yet, Japan murdered and
slaughtered its way across South East Asia in an orgy
of killing that included the systematic murder of 12
million Chinese civilians; most killed by sword,
shovel, and bayonet.


And, who can forget Rwanda, which collapsed into
butchery. Could it not be said that the majority of
Rwandans were 'peace loving'?


History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt,
yet for all our powers of reason we often miss the most
basic and uncomplicated of points: Peace-loving Muslims
have been made irrelevant by their silence.
Peace-loving Muslims will become our enemy if they
don't speak up, because like my friend from Germany,
they will awaken one day and find that the fanatics own
them, and the end of their world will have begun.
Peace-loving Germans,Japanese,Chinese,Russians,
Rwandans, Serbs, Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians,
Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians, and many others have
died because the peaceful majority did not speak up
until it was too late.


As for us who watch it all unfold, we must pay
attention to the only group that counts; the fanatics
who threaten our way of life.


Lastly, anyone who doubts that the issue is serious and
just deletes this email without sending it on, is
contributing to the passiveness that allows the
problems to expand. So, extend yourself a bit and send
this on and on and on! Let us hope that thousands,
world wide, read this and think about it, and send it
on - before it's too late.

Michael Jackson Tribute - Stockholm. July 8, 2009

Dead or alive, tribute or not, the ability to make people unite and do things beautifully, a rare ability - is just..... too dem admirable. Will we have more people who can inspire us, to ignore our differences, unite and work towards our collective goal of a better future and community?



I think if 5% of our "leaders" have that kind of mindset, the world is already a near perfect place to live in.

My tax is not in it

For a man with such stature and wealth, not being able to keep his woman....

Manohara: Kelantan prince files demand for RM1mil, her return
By SYED AZHAR


KOTA BARU: Tengku Temenggong Muhammad Fakhry Sultan Ismail Petra filed two applications at the Kelantan Syariah High and Lower courts here on Sunday demanding the return of nearly RM1mil from his wife Cik Puan Temenggong Manohara Odelia Pinot and her return.

In the affidavit filed by Zainul Rijal Abu Bakar and Abdul Halim Bahari on behalf of Tengku Muhammad Fakhry before Syariah High Court registrar Abu Bakar Abdullah Kutty, he claimed that before he married Manohara, she and her mother Daisy Farajina, had borrowed money from him totaling RM338,500 including a Swiss-made Audemars Piguet watch costing RM174,000.

Tengku Muhammad Fakhry also claimed that throughout their marriage from August 26 2008, Manohara or her mother had borrowed a further sum of RM634,250.

He said they understood the total of RM972,750 was a debt that had to be repaid.

He also said that, to date, the sum had yet to be settled and asked the court to order Manohara to pay the sum borrowed, costs and other relief deemed fit by the court.

At the lower Syariah court, Zainul Rijal and Abdul Halim also filed a summon on behalf of Tengku Muhammad Fakhry to demand the return of Manohara who had yet to come back to their client although an ultimatum to do so had been issued.

In his affidavit, he said that in the earlier stages of his marriage to Manohara, everything was blissful until Daisy started slandering him in the Indonesian media and that affected his relationship with Manohara.

He added that on May 31, 2009, while the couple was in Singapore keeping vigil on his father Sultan Ismail Petra Sultan Yahya Petra who was suffering from a heart ailment, Manohara left for Indonesia on her own accord.

He further said Manohara did not return to him and, in fact, had slandered him in the Indonesian media.

Tengku Muhammad Fakhry said Manohara’s action had tarnished his name and the Kelantan Royal Palace in the eyes of the Kelantanese subjects.

He claimed that that he issued an ultimatum to Manohara on June 26, through the local media, to return to his side and reconcile by Jul 2 and carry out her responsibility as a wife under the Syariah laws.

He added that Manohara was duly informed of the ultimatum via the media but she failed to comply and he asked the court to issue an order to reconcile or deem her to be nusyuz (recalcitrant).

He also claimed costs and other relief deemed fit by the court.

Tengku Muhammad Fakhry’s counsels also made an application for a notice of interlocutory at the Lower Syariah court to be served to Manohara via hand, Malaysian Embassy in Indonesia, advertisement in Indonesian newspapers or via post.

Abu Bakar who received the notice allowed the application.

The case is set for mention on Aug 2.


Actually those money he mentioned, whose money was it again?
I dont know whether this can be categorised as an "insult" or what. Its just a copy and paste, and a question.
