Craig is Bond...

I hate to admit it.. but after watching Casino Royale i'm starting to believe Daniel Craig will be toppling Sean Connery on my favourite actors who played Bond. I havent read Ian Fleming's Casino Royale - but if i speculated i would believe Daniel Craig embodies all of Bond's original charactheristics.

I cant imahing Pierce Brosnan as Bond anymore... Craig is the total opposite to Brosnan - Brosnan was such a pussy bond compared to Craig.

In Casino Royale, 'Q' hasnt been introduced yet, so Bond is put up against villians without any gadgets - so he has to get out of tight situations using his own intuition and bare fists.. plus he gets beaten up also , unlike the last 21 films when Bond doesnt even get a scratch on him.

I'm not gg to spoil the movie for the ones who havent seen it yet - but please hurry to the closest cinema, do not download a cam copy - Casino Royale is going to be a cult classic, and Craig is here to stay....

Scientific find of the Week - yes it does matter

Next time your friend catches you flirting with the old maid around the corner, no longer can you blame it on the over-used excuse of 'Beer-Goggles'...

Thats right boys - the scientists at Baush and Lomb have way to much time on their hands, they cracked their heads together and came up with possible the most useless equation of the week!!

Boys and Girls - its my pleasure to introduce the 'Beer Goggle' effect

An = number of units of alcohol consumed

S = smokiness of the room (graded from 0-10, where 0 clear air; 10 extremely smoky)

L = luminance of 'person of interest' (candelas per square metre; typically 1 pitch black; 150 as seen in normal room lighting)

Vo = Snellen visual acuity (6/6 normal; 6/12 just meets driving standard)

d = distance from 'person of interest' (metres; 0.5 to 3 metres)


a Beta (i cant find the proper symbol on blogspot - the funny looking B) of 0 means you are dead sober and just plain desperate - a Beta of 100 means its abt time u gave up drinking..

ok.. by no means this is gg to break headlines or win any noble prizes.. but it just shows how much time and money is spent on coming up with stuff that does or mean nothing...

I promise my readers - i will be equally jobless and research the effects of this equation in the real world - right after i list the different fart sounds produced by the different shapes of One's anal splinter...

N.B. the above is 100% true.. researchers really will do anything for money..

Summer 2006 - sorry for the delay in posting

Fun in the sand

BBC, UN and Double Standards..

Last night, i went to the BBC site (ard 2am) - i visit the BBC every 2hrs and religously when i wake up and go to sleep... But last nights headlines were a complete shocker!!! I don't remeber the exact words, but i was up for the next 2 hrs thinking... is the BBC and UN exercising double standards? The story in particular was about the Sri Lankan Army (SLA) recruiting child soldiers to fight for the breakway Ltte faction (Karuna forces). It said, a report from the UN head for chil rights, Alan Rock) believes, without hard evidence, that the SLA is helping the Karuna faction to recruit forcibly child soldiers... but by morning the aritcle has changed to SLA turning a blind eye into the child rights abuses going on in government controled areas. This drastic change in reporting suggests a quick editing job (Dumeethra Luthra, i guess the editing team needed to make changes to your biased style of reporting - but this is another topic to blog abt)... but this article made me think, and here is what i thought about:

1) reading the comments on 'Have you say' section on BBC, i noticed a lot of comments from tamils condeming the GOSL (government of Sri Lanka) for recruiting children and abusing human rights. Most of these tamils support the Ltte - for their 'Ealam', equal rights for tamils and these are legitamate reasons to support a group - but if you support the Ltte, you are also supporting Suicide bombing, child soldiers, killing civilians and using civilians as human shields. the Ltte are notorious for their child recruiting etc.. so if you condemn the GOSL, arnt you also condeming the Ltte? or is it a simple case of its ok for us to do it, but not ok for anyone else?

2) It is obvious both sides are commiting serious human rights violations - but its a War, it should be expected... child or adult - if they can carry an AK47 they are soldiers... i'm not supporting child soldiers but in a War, what has to be done, has to be done!!

3) the Ltte say that they dont forcibly recruit children - children come to them to fight. I wonder how many 11 or 12 year olds decide they want to give up their lives for a cause they have no idea about or how it started. when i was 12 all i thougth abt was if i can make it to the TV room on time to watch my cartoons.. kids at that age dont make up their own minds - they lack the capicity to know whats right from wrong - they need adult guidance. but to think about it - children make the best soldiers - they dont argue, its easy to instill fear in them, its easy to model them into the ideal soldier, and have no clue whats right or wrong - they simply do what the adults say.

4) Do ppl really think there are such things as LTTE orphanages? For a organisation notorious for using child soldiers for the last 23 yearsm, an orphanage sounds more like a Hitler youth camp - creating the perfect soldiers...

5) The GOSL has no official connection with the Karuna faction. It has no paper or formal agreements of collusion. But it is obvious that they are helping each other out - like wat is said in the Art of War "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". GOSL is obviously sharing intelligence, giving weapons and turning a blind eye into Karuna activities - all the time continually stating it has no connection with Karuna. the best part of this is, GOSL has deniability. If it is proven that Karuna is recruiting children - the international body cannot prove the GOSL is helping it - can only accuse. Thus, cannot have sanctions against GOSL.

Birthday Blog..

So... My Bday has passed, the celebrations are over, the time has come and gone, the fat lady has sung... As i sit down in front of my Monitor, thinking of all the adjectives and anologies i can use to describe the events of the weekend, i stop to think of all the people who i've spent with over the weekend.. I wish to thank all of you who made my party a real PARTY.. and by the way, thanks a lot for Russel Peters tickets -

So without wasting anyones time, here are a few snapshots..

My Lasana Rosa Mala (Beautiful Rose) and Takkali (Tomato)

Please dont ask me whats going on in the above pic..

And finally for all you who didnt wish me - Fuck You Ass Holes!!!

Reflections of the last year..

As i sit in front of my monitor, 1 hour before my bday, i cant resist not to think about the last year.. It was a good year.. filled with romance, career success and a year i broadend my friendships.. I also busted a lot of money - but i had a good time in doing so..

So when i look back - there are a few experiences and advice i want to give my fellow bloggers.

1. Walking to the canteen to get dinner is not exercise

2. DO NOT bullshit Professors who have PhDs from MIT

3. Keep away from Toshiba Laptops

4. Low tar Cigarettes do not make you less of a man..

5. Beer is not a substitute for water

6. An erection on the dance floor does not mean your in love - specially after some drinks

7. Zouk Mambo nights does not mean your gay

8. Pink is not my colour - specially figure hugging pink t-shirts

9. Buying Shirts a size smaller does not make you a body builder - stick to comfort and trust me, girls know the difference between fat and muscle - dont believe when they say "Have you been working out?" its another phrase for "How much weight you put on?"

10. Procrastination and Masturbation are very much the same - it feels good but at the end of the day you are only fucking yourselves..

11. In real life,when she smiles, it doesnt mean you are going to get laid - Porn is just fantasy

I hope none of you make the same mistakes as i made

Tioman and all that...

First of all, sorry to my regualr readers (whoever you might be) for not updating my blog for the last month - I've been quite busy, when i'm not doing my thesis (yes, I'm smart), i'm either drunk, watching Greys anatomy or masturbating - no preference of order...just joking about the masturbating part;)

2 weekends ago, i ventured over the causeway point (what divides Singapore and malaysia) to reach my destination Tioman Islands. Its a wonder the disparity between Singapore and Johor Bahru (the border town of Malaysia). As we crossed the bridge everything seemed to change. Being used to a controlled clean society, its a welcoming to enter the dirty chaos of Malaysia - i realised i was close to home. Even the straits ,which divided Singapore and malaysia, seemed to get more poluted as we crossed the bridge. I swear, at the centre i saw a plastic bag and a dead cat floating...

Much of the 3 hour drive to the ferry point of Mersing i slept - so cant describe the experience - the brief moments i opened my eyes i saw what it seemed the guy sitting in front of me was getting a blow job from his China girlfriend - but i'll come to that later... At mersing (reminded me of one of those ghost towns you see in a western), we were stranded for 1 hour till our ferry arrived. a very muslim communinty, so glad we were there only for a hour.

The ferry ride was 90 min - and as i sat on the upper deck smoking a cigarette - i wondered what the hell i'm doing in university... I was thinkning what my life would be if i was a captain of a ferry boat. As the wind blew over my hair, i'll be at the wheel smoking a cigar - directing my first mate to pour me a whisky (a drunk ferry captain is what i'd be). In the evenings, i'd go down to the bar - chat up some local talents.. thats the life!!!

Tioman is everything the forums said it would be - boring!!! Ok, the booze was cheap - but how much can 1 man drink. 3 days, nights thats around 48 hours minus around 16 hours of sleep leaves 32 hours. By the way - i didnt drink water the whole time i was in tioman - beer is cheaper!! Therefore, for the whole of sunday - if you take away the time i spent snorkeling - i had a beer in my hand... by Sunday evening i gave binge drinking a whole new meaning... by Monday morning (the day we left), my body gave up - i took medicine, but i soon vormitted that out - slept the whole journey back to singapore (4pm) and slept till 11am the next day. Besides the drinking Tioman is good to bring your girlfriend/mistress/escort for a quiet weekend (most of the Indian or white guys were accompanied by china/thai/phillipino women.. wonder why?).. no one would disturb you. There was no one for me to chat up.. well there were 3 chubby girls (referred as Charlie's Angels) who sat behind me on the bus who couldnt keep their mouths shut for more than 10min. I think they should restrict the sales of Bikinis.. for the love of mankind - some girls should realise that bikinis are not for them.

For my readers - Please wish me a Very Happy Birthday this Friday (6th oct) - i think my friends are only my friends cos the booze i serve on my bdays... it will be nice to be wished by someone who will not be coming for the free drinks...

Bday Time..

So guys.. if you were wondering why i've been quite generous the last few weekends in clubs - buying all u cheap bastards drinks - its cos of only 1 reason - and being very frank (as im always am) - i want you guys to buy me presents as my bday is coming very soon... so to get u guys started here are a few things u guys can do or get for me..

2. Strippers to give all e guys body shots.

3. 2 strippers to give us a tandemn strip show - making out, muff diving, double sided dildo show etc...
