Early strike

Recently I'd been watching my diet and also keep reminding my friends to do so.....

All along some must be thinking I am such a nag....

Until one of them is found to have high blood pressure and hypertension.....

And he thought he was having a headache and pain in the gums...!!

Pls take care cos we are no longer teenagers....

Time to say no to chilli crabs, pepper crabs, crayfish, oysters, big prawns etc... And please welcome tofu, steamed fish, veges and more veges....

beautifully grey...



something to whet your appetite......

grey is still cool when done right

1.6 benchmark


if i were looking to buy a car, i may just stay away from bigger engines.......

for the record, there are 1.6 litre engines that can hit 200 hp so why should you pay more for road tax and insurance......

consider the fact that a mini cooper S JCW will give you 211 hp at a big premium..! and how about its french cousins?....... citroen @ 160 hp?, peugeot  @ 200 hp for the RCZ manual........

so when is the japanese going to respond to this? for now, they have killed off the civic type R, going to kill the evo X and god knows what will happen to the STi.....

i cannot imagine...... OUCH...

turbo juice.....


when i read the thread about improving the RR-77, i was skeptical.....

how much more performance can one squeeze from the generator???

to put things in perspective, the 2 power supply from kingrex are not exactly cheap and cheerful...... one is less than half the cost of a RR-77 while the higher end unit is more than $400 list price....

in the end, i decided to bite the bullet and opted for the PSU Mk2....

and WOW!! the extra juice and current woke up the sleeping giant.....

the RR-77 is now even more effective and obvious.....

good stuff....

Wooden triangle

I couldn't avoid the temptation and now have placed my remaining 神木 mpingo discs on the delta transport ....

It's getting soothing, warm and organic in the room with all the little wooden discs in their equilateral triangular formation.....

Happy chairs

Is MOM justified in spending approx $250,000 on designer ergonomic office chairs?

From what I know, ordinary office chairs around $200 are pretty ok in terms of comfort and posture .... 

Too bad they usually do not last: castors break, arm-rest become loose, upholstery get discoloured etc.... Why? Cos there are chair-bullies !!!

Personal chairs usually fare better; those for general use e.g. Meeting rooms or shared by different groups / shifts will get KO in double quick time....

Maybe the MOM or other ministries should fine their staff if any of their chairs break from rough use...

I can't stand people who abuse office chairs.....!!

brake testing....

as i know, brake testing is frowned upon..... and we shall see how the clip develops....


notice how the jazz almost hits the bike on his left..... and after he cut into the van's lane, there's the moment of brake testing...

shame shame.....

to the bank

i have not seen this for a good good long time...... how often do you see a rider that banks at the same angle with his bike????

forgive me but i was laughing as i saw this and i really enjoyed this moment...... he even kept his elbow locked throughout the turn....??!!

uncle, you are really a funny rider.....

slow but not steady....

here's a classic road hogger in action....

and he lives in his own sweet selfish world...... just crawling at a slow slow pace

pocket dey pocket....

hallo hallo hallo...!!!!

damn!!

can you stay in the pocket while waiting ?????? by intruding beyond the pocket, i'd to swerve to avoid an accident.....

KNN..!!


KNN..!!

extended session


i remember knocking out at 2000 hrs and waking up at 0700 hrs this morning.....

in between, i opened my eyes at about 2330 hrs and also getting off to switch off the lights and TV at 0230 hrs......

surely it feels so wonderful to sleep and sleep for that 11 hours......... on the other hand, it's also quite a waste cos i did nothing else but sleep......

ahhhh the dilemma....

Stress relief

Cables dun sound too good under tension....

So what can we do? You can do what the shunmook guys do: suspend cables with fishing lines...

Or else you can use wooden blocks to support your cables.... I use them to lift my Acrolink 2070 interconnect cables...

A little bit of tweaking goes a long way.....

this car was spotting an E55 AMG emblem.........

however...

the tyres are kinda thin....
the wheel track dun look wide enough....
quad pipes look well...... maybe ok....
brake calipers normal.....

when i looked up onemotoring.com, i realised this is a E240 ....

OOOOPPSS....

E55 huh..???



utterly selfish.....

how can ANYONE ANYONE ANYONE flag for a cab at such a LOCATION????

it's a turn, for god's sake!!!


these are 2 utterly selfish people who has no consideration for safety and common sense...!!!

and the cab driver even tried to SLOW DOWN???!!!! DAMN..!!

TOO MUCH TOO MUCH..!!!

*audio muted*

simple wish....

please....

do not travel at 40 kph on a 50 kph road.....

do not signal just a few metres before the turn.....

do not straddle on 2 lanes.....


such simple tasks and yet it's as tough as if they have to move a mountain.......


1 pin.....


the smallest thing can hurt you in the biggest way.......

how though?

before i left the house, i felt a little pain in my right toe....... must be a splinter!! try as i might, i cant seem to find it at all.....

as i was running late, i'd to leave the house.... no choice no choice.....

guess what?

the first sharp turn i had to make almost killed me...... cos when i tried to do a heel-toe, i felt a sharp pain in my toe......!! and i couldnt execute what i'd wanted to...

fortunately i wasnt going fast ...

whewww....

Multiplier

You can spend on "the sky is the limit" audio components but if your room sucks, you will never get great sound ....

When it comes to room treatment, one dollar spent can be as effective as five spent on audio components....

Trust me cos there's no running away from the problems .....

It is THAT important..... And dun forget the ceiling!!!

what's the use of a BIG BRAKE KIT, one may ask.....

well at legal speeds, it doesn't do much ......

in fact, the feel of cold brakes and pads kinda sucks in a way....

but when an EVO 9 jumps into your lane at not so sane speeds, the BBK WORKS as PROMISED..!!!!

WOWO...

sure it feels safe and reassuring......

I LIKE..!!

one flip away.....

the signal indicator is just one flick away......

can you lift your finger to do it..????

SIGNAL LAH..!!


DAMN.......

queue and form.....

i was thinking ...

if this guy wanted to turn right, he should form up on the right........

why did he take up the space in which others can make a left turn..?????


well everything at his convenience.....

DAMN....

inconsiderate....

i cannot comprehend how anyone can park his vehicle on a single-lane dual carriageway......??????????????

absolutely ridiculous...!!!!

end up blocking the road and almost everyone has to swerve to avoid the KUKU....

DAMN....

left or right....

left or right or left or right....???

this cab driver cant even decide which is which.......

look out for his right signal..... then left..???????????

come on! make up your mind......

inch forward

hey hey hey......

a few more inches will be so helpful for everyone that is behind you.....

dun just think for yourself....

sheeshhh....

no need to stop.....

there is no need to STOP if there's nothing to give way to.......


please do not stop for the FUN of it.......

straight line KING

aha..... here's an example of a straight line KING.......

firstly notice how slow the merc was crawling around the bend....... and then how quickly he charged up once the road is straight....


perhaps you cant tell from the video but he was PAINFULLY AWFULLY SLOW at the bend......

keep out...!!!

can you just stay behind the give way line..?????????????????????????? why do i have to swerve and avoid this KU KU...????

DAMN..!!!


i have to mute the audio cos what i said is not suitable for public consumption.....

idiot eh....

simple companion


to avoid hits and knocks at work, i now depend on my trusty seiko 5 to tell time.....

simple yet tough and reliable, i can now not worry about scratches and dings.......

the rest are too precious and important to get trash around as my heart will sink every time i knock my watches....

so if you need an entry level automatic timepiece for the rough and careless, seiko 5 it is.....
