Worth Living for...

If this is not blogworthy, I don't know what is.

Its not news. He's been around for awhile. But this is not a news site. So, I'm posting this here because he's blogworthy.

So many people have so many things laid out on a silver platter and served to them. But yet, everyday, they are grumbling and complaining. Never happy, never satisfied, never contented.

This man. Nick Vujicic. Born without limbs, is now travelling around the world, HELPING people. To me, he is truly living a life worth living for.

Think about that, and be THANKFUL. Be HAPPY! Be worthy of life...

iPhone 4 Reception Issues Official Fix

Ta-da! Well well, I held my breath and avoided touching it ever since the iPhone 3gs took the mobile world like a swarming locust, not happy with the fact that a 'modern' 3g cell-phone has no front-facing camera for video calls. It is simply not acceptable. If Stevie thinks that the average user does not use the video conferencing feature anyway, then why is Apple putting in the camera now in the iPhone 4? Talk about making a u-turn and slapping himself in the face. Or was it just a ploy to milk more money from consumers with the latest edition's 'new' feature? And by the way, I refuse to be an 'average user'...

Anyhooo, just when I thought I can breathe again and jump on the iPhone bandwagon with this latest release, news of reception issues and problems with A2DP bluetooth headsets flooded the internet. Oh man.... am I going to have to hold back again this time and wait for iPhone 5? I'm sick of holding my breath!

But wait... apparently, an official 'fix' has been release by Apple to patch the reception problem. See screenshot below!

mmm... maybe I'll take a look at the droids while waiting for the number 5....

Lars Vilks Attacked

Lars Vilks, the controversial Swedish artist who apparently drew pictures depicting Mohammed as a roundabout dog (whatever that means?) is recently in the news again. This time, he was showing some similarly offensive videos during a lecture he was conducting at Uppsala University, Sweden. A few people felt offended by what he was showing, and as a result, someone from the audience attacked Lars after repeated calls for him to stop fell on deaf ears. An excerpt of the incident is shown in the following video.

I really don't understand people these days. I mean, they hide behind the pretext of freedom of speech and freedom of expression, go around doing silly things which THEY KNOW will offend some people. They initiated such acts of provocation on such sensitive matters, how can they still hide behind the term 'freedom of expression' and claim innocence?

To me, this is not about race, religion, or ethnic issues anymore. It is all about common sense, mutual respect, and being responsible and accountable for your own actions! In my opinion, this Lars guy is plain stupid and has no respect for anyone else.

If someone were to insult someone I respect and love in my face and walk around the streets spreading lies and false accusations about them, just because he felt like it and thinks he has the 'freedom' to do anything he likes, then to me, this person had made the first move to attack me, I will of course slap him till his head spin the next time I run into him! I will exercise my freedom and right to defend what I hold as important to me!

Sadly, I found many other cowards who use 'freedom of speech' and 'freedom of expression' as a shield and excuse to insult the religion of others. You can see them here, and here, and read more about Lars Vilks here. (Extremely offensive materials, do not proceed if you are easily offended. Links for reference and information only, and I strongly condemn such acts!)

Although I'm all for freedom of expression, I believe that it is a privilege, not a right, that should be exercised with sensibility and responsibility. Otherwise, it is just another excuse to be used by cowards for attacking others.

Mark Souder Resigns

Indiana congressman Mark Souder resigns after affair with aide comes to light.

So what's new? Another US politician, another affair, another scandal. Makes me wonder, if all the politicians in the world who are having affairs or have had affairs before were to suddenly disappear, how many percent of them will be left? 20%? 30%? 50%? I really don't know. While I do not disagree that, being leaders, they are suppose to set good examples for the people, especially the younger generations, to follow, but as the saying goes, nobody's perfect, can't a person with certain character flaws still make a good leader? Bill Clinton was a good leader and president for the USA!

So, what do you think? Are leaders and politicians suppose to be perfect? Should they be given a second chance? Or, better still, should we just accept their flaws and let them continue in their role as leaders if they have been doing a good job all the while?

73 year old monster gets life sentence for imprisoning and raping his own daughter...

Man... what's the point? Josef Fritzl is already 73 years of age, life sentence? How long will he last? Yet, letting him die quick means letting him off the hook too easily. This sick duck (i mean... f*ck) deserves a daily caning of 10 strokes, imprisonment in the same cell with 10 analistic homos, and a daily dose of 10 anal jokes every day till the day he dies....

Here, see his face up there? Spit on it. Now you can clean your screen...

Liverpool do the 'double' over Man United

Wow, ranting Rafa led the Reds to a magnificent 'double' over the Red Devils! This coming right after thrashing Real Madrid just a few days back. But, Liverpool, being Liverpool, will probably go on to let a worse than mediocre team force a draw or steal a win from them in their own backyard now, won't they?

Liverpool fans can curse and swear at me all you like, but that's how they have been for the past seasons, no? If they could've just played like this week in week out, beat all the teams below top five, and draw or lose against the top four, they would've at least won a few titles in the past 10 years!

They face Aston Villa in their next game, and, under the guidance of Martin O'Neil, Villa has become a true force to be reckoned with. Which means that Liverpool will probably win it!

But I just don't believe that Manchester United, being habitual strong finishers towards the end of the season, will easily allow a 4 point lead with a game in hand disappear just like that.

So, what do you think? Who will finish the season with a flurry and go on to win it?

Blogworthy - the RETURN...

Alright, enuff z nuff, I hold my hands up.
I've been lazy, bumming around these days, doing nothing of any meaning...

Time for me to get myself back into the groove...
Times have changed, blogs look so different now....
I have been left behind... way way behind...
Looking back at the past, many leads point to a 404...
Time to get my ass off my bed, and on to my armchair...
And look at all things blogworthy, again....

Well if the above monologue sounds kind of familiar, its cos I've watch WATCHMEN, and I love it. Rorschach, (yeah yeah, I cut and paste from somewhere, who the hell came up with names like these anyway?!) likes talking to himself. A small man who hits as hard as he talks. I like Roastsharks. Yeah, that's how it SHOULD be spelled. I loved the movie. Watch it. The website, I like. Go see it. (I recommend clicking on the little 'fullscreen' icon at the bottom left for a totally immersive (is there such a word? well, who cares?) experience.

Uber Kewl Optikal eLLusion

It really works, but I find that the instructions are not accurate enough. You need to focus for about 30s, not 20. And your face has to be 10~15cm close to the screen for the trick to work.

Try it!

Sexy Tomatoes

Check out Sexy Tomatoes, where, in their own words...

This Team Blog is made up of women just like you, me, and your next door neighbor. The only difference is these women have learned that they can be sexual creatures, and the world will not come to an end. We're not talking about careless promiscuity, but freedom to have that wonderful sexual expression that virtually every strong woman has.

Mmm, freedom of sexual expression from a band of sisters... can't get any better!
