the 39 hours revenge therapy

This post is about how i waste my time when i went back to the old country for a week off earlier this month. What i am trying to tell you is i will bored you to death with this super cheesy titled post.  so here it goes....

Most of the time was spent rebonding with my favourite people in the world (...and the award goes to the 5 nieces and 4 nephews), and the least favourite part: spending a weekend (approximately 30+ hours of suffering) catching up with old associates and nemesis alike for some long overdue hi-5vers.

and unfortunately, on that fateful weekend a game of futsal friendly was organised by my former classmates (aka a lame excuse for a mini reunion), and at the end of the match it is safe to say that our opponent was not harmed...maybe due to some cantilevered bellies and/or weak bones since most of us will hit 60 soon
Aftermath? the best part of the day. the part i miss the most when i'm abroad. The secret of every healthy malaysian: daily dosage of latenite supper at the mamak chit-chatting cock and bull
So why mamak hangout is so popular? maybe the super-efficient service or, maybe the tonnes of kas-kas? some of them are very humble too, they even pose a picture with you

        Lose your illusions

QT's latest

Earlier this week at the Cannes Film Festival, World War II epic Inglorious Bastards was screened. Reviews almost immediately start to pop up, some coming down hard on it and others praising it to high heavens (read what the critics have to say)

So what makes the film so special? Well, it's a Quentin Tarantino's flick...and i'm a sucker for his work (Pulp Fiction & Reservoir Dogs are filmsy-xtraordinaire in my top 10)

Watch the trailer (in hi-definition) below

HAVE HEART- Armed with a Mind
Live at MCPA Theatre, Kuala Lumpur 16.05.09

this is so sad...one of the leading new voice of hardcore, Boston-based HAVE HEART (which happen to be my favourite HC band at the moment)  announced their break-up yesterday following their current world tour...

and to rub salt to the wound, they are scheduled to PERFORM AT KUALA LUMPUR's MCPA Theatre tomorrow!...I was in KL last week, if i knew this earlier no doubt i will xtend my stay to see em for the first and last time:

with top notch hardcore masterpieces in 2006's The Things We Carry and 2008's Song To Scream At The Sun (still in my Pod heavy rotation), HH certainly quitting the game on a high

watch a 30 minute clip of them performing:
-Armed with a mind
-The machinists
-Life is hard enough
-Us fools
-Something more than ink
-About face
-The Unbreakable
-Watch me rise

(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth


since 1982, they have taken the heavy metal ambassadorship to a new level

recently lars ulrich, james hetfield, kirk hammett, rob trujillo, jason newsted and (the late) cliff burton, current and past members of a small time band called Metallica, were inducted into 2009 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, following the footsteps of past inductess Led Zeppelin, The Clash, Van Halen, Black Sabbath, Aerosmith , Ramones etc


The band was inducted by Red Hot Chilli Peppers's Flea, who recalled: 

"the first time I heard Metallica, in 1984 while on tour with the Peppers.
                It was 3 in the morning, we were tired, crammed into a van and sick
                of being on the road, and this music comes on the radio, and I

   couldn't believe that it f**king existed. I didn't know what it was; 
   the only thing I knew for sure was that it was a mighty thing,"
 he said of "Fight Fire with Fire", the opener to 1984 classic Ride The Lightning

watch opening acceptance speech by cliff burton's dad Ray, followed by thoughts from all the band members preceeded by a live performance of 'Master of Puppets' and 'Enter Sandman' (first time ever Metallica played as a 5-piece, with current and former bassist rob and jason onstage).

Metallica also led a 'surprise jam' to end the nite with RCHP's Flea, Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, Aerosmith's Joe Perry and Jeff Beck (watch clip below)

Have you ever walked out of a movie?
Submitted by Jack Yan

Dubai Flea Market runs every first Saturday of the month at Al-Safa Park near Jumeirah, so one lame Saturday Pica, Maizura and me went to check what the fuss is all about

Everything from used (or 'bundle' for street term) dresses (mostly ladies) , household & electronic items, antiques, toys, books and handcrafts were on the table
