during one of the gazillion meetings i attended last week, i met with an i.t. officer from a federal ministry who is in-charge of the ministry’s website and all the departments under that ministry.
he looks young and was smartly dressed. i was there because he wants to find someone to do a re-vamp of his office’s website.
anyway he told me that recently he cannot update their website. so i asked him what was the problem? this is how it went :
officer : sejak kami guna streamyx, ndak buli suda sia update sebab dulu kami guna dial-up bah.
me : oh.. connection problem mengkali.
officer : ndak. sia buli masuk website lain.
me : oyaka? so apa error message kao dapat?
officer : bukan. ndada error message.
me : jadi? kenapa kao tidak dapat update?
officer : sbab dulu waktu kami guna dial-up, sia guna FTP untuk transfer file, tapi sejak guna streamyx ni, sia ndak tau suda apa mo pakai.
me : (dumbfounded).
at this point i wanted to tear up all my education certificates and kiss his feet, while begging him to show me how he got the job.
if you aren’t a webmaster, then you won’t know why i feel intelligent being in the same room with this guy.
what happened is like someone who doesn’t know how to light his cigarette cuz the brand is different. it sound as stupid as this
officer : dulu.. sia slalu isap itu dunhill bah - tapi sejak sia beli salem, sia ndak dapat bersigup suda.
me : oo.. kenapa pulak?
officer : sbab dulu sia pakai lighter kalau dunhill tapi untuk salem, sia ndak tau suda apa mo guna.
*background music : kuang kuang kuangggg*
to protect this human species and keep them alive in the world for the other intelligent webmasters to have a good laugh, i will not name the ministry nor the officer.
here’s a story i picked up from the net. a guy was arrested when he attempted to buy a gold spray paint from the hardware store. an employee suspected that he is not planning to use it to spray cuz he noticed through his eyes that he was “high” and he answered their questions in a slow manner.
oh yeah.. he looked like this when he was in the store…
hahahahahaha.
JULY 21–Meet Patrick Tribett. The Ohio man was nabbed yesterday morning for “abusing harmful intoxicants” as he attempted to make a purchase at Bellaire’s Dollar General Store. The 41-year-old Tribett, it seems, had been huffing spray paint and needed a refill.

Woah.. Marsha was 2nd last during Saturday’s concert, her percentage with Akma was the same at 10%, so their votes weren’t that far apart. Nasibbb bah she survived - sad to say Akma didn’t make the cut and si kinit, kefli masih stay, eventhough he did quite well last night (for his standard), it doesn’t justify Akma’s dismissal cuz she has been one of the consistent performers.
sayonara for the konichiwa girl
Marsha performed so-so lah but jambu bah dia, so all is forgiven suda kekeke. Usually her voice is soft and you’d mistake it for falsetto but for her song during this concert, you can really hear her voice.
Marsha with her jelingan maut
..tapi the loudest cheer of the night was for Felix. Now everyone knows he has been suffering from a sore throat for a couple of weeks and obviously, he got a throat-maiming song yet he did great.
Before his performance, host Aznil apologised to him for last week’s joke when he compared Felix and Marsha as orang utans. Felix, obviously didn’t know the brouhaha in the media, just took it rather simply.
Felix said “cuba lagi tahun depan”. Mimang joker bah dia ni.
when the 2nd jury was about to comment on Felix’s performance, you could hear a group of people shouting “Felix Universe!”. i thought “bah.. fanatik suda fans si felix” - sekali tengok, it was the ex-students pulak! ish ish ish.
anyway, the most striking moment of that night for me was…. no no.. not Yazer’s exposed knees facing the tv screen.. it was.. Amylea!
Amylea strutting her stuff
this petite girl has talent and command of the stage. we all know she can dance since the show started but last night - woah - she made Ella’s song hers. Not at any point did she try to imitate the original singer (play Yazer and Vince track singin “mengapa harus cinta” side by side and you’d know what i mean).
i must admit, she looks better with the decreased perimeter of her hair which used to look like the lead character from Lion King.
well - you know i haven’t started to AFUNDI and i don’t intend to. i’m paying my monthly bill to astro already so they’ll be getting no more of my dough.
don’t get me wrong - i support the students and i will buy their album when it’s out but for now, i’ll just enjoy watching the concert and laughing at all the bad grammar people use on Channel 15 (like “Mawi is comeback!” - *duh*)
ennui \on-WEE\, noun:
A feeling of weariness and dissatisfaction arising from lack of interest; boredom.
busy la today. batuk2 kring lagi.
the workload won’t seem a burden if i don’t have ennui bah. uiseyy.. see.. u read my blog your IQ naik jugak sikit. laterzz.
Got this through YM from one of my colleague today. Since I am so busy with meeting after meeting after meeting, I’ll just post this.
A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.
In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first.
In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. And that, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers.
