Bvlgari Swiped from williamnyk . I'm here today to share with all of you SK's It Pays To Be A Dear programme. For the benefit of those who are in the dark about the programme, SK actually chooses oustanding individuals to be awarded the title of Dear . Along with this title comes great responsibility ( sorry, Spiderman crossover ) great benefits that only the designated Dear 's may reap. But firstly, let me spell out the terms and conditions: The selection of Dear 's is made on the sole discretion of SK. The title may be stripped at any time without notice. Candidates must be male and of acceptable cuteness. Dear 's may unilaterally terminate the contract, but SK reserves the right to address them as Dear . There is no limit to the number of Dear 's at any given time, with the exception of DEAR which is henceforth referred to with capital letters. There can only be 1 (one) DEAR at any given time and all other Dear 's can only use the title with

Submit, Damn You!

After putting off the Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 problem at my old site for weeks, I have finally found the time and the perfect environment to simulate the problem. Preliminary findings suggest that after installing the security enhancements, the RequiredFieldValidators on longer allow a form to submit normally, hence my log in problem. I do not know whether this is an issue with .NET Framework v1.1 or perhaps there is something special about the server configuration as it works fine on my boss' laptop. Grrr. If it is truly the validation controls that are causing havoc, then there would be sweeping fixes across the system! Crap! So sienz. I hate X-files. :(.

All Things Avian

OMG. Had Nasi Rendang Ayam for lunch. Ayam Goreng McD for tea. Steamed Kampung Chicken for dinner. Kai, kai and more kai. P.S.: It is freaking hot. I am melting from the heat.

LEGO Indiana Jones in 2008 Swiped from Dunechaser . Just watched Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom the other day on TV and it really brought back memories. Noticed a small bit of trivia. In the opening scene, the night club that Indy was in was called Club Obi Wan And the Chinese kid Short Round is sooooooooo cute. In the final scene, we get to see Harrison Ford shirtless and it's quite acceptable. I just hope there will not be an attempt in Crystal Skull. Don't want it to end up like a aged Clint Eastwood sex scene. I also used to love immitating the Thuggee priest, chanting "Kali Ma, Kali Ma, Shakti he!" together with childhood best friend, Pash. Disturbing, kan ? Oh well, so much for reminiscing.

客家擂茶

客家擂茶 Swiped from lanchiung . For lui cha lovers out there ( I've got a feeling I can count them all with one hand ), here's an update on the latest place serving this healthy and hearty meal: Ming Tien, SS24 It's one of the stalls inside the main area. You can get a very big portion for MYR5 ( it can't beat Oriental Bowl Restaurant's portion, but that's at MYR10! ). The soup is thicker than the one at Ho Boh and you can immediately catch the aroma of the mint and Thai basil. The toppings are quite good and they are not stingy with the roasted peanuts. My only complain is that it's a tad salty for my taste. Go give it a try. Even if you hate it. P.S.: Kung Fu Kitchen in Aman Suria also serves Lui Cha for MYR7, but I've not tried it.

Dororo & Ayakashi

ayakashi06 Swiped from winghon83 . Been ages since I did a movie review. So, here's a double to make up for the lack of it. Firstly, I have speak of Ayakashi . It's a trio of Japanese classic horror stories in anime. Japanese stories are usually weird, and this is no exception. Each story is animated by different artists and is told in a different way, so it's all quite fresh. Yotsu Ya Kai Dan - Typical vengeful ghost story about a disfigured wife Ten Shu Mono Gatari - A forbidden love story between man and man-eating ( in the literal and non-literal ) demoness Bake Neko - The most stylised of the three. About a vengeful cat demon vs. travelling medicine seller Of the three, the last story made the least sense but was the most beautifully drawn. The first was kinda like a documentary with a Japanese version of James Earl Jones as narrator. The second story was the most forgettable. Dororo is a fantasy movie about a general's son who was born without 48 of his body part
