Wednesday morning, I had a look at a folder of CDs (frequent use category) which my son brought back from PJ. In the course of sorting out his belongings, this is one of those which are to be kept in our house when he will be in UK this May.
I could hardly find songs that I know, though I was sure some I know by tune but not the song title.
Then I bought The Star and started reading it while having breakfast and tea at a local Indian restaurant. When I came to Zits in the comics section, it has the following conversation, which really surprised me:
“Here you go, dad. I burned a cd of oldies for you.”
“Wow! Thanks, Jeremy!” “The Middle” by Jimmy Eat World. “Superman” by Five For Fighting. “Here is gone” by Goo Goo Dolls. “Drive” by Incubus…Hm.
“Problem?” asked mum.
“These oldies are too new for me to have heard of them.” replied dad.
In a blog that highlights views and news that do not matter, this coincidence is considered amazing.
How should we judge a government?
In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!
"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain
Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham
"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan
