Storms...
Sometimes when the waves are too calm,
be careful.
Cos it usually means a storm is brewing.
Well, today I had one... albeit a small one.
It would have blown over quickly if support was given.
Sighs... Oh well.
Today's lesson:
We really need to watch what we say cos often times those very same words will come and bite not only ourselves but other people as well.

Daniel is James
I went to catch Casino Royale with my dearest last night and this is what I have to say...
Finally!
A James Bond that is as hard as a rock!
Not since Sean Connery in From Russia With Love,
that I have seen another Bond who is both hard and tender at the same time.
Daniel IS James...
He brought not only a hard edge and a cruel streak back to the character,
but managed to show enough emotions to get us to feel for him as well.
He can be both charming in one minute and cruel in another.
Moreover, he also has the physique of someone who can both give and take a beating.
Not only does the movie has all the classic ingredients of a Bond movie such as...
the pacing is good,
and you got to know James Bond much better.
The focus is really on Bond this time.
Not the girls or cars or gadgets or villians.
Well done Daniel Craig and bravo Casino Royale!
Here's to Bond movie #22!

- Beautiful and exotic scenery and locations
- Cruel villians
- Torture scenes (and this one is really, really painful to watch!)
- Boy's toys (cars, boats, HPs, laptops)
- Action, and lots of it (in short bursts)
the pacing is good,
and you got to know James Bond much better.

Life
Life is so, so fragile...
treasure it.
You are only given 1 chance.
We are not as invincible as we think.
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for this precious, precious lesson.

Times like this...
"It is not good to punish an innocent man,
or to flog officials for their integrity."
- Proverbs 17:26
My dearest Father in heaven.
My heart is heavy.
I see so many things that are wrong.
I know its not going to last very long.
As Christ is coming back again.
Still...
May justice prevail in these last days...
May our light shine before man.
May it never fade or be put out.
Intervene on our behalf, I pray.
It is hard to live at times like this...
BUT...
Help us to keep our eyes on You.
Let Your love fill our hearts.
So that we may continue to share it with others.
Let it not be filled with bitterness and resentment.
Lest it hardens at the core.
The road ahead will not be easy.
Remind us that Your joy can be our strength.
That You will never leave nor forsake us.
I am so grateful that I can come to You.
That's all for now...
But I am sure if I ever need You,
You are only a cry away.
Thank You for that assurance.
Amen

What if I am not?
The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous.
He will hear their cries.
The question is...
What if I am not that righteous?
Will You still accept me and love me?
He will hear their cries.
The question is...
What if I am not that righteous?

Things I am not...
I am not that smart, though some may equate the trivial things I store in my head as so.
I am not that happy, though many are fooled by this smile of mine.
I am not that healthy, though my size and shape may fool many, myself included.
I am not easy to live with, there is no doubt about it.
I am not that nice, so please don't get too close to me...
Or you'll be greatly disappointed.
I am not that good a guy, really.

Is it possible?
I sometimes think there are certain things in my life that are too good to be true...
I wonder if this particularly precious thing that I have is also one of them.
I hope not but it seems more and more like it is.
I really hope not.

Shaken... Not Stirred
Yes, its James Bond time again.
I wonder how Casino Royale will fare.
My sweetheart says Daniel Craig is to rough to be James Bond.
What do you think?
As for me, I like Sean Connery.
But only in "From Russia With Love".
To me, that is the best James Bond Movie ever.
The story was simple and yet classy.
Not many gadgets and stuff.
Lots of action.
Exotic locales and a beautiful Bond girl.
Classic James Bond.
I hope Casino Royale and Daniel Craig can rise to the challenge.
Heh...

Pay More for More?
Hey...
Let me ask you a question.
Are you willing to pay more taxes to support the services given to us by the government?
Me?
Why not?
If they manage it well...

Ramblings Part 011106
What am I doing when not working and not with Su Yin?
- Playing FM2007 (if you don't know what I am talking about... good).
- Blogging... doing this right now. :P
- Trying to lose weight (doing this with my dog, who's also as tubby as I am).
- Day dreaming (and night dreaming also)... there's 2 concurrent stories running in my head right now (don't ask). BTW, I can switch between the 2 as and when I like it... sweet! :)

Value of a man
How do you value a man?
By the amount of money he has in the bank?
To me, it looks increasingly to be so...
What happened to a man's character?
Is that not worth anything any more?
What about hard work?
Or commitment?
Or tolerance?
What is shaping us to be so "realistic"?
Where "if we don't have money, we also cannot be happy cos we will always be arguing about money".
God, what is the true value of a man?
Is this true anymore?
" ...give me neither poverty nor riches,
but give me only my daily bread.

Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you
and say, 'Who is the LORD ?'
Or I may become poor and steal,
and so dishonour the name of my God."

International Bank Konon
Went with my dearest to carry out my Santa Claus rounds...
Withdrew money from my piggy Maybank, no problem.
Gave money to a poor, poor bank in need for me to support it, no problem.
Gave money to a telco company in needing my money to feed its employees, no problem.
Went next to Citibank, international bank, got problem!!!
They dared to tell us the deadline for paying our bills is end of the month.
They dared call me up for not paying (I was late this month ler!).
They dared to charge me extra money for late payment.
They also dared to shutdown 3 out of 5 cash deposit machines...
and left the other 2 set at problematic mode...
spitting out our money cos we were foolish enough to fold it...
Btw, I din fold mine...
So I spent more than 5 minutes waiting...
another 5 minutes queuing in another line cos the 1st machine was spitting out the cash 2 hapless customers was trying to feed RM50 notes for 5 minutes...
and just less than 1 minute for me to donate my money to them...
BECAUSE I DIN FOLD MINE!!!
Teruklah Citibank...
If you know most people will pay at the month end after getting our pay...
make sure all machines are working la...
or else make sure you educate all the people you were so kind to saddle your credit cards on them with.
Adoi...
Breath in deep... count to zero... 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,..
Sighs...

It rained last night...
and this morning too...
Praise be to God for bringing the rain.
At least the haze has cleared slightly.
Thank you, Father.
