Make a Date with Joanne Lee

From the photos, you can tell,

Amber Chia is slightly taller than Anwar.

Joanne, a CanonMalaysian has a whole wardrobe of Nike T's.

Joanne is short sighted and looks the same in all her photos.

Joanne only likes local celebrities.

Joanne is closer to Amber than to Anwar.

Joanne proves that you do not have to work in Canon to have photos with some famous people.

Joanne I heard today is a fitness junkie and work out in fitness centres several times a week. She first started this bad habit several years ago when she felt she could not keep up with her husband physically.

I wonder whether she knows my friend Ian Cheang.

Oh yes, before I forget. Joanne is organising a get together with some ex-Canon people, CanonMalaysians.

The occassion will be a buffet lunch Holiday Villa on the 24th April 2010.

So far, the names of those probably coming include Louis Lee, Jeeneze Lee, Calvyn Laang, Rocky Loot, Angela Woon, Andrew Kong, Richard Yeow, Cheng Siew Ho, Chua Hock Keat, Brenda Kua. These are still early days. A lot more should be notified and be coming in. She mentioned the dim sum buffet is RM30.00 ++.

Joanne requests that you write on her facebook profile for her to keep track. You have a facebook account, don't you. Even an old uncle like me does.

By the way, both Amber and Anwar can't make it next month.

Teh Meng Chee; Rest in Peace Brother.

I received this from Edmond Liew yesterday morning. The first of many.

.

I think it originated from Jack Lim.

Dear All,

Very sad to inform that Mr. Teh Meng Chee passed on peacefully on 23 inst. evening. Wake on 24(Wed) n 25(Thur) at residence: 17 Jln 12/38E, Tmn. Sri Sinar, Segambut, 51200 K.L. Funeral mass at 10.30am on 26(Fri) at Jesus Caritas Church, Jln. Kepong Baru, KL. Fm: Jack Lim.

I saw the sad news this morning in The Star obituary section as well.
.

Teh Meng Chee and me were never close although our offices were just next to each other when we were both in Canon in Wisma Avon. I now have lost the opportunity to get to know him better.

The little I know about Teh, I found him consistently pleasant, polite and have a sunny disposition indeed. He is one of those managers I know who made it a habit to see resellers and consumers without hesitation. I have so far never heard a negative comment on him from his staff; those that I know.

May you Rest in Peace, my brother.

The Sting. The Movie

.

I watched this movie earlier today on Astro. I can't remember watching this 30 over years ago. I guess maybe I did not!

This one came out in 1973. A classic now.

Robert Redford and Paul Newman. What can go wrong? This one was after the other classic Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

I guess it is just me. I just can't seem to get it. The Oscar winning film did not move me in any way. Despite its reputation, it is not gripping, keeping you at the edge of your seat in anticipation or anything.

Otherwise, you know this is a story of one conman being wronged with his friend/partner getting killed and he teamed up with another hero to stage a big time sting operation to get back. A big con, so it seems.

Really good looking guys, this two. Robert Redford and Paul Newman. Should it be if in my dreams I can choose to look like either one of them, I'll take Paul. Incidentally the women in this movie were pretty plain and dowdy looking. I guess to not take away the two gentlemen's attractive looks.

What prompted me to watch, naturally was the reputation of this classic movie. I watched James Dean's East of Eden a couple of months back and that too did not appear magical.

Did you remember this other movie done 20 years later starring Robert Redford and Demi Moore. Demi Moore was so beautiful in this movie. Indecent Proposal.

Here billionaire Robert's character offered husband and wife, Demi's character USD1 million for a night with the wife.

I guess today Ashton Kutcher sees Demi as I saw her in 1993.

The Computer Shoppe has Moved!

The company I am with Stone-Mashe Sdn Bhd attempted a retail store some years back.

The store had 2 identities; a Hewlett-Packard Original Cartridge Store and The Computer Shoppe.

This store based in Danau Desa in Taman Desa has moved. The following 3 photos should tell us the story of the exodus.

Some of you may know Ming Hong and Jeremy.

The new place is 2 doors away from my current office in Desa Business Park, Taman Desa.

There will be a change in store identity. The new place is now undergoing some finishing touches and when done, I shall put up another report with some fresh photos.

Cheers!

Is There Room in Science for God

In the Star newspaper yesterday, I read an interview by Wong Chun Wai with the great Stephen Hawking.

The answer to this question fascinated me somewhat.

You are a man of science. Is there room for God?

The question is, is the way the universe began chosen by God for reasons we can’t understand, or was it determined by a law of science? I believe the second.

If you like, you can call the laws of science God, but it wouldn’t be a personal God that you could meet, and ask questions, though if there were such a God, I would like to ask how ever did He think of anything as complicated as M-theory in 11 dimensions

Jeradyne told me. "He could very well be the most intelligent dead person in Hell!"

Hawking was the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge for thirty years, taking up the post in 1979 and retiring on 1 October 2009. He is also a Fellow of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge and a Distinguished Research Chair at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ontario. He is known for his contributions to the fields of cosmology and quantum gravity, especially in the context of black holes. He has also achieved success with works of popular science in which he discusses his own theories and cosmology in general; these include the runaway best seller A Brief History of Time, which stayed on the British Sunday Times bestsellers list for a record-breaking 237 weeks

Sex Addiction?

Is there such a thing as 'sex addiction'?

If there is, can it only happen when you can caught? I can't get close enough to Tiger Woods and Ashley Cole to check.

Wikipedia says "Sexual addiction refers to a phenomenon in which individuals report being unable to manage their sexual behavior. It has also been called "sexual dependency," and "sexual compulsivity."

.

So when Tiger met Joslyn James and the dozen like her, he was unable to manage his sexual behaviour.

Yeah right!

Ok now, if there is such a thing, how does rehab work. I understand they have this 14 steps or so of like detoxification. You are not supposed to have sex. Absolutely no masturbation. Its like they wean you off a drug addiction. Yah, cold turkey!

Do you know if the pharmaceutical companies are working hard in their labs to come up with a counter Viagra. Let's see, can we name it Argaiv? Looks and sounds cool.

Maybe it would be yellow in color. So like if you see a girl like this in Sungei Wang, and if you are unfortunately being afflicted with this condition, you retrieve from your pocket and pop this yellow little pill into your mouth. Then close your eyes and look retarded for 15 minutes and walla, you're okay. Of course, by now the chick would have gone. She won't be still standing like this and staring at you. And remember about the masturbation abstinence part.

Can a woman be afflicted with this unfortunate condition as well?

.

"No Mr Husband/Boyfriend, that good looking hunk does not mean anything to me. Now that you caught me, I must admit I have this sex addiction problem that I have been hiding from you. Really, I was with him for the sex only.

.

Yes, I think I should check into rehab like some celebrity. You can pay ahr?"

The Rakyat should be made aware of the "Real Situations"

Indeed, your questions should be answered.

Indeed the Rakyat should be made aware of the "real situations". The opposition has been alleged, maybe correctly, to politicizing events and lies were told to the constituents, the people. The government warned us of not falling into deceptions by Pakatan Rakyat and their sympathizers. Well, okay. Why not do something! Tell us! Answer our questions! Erase our doubts!

Instead of explaining privately to the MPs of Australia, why not explain officially to all of us; via the existing media.

Amongst others, my facebook friends has legitimate questions and these same questions are asked over and over again. There is no way that the authorities do not know about the Rakyat's concerns. Are the questions too difficult to explain? And if they are, then something is not right!

Jullie mentioned that the 3 women caned were supposed to be for adultery. Then why aren't the men being punished as well?

Sean mentioned that sex outside the sanctity of marriage and sodomy can't be as serious as corruption. Why are the courts and the government not concentrating on the really important stuff and waste the courts' time and the rakyat's money. And what kind of outdated laws do we have.

Ivan mentioned that what motives can the 2 convicted policemen have to blow up the Mongolian woman. He would like to know.

Jeeneze mentioned about the secrecy shrouded in the case of the 3 women being caned. Nobody seemed to know anything about the proceedings. Then a conviction was arrived at and the caning was done. And the women repented. Really?

Joanne too wondered about the dubious outcome of the Mongolian murder trial.

What happened to this old adage of "Things must not be just done right. They must be seen to be done right!" or something to that effect.

Aussie MPs and I do not know real situation

In The Star newspaper today,

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Government, through Wisma Putra, will explain the “real situation” to the Australian MPs who had called for the sodomy case against Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to be dropped, said the Prime Minister.

“We will explain and engage with the Australian MPs. Wisma Putra will handle it. I don’t think they know the real situation,” said Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak at Gerakan’s Chinese New Year open house here on Sunday.

Najib said this when asked to comment on the Australian MPs who had lodged a formal protest urging Malaysia to drop the sodomy charge in the interest of building “confidence in the impartial rule of law in Malaysia”.

Almost 60 Australian MPs, including frontbenchers from both sides of the divide, had signed a letter in support of Anwar

I am certainly not aware that there is a "real situation".

If there is, then the current situation is .. maybe not "real"?.

Okay, if that being so, let the authority explain to all and sundry; me inclusive. I am sure there are others who would be interested to know the "real situation" other than the 60 Australian MPs.
