DIY?

 

There are singers. And there are song-writers. Some people do it all (Freddy Mercury comes to mind).

Some people are great writers but can't sing. Other have awesome voices, but don't have the jive to rhyme. Just like actors oftentimes depend on screenwriters. And directors. 

But I guess that Damon Albarn

- Doesn't eat food prepared based on someone else's recipe
- Won't live in a house designed and build by someone else
- Watch movies that are not en-acted by the very people that wrote the script
- Buy art that was originally commissioned by someone 

I now need to google "Damon Albarn"... 

Drinking Frenzy About to Begin!

 

In an earlier post I spoke about this beverage already. After several weeks of it being totally unobtainable, it is BACK! Yay, Captain Speedy is back on the shelves. And with a vengeance: the price. The first bottle I bought back in 2020 was RM 139. Now this!

A lil trivia copied from Wikipedia:

In 1871, Speedy sailed to the Straits Settlements in Malaya and became superintendent of police on the island of Penang. He resigned in 1873 to raise and command a body of Indian troops to restore order in Larut, a mining district in the Malayan state of Perak, for the Mentri (Chief Minister) Ngah Ibrahim.

In 1874, Speedy was appointed assistant British resident of Larut and established and named Malaysia's oldest town, ‘Thaipeng’, meaning 'Heavenly Peace'. He remained there until 1877.

Clever Messaging Now Requires me to Test!

 

Smart! This is one clever way to announce that this kitchen towel is really powerful. 

But now I need to:

- Check a bottle of cooking oil as to how many calories are in 100ml
- Then extrapolate how many ml are 127Kcal
- Pour that amount of cooking oil worth 127Kcal onto a smooth surface
- See how much surface that covers

Good activity for a Friday evening!

Why bother with this either?

 

In Malaysia,

.... They do that cos nobody is cycling or 

nobody is cycling because they do this?

Happy to see that someone put a nice path in place. But seeing this, I no longer wonder wonder why people cycle on the street instead. 

Awesome Packaging

I expect this packet of chips to be mostly air. However, this is totally awesome. Found this among other rather bizarre items in the MiX Korean Convenience store... Yeah, the one the is open 8:00 to 26:00.

Wonder if I could scare the kids with this?

Gearing-Up!

 

As this is customised, my Christmas present took a little longer to arrive. With this, I now have the grill and the attire! Will need to find a reason to put this to use...Oh, look! Chinese New Year in a few days. Guess that settles it. Maiden grilling in this then. 

A New Book Project?

 

Snapped while driving around on Friday. There are a lot of these "911"s around in Malaysia. Amazing quality this must be that these trucks are still running!

Every morning, there is a convoy of these, moving timber, coming trough where I live. One day I need to intercept them to take pictures too. I think there are enough of them still in operation to allow for enough pictures to be taken for another book. Maybe each with a story about the owner / driver?
