Bad decisions are......
a) When the Durian decided to sue the Paper, and we all know what happened to Durian after that. Enough said.
b) When Creative Technology decide to sue Apple for alleged patent infringement (wanting to make a quick buck from the lawsuit perhaps?). Apple, naturally went on a counter suit against Creative immediately. For sure such a process will drag on and on, probably for years and the only true winner here, will be the lawyers. This kind of lawsuit is as if them lawyers have behaved like little good boys all year round and Santa decided to drop an early visit with goodies!
c) When Sony decide to make a grand unveiling of their latest Playstation 3 model and took out the rumble from the wireless controller and worst of all, pricing the damm thing at USD 599 in the US and 425 pounds in the UK (meaning 1000 bucks ++ over here!!). and the best thing is, after the grand unveiling, they have managed to push their target consumers more towards their competition. What they can offer, both Nintendo and Microsoft has already offered and more.....so, the only other plus point is the blue ray player. WHY THE HECK WE NEED A BLU RAY PLAYER FOR A GAMING CONSOLE ANYWAYS??.....Best thing is, they are telling GAMERS that this is a "cheap" blue ray player so go get one!!!....(err...I thought the point is in the games, no? Sony, no? yes? No? No? No?)
Why sometimes we ponder such decisions are made....

April Showers!
Someone asked me why I like the rain so much. Well, here's my top ten 10 reasons why I like it so!!
Ten reasons why I like April showers :-
10) It allows Big Foot in Johor to leave footprints so that I can get my daily Big Foot fodder on the newspaper!! (Otherwise news in Singapore is damm boring....)
9) It reminds me of Autumn in Melbourne 2001 and it brings much relief from the heat... :)
8) It gives me a reason not to have me car washed so often!! (lazy la - HA!)
7) It gives the lot of people an excuse to be late for work in the morning! (if it rains in the morning that is, not that it applies to me of course!)
6) It gives me a reason to not play tennis (HA HA HA HA - which I really should be playing actually!!)
5) It's nice to drive at night when the streets are wet and the city lights are reflected off the wet road...especially now with my DLO!
4) It gives people the reason to have longer lunches than usual ( Eating halfway - Damm! rain! oh well, coffee?....)
3) It drives away the haze! Brings back the fresh clean air!
2) It gives couples a chance to cuddle in public under a brolly!!
1) It's nice to sleep at night when the air is cool and the bed is cozy.......Yeah! ;)
There you go, top ten reasons why I like April showers so much!

Life is....
Life is pretty farked up sometimes, one man's demise is another man's gain. Is this how the world, the universe does its checks and balances?? Or perhaps we have not yet see the point to the way things are meant to be as yet? Or maybe there is no point in a pointless debate.
Perhaps that is the reason. Perhaps what we have, the so-called free will is but an illusion and at the end of the day we are part of a larger weave. We are but a thread on a weave of life.
Perhaps that is the point? Are we anything but pawns in life's game of chess? Perhaps because the beginning and the end are the same except for the victor. But what would it mean for the victor in a game of chess, which is nothing but loneliness in a land with nothing more to conquer?
How so then the scale balances itself? At the end of the road, we know what awaits I guess so in the meanwhile perhaps its wrong for us to assume that life will balance itself out, perhaps it is more prudent for us to balance OURSELVES out first.
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.
