he he he.. more of aukei's..
This is the postcard I sent biwi from Beirut.
(she dumped it in my dumpster)
I'm leaving for Haret Hreik tomorrow to meet Hizbullah. I wish I could report that setting this up necessitated weeks of negotiation in middle eastern bazaars, being hustle blindfold to meetings with bearded swashbucklers hunkered amid piles of rifles in sandbag basement. But actually I just e-mailed them via their website athttp:// www.hizbollah.org, and said I'd like to come and visit, Hizb replied promptly, saying they'd be happy to have me.

bloody
here is also aukei's weird posting..
Count Drakool a.k.a Vlad The Impaler: Prince of Wallachia, Romania.
His father was a Turkish puppet.
Vlad and his younger brother; Radu the Handsome were sent to Turkish prison to ensure their father's loyalty to the Sultan. Vlad was supposed to be future Turkish puppet, but revolt against the sultan instead.
Across Romania, Vlad was hailed as a hero... their savior from the 'barbaric' Turks.
Vlad's favorite breakfast setting was: amidst the howling and cries of his impaled enemies.

DULL vs DUMB?
this is another of aukei's posting at DCCK.. which i liked very much.. the posting.. not aukei.
said aukei:
Thanks DS for confirming my suspicion all along.
I am not exactly sure how or what am I going to use this knowledge for. I am perfectly aware that increase knowledge can never destroy us. Using that knowledge for stupid reasons can. In spite of what human know we can still really dumb.
Years ago my friends and I went to a bar in way Northern Connecticut (hint, hint MA).
It was “trivia night”, we divide up into teams and the bartender read off a bunch of questions from trivia book yang di tulis oleh “Mr. Bing” dan kami tulis jawaban kami di atas sekeping kertas selepas “team meeting” and they would announced our answers publicly when asked and show the MC our paper.
What this ended up being was not a night of heated Trivia Competition but rather a night where the whole bar listened to me giving correct answers on everything.
They would always asked me “how do you know this stuff” and I’d tell them honestly “I read it somewhere” the point is that I choose to read and they did not ( I have no idea why the Trivia Game was popular there).
I was driving, memandangkan I was the only one who’s sober, (sebab tu boleh jawap semua soklan kot?) so on my way out I realized that I had locked my keys in the car.
Pretty stupid.
Got so angry with myself and yanked on the door a few times while yelling and drawing attention to myself.
The door suddenly opened and dummmn, it hit me square in the balls and I crumpled infront of everyone whimpering.
So, there I was….. the smartest guy ever in Trivia Night at the Evergreen Tavern (another hint MA) rolling around due to self administered nut shot.
My life of reading did not stop me from being a total idiot in real life.
So there my conclusion…. of this knowledge seeking thing:
restricting or indulging knowledge does not matter, it is the application.
Don’t know why I disclosed my idiotic past. Must be the sleep deprivation Ibrahim put me through.

D S B dan GUDANG
i have been very sick since sunday..
- demam
- selsema
- batuk
normally.. i would just lie down.. and have a restful sleep.. and the next very day.. i would b fine.. up and about.
but this time around.. phew! after all the medication and rest.. suddenly.. i m feeling really sick of my sickness.
i took a day's leave.. but still i m sick..
oh.. i came upon this reading while i was resting on my day off:
Tiga Gudang Allah s.w.t.
sebahagian hukama ada berkata:
"tiga perkara yang termasuk simpanan Allah Ta'ala.. iaitu:
- kefakiran
- sakit
- sabar"
mengikut sebahagian hukama.. ada tiga gudang.. yakni sesuatu yang disimpan oleh Allah.. yang tidak akan diberikan selain kepada orang-orang yang dicintaiNya.. iaitu:
- kepada orang fakir atau miskin
- sakit.. iaitu.. penyakit yang menimpa pada badan.. sehingga dirasakan tidak selesa oleh seseorang
- sabar.. iaitu.. tidak resah dan merungut ketika ditimpa sebarang musibah kecuali hanya ia mengadu kepada Allah swt dengan cara berdoa.
mengadu kepada Allah dengan cara berdoa.. hendaklah jangan sampai mengatakan bahawa dirinya itu tidak redha terhadap musibah yang menimpa ke atasnya.
ok.. i m taking another day's leave tomorrow.. my chest is burning..
