Revival!!

Of some sort anyways. I'm going down (or rather UP) to Ann-Arbor this weekend so there's already a confirmed no update over the weekend. So instead, here are a couple links to tide you guys over.

1. All sports people have been supporting phallic symbols!! Quite an interesting read.

2. For all you people with nothing to do, however rare that is, try this. It's a homemade chinese version of Metal Slug. A great game.

Well that's it for now. Take care guys and have fun!!

Birthday Alert

Happy Belated Birthday to Kwong!!

The Ides of March. Was there any easier birthday to remember? Well, except my own that is. So here's wishing you all the best and pai seh cos I was on vacation and had no internet access so I couldn't do this on the proper day. Plus I was sick when I came back and am still sick... So no inspiring message.

Vacation

Starting tomorrow, I will be vacationing in the Big Apple, NYC. So there will be no updates. To tide you guys over, here are some funny (if lame and maybe disgusting) things. You have been warned.

1. So a guy goes to see a psychiatrist. He walks into the office covered with nothing but cling wrap. The psychiatrist takes one look at him and says, "Obviously, I can see your nuts." BA-BING!!

2. A guy walks into a bar with a newt. He goes up to the bartender and says,"Hey, meet Tiny." So the bartender asks,"Why is he called Tiny?" And the guy responds,"Easy, cos he's my newt!" (Think about that for awhile) BA-DA-DING!!

3. What do you call 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 piccolos? A gigalo.

Okie and for my finale, here's a video of a re-made Morning Musume music video. Allegedly done by some people in the Korean army.



Here's the original for comparison.



Enjoy.

霍元甲

霍元甲(Huo Yuan Jia) is Jet Li's latest kung fu flick. It's out in Asia already but the American release is gonna take some time. For the life of me, I　have no idea how that title translates to "Fearless" considering that the original title is the name of the main character...

But anyways, here is the MTV of the theme song with the same name from that movie. You can see how cool Jet Li's moves are. Looks to be an awesome film. Finally, a good Jet Li show. I don't know about you guys, but The One really sucked balls. Enjoy.



Also, here's a clip of Jay Chou performing that song live. He actually does that gu-niang sounding part by himself live. And the comment at the end of the song is really funny. Again, enjoy.

Sports News

It might be a little too late to cash in on the Winter Olympics but here are a couple of sports links. I use the word sports very liberally here.

Curling is an olympic sport. How is it an olympic sport, I have no idea, cos to me, it just looks like a couple of people sweeping ice in front of a flattened bowling ball. But if that's the kind of thing that tickles you, try this. Puppy curling is the latest in curling evolution apparently.

I would think that to most people, scissors-paper-stone is a very basic and childish game. But apparently, there are international leagues that organise professional competitions. And they are now bitching about it. Crazy sports fans indeed.

Well, that's about it for all sports stuff today I guess. Now I have to go and tackle the problem of estimating the cost of a heat-exchanger by pulling magic numbers out of my ass and using equations that I see in the clouds...

Birthday Alert

Happy Birthday to "Tucker" CJ Soh!!
Well, at least you got a "surprise" on your birthday eh? And I'd thought you would prefer "Tucker" over "I can jiggle my nehs" Soh. Cheers boy!

Aspen is T3H Suck

Okie, so as an engineer, we are expected to be able to create and run our own simulations. Cos it's a lot cheaper and safer to predict stuff in the PC than in an actual plant. All fine and dandy, but, perhaps in a ball-twisting piece of irony, I think working the simulation is very stressful and dangerous to the engineer him/her/hir(for the sexually confused engineer)self.

Case in point, my group started working on the simulation at 5pm today. At 930pm, we had scrapped 6 different versions of previous code and were working on 2 new ones. By 10pm, it really wasn't worth the effort to do the stupid thing anymore, and I ended up playing charades in the comp lab around 1015.

I think charades is an excellent way to have fun with friends, but unfortunately, I don't think enough people think it's cool. (At least, the people here anyways. I know back home, people are T3H |<00|_x0rz) But I must say, it was still pretty fun.

Sigh, the project is still incomplete and we need to do it tomorrow again... Aspen BatchSep is really t3h Suck. In honour of such awesome suckage, here's an anagram of Aspen BatchSep. Aspen BatchSep - He Snaps, Beat PC. If I could scold vulgarities at it now, I would. Screw ASPEN!!!

P.S. In a side note, it looks like Google thinks Aspen is awful too.
