She got the men all excited in Parliament yesterday at the mention of goats (Read story below. Source of photo here). The Deputy Minister Datuk Rohani Abdul Karim was of course referring to goat breeding but I am not sure what all the table thumping and chest beating male MPs were thinking but they seemed to be saying they could [...]

Back door entry to fame – Carburetor Dung goes global!
Posted in Ample-tude on July 10, 2008 | 14 Comments »
Try as I might to avoid politics and for lack of any interesting news, I did a search on Carburetor Dung and was I surprised at the fame these normal looking bunch of guys have achieved from their recent infamy. I can imagine that their brand of music and the statement they were trying to make did [...]
Hand Gestures: Good versus Bad!

No, I am not on strike because I don’t understand what the hell there is to strike about! Not being a “celebrity” blogger, I just blog for myself and to share an insane thought or two. If you find my blog not updated, it’s usually because I am either busy, lazy, bored or have a real [...]
Allure of Manure as Dung hits the fan!!!
Posted in Ample-tude on July 6, 2008 | 22 Comments »
I just added a front page photo from Utusan Malaysia that shows that the lead singer got mobbed by an incensed crowd at the event. See caption here.
That’s the name of their album “Allure of Manure” and I know I’m getting old but I never heard of Carburetor Dung (aka Dung), not until their lead singer was caught with his pants [...]
Migrate to Sim Land – Free Petrol for All!!
Posted in Ample-tude on June 6, 2008 | 4 Comments »
Munira’s comment on my previous blog brought me back from the brink of flinging myself off the edge of hopeless despairing darkness into Sim Land where fuel is forever free. In fact, in Sim Land I don’t even have to fill any petrol in my new hot rod! Well folks, my Utopia is called the [...]
Blogging beyond politics.
Posted in Ample-tude on May 28, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Blogs have become a hot topic these post-general election days and, because of my allergy to politics, I find it discomforting that this really great channel for sharing information with like-minded individuals has now become highly politicised. I just read these reports about “22 websites, blogs probed” and “Govt to engage bloggers in cyberspace” and marvel [...]
“A licence to kill” and Opposing for Opposition’s sake
Posted in Ample-tude on May 27, 2008 | 6 Comments »
Update: Well, it seems the Malaysian Medical Association is demanding full clarification over deputy Health Minister Datuk Dr Abdul Latiff Ahmad’s statement that doctors were “licensed to kill” as reported here.
As a lecturer in a local medical school many years ago, I used to impress upon my first year students struggling with human anatomy that, as [...]
For King and Country – How fickle the world of politics!!!
Posted in Ample-tude on May 19, 2008 | 7 Comments »
Just when I was suffused with sorrow at the recent demise of an outstanding Indonesian actor and one time politician renowned for his love of his country, a political earthquake errupts back home. I don’t wish to delve into the politics behind Dr Mahathir’s announcement that he has quit UMNO but just can’t help wanting to give a piece of my mind about [...]
Option still open: Grab ‘em!

I’m talking about “penis snatching” of course! Seems a viable solution in the midst of elected representatives posturing their machismo in the august house of parliament and the horror of a father whose inhuman betrayal of his daughter is blamed on the Nazi’s. The abject fear of getting their penis snatched ought to quieten them and stump every [...]
Whose that fat lady in the mirror?
Posted in Ample-tude on April 13, 2008 | 10 Comments »
I can’t recognise that person staring back at me when I look in the mirror these days! And to think that years ago when mourning my dad who died when I was taking my finals as a student in the US, I was so skinny that I was borderline aneroxic. But then, that was a long time ago. [...]
