Look, no matter what you are going to say about him, I still think L is just cannon fodder!!!!

I hate it when my friends don’t reply back when I sms them. Yeah, I know it’s their right not to even bother replying, but it’s annoying!! Just today, I sent 3 SMSes to the same friend. No replies till now.

Maybe the friend is angry at me or doesn’t want to be friends with me anymore, I don’t know. Maybe he or she has PMS(guys have PMS days too), or had an argument with his/her boyfriend/husband/wife/girlfriend/friends/relatives/parents..etc. I don’t know.

However, it’s really annoying when you sent a SMS, and you get no replies at all. I reply to most of my SMSes. I can say I have sent a majority of a single “OK” SMSes over the years. So, each time I sent “Ok”,  I get charge RM0.05 (less for some other hand phone service provider). How hard is it to just reply “Ok”? And is RM0.05 really that expensive in the first place?

Answer (Those not using T9) : press 3 times on the “6″ button and press 2 times on the “5″ button.

Answer (Those using T9) : just press “6″ and “5″.

Damn, if RM0.05 is still too expensive, then I would suggest that I PAY for the reply. At least I know my friends have read the SMSes I sent, rather than me second guessing or shamefully thinking of sending another SMS to trick them into replying!!!!!!

“Yes, Hopefully I can!”

Barack Obama might have won the United States of America Presidential Election, but don’t be too comfortable yet. Or at least that is what Malaysians are thinking now about Barack Obama.

Whole day, people around me are saying “Barack Obama history could turn out to be like our Abdullah Saga.”

I can safely say Malaysian’s are probably one of the few countries in this world that is cautious about President-elect Barack Obama because we already seen an example of  “Worst case scenario”  from our own political saga.

One of my friend even say “Don’t be so sure yet. He might turn into Abdullah v2 just on a larger scale.”

In fact, one of my working colleagues even say “I think people voted for him because they are already fed up with the current administration. See the familiarity with our political landscape?”

Let just say, most Malaysian “ARE” not going to celebrate (Like other country are doing) just yet. It could turn out to be the worst 4 years for everyone in the whole world.

Yup, we Malasysian learn it the hard way. Hopefully, Barack can do something. Hopefully.

Over the weekend, was out with my photography group when suddenly in the car, one of them was asking how to spell “40″. So, I spelled out “F” “O” “R” “T” “Y” = FORTY. Which prompted a reply from another of my photography buddy of mine saying that I am wrong. 40 is not spelled as “FORTY”.

At that moment in my mind, I was thinking “What the hell? Since when forty is not spelled as “FORTY”?”

And they insist “FORTY” is WRONG and it’s something like “FOURTY”. They are not even sure. Another even say if you write “FORTY” on a bank cheque, the bank will reject it!!!

I was totally stumped. Since when did they changed “FORTY” to something else?

Quickly I grabbed my handphone, started up Opera Mini and surfed to http://dictionary.com. Keyed-in “FOURTY” and you will get the following results.

NO RESULTS FOUND FOR FOURTY!!!!

Ok, maybe dictionary.com is not updated. Maybe some British English Professor’s finally came up with a justification that “FORTY” must be changed to “FOURTY” or something like that. So, I checked with a British Dictionary online site.

Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary. And below is what I got.

So, did our English language get REVAMPED when I was sleeping? Or I have stepped into another dimension, where “FORTY” is spelled as “FOURTY”? or something else? Or my photography buddies basically SUCKS in English?

I guess last night MCA election whatever is the last nail in the coffin for MCA. It DOES NOT matter WHO becomes the MCA President, Vice-President and it’s other whatever posts. MCA should expect the fact :

Adobe created one the best software in this technological era. Photoshop. It’s the best or one of the best graphic/photo/picture manipulation/creation/whatever that is related to graphics/photos/pictures computer application. However, I do feel the photoshop has cursed the photography community for eternity. Hence the title “Photochopped by Photoshop.”

Why is Photoshop a curse rather than a miracle for photographers?

First, although I am not pulling this out of my ass, there are bound to be people screaming “You don’t just pull [photoshop curse] out of your ass your noobie bastard.” or something like that. Believe me, if I am pulling this out of my ass, I won’t have wrote this in the first place, as who would want to read anything from someone’s ass?

Ok, lets get that out of the way and continue with what I am going to say.

Photography used to be a very credible (I am not saying it’s 100%, because sometimes photos can be misleading if the composition is taken out of context or taken from other pespective or is a setup, but overall it’s credible to say the least.).  Sadly, when computers came in and photo manipulation software came in and then the final nail in the coffin in the form of Photoshop came in; Photography suddenly is branded “uncreadible” anymore. Any photo can be manipulated with the clicks mouse on a computer. Then there is a new breed of DIGITAL photographers that even have this belief that Photoshop IS ESSENTIAL in photography.

I am very disappointed with this belief. Do I really need to use photoshop after I take a photo everytime? Essential because it helps make my photos more beautiful? Or because the photo fell short of expectation and my ego/reputation is at stake.

I believe even with Photoshop available, photography should not be about :

1. Take photo

2. Upload photo to computer

3. Start Photoshop and manipulate photos (or for most of the people, it’s call POST PROCESSING)

Come to think about it, step 1,2 and 3 wasn’t there before the computer came out and also the graphic manipulation thing years later. Did you even wonder how did those great photographers take their photos in an era where there is NO Auto-Focus, NO Metering, NO Light Meter, NO insane glasses, NO Computers, NO Photoshop, NO nothing that we have now? At yet their photos are so good, that people are still trying to take those exact shots until today?

You can laugh at me all you want, but photography isn’t about who can photochopped the best photos, but it’s about telling people a story in the photos WITHOUT any PHOTOSHOPING. Even the notion that photoshop should be use as a last resort is still not a wise notion, because you will be continously thinking “If I screw up this shot, there is alway photoshop.” mentality.

Naive as I am, I still believe that photography isn’t all about who has the great skill to photoshop photos after taking the photos. It’s NOT really essential to use photoshop in photography. And hell no, photoshop is not a miracle. It’s a curse and a damn bad curse for photography as a whole.

Photos can tell a story, but when it is photochopped/photoshop, then the story is a lie, no matter how much you try to justify it.

Don’t like what I just said? You are welcome to send me your hate mails, dead chicken, dead rat, anthrax, home made bombs or whatever.

After saving the Universe, you did think Simon and Nia (picture above) will live a happy ever after life? No….. for an impossible good deed they managed to pull off, they were punished for it. Nia is dead and Simon is bitter. Is this what happened when you are the good guys? If that is the case, everyone should do bad things, because bad people don’t die, don’t suffer, don’t…etc…… And don’t come and tell me “Life’s like that.” Not everything is “Life’s Like That”. So, my suggestion, don’t be the good guy. You will get punished for saving humanity and the universe!!!

I am having a dillemma. I need to know if I should pay for something that last a lifetime or something that would last 2 to 3 years max?

51 years, and we are no where near our target of developed country. The best we can do is STILL developing country. Look at Japan for god sakes. They are virtually a “surrendered” country due to WWII, but what is Japan now to the world?

Malaysia, oh Malaysia.

After March 8, 2008, BN is still in denial. They have totally lost touch with the people. Anwar and his 916 plan? Why can he confidently claimed it is the day for a New Malaysia? Because BN is still in denial. The Malaysian people are very angry. And the BN is still in denial. And BN probably will still be in denial after 916.

Malaysia, Oh Malaysia.

When every single blogger is in Kamunting, maybe that is the time to free Malaysia for good.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Malaysian needs a miracle. And if 916 is that miracle, pray for 916.

I hate football. PERIOD. (First thing you need to know before you start reading this post.)

Warning Notice/Disclaimer/Note/Whatever
Don’t start screaming “CONTRADICTORY” “YOU ARE CONTRADICTING YOURSELF.” either after you read what I am going to say. I read all news, even though I hate football, I still read about it, so that I can write about the most ugliest game in the world. Hence, this post.

I Want To Transfer
EPyuckL and all the footballyuck leagues are one wasting money industry/game/whatever. However, the fanatics will justify it by saying it’s the price to pay for the “Beautiful Game“(Beautiful my ASS). At the cost of those insane transfer fees, like for EXAMPLE the recent €42million (RM207million) paid for Robinho. A freaking RM207million?????

The money can be put to better use. Are you fanatics going to justify it because you get high just watching a game of footyuckball? Are you going to give 1000000000000000000 gazillion excuses on why so much money is being wasted for this kind of entertainment? Are you going to say because it’s the “Beautiful Game”?

Think of what the money can do for the benefit of people who really need it. People are starving/dying from sickness/etc out there. And because you all fanatics are blinded by the footyuckball so much, you don’t realize that the money wasted on these players can actually be use for other more BENEFICIAL uses.

Oh wait, it’s the Beautiful Game, are you expecting less?
Bottom line is, the money that is use to transfer/buy/loan these players can be put to better use. However, the reality is, most people on this planet is just too blinded by the “Beautiful Game“. They will probably throw me millions of justifications. Wake up people. It’s not worth that MUCH so that you can get a 90+extra time high every time. Oh wait, it’s the Beautiful Game, I expect nothing uglier than it.

Too much progress and technological advances, and you get disasters like this. A Space Colony dropping on earth!

Oh please, someone tell the Prime Minister of Malaysia that he either make some drastic changes or he make a drastic exit. And alternative way is to make Malaysia at least safe for people to actually SLEEP peacefully at night without worrying about the norturnal people!!!

I don’t care who does it. Make Malaysia safe and the people a peace of mind when sleeping at night!!!!!!

If not, then give us the right to PROTECT ourselves.

However, I still believe prevention is better than a cure.

I hope the PRs or BNs or whoever that even remotely cares for this country DO SOMETHING.

DO SOMETHING NOW!!!!!!

Been busy at work over the week, and have to work extra without pay tomorrow!!!! However, this is not the bullshits that I am talking about. I love my work. I won’t call it bullshits even if it is the last thing I do. What I meant by bullshits is the price hike of petrol. I don’t need to say anything more about it though. The whole episode is just one big BULL SHITS!!! I am happy that finally the cursed subsidy has been almost lifted, but the way it was done, I say BULL SHITS!!!!. Do it PROPERLY, not just drop the PETROLBOMB in everyone’s face and tell them “LIVE WITH IT.”. Pray tell me how? When everything SUDDENLY skyrocketed into the atmosphere!!! Maybe we should show our “People’s Power” again!!!!!

Bleh, lets just move on. I feel nausea just talking about it!!!!

It’s almost one year since I bought http://kennyljs.com/. It was going to expire in July. So, without hesitation, I renewed all three of my domains in one crippling move. The “crippling” part is my wallet being “crippled”. So, if anyone of my fans feel like donating, then please do so. The donation button is just on my right most sidebar. You might get a “[insert name] only” post! Just like “Deimos Only”. hehehehehe………
