Dr M says that his old pals are avoiding him, they won't want to get close to him or sit at the same table with him. I guess he's beginning to feel lonely.
And I'm not surprised either that they're avoiding him, with all the *hoo-haas* going on who wouldn't? You wouldn't want to step on someone's tail...
Well, I don't mind sitting with you, if you don't mind having a not so constructive conversation :-)

Mega Sale finally over...
Finally!! the mega sales is over...Have you managed to buy anything over the few weeks? As for me, I did not! why you ask? a few reasons I guess...nothing to buy, price wasn't right and the traffic.
The traffic is rather the major turn off. Firstly, it takes almost an hour to get into the mall, then another half an hour to 45 minutes to look for a parking lot. Once in the mall, there's payment counter traffic...*sigh*
And for the price matter, aside from the genuine mega sales outlet some of these shops are out to do a quick buck. On a normal day, they sell their goods at 20-30% off the suggested retail price trying to be competitive - they tell you its their normal price. And during the sales period, they provide 10-20% discount off the suggested retail price and they heavily advertise it. Consumers that don't do their research will think its a good buy but hey! you might be able to get a better bargain after the sales... :-)
and speaking on sales and mall...it seems malaysians' favourite past time is shopping or *lepaking* at the mall...even Richard and Shaz from Mix.fm confirms this...the other favorite past time is eating :-) and as their question, what else can we do besides shopping and eating on weekends?

Multi-tasking
I say, how many things can you do while you're driving? normally we can talk on the phone and drive, eat and drive, etc....so that's 2 things at once most of the time.
An article in The Sun - A saleswoman in Geneva was caught driving while using her notebook and chatting on the phone, they didn't mentioned if the notebook was on the lap or if she's using any handsfree though but hey thats quite a daunting task especially with a notebook. Its like how do you type on the keyboard and operate the mouse? When caught she said, "I was driving like I always do". :-)
With the spirit of "Malaysia Boleh!", how many things do you think, can a Malaysian do at once? Too many I assure you :-D

*Village* Massage
Happened to follow a car this morning on the way to work, it was a black Proton Saga Iswara Hatchback. Didn't pay much attention to it until something caught my eye - www.urutkampung.com.my on the back windscreen. It was like *wow!* not only do they advertise on taxis and buses but on cars too. Normally you'll see car stickers of Unis, Audio companies, Car tune-ups, etc. but no! not this car...it had a *kampung* (village) massage ad. Came in to office, launched my Firefox and www.urutkampung.com.my it is...
what i found out...a 100% man to man traditional massage with a malay, thai and western twist. claimed to relieve pain and enhance relaxation and senses. and at the end of the first page.
Dealer for the products - Trebest, Jade Ring and Maca to treat impotency, Pysupergel for premature ejaculation and Tapa Leech Oil for smoothing blood circulation of the penis. *muahahahahah!!*
a bit more adventurous I went to the price page, what do i get? Manhood Theraphy (urut tenaga batin) for RM100 per treatment...muahahahahahah..of course there's other treatments :-)
