Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum

Tweedle-dee Dum and Tweedle-dee Dee
They’re throwing knives into the tree
Two big bags of dead man’s bones

They’re taking a [...]

I love markets. When I was still a kid living in Kuala Kangsar, one of the most anticipated event of the week would be going to the market with my Atah @ grandmother. Despite the slippery watery floor and the smell of raw fish interchangeable with other unindentified odor, I still thought the market trips [...]

” Yang Arif, saya ingin menjatuhkan talak ke atas isteri saya kerana tindakan ini dipengaruhi oleh hormon vasopressin dalam tubuh saya. Kewujudan hormon ini menyebabkan keupayaan saya untuk menjadi seorang suami yang cemerlang telah dibatasi oleh faktor genetik”.
Can this be the latest creative grounds for divorce? I am not sure but this article has something [...]

A lot happened this weekend.
I laughed a few tonnes of great honest laughters and also cried a few ocean of melancholic tears. (note: I wished the night market in “Neverwhere” could conveniently float on our Klang River so I could buy my new supplies of laughters and tears. I ran out of both at the [...]
