The Flame

I love this face...

There was a song I used to listen to some 23 years ago. It’s by Cheap Trick and it’s called The Flame. The girl above has nothing to do with it but Yuko Ogura is the kind of girl who’d keep my “torch” burning:

Another night slowly closes in,
And I feel so lonely.
Touching heat freezing on my skin,
I pretend you still hold me.
I’m going crazy, I’m losing sleep.
I’m in too far, I’m in way too deep over you.
I can’t believe you’re gone.
You were the first, you’ll be the last.

Wherever you go, I’ll be with you.
Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame.

Watching shadows move across the wall,
I feel so frightened.
I wanna run to you, I wanna call,
But I’ve been hit by lightening.
Just can’t stand up for fallin’ apart.
Can’t see through this veil across my heart, over you.
You’ll always be the one.
You were the first, you’ll be the last.

Wherever you go, I’ll be with you.
Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame.

I’m going crazy, I’m losing sleep.
I’m in too far, I’m in way too deep over you.
You’ll always be the one.
You were the first, you’ll be the last.

Wherever you go, I’ll be with you.
Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame.

Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.
Wherever you go, I’ll be with you.
And whatever you want, I’ll give it to you.

It’s Been A While

The HK P9S

Went shooting this morning. I was a bit rusty but still managed to make it to tomorrow’s semi-finals. I first shot with this sidearm back in 1988 when I was a serving military officer.

They’re still using it.

I should get my Glock.

Kimi’s Finally in KSA

Kimi has finally arrived in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I received an SMS from him yesterday about his arrival, stating how rude the Immigration officers there are. Well, nothing new. I just hope the ones in Malaysia would have learnt their lessons by now.

Kimi sent me this e-mail:

Yes, i’m finally arrived in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The weather is cool, windy & dry. Since it’s winter season, night temp can drop to 13 degree. It bites to the bone. Hah.

The people is nice too. The food is amazing. Expecting to see diff kimi in 2 weeks time. Lastly, women are hardly being seen around for obvious reason.
