Besut Stud Exits Stage Left

Me and Besut Stud 48 days ago

It is 6.00pm on December 7th, 2006. Besut Stud has left the Tairoo Factory.

Finally.

So he is now out of the race to determine who will outlast and become the champion as The Last Local Male In The Tairoo Factory.

He will be commuting to a place much farther than he has to as at 5.59pm, but I guess it will give him the satisfaction where he will actually see that there is life outside the box. First, he will face the shock of having to put his brain into full utilisation, something Walking Vibrator, TNB CEO Lookalike and I had to go through 8 months ago…after years of compresing the brain into peanut size as had to deal with stupid people and incalcitrants.

Good luck bro. On the bright side, no more sharing polluted air emitted by morons.

There Is Light At The End Of The Tunnel – Part 2

Soon...very soon...hopefully tomorrow

My Princeton Tec Shockwave LED light left Ohio on December 5th and passed through Cleveland (Ohio), Louisville (Kentucky) and Anchorage (Alaska) on December 6th, and today it arrived at Chek Lap Kok airport in Hong Kong and is now subjected to an X-ray inspection. It is due to arrive in my hands tomorrow (December 8th).

Yippee!

December 7th

USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbour

65 years ago, the Pacific phase of World War 2 began. But contrary to popular beliefs, the first salvos of the pacific War was shot NOT at Pearl Harbour, but here in our own backyard – near Kelantan.

A RAF PBY Catalina was shot down by the Japanese as it monitored the Japanese invasion fleet that was closing in on Malaya. It was around 10am on December 7th, 1941 local time (or, 10.30am according to our time now, or, 4.30pm on December 6th in Honolulu, Hawaii). Shortly after midnight of 7th/8th December local time, fierce artillery salvos were let loose and the Japanese invasion of Malaya was underway. At this time, it was just after 6am on December 7th in Hawaii, and Admiral Nagumo’s planes were just on their way to Pearl Harbour.
