Your Opinion Does Not Matter
Reference is made to Choy’s Blog entitled MAJORING MAJORITY
This blog officially declares Major Captain Corporal Choy as Major Choy.
He finally lost his three pips and invisible two-striped chevron on Monday 13th August 2007.
However, I was busy dating Mahal Ko and going diving so I didn’t realise. So Countloon will have to be the Duty Officer for the next seven (7) days in full celoreng for his failure to inform SeaDemon.
Congrats again, Choy. Go easy on the Chivas. The GRO I don’t mind.
Here are some pics taken by Bakawali of the recent trip to Perhentian.

Since my daughters Hana and Fazira will be celebrating their Hari Raya with their mother in Kedah this year (yes, the mother was recently widowed), and I have no where to go, not that I celebrate the stupid day anyway where people pig-out after a month of fasting like it’s the end of the world, let me see what I can plan for the Hari Raya break.
Hari Raya is a combination of Sanskrit and Orang Asli language from the Temiar tribe. Hari, in Sanskrit, is day, while Raya (pronounced as Rayak in Temiar lingo) means big.
So, maybe, I can do the IMCA course at IDESS in the Philippines for the first three weeks during the fasting month instead of waiting until after Hari Raya. Then spend the Hari Raya weekend/long hols diving in Puerto Gallera, or even the wrecks of Subic.
Hmm…the wrecks of Subic would be interesting. Technical diving….yeah.
Now, that is what I call Hari Raya.
This man’s son went missing after he found out that the son flunked his course and never graduated.
Yet he pines for his son, asking him to come back.
Such is the love a father has for his child, and yet the son doesn’t know how lucky he is to have a father like that.
Cos I don’t.
Shame on you!
For picking a fight with my daughters.
For accusing them of things without first checking.
For differentiating between them and their step-siblings.
For taking them for granted.
For ill-treating them.
For shaming their father in front of them.
For causing trouble to your husband in the name of self-satisfaction.
For not being there when your husband was ill.
For praying to God when you blaspheme.
For casting black magic spells on your husband.
For severing the ties between your husband and his family.
For shaming your husband.
For causing hurt to your husband, physically and emotionally.
For KILLING your husband slowly.
They say,
God cannot forgive the sins committed between human beings.
The Prophet is forgiving.
I,
Am a mere human being.
I am neither god.
Nor am I forgiving.
So,
No matter how many times you pray in a day.
Heaven for you moves farther away.
You may pray for riches and for being well.
I can only guarantee you a place in hell.
Shame on you!
A 55-year old diver has gone missing near Pulau Payar since 9th August 2007. A Search and Rescue operation involving local agencies and aircraft from the Royal Malaysian Air Force and coordinated by the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency is now taking place.
Both sea and weather has been quite bad for the area all the way up to Phuket.
For those going to Phuket in two weeks time, please be advised that weather conditions there are as follows:
20-27 August: mainly thunderstorms. Temperatures max at 32 Celcius and min at 23 Celcius. Southwesterly winds between 20 to 35 km/h and waves of about 2 meters. Thai Meteorological Department has issued the following statement:
Rather strong southwest monsoon prevails over the Andaman Sea and the upper Gulf. All ships should proceed with caution.
And as the 25th August will be 3 days before Full Moon, please be advised that currents will be gradually growing stronger between 25th August, peaking on the 26th until 29th when it would be the strongest, and will begin to grow weaker from 30th to the 31st August.
I shall be able to give full tide tables on the 24th August for the period between 25th August through 31st August.
I forgot the most important picture..sorry Cindy.
See how well Cindy blows. That is why gaduh-gaduh also Countloon sayang Cindy like hell.
HAR! HAR! HAR! 😀
The event wouldn’t have been a success if some people didn’t help and they were:
Jesmine shredding chicken
Charchar and Jesmine
Babysitter in the house while the wives enjoy
The laksa and its condiments. Cindy, you put what? Tulang babi in the kuah? Tastes nice. 😀
Don’t ask me what Jesmine was doing. She’s a rennaissance gal.
The guys enjying teh tarik: (from left): Choy, Lai, Icecool (sporting a Major smile), and Mocha.
It’s Cindy’s..errr…cannot put her age…birthday..and last night (Saturday 11th August 2007) had a celebration at her place. I expected Countloon to do all the chores but as usual, it was Cindy who did everything while Countloon assumed the post of House Regimental Sergeant Major.
Cindy fed all guests with Laksa Sarawak, cake…while the lads made teh susu, teh buih and teh-o pahit/masam.
Guests include Mocha, Icecool, Choy, Apekbarber, Lai, Lt Kol (B) Wong, Silvia (Apek’s wife) and baby Meredith, Charchar (Choy’s girlfriend), Christina, and Jesmine.
Everyone had a merry time drinking tea and issuing name cards.
Christina and birthday girl, Cindy
“Come! Come eat my Laksa Sarawak!” said Cindy, not knowing Countloon had an ambulance on the stand by somewhere
Cindy laughing at the size of the cake Countloon bought for her
There you go: Ribena, Grape Juice, Bubble Tea, Chrysantemum Tea etc etc
Icecool making teh tarik using Dutch Lady Low-Fat Milk
“Choy, with your ginseng head, you can drink Dutch Lady milk only,” said Icecool
The guys listening attentively to Cindy’s explanation on how to play UNO
Again, Happy Birthday, Cindy Sim…and thanks.
