Today sad becoz nobody could use IM anymore...

Today, it is confirmed that even my super proxy was blocked in HK.

Yesterday, nobody could access to any instant messenger and I could not stream to my fav HK radio, 903!

So I thought it might be a glitch that could be fixed in no time.

Today, still the same, so I guess it's confirmed that I got no access to outside world already!

NO IM!!! NO LIFE!!!

Talk to the hand, I cannot do work without 903 and IM!

Tiu lei lou mei!

I guess it must be the rain! Fuck, there's one stoopid who came to talk cock to me about insurance.

Tiu nia ma, I have PA okie! The problem is I am not mad about insurance, but the fuckin' way you said it!

WTF is the use of telling me the consequences of getting sick and died?

He told me that if I died, then my brothers and sister could inherit the claims.

He told me that if I died, and if my sister married a poor bastard, then she cud use the money.

He told me that if I died, my kids cud have some money to continue studies.

Ma chau hai, u think my brothers are slobbery drug addicts ar? Fuck, one is in banking and the other one in accounting lar!

Tiu nia ma, I can't foresee my sis's future, but we can leave that to fate. And my sis is very much capable of taking care of herself! Heck, my parents are more than capable of taking care of her!

WTF, this is the main reason why I got so mad! Tiu, do u hafta sacrifice so much for the kids?

I can see this all happening to you dumb fuck. Yes, you buy into so many packages of insurance, but I am really sorry to see your pity sorry life! Fuck, an RM95 voltage regulator for ur car is expensive! An RM10 occasional lunch is expensive! What's cheap for you?! Tiu, you are 30 odd and juz look at ur life!

Yeah, when u die of natural cause, and you look back, tiu, have you lived your life?!

You fuck sober!

Sushi without wasabi


The recent CDP comparisons have really opened my mind and enriched my knowledge, which I have never imagined gaining without years of bumpy rides!

I have been trying to replace my current CDP, tried Benchmark DAC1, no luck. Then I brought home the CEC TL51XR, the latest mid entry player from CEC. A belt driven transport with 24/192 DAC. Please be careful though, there are many players touting a 24/192 DAC, this only means that they are multibit players. They are not upsampling players, the players must explicitly state upsampling, or else, they are just 44.1 players.

Anyway, the CEC is no slouch a player. Giving instruments a complete harmonic texture with almost grainless presentation. Is this analogue sound? I'm not sure, but switching back to my Sony tells me surely that it is. The sound is rich and the mid is just smooth, tangible and densed. The Sony is a bit on the soft side, light weighted and grainy as compared to the CEC.

Technically, the CEC is very much more superior sounding than the Sony. There is no shortcoming in speed, drive and extensions. You want inner details? Plentiful. However, this player is neutral to a capital T! Well behaved and very much indifferent in presentation.

I once thought that the source should be as neutral as possible with almost no coloration at all. Hence, I normally stick to Jap players due to the cultural appreciation in freshness and rawness in food/seafood. And the CEC has got no problem in giving you this, everything is fresh from the CD with no additive at all!

However, when pitted against the behemoth Meridian G08, everything just paled down! The CEC lacked the extra zing, the quality to get you engaged in the music. Cheer track 11 seemed bland. Michelle's latest album brought no indulgence, too, she seemed like cold fish straight from track 1, which is not supposed to be!

With an entry level setup like mine, the CEC is able to give you well defined body, width and depth. But still, the cold fish nature is still very much apparent if you listen carefully. At sub 6K, I could be very much happy with it if my setup is on the bright side. Heck, with Stage III pure silver jumpers, I could bring more out from this player, but still a cold player it is.

TL51XR sure is sushi, just without wasabi!

The past...


The past is like rain drops on the windscreen, no matter how hard you wipe, it would come back to haunt you.

Just a matter of time...

Take it easy!

I guess I have to take it easy! Nobody should share the same perspective as mine, and I have no rights to convert people! Even if I am fuckin' sure they're kept in the dark without realising it.

There's no point to try to get people enlightened when it is destined to be this way. Damn, it's just sad to see people dabbling in the dark when all you can do is... nothing much.

Shit, I have to take it easy!

Streamyx, pls let me sleep...

ZZZZZZ...

Can't wait to watch Princess Lulu!

Today is mama day...

Today is mama day and I wanna wish my mum a happy mama day, sorry that I could not be in hometown with you today.

Today is mama day and I got my streamyx working! For an IT guy, I am years behind to finally get myself connected 24/7 to the net!

Today is mama day and I juz realised how obsolete a Pentium III 733 with 512MB and GeForce 4 is! I manage to watch the Apple commercials barely in large mode!

Today is mama day and I am getting the Stage III jumpers tonite for a try out! Damn, silver is intoxicating!

Today is mama day and I just realised I am running short of HDD space even though I have 3 in the CPU. Damn, have to add that external 80GB!

Today is mama day and I juz washed my shirt and pants I wore months ago to my annual dinner!

Toady is mama day and I juz found out there is so much inadequacy in my current state.

Today is Mama's Day, I should stop bitching!

Sad...

I am kinda sad! I dun like to see ppl no up coz wutever goes around, comes around. You might hafta bear the consequences one day. But then, I have always been asking myself on wut's the purpose in life?

You got urself into this mud pit rat race, at the end of the day, you ask urself, wut's all these about. Why do I hafta screw my ass for nothing in the end of the life?!

Disregard of the journey or the destiny, wut have ya achieved? Have ya done anything to the things you loved? Your passions and desires? Have you strived harder to fulfill your dreams and hopes?

I joined this local M'sian audio forum recently and had really taken a bold strike in my perception in life, I am sad and almost lost hope! If I ask you one day that have you fully lived your life and what have you achieved in life?

Fuck! I guess all, if not most, would sigh pathetically! What have you done when you lived and tagged along the journey of live? What have you achieved when you are almost done with your life?!

I guess most would reply I have worked hard and I dun have any regrets in my work, but I cannot afford this cable because I am a retiree living on limited budget!

WTF, STAY AWAY FROM ME!
