You kid me right? Formula 1 you say?

Why do I fear that the 1Malaysian Formula 1 team is just another excuse to burn money?

Is it just me or did you also go...what? Formula 1? Haven't they learnt their lessons yet? What is with these people any way? What is with the craze for the "biggest, tallest, first" and what other what have you not. Incredible I say.
At a time when the giants in the motor industry having pulled out like Honda and even BMW which is scheduled to withdraw at the end of the present race season, the decision by Malaysia seems simply incredulous to me. Absurd even. It is one thing to host a formula one race but to compete in one? Didn't we learn anything from the past? Remember Alex Choong, Petronas/Sauber and Magnum?
Anyway the other thing that really got my undies in a twist was the fact that the former MB from Selangor was supposedly "grilled" for a few hours by the MACC. I say big deal. My immediate thoughts were why didn't they question him during the hours of 7pm till lets say 3.45 am? Did they take away his handphone away? Did they say no lawyers allowed?
Anyway why the lack of "urgency" as in some other cases investigated by the MACC? Maybe the MACC will say here "this one different lah". The other case that person was a witness, here this person is a suspect. Don't ask me the difference and who makes the distinction and what procedures are put in place to determine "urgency".
On the issue of garlanding anyone with shoes or slippers.....I say if the shoe fits then wear it!

Why have I not been writing?

Sick to my bones....that's why!

I have to confess that I have been feeling rather lazy these days. There have been many times where I had switched on my PC and logged on to this blog....just to go on doing something else instead! There had been many times in the past where I had the passionate urge to write a post on this blog but then decided otherwise for some strange reason. Just so weird!
Maybe it is a kind of sickness? I don't know. Just very strange! An example....I was compelled to write about how I felt when the "cow head" incident happened...yet I didn't. So weird...I wonder why?
Then i realised the problem. I was just getting sick and tired of the shenanigans that go on daily in this country. I am so sick these days that I just don't feel like writing any more. The powers that be are not listening."They" couldn't care less. In fact I fear that "they" are genuinely not interested in wanting to see a better Malaysia come about.
So what's the point in writing? Hmmm..................
