A bowl of delicious steaming hot black parrot fishhead with vermicelli (rice noodle) in clear soup. Parrot fish is a great delicacy to many people in Asia.

SEX

i have not finished blabbing about food yet but i shall touch on sex today...

Sex is good, and God made it good

why should the devil have all the good sex?

let me be controversial :D sex is in the mind

if it is not mostly in our mind, why does pornograhy flourish? i believe it first start with our fantasy and fantasy is the domain of our mind. tempting images and forbidden fruits (echo of eden, eve?) only enhance the desire... don't you think?

so where is the explicit sex?
not explicit enough meh? its in your mind mah :D

more later

Smoking Beauty?

Here is another interesting advertisement.

It shows the link between smoking and beauty.

So smoking is cool?

Think again!

Health

(hmmm sex is good too... i will say something about this another time and knowing that my children and tai tai also come in and look see... it will defintely be explicit ;p )

yes grain cereals and yogurt defintely are food for healthy living

and exercise will not kill anybody :D


that's why we do them all responsibly to enjoy life

The Link Between Smoking and Sex

I found this advertisement interesting, there is a link between smoking and sex for males.

If you think that Viagra is the answer, think again.

Food

now that i started on food... do we eat to live or live to eat?
as you ponder on this...










one of my favourite is crispy skin roast pork. i used to be able to do a killer roast during my student days in the uk but.... now, lazy lo and also no equipment... i prefer the english cooker with a grill hood on top but i just cannot find it here in malaysia...

Pray and Touch.

Mar 7:31 Then Jesus left the territory of Tyre and passed through Sidon towards the Sea of Galilee, in the territory of the Decapolis. 32 Some people brought him a deaf man who also had a speech impediment. They begged him to lay his hand on him. 33 Jesus took him away from the crowd to be alone with him. Putting his fingers into the man's ears, he touched his tongue with saliva. 34 Then he looked up to heaven, sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha," that is, "Be opened!" 35 At once the man's ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to talk normally.

The context of this few verse is that Jesus returned to the Decapolis, the place where he delivered the demoniac and caused thousands of swines to perish, so much so he was not welcomed there. After a period of time, his returned was welcomed and people brought the sick to him. Why? Because Jesus sent the delivered back to testify of the healings.

Jesus taught healing by showing it. He touch the place of sickness and prayed. He looked up to heaven and then look at the disease. He prayed and he touched. He healed by praying and touching.

What are we to do when faced with challenges? Follow Jesus by praying and touching people.

Visiting Flood Victims

Sunday visit to a kampung affected by flood, barely 15 minutes out of Kota Kinabalu. Note the bad roads, that's why there are so many 4x4 in Sabah. We brought along rice, instant noodles and clothings for 29 families in this kampung who lost almost every possession to the flood.

We entered by 4x4s and on foot, young and old, 8 car loads went.


We left them with a prayer.



The really young one prayed too!












Update:
More than 7 days, the situation is not back really to normal yet

2 Sons

The Lord is good. I am blessed with 2 sons and a daughter. This is my reflections on my sons as they will soon be leaving home for further studies. My daughter has a few years left with us still.

Number 1 is naturally smart. Street smart, socially smart and athletically smart. Good looking, he has it easy as most things comes to him naturally without much effort. His academic results show 3 Bs and I think he could easily have gotten at least one A if not more out of those Bs, with a little more effort. He will go far in life. If he will be more disciplined, he will go even further. Number 1 is more into health. His course in either physiotherapy or dentistry will help people to remain and maintain health. He has chosen well. Financially whatever course he takes will be provided for, thankfully.

Number 2 is determined. He needs to work hard. Disciplined and quiet, he achieves what he desires. His efforts are showing the great results academically, socially, musically and in sports. He will do well in life with a good character. Not a natural leader but he will lead and will achieve great things. He will attempt feats and will overcome obstacles. He is more technical. His chosen course in engineering suits him well. Financially number 2 will be well provided for because of the conditional scholarship offered. Praying that his actual results will qualify for it. He is quietly confident about that.

As their father I am very pleased with them, what little input I have in their lives, they have both grown up well. More so because they both have their own spiritual understanding of the world and a very personal faith in Jesus. Both are now on the verge of leaving for further studies. I bless them and pray for them to continue on the journey they have chosen. I will continue to support in whatever ways I can.

Both have made good choices that suits their characters, rather than be persuaded to choose career that will earn the most. Financial rewards and job security will come sooner or later for those who excel in any field they choose.

RM2,280/kg Beef

Kobe beef, that legendary Japanese delicacy that can cost US$300 (RM1,140) for half a kilogramme, may be produced in Sabah. What meat can possibly cost so much?

Kobe beef
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Kobe beef is beef made from cows that are fed a diet enriched with beer and massaged lovingly by attendants in Kobe, Hyogo, Japan. Japanese Kobe Beef is well-marbled and very tender. The attention and time given to the cows is said to produce the best beef and gives Kobe beef a high cost.

diet enriched with beer and massaged!!!!

Question: Is it not better to drink the beer, get a loving massage at the same time while having a tender beef steak rather than to feed the cow, lovingly massage it and then eat the poor thing?

Football

The English Premier League is coming back soon. But my team will be the first in the league to play competitively. Why? Because they won the European Champions League! They are being punished and they need to play some minnows before they are allowed to defend the Cup! Silly isn't it?

They will be playing TNS (hey Liam, Jun, NM, not that TNS ok?) on Wednesday. After the saga of its captain, sanity will soon be restored, hopefully. :p

Come on you Reds!!!
