WHAT IS THIS?

Please describe what you see in the picture above. Some say IT is the No 1 Moron of Malaysia. What do you think?

THINK

Comedian George Carlin’s viewpoint and the message that comes with it seem so appropriate.

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Highways, but narrower viewpoints.

We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less.

We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time.

We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.

We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life.

We've added years to life not life to years.

We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbour.

We conquered outer space but not inner space.

We've done larger things, but not better things.We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.

We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.

We write more, but learn less.

We plan more, but accomplish less.

We've learned to rush, but not to wait.

We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships.

These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes.

These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.

It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom.

A time when technology can bring this message to you, and you have a choice of either sharing this insight or just ignore it.

Just take a moment and THINK about it.

Wrong and Wrong.

The Mud Party Continues

There has been many wrongs in the past 24 hours or so but the biggest mistake seems to be in me being 'over-confident' that Umno president Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi would lead the party Supreme Council into deciding on the General Assembly in December and not March 2009.

The reasons and rationale for an earlier date in December had been deliberated upon by every Tom, Dick and Harry but Pak Lah has obviously stuck to his 'personal plans' rather than taking into consideration the affairs of the country and us, the rakyat.

My earlier posting quoting highly placed sources in Putrajaya is clearly inaccurate or wrong BUT has the Umno Supreme Council done the RIGHT thing ... or are they totally WRONG in extending the duration for sabotage, mudslinging and dirty politics in the party?

You be the judge, jury and executor ... during the crucial General Assembly in March, if Umno survives for that long!
