Michael 'The King of Pop' Jackson is dead...

I went to sleep knowing the death of my favourite pin up Farrah Fawcett and woke up this morning with the news that Michael Jackson died. He was 50 years old. His death was officially announced by his brother Jermaine Jackson.

To tell you the truth... he is not my favourite singer... but he is a music genius and absolutely a legend. I grew up listening to Billie Jean, Thriller, Beat It, Smooth Criminal, Bad, Black or White... fuh... they were all not just excellent music... the music videos were equally legendary. It really shows how creative he is.

He is still holds the record of having Thriller the best ever selling record of all time... about 50 million album sales worldwide. A record that will not be broken... yes... it will not be broken just because in this day and age... people download their music ;)

He is a true legend with the title "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career — more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era and the sale of 750 million records worldwide. His last concert tour was way back 15 years ago but his supposed to be 50 last comeback tour "This is It" sold out in 4 hours. Shows that his music still have a place in this day and age. Tribute from people all over the world came pouring in once his death was announced...

Like Elvis... the King of Pop lives on... moon walking in the sky... Here is my favourite MJ song...

New hair cut...

Got me new hair cut today... its my first hair cut since I came to the UK 9 months ago.

The haircut cost me 9 quid... so 1 pound a month for a hair cut... not bad.

Sultan Johor: No third bridge...

The Sultan of Johor has rejected the proposed third bridge linking Malaysia and Singapore. Read here and here.

The Sultan convey his message through the Tunku Mahkota during the Johor state assembly opening.

So how now Datuk Seri Najib..? My advice to you... just start back the Scenic bridge project that our old sleepy PM put to sleep. The Sultan wants it... Johoreans wants it... only Singapore doesn't want it... now why do we need to kow tow to Singapore?

Tok Guru Nik Aziz has spoken...

Tok Guru Nik Aziz has ask Nasharudin to join UMNO if he still wants to pursue unity talks with UMNO. Read here, here, here and here. Rasa macam Tok Guru baca posting aku je... hehehe :D

In a flash... what Tok Guru said was a bit harsh but I personally stand behind Tok Guru on this. Why is he angry..? Simple... Nasharudin had it coming and somebody from the top have to stop him. Kasi berdesing sikit telinga dia tu. I still stand for what I wrote... Nasharudin have to answer the 60 questions and if he still adamant to push for the unity talks then its better for him to join UMNO. Last time before the election... UMNO/ BN launch 'Zero Opposition' campaign... in Kelantan 'Pade Doh' campaign... remember that campaign Nasharudin... or you are in the 'Melayu mudah lupa' group..?

Tun Mahathir was asked about the unity talks... read here for his reply. He raised some good questions about the talks... something to ponder upon. I like this quote:
“Without the opposition, we may not know what we are doing wrong. This is something we should uphold. We should not have a one-party state like certain countries,”
Err... you mean Singapore..? ;)

Kari Kepala Ikan... yum... yum...

Today we went to Longsight Market and bought some salmon fish heads. And here is the result...And I can tell ya all... its delicious :D ... yum yum... salmon curry fish head... tangkap leleh...

When I was studying here a decade ago... you can get fish heads for free... hell... you can get chicken liver and 'tongkek' for free which I got like bucket loads as I was living on top of a halal meat shop. Now its 50 pence for a fish head and 2.50 quid/kg for chicken liver. Guess the Brits caught up with our craze for fish heads and chicken liver... nothing is free now days... sigh.

60 burning questions for Ustaz Nasharudin of PAS...

These are questions that I think Ustaz Nasharudin have to answer... read it here as posted in Kickdefella.

Personally I am with Tok Guru Nik Aziz... its a ploy by UMNO just to save their currently burning asses. It is a clear ploy and it baffles me why some of the leadership in PAS can't see it. Are they blinded by positions offered by UMNO is anybody guess... but it does raised questions.

I am not a member of PAS but PAS has always been close to my heart... it was disheartening to see Husam lost to Ustaz Nasha but hey... its democracy... and its not a total loss to Husam or to PAS. But to see Nasha keep on harping on this unity government when it is totally obvious it is not favourable to PAS makes me think of him as a nincompoop. And he is dragging Tok Guru Haji Hadi with him which makes it even worse.

So... Ustaz Nasha... stop what you are doing and take your time to answer these questions... and if you still feel that you need to go and talk about unity government then I guess go and join UMNO la... simple as that.
