Yummy....


Pork knuckles..... yum.... suddenly missing what I had for lunch in Germany....


Clueless where to start

I hate it when I have to pick up a project right from the middle.... and worse if it entails something that is already in use and requires massive re-write.

Supposed to revamp the website but there's so much to do!! Every part of the website and its component is in use and being constantly updated at the moment, but the revamp entails a whole re-structure of the site as well as adding in new applications, systems and when "lived", training of people to handle the content updating and management too.

Grr.... this is one colossus of a project and I just dread lengthy projects....

Warped movie experience....

Back from a long hiatus and finally getting back in pace with everything...

Went for a couple of movies recently. Saw Iron Man and Forbidden Kingdom. Iron Man was pretty good... and pretty cool. Loved the effects and Robert Downey Jr was pretty good as a different sort of hero.

Forbidden Kingdom... well.. the action sequences were good... and highly anticipated for Jet Li and Jackie Chan fans... but seriously I felt it was very warped experience... Seeing a whole bunch of Chinese actors dressed in elaborate period costumes speaking English to one another... rendered me speechless. It was totally WIERD!! Especially when the scenes came to Jet Li and Jackie Chan speaking English in mixed Chinese and HK accent.... eeewwweee....

Think there is a Mandarin version around... just not shown here I think....
