I just got done watching Episode 1 of TopGear’s Season 5. It was entertaining, no doubt - it’s got great storytelling, visuals, and of course, cars. But while I was watching it, I couldn’t help but ignore this nagging feeling at the back of my mind that the time spent watching the show wasn’t ever […]

I think you’re crazy… Just like me !, originally uploaded by Nas .
They say that learning isn’t like a ramp, but like a step. A leap of faith would be succinct, to put it another way. Because, to be honest, faith isn’t grown, it is learned.
Ever since I started work, something in me has […]

Dad bought me a lovely Canon 400D body for my birthday recently (Thanks, Pa!).
I’ve been shooting quite randomly - at plates of sushi, ceiling lamps, people, friends. I really like it. It’s a lot more 21st century than the Nikon FM that I loaned from my dad years ago.

For some odd reason, emotion got the better half of me, and I decided to go buy the Bialetti Mukka Express Cappucino maker. I blogged about my initial discovery a few months ago, when I had dinner at Neroteca with LL.
It operates in the same fashion […]

I feel like I just entered a time warp into the future. Since a decade ago, I’ve been gradually ignoring pop culture to the point of now not ever watching a single episode of Heroes or Lost, not ever listening to Fly.FM or ever being in line to watch Transformers.
I’m now in an odd dilemma […]

Johnny’s new toy rabbit

We got our hands on a Nabaztag at the office - the original one, not the one with the belly button. It’s not as big as its larger-than-life on-screen persona. And it doesn’t offer much instant gratification at the touch of a button, as it really […]

Apple TV top and front
Originally uploaded by niallkennedy.
I’ve been toying around with an appleTV, which was acquired at my company recently for showcase demo purposes. It’s pretty slick, if you don’t think too hard - because you start to realize quickly that you can quickly reproduce a lot of functionality like that on […]

My wife and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary at a very wonderful italian restaurant tonight, called Neroteca. It’s located at the ground floor of the Somerset Apartments on 8 Lorong Ceylon, which is near where Tingkat Tong Shin and Changkat Bukit Bintang is.
If you know where Istana Hotel is, at the side of that […]

You’ve probably seen it. And if you haven’t, when you do come across it, it will blow up in your face. It’s an Arco lamp. Designed by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni (that’s two people) way back in 1962.
Wikipedia describes it as
a long, curved arm extending eight feet from the marble base which had to […]
