Simply Fabulous




I am not a ‘Flower person’…to me flowers fall under the few categories …and the list are
Sunflower…Carnation…..Rose….Orchid….Bougainvillea…and Lotus.

You can see what a simple person that I am ….my needs are simple…my desires are simple…my logics SIMPLER…..the common sense, SIMPLIEST….my thoughts, SIMPLY complex….
……and my philosophies are simple logic made simpler simply because complex issues are best ingested with simple logics based on simpler common sense.

To prove a salient point.…who in the world would use a flower to conceptualize a philosophy not unless he/she is a simpleton like me.

With that …I rest my case.

p/s ..if you don’t already know…the flower in the picture is a SUNFLOWER……
…I arrived at the conclusion through simple elementary deduction as you already know.
However…I stand corrected if you can proof me wrong with the right answer.

And with that…I rest my case.

p/ps….I am TOO BUSY to put it simply.

So and with that……I am resting just in case.

Belly Dancing.




I went for a ‘walk walk’ stroll to Petaling Street, the Chinatown at the heart of the Capital
…accompanying my family members.

Petaling Street is no longer the Chinatown per se because foreigners are employed to manage the stalls …..while the Chinese entrepreneurs diversified into Manufacturing… …Café….Restaurants… even some brothels and other more Lucrative legitimate businesses…like they say.. “GOING UPMARKET”

Belly Dancing and Brazillian Wax are the ‘in things’ and the current rage of the Metropolitan…anybody who is somebody at all is into Belly Dancing …

……while the very well oiled of the Crème de lale who happen to be the wives or mistresses of somebody who happens to be somebody who matters… are into Brazillian Wax… …it cost a BOMB per session with two free maintenance service for the DELUXE menu….and cost an “arm and leg” for the SUPREME PREULTIMATE with free AIRSTRIP worth $2000 and comes with a YEAR WARRANTY plus 4 Maintenance services and free access to the EXECUTIVE LOUNGE with one complimentary drink.

This article/essay is about Belly Dancing so Brazillian Wax is for another day to tell.

I tagged along blindly behind and ended up in this Belly Dancing shop..selling all kinds of Belly Dancing’s paraphrenia and nick knacks.

I wished Sam is into Belly Dancing…she needs it.

Come Belly Dance >>>>>




Latest I heard…It was just LAUNCHED….BOYZILLIAN…:faint:

Banana fritter Lady






The lady here is manning the stall for her parents and babysitting her nephew.
I patronized the stall for a few years now and I have seen this young girl growing up to be a fine young lady. Just a few weeks ago, I saw her driving her parents…how time flies.

I am happy for them because they are doing very well ….a far cry from when they first started. They are the HEROES of Asia.

The longish deserts are the Banana Fritters…the flatten pieces are the Yam and Sweet Potatoes Fritters. Of late, they started making doughnuts (simply delicious…the traditional doughnut). It cost $1 for 3 pieces of any pick.

King for a day.







Attended a Wedding Banquet held last Saturday to celebrate my nephew’s marriage in a Nirvana Ballroon of the International Hotel. It was GRAND and there was a sumptuous spread of exotic VEGETARIAN cuisine.

I enjoyed it thoroughly especially the Shark’s Fin that was made entirely of “I don’t know what”,… the Four Seasons….Vegetarian fried prawns…the Roast Duck , the “Monk Jump Over the Wall” …and the Beggar’s Chicken. (Strictly VEGAN).

It is our custom to treat the “Newly Wed” pompously just for the day and the Groom will be bestow with a King’s treatment in accordance to the so called Royal Protocol passed down from generations to honor the GROOM the “King for a day.”

My Wedding Banquet was a JOKE of the decade…..sniff!...sniff!

Puteri Gunung Ledang.




HANG TUAH.


Stephen Rahman Hughes (A British) acted as Hang Tuah in the Musical “Puteri Gunung Ledang”.

He is so HANDSOME.

Bakar the Cobbler.




Bakar the Cobbler

Bakar has been plying his trade at this busy sidewalk of this busy street somewhere in Kuala Lumpur….. he is an unlicensed trader…and he is constantly harassed by the municipal officers in their tour of duties.

….The Enforcement personnel would issue him summon which he dutifully pays and at time they would confiscate his tools of trade and he would have to pay a levy to have it back.

Tell it to Bakar and thousands of them like him….they would laugh it off …..the summonses and the levies are as RENTALS and computed as cost of doing business….they are earning a decent living supporting their families…..most of them (hawkers and roadside traders) are earning more than an Executive or a Manager of an organization and many became Millionaires through maverick FRANCHISING.

Earning a decent living is easy in Asia…..and THEY ARE THE HEROES OF ASIA.

For the first time.






Model: I was just passing through when I saw her….mesmerized by her eyes and I stole the shot off her from a distance with the Zoom mode. The picture wasn’t too clear…I had it edited.

I see eyes as a personification of a smile…it beautifies it.

[Listen to the song if you haven’t….simply BEAUTIFUL]

For the first time – Kenny Loggins

Are those your eyes, is that your smile
I've been lookin' at you forever
But I never saw you before
Are these your hands holdin' mine
Now I wonder how I could of been so blind

For the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seein' who you are
I can't believe how much I see
When you're lookin' back at me
Now I understand why love is...
Love is... for the first time...

Can this be real, can this be true
Am I the person I was this morning
And are you the same you
It's all so strange how can it be
All along this love was right in front of me

For the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seein' who you are
I can't believe how much I see
When you're lookin' back at me
Now I understand why love is...
Love is... for the first time...

Such a long time ago
I had given up on findin' this emotion...
Ever again
But you live with me now
Yes I've found you some how
And I've never been so sure

And for the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seein' who you are
Can't believe how much I see
When you're lookin' back at me
Now I understand why love is...
Love is... for the first time...

The Moon represents my heart.

The Moon represents my heart – Theresa Teng.

You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you…
My affection is real.
My love is real.
The moon represents my heart.

You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you…
My affection does not waver,
My love will not change.
The moon represents my heart.

* Just one soft kiss
is enough to move my heart.
A period of time when our affection was deep,
Has made me miss you until now.

* You ask me how deep my love for you is,
How much I really love you.

* ** Go think about it.
Go and have a look [at the moon],
The moon represents my heart.

Repeat *

Smelly TOFU and Pasar Malam (night market)

Smelly TOFU and Pasar Malam (night market)


After the Dental sojourn many evenings ago…..We drop by at the pasar malam (night market) to have our supper and to get new clothes (myself) for the Chinese New Year.


We had fried noodles…soup noodles….curry noodles…and it was satisfyingly good.


That evening…...I decided to be adventurous …for no apparent reason..I decided to try out the ‘Chow Tofu’..(Smelly Tofu) a la carte…….it has been bordering me for years….. The aroma stench like sewage…and true to its slogan “AROMA ACROSS A THOUSAND MILES”.


The queue was long….we waited for our turn….bought 4 pieces for each one of us

…..Sam went first…shook her head in delight…then it was my turn…I have already turned green from the regurgitation…there was no way out….BRAVED myself…closed my eyes…SAM fed a piece to my mouth…..I chewed the crunchy texture..and ..BY GOSH…it was the best TOFU I have ever tasted.

Then it was my children’s turn…..they then wanted more..but the queue was too long………..decided to come back for more another time.


Believe me you….it is worth a try…even if it is for the NOVELTY of having the guts to have tasted the smelliest dish…… the infamous “SMELLY TOFU”……just don’t burp!..


If need to…..wind down the car window.
