Start Writing Guys

Hi everyone. The latest, as Nyanam duly informed everyone, Aunty Rose is back home. Thank God for keeping her healthy. Went to see Edwin mama, on Sunday at HKL, with amma and daddy. He is at the Urology Ward -- 2nd Fl, ward 1B. He was OK when we went. We were able to talk to him. But Rita attha told us that his condition fluctuates. Lets pray for his speedy recovery.

Anyway about this blog, hey come on guys. I feel this is a great way for us all to connect. It just does not matter what you write or how you write it...just blog, people. Now we got Mr Kennath all mad (that's what happens as age catches-up and you become cranky). I know it's your freedom either to blog or otherwise but it would be nice to know whats happening in the lives of people close to us. It is not like we cousins call each other every now and then. So, here is an avenue for us to keep others posted as to whats happening in their respective lives.

As for the do at Puchong, I think it has to be postponed until June at least. Too many things going haywire. Firstly the Penanti by-election, I have to be on duty. Second is the Perak fiasco. Thirdly, I am being transferred to Putrajaya as the bureau chief. I don't have any Saturday/Sunday off. Starting to feel that I am getting a bit old for this job. A major promotion in Bernama. especially when you have the "anak lelaki" in your full name, is not going to happen. Those with "Bin and Binti", no matter how dumb they are, will get the job. So, am really considering getting out of this political reporting thingy by end of the year. GET ME A JOB PEOPLE. Hope things work out.

God Bless everyone and a Big Thank You.


NOTE: THE COLOUR SCHEME IS JUST TO WAKE YOU GUYS UP!!

Well as we all know that my mum (Rosline Felumina Pillai) came back home last tuesday. Apparently she was admitted again on saturday as the pain started to increase and at the same time was not able to pass gas and go to the toilet. The doctor has put a tube through her nose to clear her stomach as to clear the wind and other substances which will take 3 days.She is getting better. If she can pass gas and go to the toilet within 3 days then she can come back home, if not the doctor will do an x-ray and to consider a 2nd operation.Lets pray for her speedy recovery as she need not go for a 2nd operation.

Here is a question (riddle) that the younger generation may help solve.
If you look at the attachments and photos Retna has displayed on this blog you will see a document named "Certificate of Service" for A Anthonysany and the date reads 10-9-2604.
Can anyone shed some light on the actual date or how it should be read.

TheFireWithin said...

Hey mama, that is not fair for the younger generation. Don't be a cheat. The font in the blog is soo small that nobody can read whats in front of the date. For the information of all, espcially the younger generation is says DATE OF LEAVING. Am now scared for my grandchildren. They have to leave the country by 2064 la!!!!

Ken said...

Dear Dear Retna
How did you get the date 2064
The Date on the Certificate reads 10-9-2604.
OR!! Secretly you may be the proponent and formulator of the RAHMAN principle and now foretelling the Mass Exodus date.
I have, sadly to give great credence to your comments.
After all, you hail from the foremost news network of the nation (enough said!!! yak! yak! he!he!he!)

Ken said...

Yes you must be aware of the second painful operation Rosline had to endure
She is a tough bird and will endure and overcome this and more
A positive sincere prayer, even a moment of positive thought for her will be good.

While on the subject of communication; please help keep the talkline (our blogsite) well visited and notes posted.

Well here is something that i would like to share.Uncle Ken do u remember the warehouse that i was setting up for Arab-Malaysian.I did meet u there once when u were at Kamdars warehouse ,it was in 1995.
The name of the road was Jalan Keronyong .The warehouses were at the end of an old chinese graveyard .The tombstones were dated back to the year 1800.
Well as i was setting up the warehouse ,we would start work at 9.00 am and end the day at 5.30pm .I had 5 store hands with me ,and there was a team of 8 people from DKSH to do the racking.
The warehouse was "L" shaped and had 5 huge metal doors .Din my store hand would always tell me that this place is full of spirit.
It was one of those days when every thing that could go wrong did go wrong.We had problems with the barcodes and computer,the test run did not go well,and the racking team had a guy fall from the top, the high power lights fell and the new racks that came in we short.By the time we called it a day it was 6.30pm.The DKSH team left. and as i would do daily lock the warehouse. My team was outside and Din was offing the lights,and i was at the front center of the warehouse when i saw a person setting on the racks at the end of the waerhouse.it was dark. I called the person but no reply,i got mad, with the bad day and this person not replying made me more mad.As i was walking towards the person i called Din to on the lights back and come with me.When Din saw the person the first thing he said was'Bang itu bukan orang'but i did not hear that .The warehouse lights take time to be bright,it was dim when i came face to face with a lady(Din was next to me).She got up ,and gave me a hard look.She was wearing a gery and white dress with dry red spots.Her skin was white as snow ,her hair black, dark black ,but her eyes were red,dark red .I and Din were face to face with her for 5 seconds and with out turning she just went thru the solid metal door that was locked.We looked at each other and did a dash to the front door so fast that we forgot to off the lights.Well this was the start of more things that we came face to face. Got end here but ,i will tell u what other spirits that i came across.

Ken said...

Leslie, This is no joke and I believe totally. You should know that the Malays in particular have the "gift" to sense spirits and this is so true. There have been too many instances of mass hysteria (screamings) among girls, especially Malays who worked near the Warehouse. But also ask your mother, she has (had) the ablity to see spirits and it was more stronger after she got married. Let her tell you of her expirences. The ablity to see spirits is not good or bad. It is just a gift. BUT when we are sick or weak and the spirit comes across or near us it is bad as it indicated we are so weak that we are in the borderline of the spirit world and the human world. Your father gave me this expirence when he was lying on his deathbed in Assunta Hospital and held my hand and told me he could see the Blach Van flying to collect him and asked me tp make it go away. and he will really sweat. Such was his expirence.
The spirit world is real and not one of us should be stupid enough to deny this. We do not have to look far. The gurdian Angel guarding you is a spirit and you may never know how it protects you from the human and spirit world.
I will relate you an incident of my own expirence of my Guardian Angel protection but that; when I see you face to face as the incident is too long to relate in the short space here. Most of us have expirences like this but we try to ignore it or are not too keen to relate this as it may not be their cup of tea

Aiyoo, the older evil sharing his experiances with the younger evil! Now that's the scary bit. Passing on wealth of experiance that had been bottled-up in that 6-foot figure of his.
hehehehehehe Mr Kennath, I am not denying that the spirit world exists. It is said to be in a different dimension parallel to ours. When someone passes on, he or she would go on to this dimension which is not visible to our eyes. It is also proven, that some of us have this gift where we could see or even communicate with these spirits, which had passed on. Wish I could do that. Would love to seek out Alexender Graham Bell and show him a handphone! He would die again, I guess, especially if it had 3G and all.
Anyway, the same is said for celestial travel. There is a school of thought, which believes that travelling to space, i.e the planets, are a complete waste of time because you are not going to see anything physical when you reach a certain planet. This they say, is because these planets oparate in different dimensions and therefore normal people become "blind".
These people also feel that the only way you would be able to "see" things is through mind-travel i.e meditation etc. This is only achievable if the mind was trained etc. This training thing takes time and all.
Anyway as for me, I have enough devils in the family...why look elsewhere!

Ken said...

I have had a first read and the little boy has bought some rope and hung himself. Anyway I am on the run and will do justice soon possible tomorrow to do a proper reply. Till then count your stars. PS. E=MC2 Understand this!!!!

Ken said...

celestial travel! Now there is something.
Now coming back! I am not interested in your mumbo jumbo drivel!
But since you raised the issue of space travel; until some theorist can provide an alternative concept to E=Mc2; understand this:)
The greater brains of the world believe and understand and have provided working models of time and light being able be bent, compressed and one can jump onto different planes of time provided we are travelling at the required speed.
It was the old sanskrist sages who were the proponents that space was ever expanding and will continue to do so,(and how true they were) this means the galaxies and the stars are all the time moving away from each other unless gravity wins. But they proved it by mathametical models that the western world did not understand then. Now the west believe the world is round when all the while they professed that the world was flat. I can go on but I am hoping you have the grey matter to hold the thread of reckoning.
So, the moral of this write is don't jump to conclusions when the subject is nebelus to begin with.

Ken said...

Francis, remind sometime to tell you of the time 3 guys took a TOYOL to Genting casino to help them win. The story was narrated to me by one of the guys who was in this group.
Than there is the young boy who had a spirit travel up the stream of urine as he urinated along the Taiping bridge.

Ken said...

Since there are few takers to contribute to this blog; we are highjaking this blog to tell karimasa and ghost stories. I hope Raja and Francis can add to this story telling too. But of course we must be prepared for the caustic remarks of Bernama....like it will hurt us......Yuk!

Ken said...

A fine example of a Karimasa story contributed by Mark (Australia)

A little boy walks into his parents' room to see his mom on top of his dad bouncing up and down. The mom sees her son and quickly dismounts, worried about what her son has seen. She dresses quickly and goes to find him..

The son sees his mom and asks, 'What were you and Dad doing?'

The mother replies, 'Well, you know your dad has a big tummy and sometimes I have to get on top of it and help flatten it..'

'You are wasting your time,' said the boy.

'Why is that?' the mom asked puzzled.

'Well when you go shopping the lady next door comes over and gets on her knees and blows it right back up.'

Today is Retna's Birthday
Happy Happy Birthday Retna

PS Message posted early as a reminder for others

Ken said...

Those wanting to contact Victor via his laptop will find it difficult especially since he has a computer operating on a 128bit (if there is one yet) chip (not fair!!).
Now where is the joke in that (sic)

Unknown said...

Belated Birthday greetings Retna. The computer was on leave and hence the late blog. I prayed that your tongue will get sweeter in the years to come...ha..ha..ha. I hope that you will get everything you pray for in life...only thing, pray wisely.
Glad to hear Rosalind is home and we wish her a speedy recovery. Just want to remind you all that Kelvin's wife has had a baby and perhaps we should all realize yet another little Pillay has come into the world. I am planning to see the child soon and hope to get Ken to come along with me. I love babies! Should have had more!!! I will get in with the ghost stories too..but not just yet. C
