Glad to say it was all just a server problem and my MMR hosted blog is now up and running again *Phew*
So guess I will continue to blog over there.

I am not too sure what happened but I cannot seem to access the dashboard of the MMR server WP blog — hence I am unable to post there. And it was working just fine yesterday *sigh* Thankfully I can access all the old posts and copy them over here. So for now it’s back [...]

Why my son was overjoyed yesterday — Thanks ever so much Jel!
Happy Wiggly Birthday

Our son turns 17 today and I know he’s going to have a Wiggling good time. We printed 2 T-shirts for him, of his favourite Wiggles and Thomas the Tank Engine and got him 2 VCDs (Wiggles and Thomas). Jel managed to find a Wiggles DVD with 2 titles he’s been requesting for a very [...]
Time for an upgrade
Posted in Home on July 13, 2006 | Comments Off
The son’s PC finally died 2 days ago. After chugging along for nearly 6 years now, I guess it was time for an upgrade. We bought his original PC back in Nov 2000 and paid about RM1200 for an AMD Duron 600 MHz CPU, 64MB SDRam and Riva TNT-2 AGP 16MB VGA card setup. (we [...]
Congratulazioni al Azzurri!

Truly a deserving win for them. The Italian defense was fabulous as usual and got through the whole tournament with only 2 goals conceded — one an own goal, and the other a penalty. I could hardly bear to watch the penalty shoot-out and closed my eyes when Del Piero stepped up to take his [...]
Bruised toe

One of the possible side effects of a trip to Giant on a Saturday afternoon, apart from picking up some bug, is injury to your toes due to the “dangerous” shopping carts. I stubbed my toe not once but twice yesterday and here is the result:
Certainly not a pretty sight is it? I was shocked [...]
Italy are through to the Final

Feeling very groggy at the moment but it sure was worth it waking up at 3 am as Italy are through! Stunning late extra-time strikes from Fabio Grosso (119 min) and Alessandro Del Piero (120 min) took Italy into the World Cup final at Germany’s expense with a 2-0 win. I actually fell asleep when [...]
Down to the last 4 (Semi Finals)

It was a weekend of surprises when France, after a very sluggish start to the World Cup, overcame Brazil with a 1-0 victory. (I think a lot of punters would have been unhappy with that result, except those that bet on France!) The other results were kinda expected — Italy getting through with a convincing [...]
