bovine snatcher 1 : cepat la masukkan die dalam keta...

bovine snatcher 2: aku tanak duduk belakang..

bovine snatcher 3: apsal aku pulak kena duduk belakang.. weh cepat aa suruh die masuk keta.. die dok buat muka blur je..

bovine snatcher 2: itu la aku dah suruh sewa lori taknak.. nak gak pakai keta buruk ko nih..

bovine: mooooooooo!!!

bovine snatcher 1: weh senyaple.. org kampung perasan karang.. rilek2.. buat cool je..

well after this , proton can pride itself in being able to actually fit a cow into the backseat of a proton wira.. seriously..

haha, well this is what actually happened in a village in Kulim, Kedah..
a band of bovine snatchers, managed to actually load a full grown cow into the back seat of a proton wira.. it was unspecified how many thieves was there.. but if it was more than 3.. i pity the one who got to sit in the back seat.. especially if he got the rear end seat.. (think hard what this means)
as they were making their getaway.. villagers noticed what was happening and gave chase..
what happened after that was, the driver crashed into a tree and they made their escape probably on foot.. leaving the cow alone..

bovine : mooooooo!!! weh ape ko tinggal aku sorg2 je... aku tanak kena sembelih...

The Curse of the Joker...

Rest in peace Joker..

in memoriam.. MX7242

well.. MX7242 .. the silver ferrari ( i and my friends call any saga car a ferrari.. mind you)
this would be the first car that i drove after getting my driving licence..
my family got the car for my sister when she went to university.. and that was around 1991..
then when my brother went to uni, he inherited the car and finally it came full circle and i was entrusted with it hmm around the end of 2003 when i started semester 1 in IMU

a lot of memories..
happy ones...
driving up genting sempah towards janda baik.. that was my farthest trip using the Saga..
pegi Carrefour dgn K.dijadellpahmiha..

weird ones.. water always getting into the boot space.. the only accident i had was with the silver ferrari la.. and it was very early on after i got my licence.. and to think of all places to get an accident.. inside my own house.. i minimally banged into one of the walls in my house when i was bringing the car out.. at the time.. my depth perception sucked to the max...
menumpangkan Dr. Thani..
the door handles snapping off, mengikut giliran masing2.. there was one time where the driver side door handle snapped off.. so basically had to open the back door first to open the front door..
central locking was a problem..
windows.. hmm this has been a perennial problem with any proton car.. there was once i had to travel in the rain with the car window open..
also i made a record of managing to fit in 8 passengers into the car once..
all the small sized people from K.dejamehadellpah punya rumah..

bad ones..

especially driving around shah alam with PARASITES in the car.. DIDiLydiAnIna
and towards the end the car was quite fond in developing a few problems of its own..
i still remember the car breaking down in Sunway LDP toll.. and also another time when i came back from street soccer MAPCU in UM.. broke down due to the fact that the water pump was leaky and due to overheating. i think something melted.. the gasket maybe..
also at one point the front axle kept having problems..
the passenger side window smashed during Friday prayers in Seri Petaling as the mangkuks who did it saw a laptop bag on the passenger seat.. for sure they were disappointed when they found rahman punya sweaty clothes that he kept in the laptop beg.. with the laptop safely at home..

as the car kept on developing problems in the end.. and the fact that i needed to travel to and fro seremban when i entered seremban.. basically the car was given away to a family friend and i inherited the Satria WEW 5641 from my brother

regardless of all the problems..
i feel the handling of this car is better than any car that i've driven up to now..
the way it takes corners.. muahahah and also that it had a 1.5l auto engine.. sakit sikit la when refuelling..
it was the first car that i had.. and it is greatly missed ( corny gile) hahaha

the silver ferrari is well and safe in Perak now..
and also is having a mid-life crisis and an identity crisis..
haha



anyway proton has come up with the replacement model for the old proton saga...
wanna see a peek? click this then..
it's gonna be released on the 18th of January

the unwritten rules of football... not the wimpy american football...

Before kick-off

— Any player being filmed leaving a team bus must ensure that he is wearing headphones and carrying a small Louis Vuitton wash bag.

— Players who once represented the same club must stop and chat animatedly to each other in the tunnel as they wait to come out, even if they never really spoke to each other when they played together.

— On the day of a cup final, players must walk on to the pitch in their club suit approximately 1½ hours before kick-off and touch the turf to make sure it is just like all the other grass they play on every week. At least one player must pick some and throw it in the air to gauge the wind direction even though it is May, very still, and, therefore, very unlikely to affect anything.

Scoring

— If a player mishits a good chance, he must look down and carefully examine the pitch, maybe even treading back in some turf, so that everyone knows he got a bad bounce. If it is a televised game, he should continually blow mucus out of his nose as the camera tracks him back to his own half.

— When a player makes a great assist only to see a teammate tap the ball in, he must stand well away from the celebrating players and wait for them to come over and individually congratulate him.

Corners and throw-ins

— All throw-ins must be taken at least ten yards farther up the pitch than where the ball went out. The referee is allowed to tell the player off, but only when he has exceeded ten yards.

— All corner takers must push the corner flag to one side, regardless of whether it gets in the way. They must also raise a hand before taking the kick, irrelevant of where they intend to send the ball.

Free kicks

— Two or more players should always dispute who will take a free kick, even though they have spent an entire week on the training ground working out who will take them.

— When a player has conceded a free kick, he must pick up the ball and run several yards before dropping it behind him without looking. When a free kick is awarded and the referee places the ball in the required spot, it is essential to pick it up and place it down again at least six inches further forward, ideally with a backspin motion.

Offside

— When a player is judged offside and still shoots but doesn’t score, he must pretend he knew it was offside all along and didn’t really try to score at all. On the other hand, if he does score, he must act “outraged” and “robbed”.

— Any striker who is more than five yards offside must still either wag a finger or launch a tirade of expletives at the flag-bearing official.

Substitutions and injuries

— A player leaving the pitch on a stretcher must always be applauded, while players with equally serious injuries who are helped off by the physio must be booed.

— When water bottles are thrown on to the pitch while a teammate is receiving treatment, players must always squirt some out on to the grass before taking a sip.

— Players warming up along the touchline must always put their hands behind their backs and kick their heels up to touch them, even though they never do this in training or at any other time.

Goalkeepers

— Before kick-off, goalkeepers should always hang from the crossbar to check it does not have any cracks in it.

— Keepers must use the special adhesive power of saliva by spitting into their gloves as much as possible during games. They should also kick the soles of their boots against the post at least three times in each half.

— Goalkeepers should sprint into the opposition penalty box for injury-time corners, even if they have never connected with a header in their life.

Managers

— Any manager facing lower-league opposition in a cup game must describe the team he is facing as “well organised”.

— Assistant managers must be equipped with a blank piece of paper on which they can pretend to show substitutes the opposition’s tactical formation. In addition, assistants should shout and gesticulate in exactly the same way as the manager, only two seconds later.

Officials

— The referee must only blow for full time when the ball is in mid-air after a long goal kick.

— The fourth official must always check a substitute’s studs before he comes on, even though none of the studs of the players on the pitch were checked. It should be noted that no substitute in the history of football has ever been caught wearing “inappropriate studs” and no substitute has ever been refused access to the field of play because of a “stud check”.

— Fourth officials should always be of a smiling disposition when trying to calm infuriated managers back into the dugout.

brave? or stupid? or inappropriate?
