Bachelor Girl

You must have learn of this whole Myanmar Cyclone thing that could amount to a total death toll of more than 50,000. This is insane. I was just right there 3 weeks ago and the beautiful sites of paddy fields and all is now history. Anyone doing any fund raising for them? Any rescue teams need volunteers? If you wish to lend a hand, please visit World Vision.

If you ask me, I have a very weird way of interpreting this whole Nargis cyclone thing. I think it's God's will to halt the entire false move towards democracy and stop the ruling generals to go ahead with the referendum on Saturday. This is THE crunch, the crucial point to force the government to open the country up to foreign aid and assistance which we subsequently hope if this happens, the economy will open up and the general Burmese living standard and conditions can improve.

On a totally separate note...

The Aussie band, Bachelor Girl, has totally disappeared after a few good hits. In particular, this song strikes a chord in me. I must have been in high school when this song was out. Bizarre lyrics like "So I walked under a bus, I got hit by a train" may sound really crazy but hey, don't we all feel darn crashed and burnt whenever we fell out of love and in some circumstances, in and out of love.



Hey Mom
Why didn't you tell me
Why didn't you teach me a thing or two
You just let me go
Out into the World
You never thought to share what you knew

So I walked under a bus
I got hit by a train
Keep falling in love
Which is kinda the same
I've sunk out at sea
Crashed my car, gone insane
And it felt so good
I want to do it again

Hey Mom
Why didn't you warn me
Coz about boys is something i should have known
They`re like chocolate cake
Like cigarettes
I know they're bad for me
But I just can't leave 'em alone

So I walked under a bus
I got hit by a train
Keep falling in love
Which is kinda the same
I've sunk out at sea
Crashed my car, gone insane
And it felt so good
I want to do it again

I wanna do it again
Oh, felt so good

Hey Mom
Since we're talking
What was it like when you were young
Has the world changed
Or is it still the same
A man can kill and still be the sweetest thing.

So I walked under a bus
I got hit by a train
Keep falling in love
Which is kinda the same
I've sunk out at sea
Crashed my car, gone insane
And it felt so good

So I walked under a bus
I got hit by a train
Keep falling in love
Which is kinda the same
I've sunk out at sea
Crashed my car, gone insane
And it felt so good
I want to do it again
I want to do it again

It was just a few months ago, I was told I was wonderful. I haven't changed. Things felt all wrong and went all haywire. I'm so tired. Why don't we have an emergency "Pause" button so we can stop life for a while?


18" on a black Mini, what say you people out there?

My favourite comic stripe and this one in particular, cracks me up. I love the way Sherman and Megan interacts.
