I think one of my three wishes might just come true. I was scanning through my BlogRush widget and saw this article with the title, “Blogging Got You Out Of Shape?”. Although I wouldn’t credit my weight gain to blogging alone, it sure did contribute to some of it.
I clicked on the link and hoped for some recipes or suggestions that I can use. Instead, I saw this PC-desktop-treadmill combination “object”. The original article can be found at Engadget.
To type while walking should be okay but I am not sure if it is possible to type while running. The biggest disappointment of this will be the price tag — retail price at $6,500.
Can someone “build” me this PC-desktop-treadmill thing using custom table and a treadmill please? I think it would be cheaper that way.

There are three things that I desperately need right now.
- My Public Bank Debit Card to be approved within one week
- Buy a Nikon D40x at the cheapest price possible
- Lose 5kg or more within the next two weeks
#1 is totally out of my control. My application is being processed and I told them I need it urgently. The customer care staff told me she will inform the credit card department but there is no guarantee.
#2 cannot happen before #1 has completed. Even then, it may take up to a week or two for me to withdraw me money *slowly* and hopefully will not trigger to panic button on PayPal.
#3 is a mission impossible task. Anyone has a special remedy I can use?

I got an SMS spam on my Hotlink number about a week ago. Exactly seven days later, I got another SMS spam again. I hope I don’t get another one seven days later. The SMS was sent from the number 01425376XX. It has the same 0142 prefix.
Hi Jason! u lupa download my hot hot movie clip? Cepat cepat hantar ON HIT ke 369XX sekarang.
I don’t know the rule/law of sending such an SMS. From what I (think I) know, they must include how much each SMS will cost within the SMS itself. Both SMSes that I got did not display this information.
Furthermore, I am not sure if this “pretend to be your friend” trick can be used. At least they got my name wrongly. Can you imagine getting SMSes like the one below in the future?
Yo dude! Why didn’t you turn up for my wedding? Send ON SORRY to 369XX now to apologize.

It has been raining cats and dogs for the past few days. It only pours in the evenings though. Lightning and thunderstorm is there to accompany the downpour. This can only mean one thing.
Monsoon is near, if not already here.
Just a little update on my Streamyx (so called) broadband connection. It has been really bad for the past few days. Google related websites are loading slowly, very slowly. I thought TM Net upgraded their services a while ago? I had quite a fast Streamyx connection back then for a week or two. Now it is worse than before.

There is a saying in Malay that goes, “Jatuh Ditimpa Tangga”. I think it means bad things happen when you are already in a troubled situation.
I can’t help but to feel how true this is. When I started blogging, I was smacked by some things that I wrote. I was already very troubled. I tried asking for advice and help around. As if I was not having enough trouble already, some [noun] started a controversy using my nick.
Yesterday, I got two of my PPP posts rejected due to some things (I believe) are not even written in their TOS. That troubled me a little but as if it wasn’t bad enough, my technology blog got smacked by the Big G. I am a little surprised but I know that I shouldn’t.
There will be some changes and mass edit of some of my posts in the coming days. One thing that is bound to change is the disclosure policy. I suspect some/most bloggers that got smacked by the Big G is due to the way they disclose their sponsored posts. I can’t be sure but something has to be changed.
Some extra “icing” for my situation — I received yet another junk SMS. KNS! That post will come up later. I am extremely tired now. I only slept for like two hours last night.
I haven’t replied to some comments in both my blogs. I am sorry. I will reply them when I wake up later and feel more refreshed. *sigh*
