MYTH CONFIRMED....Mentos + Coca Cola

Few weeks ago i got this e-mail a few times showing pictures of a bunch of brazilian kids doing a demonstartion with a bottle of 1.5L Coke and a Mentos....it seems that a concoction of mentos and Coke will coz a reaction that makes the cook shoot sky high...the e-mail even claims that 2 brazilian kid died after eating mentos and drinking coke together.....since the ingredients are easily available...i decided to play mythbuster today......

It seems that mentos and coke really does not mix will...myth confirmed!!!

Kuala Lumpur Air Carnival '06 - The biggest rip off ever

Over the past week Mix FM had been talking about this Air Carnival going on in the former Subang Airport. In addition to that, i read in the paper that our DPM officiated the event on Friday and it was reportedly a kick ass event. Being the aviation fanboy that i am, i felt obliged to pay this place a visit
i forced myself up for at 8.00am even after Liverpool vs Man City until 1am and drove all the way from Sg Long to Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (y they can't stick to the name Subang Airport) ....and boy, was i in for a bloody surprise :sweat:

I reached there, walked into Terminal 3 and was greated with various booths promoting Flying Clubs, Aeromodelling Busineses, Flying schools, TUDM recruitment booth etc etc etc...all still well and dandy...then i saw this information counter selling tix for RM10 a pop to the so called real deal where the aircrafts are...fine..i paid up and made my way to the air field......and wat the fark...


The only piece of military hardware on display was a Frenchie chopper (i don't even care to remember the name) born in 1963...double wat the fark

At least i got to see a Eurocopter in action...this is the most modern piece of hardware there...






Malaysia's Finest is not to be outdone by our Air Force who brought they 1963 old fart for show....they brought a piece off beat up, rusty, barely air worthy piece off flying machine too....

Later i did saw a demonstration of paragliding.....but for RM 10 for admission is just a blatant rip off...hack, there is less then 20 planes on display and they call it a farkin air carnival....and our DPM was singing his praises for the organizers...obviously he never heard of Farnsborough....

This is a bladi disgrace for Malaysian Aviation....

I Got Myself a PSP!!!

For those who knew me long enuff probably know's that i was quite a gamer back in my uni days...gowever, since my working life began...i had done very little gaming...firstly is that not much time for that and my gaming rig is back home in Segamat...

I really did miss my gaming quite a lot and that's y i got myself a Playstation Portable lately....since it is portable, i can with out the console and play games whenever i am free....for those who are uninitiated....the PSP is more then just a console...it can also play music, videos and even browse the net through wifi (guess it can do anything besides wash dishes :p)
