Wild at Heart

First I was dying to finish my high school and start college.

Then I was dying to finish college and start working.

Then I was dying to marry, shift to my own home and have kids.

Then I was dying for my kids to grow up fast, so they could earn their own money.

While working my butt off, I was dying to retire, so I could do what i really want to do.

And soon I’ll be dying, and suddenly I realised that I forgot to live.

Don’t live as if you are never going to die and when you die, will you be rememebered as someone who truly made a positive influence and lived a good life?

Hakuna Mattata and remember - how you do anything, is how you do everything.

Fancy getting a Rolls Royce for just RM13,000, a Jaguar XJ6 for RM1,000 or a 1998 Proton Wira for just RM 500?

The Royal Malaysian Customs Dept is having a vehicle auction closing date August 11, 2008 and you can view the details at www.customskl.gov.my/evl To view the list and the photos of the vehicles, click on Tender Baru - left menu bar.

Happy bidding.

To truly enjoy food as in good sex, you have to use all your 5 senses. So let me share with you my thoughts.

Sight - Does it look appetising and interesting enough to eat?

Smell - Does it smell nice delicious?

Sound - The taste and appetite depends on the sounds you hear during the preparation and while eating. Baby cries and rock music will not help. That’s why most people enjoy a sizzling dish.

Touch - some cultures eat using their fingers as the taste is enhanced by feeling the food before you eat it. You cannot enjoy durians with a fork and spoon.

Taste - the ultimate enjoyment is when you can explode all your taste buds with sweetness, sourness, bitterness and saltiness.

Some say that those who enjoy good sex, are generally thinner, as they burn off extra calories, have less time for eating solid food and have fulfilled their 5 senses. And those that don’t get enough of it, will usually substitute it with food.

So whatever you choose, just enjoy using your 5 senses. Happy eating! 

Some people were quite surprised when I said i had just bought a bicycle. No, it’s not one with the shopping basket or to go packing food with. Sorry to disappoint.

The kids (oops now teens), have outgrown their little bicycle and it was time to get an adult 5 speed racing bike with chunky tyres that look like they were from a 4 wheel drive monster truck.

So maybe I can get some exercise with the bike?. Let’s see. If you see a bright green bike speeding by, just give me way, or a pack of teh tarik could be splashing on your windscreen, ok?.

Spend 4 hours for a complete installation, put a 5 litre water tank in your booth, some electical gadgets in your engine compartment to do some electrolysis to extract the hydrogen from water, pump this hydrogen into your air intake, pay RM1,300 for a carburettor engine or RM2,300 for a fuel injection engine (ohhh you get a free Smart Fuel Saver device) below 2,000cc and get 50% more mileage from your litre of petrol/diesel.

Don’t be mistaken with hydrogen powered cars Japan, Germany and USA are moving towards. This is hydrofuel - meaning using hydro (water) as fuel.

Don’t get too excited too fast. The system is not approved by Pusapakom and the JPJ yet, tentatively Sept 2008 only. It’s only on trial with 100 taxis.

But according to this Dr Halim,  he is ready to install 300,000 units from August onwards.

Malaysia Boleh - yes it’s true our cars will not run on water, but with this HFI system, will use water to extend mileage by 50% thus cutting your fuel bill by half.

What distance 5 litres of water will last you, is not known at the moment. There may be an upgrade option to install a swimming pool in your booth, so you can drive non stop from kl to pj.

Or maybe an optional water disposal device from the driver and passenger seat, to send your waste water directly into this water tank. Wow. That’s recycling at it’s best!.

Remember the slogan -  " Put a tiger in our tank " . Now its "Wee Wee urine takes you 50% further"

It’s not that I spend so much on petrol, just about RM330 monthly, so some friends ask me why I wanted to install an NGV / CNG system for my car. The investment will pay for itself within 17 months at the present petrol/gas price differential.

In Malaysia, it’s called Natural Gas for Vehicles (NGV) and elsewhere it’s referred to as Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)

It’s about greening the earth and reducing the carbon emissions and setting an example for my future generations. What have you done?.

I finally decided today to go install at CityNGV in Setapak for 4 reasons - 1. I met Jessie the owner’s wife and she explained clearly to me the different options. 2. CityNGV pricing at RM4,200 was cheapest among the other 2 installers 3. They offered Credit Card payments at the same pricing as cash and also offered 0% Easy Payment Plans. 4. CityNGV is about 2km from my home, so it’s easy for servicing.

I first confirmed the best TA mixer from Argentina & a 77L semi fibre tank for RM4,750, but after measurements, found the tank took up the whole boot space and covered the spare tyre.

So I changed to a 55L semi fibre tank, which could fit directly to the back of the boot, just behind the rear seats,  leaving me lots of space. I paid a RM300 cash deposit, and my scheduled installation date is August 12.

Meantime, my nearest Petronas station in Melawati, about 2km from my home will start selling NGV from this friday, so I guess the universe is making it easy for me.

Will update you more with some photos after the installation.
