Well…not really…but I did wear these out to two festivals this year. Both times I thought were gonna rain, but didn’t. I had tested them before walking to work in the pouring rain, and my feet were 100% dry. So I was really looking forward to giving em a go in some mud…
Either way, other than the fact that these are some of the best looking NIKE ACG’s to come out in awhile, they are also super comfy and best of all – weatherproof!
NIKE ACG MERRIWEATHER
I saw this the other day and Im not quite sure what it means. I liked it not only cos it has my name on it, but I love being a homebody as well. I guess thats what it means…or could mean?
A lot of my mates always question my wanting to be home all the time. Hey I pay rent and spend money and time making home as comfortable for me as possible….why would I want to be anywhere else???!!!
Another new mix. This is a recording of the first couple of hours of my Thursday dinner set from Colonel Tan’s @ Revolver Upstairs.
It was the week before The Rainbow Serpent Festival - so the first hour especially is a little ambient and chilled because I had been preparing for my ‘Chill Stage’ set at the festival. It gets a little more ‘friendly’ towards the end…probably because the restaurant was filling up by then.
I also used this as a demo for some quirky event the Melbourne Museum was gonna do. Unfortunately they couldn’t afford me in the end … 
Anyways, I hope you enjoy it. Great for a mellow morning/recovery or if you just wanna chill the fuck out!
My fellow Malaysian JOSIAH NG, is one of the fastest guys on a track bike in Asia if not the world. Based in Melbourne to train with the rest of the Malaysian National track cycling team, Josiah has just returned from the ASIAN 2012 TRACK CYCLING CHAMPIONSHIPS a winner in the Keirin division. Check out the YouTube below of his performance…MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!
FUN FACT :- The coach of the Malaysian track team is a guy called John Beasley. So happens John is my wife Sooz’s mum’s cousin – which makes him her uncle. Therefore Im indirectly related to the coach of the Malaysian team!
They released this trailer during the Super Bowl ad breaks. Looks so so awesome!
Did someone say they have a ‘HULK’…???!!! FUCK YEAH!
I guess I should pay my respects. So sad to see another artist pass. She was one of the key singers that influenced my early days of music. There so many songs that I grew up with and that I know word for word. To me she was a true diva.
But over the last few years we have all heard of all the horror stories she has had and was probably still having till the day she died. I can’t help thinking sometimes maybe it was just a matter of time.
Whatever it is, I thank you for the music and the emotions…
I never knew Mordor was THAT big! I knew there was lots shit going on in there…but when you put it to scale, reality kinda hits you in the head. That Dubai tower looks like my apartment in comparison. You can click on the image for a bigger picture…
Vin Diesel. The lead role in movies such as The Fast & The Furious franchise, xXx, Pitch Black and a whole lot more, was also a budding breakdancer back in the day. I bet you didn’t know that. I know I didn’t. He also kinda looks like a mate mine Stily and my old boss Anthony. Uncanny.
Thanks to Stevie D. at work for the link.
Hainanese Chicken Rice is a staple food for anyone hailing from Malaysia and/or Singapore. I’ve discovered a few good places in Melbourne over the years who do good chicken rice, but I keep going back to the one place all the time.
Its called Oriental Wok and is located smack in the middle of the city. This is a no frills place where the dining experience is pretty much non-existent. I seem to get along with the grumpy old chinese lady behind the counter, although most will find her short and rude. The place is normally messy and used dishes are strewn all over the place because its pretty much just the old lady and her husband running the show.
There are other things to order at this place, but everyone only orders the Hainanese Chicken rice. For me it is the closest to the authentic ones they serve back home. You can ask for extra rice or extra chicken, and the soup has so much MSG in it, you’ll end up with a dry mouth after the meal but strangely wanting more…!!!
So do yourself a favour if you’re a fan of this dish and try it here. Don’t expect any decent service and I wouldn’t bring my first date here, but I can promise you’ll be more than satisfied with the chicken rice.

Spiderman would have to be the most loved Marvel Superhero out there I reckon. So its only fitting that they come out with a new series, based on the original comic by Stan Lee. You know the story by now but this looks like its been told a little differently.
Either way, can’t wait! Looks promising.
