Here's to a dear friend who's tying the knot this month.

(I know it'd be a total cliche, but..)

"Congratulations!"

I'm amazed by this kid sheer dumb stupidity. Or maybe he's just drunk. I don't know.

But it's worth watching.

Basketball. Great sport. Uncanny stamina. Quick fast break.

Here's to the guy who keeps it going. My man. Fendi.

Godspeed bro.

You're a part time lover and a full time friend
The monkey on you're back is the latest trend
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

Here is the church and here is the steeple
We sure are cute for two ugly people
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

We both have shiny happy fits of rage
I want more fans, you want more stage
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

You are always trying to keep it real
I'm in love with how you feel
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of a train
I kiss you all starry eyed, my body's swinging from side to side
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

The pebbles forgive me, the trees forgive me
So why can't, you forgive me?
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

It's the beginning of the year and it's time for Macworld 2008, which going to start off next week.

This annual convention will not only showcase the latest technologies revolving Apple but also provides a platform for developers, geeks, and customers to discuss, assimilate, and exchange ideas.

Why is this important, you might ask.

First, I believe in community upbringing. It completes the innovation cycle. It's a driving force. It's a purpose. It matters. Afterall, collecting data is the first step toward wisdom, but sharing data is the first step toward community.

So why is community so important, you might ask.

In any platforms, to truly develop seamless technology or innovation, the product must be tested. I'm not talking about open source or other bull-crap, but the testing which is the most critical stage of development, involves developers. Independent developers. It's like writing a book, and giving it to other writers to proofread. In other words, developers and customers provide 360 degree feedback.

I don't know where I'm going here. This is getting incoherent. But the point stays, community is important, goddammit!

So this is how it begins. The journey to Kronsunka Island took about 2 hours boatride. Once we got there, the boat transformed into a red firefly and quickly disappeared into the vast ocean. We were then greeted by a creature called Grotuvuskoo and he introduced himself as Don. He was amiably friendly and with great care, showed us around. After about an hour, the sky turned sour. The Gaya wind was blowing for like 100 knots. We had to stop. Cumulus updraft formed only too quickly, before we could find a hideout, the rain poured.

But we were not scared. Because this is all was only a dream.

This is Family Time.
Precious,
Unconditional,
Timeless,
Family,

& nothing else.
