Touching yet Foolish...

Check out this 7-year old Korean MTV. Question:
The guy is probably someone like Rossi, MOTO GP Champ, plus a professional photographer (noticed he used Nikon too, hee hee!), can't he afford a pair of eyes?
I mean, its touchy 'n all, but it seems illogical to do that. He could have just bought corneas from someone else, or get it from organ donors, is that all worth it?

Almost-last trip to Saburo

I went to this Jap sushi restaurant with Ernest for the very first time back in 2004. All I remember was the big unagi. Rated as one of the best sushi restaurant in Portland, this place is usually jam packed with people despite its long queue and long wait. Its amazing how people still seem to be thronging to this place despite having to wait for at least 30 mins to 2 hours! The best thing is that its sushis are "besar-besar belaka" (extremely big!) - sashimi, unagi, soft shell crab, you name it!

I guess this is going to be my few last trips to this place before returning to Malaysia..sob sob..Saburo, we are going to miss you!

What IF?

Was driving to work and heard this song on the 104.1 The Fish radio, pretty good, especially the guitar and his uniquely coarse voice. Check out they lyrics below. Guitar tabs here : linky. Scroll down for the video/song.

What If

By Jadon Lavik

Album : Moving On Faith (2004)

What if I climbed that mountain? What if I swam to that shore?
What if every battle was victorious, then would You love me more?
Would You love me more?

What if I were everyone’s first choice? What if I went farther than before?
What if I stood high above the rest, then would You love me more?
Would You love me more?

You say I belong to You apart from the things I do.
You say I belong to You, I’m in awe of why You do,
Why You do, why You do. I’m in awe of You, ooh.

What if I ignored the hand that fed me? What if I forgot to confess?
What if I stumbled down that mountain, then would You love me less?
Lord, would You love me less?

What if I were everyone’s last choice? What if I mixed in with the rest?
What if I failed what I passed before, then would You love me less?
Lord, would You, would You love me less? Oh no, oh no, oh no.

You say I belong to You apart from the things I do.
You say I belong to You I’m in awe of why You do,
You do, You do, You do.

What have I done to deserve your Son sent to die for me?
What can I give? I want to live, give me eyes to see.
In a world that keeps changin’ there’s one thing that I know is true.
Your love is stayin’ there’s nothing else I’ll hold onto.

You say I belong to You apart from the things I do.
You say I belong to You I’m in awe of why You do,
Why You do.

You say I belong to You apart from the things I do.
You say I belong to You I’m in awe of why You do.
I’m in awe of You, I’m in awe of You.

The way You love me, the way You do.
The way You do, the way You love me, You love me, You love me.
The way You do, the way You do, the way You love me.
The way You love, You love, You love.

What do you think?

Sprouting potatoes? Can you eat them?

I once heard from some mom that never eat those sprouting potatoes, apparently, they may cause the newborn to have soft skull, or lose half of the skull? Or something like that... scary. Anyway, I saw this (see pic below) in the potatoes I kept too long in the drawer (paiseh paiseh).



These are called sprouting potatoes, in case you wonder, and yes, you can still eat them, they are safe to use, just be sure you remove the sprouts. However, green potatoes or the green part of a potato should NOT be eaten though - they contain the alkaloid 'solarin' which may have a poisonous effect when consumed in great quantities. Any green areas should be pared off before the potato is used.
