RIP MJ

Michael Jackson via last.fm

never a fan of his, but my favorite song from MJ ... "Man in the mirror"

I'm Starting With The Man In The Mirror
I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways
And No Message Could Have Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World A Better Place

Take A Look At Yourself, And Then Make A Change

RIP, you are still a wacko. :p

better to be agreeable...

...than right,

Was watching CSI 'The Descent of Man'. Greg Germann played a comical monk, George, quoted from his religion. From CSI ep. guide
---
And when the naive George asserts that it's "better to be agreeable than right," Brass counters, "that's not religion, that's marriage."

OpenSolaris June Meeting

I did a short intro on the OpenSolaris 2009.06 updates. Had a hard time giving this talk when it was release just 24hrs ago. Wey-Gie talked on OpenSolarisHA cluster.



Had dinner and beer at brewerks with a guest from Texas.

Men who take too much pictures

On the way back to office, we happened to discuss the characteristics of "alpha-male". We deduce an alpha-male is someone who carrys handbag, well groom and take pictures of every food he eat...

and I blurt, "...a zeta-male is one who take a pic of their own crap every morning!"

everyone agrees...

well, 3 of us wear omegas and I dont have the heart to tell them the last char should be omega. :S
