Floating shit is good shit

Thursday, 15 May 2008 10:35 madman Health Notes

What did you eat today? Phrase of the day: Floating shit is good shit, sinking shit is deep shit!
Pardon my languague, haha (its intentional)!
Ever paid attention to your daily poo? Check out this quote that I've heard from friends:

If your shit floats, it means you are eating healthy. If it sinks, let's just say that you need to ear better.
Lao sai aside, of course.

I'm trying to find an explanation on this, but online searches lead me to different (unreliable) explainations. What I heard from my friend is that: If you take enough fiber, your shit will float, and it is a reliable general eating habit indicator. And fiber naturally links us to more veggies and fruits.

I've personally tried this out and find it to be true. If I take more veggie (less meat and carb), my shit will start to float on the 2nd day poo~ Haha!

So, the next morning when you visit the toilet for your regular business, look down and check!

《震動人心》 A Song for earthquake victims from Malaysia

Thursday, 29 May 2008 10:38 madman Production

震動人心 988 Unity Song recording 988 started a song project for the 512 earthquake victims. It was participated by lots of Malaysian Chinese industry artists. 988 is using the song to ask for donation in return for some "commercial airtime", which I think is quite a brilliant idea. They will read out the name of the sponsors everytime the song is aired. 100% of money collected from this project will be sent to help the earthquake victims in Si Chuan, China.

The production was completed within a week, and everybody (from artists, TV personalities, video production crew, 988 crew etc) contributed wholehearted in the name of charity, which is really touching and inspiring.

On a personal and technical level, I'm involved in recording/editing and mixing of the song. Which is by far, the biggest project I've participated (in terms of number of people involved in the song). Am really glad/proud that I get to contribute in such a noble project.

The song 《震動人心》 can already be heard on 988. You can check out the youtube MV below as well.

They're forcing users to buy crappy VISTA

Tuesday, 01 July 2008 10:00 madman Software

So what's new in the tech market, you asked?

NewsPick: Microsoft to stop selling Windows XP on Monday

Microsoft Windows XP Microsoft is forcing people to move on to their ever crappier VISTA operating system, by ending all sales of Windows XP by 1st July 2008.

VISTA is the obvious "collaboration" between the OS maker and computer hardware makers to tell you: Hey there, juicy customers! It's time to UPGRADE your whole PC! Muaahaahahahaha...

Heck, Vista eats-up about ~900MB of RAM at initial startup! That's 1GB of RAM down the drain (of course, you could tweak the OS to reduce this load). Obviously, I'm not the only one complaining about this. Do a search on Google and you will find loads of blog entries like this: Windows Fans: It's Your Last Chance To Avoid Vista

Can I at least pray that Apple is gonna slash the price of a MacBook Pro like they did on iPhone 3G?
