Big Ears & Nazri - Birds Of A Feather

Another early break for me today. I get to leave work at 9.30 pm after working for a "measly" 14 hours. Well for their staff that works late night slogging away to bring money to the company, my company should be a bit loose with their internet access policy.

Basically, all I want to read is Malaysiakini and I can't have my daily dose of alternative media until late at night when I log into net from my home. They could always ban things with key words like "porn", "sex" and so on but why should they ban access to Malaysiakini when I can still access Malaysia-Today or Malaysian-Insider?

Anyway, I noticed nowadays there is no more wholesome fun cartoons like Road Runner. Kids are crazy over disgusting cartoons like Spongebob Square Pants which I felt has a bit of overdose in terms of violence and insanity.

One thing I learn from Road Runner is that the Wolf will never win and all his plans, despite how well it was schemed, will always back fire. Despite testing a few rounds, success is not guaranteed and repetitions doesn't mean the next time it will happen as intended.

The Road Runner theory can very well be applied in real life as well. A very good example is when Big Ears try to make Anwar sounds guilty to the ear of listerners. When asked about Anwar's denial, Big Ears said it is common for the accused person to claim he was innocent. Perhaps, Mr Big Ears have intended it well, it sure sounds hollow and lacking in intelligence. So, imagine if someone walks up to him and ask,"YAB, are you stupid?" I wonder what will be his reply.

Oh well, like they say, you can fool some all the time or even fool all some of the time, but you can't fool all at all times.

Anyway, I noticed another "intelligent" reply given by Nazri in Parliment today. As reported in Malaysiakini today, when Teresa Kok asked him whether the government has any plans to reduce the voting age from 21 to 18, he said there are no such plans as most of them are still at school level. I wonder why can't students at school level be deemed with intelligence to make the right decision when the law recognises a person is an adult at 18, capable of bearing full responsibility for the crime he/she commits?

Anyway, he could have stopped there but he "brilliantly" said this:

“This is different from Western countries where their youths mature earlier as they have access to better education at a younger age,” he said.

We can definitely see the product as he testifies to it.
