That is probably why, whether you write about fleeing Sudan by the skin of your teeth or sharing the tribulations of a border-hopping Indonesian masseuse or savouring a ticker-warming outing with the fam, it's such a sweeping experience reading you. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for this rich and entertaining ride.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23406611.post-81336087708154386842007-06-29T22:13:00.000-05:002007-06-29T22:13:00.000-05:00I was a student in India long before George Harris...I was a student in India long before George Harrison came a-calling.

First, thanks y'all for dropping by. Now for the "hit list":<BR/><BR/>Encik anonimos and Encik Kapitan Linggi: the former - thanks for the widget tip thingy - might try that. The latter - and also for the former 'nymos - didn't know the Liverpool Press series had such an "impact" on us who born the Sixties. <BR/><BR/>Dok TA: Jelesnya.. didn't know you already have the '05 "Home" album ngan Peter Erskine et.al. Sini Bpn tarak. I'm still hunting. I will get you the Trisum CD Insya'Allah. You WILL be blown away!<BR/><BR/>My review better than Nantha's eh? Kecik hati member tu... hehee..<BR/><BR/>Shar.. I think you're totally smitten by comments left by "honeybunch/sweetpots".. or is it "honeypots"? *Sigh* when will she see fit to come-a-callin'?<BR/><BR/><BR/>A Voice - honestly, I didn't know abt it until my crony Petron Ass client wanted to give me his freebie ticket (coincided with the Asian O & G conference). But I was willing to pay for it. That's why I took them to NPC post-orgasm to contra the favor.<BR/><BR/>Hey man.. best nya if can relive those days. Right now I'm listening to a lot of Thin Lizzy. The late Phil Lynott was genius too..<BR/><BR/>My set list on my 8 GB Ipod if you were to go thru' pening kepala. Everthing fm Led Zep, Flyod, Benyamin S, Ebiet, Kla Projek semua pon ada.

Hope the rcent "storm" didn't affect you personally.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Ewoon! You were there too? If I knew we could've gone to NPC together..<BR/><BR/>Sure or not? Aboout the "orgas'd" bit..<BR/><BR/><BR/>Unker Zorro!<BR/><BR/>Hmm.. Ravel Bolero's final blast. Duuno unker.

I believe porn or smutty materials is a part and parcel of growing up and untill a certain stage, one would abandon it or throw it away like a pair shoes when a teenager's feets outgrow it. Those books were swapped and circulated around in our class of 77/78 and we now have lawyers, accountants, enggineers and other respectable and productive citizens.
