Long Time No See

-Taken from The Sun newspaper-

Double Trouble

KL: Labradors Lucky & Flo began a one-month trial operation yesterday to sniff out pirated DVDs and CDs in Malaysia, the Motion Picture Association (MPA) said in a statement. The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry invited MPA to bring the Northern-Ireland trained canines after ministry officials saw them in action in Hongkong and Dubai.

During their mission, dubbed Operation Double Trouble, they will work alongside enforcement officers in various parts of the country to help the ministry assess the feasibility of setting up a dog enforcement unit.

They were in action at the Malaysia Airlines cargo loading area at KLIA. They sniffed cardboard boxes and then sat down, wagging their tails when they found something suspicious. Lucky and Flo are trained to detect polycarbonate and other chemicals used in optical discs but cannot tell between legitimate and pirated discs. – AFP

LOL!!!!!!

This is unbelievable... Using trained canines to sniff out PIRATED DISCS?! What are the customs doing? Bum around and be merry? Come on lah

Furthermore, they’re planning to use 2 doggies only for the operations in various parts of the country. That’s exploitation and mistreatment! Poor poor doggies...

I smell trouble already…

P.S. Perhaps Liucas & Goldie can send in their applications ^_^

Part 1 of Moz's Lapuk tag

5 lamest movies i've ever seen:

  • Legend of The Red Curse

One word: SUCK! (BIG TIME). I’m amazed that Bjarne Wong (the director) could come up with another equally atrocious movie called Possessed (famous for the Amber Chia break dance scene). This guy just never learned from his mistakes *sigh*


  • Date movie

I like Alyson Hannigan in the cult-status American Pie movies. She’s likable, blurry cute & witty. But in the Date Movie, she became a major dumb nincompoop that’s beyond hope. Her acting is horrible and the movie is appalling! I didn’t even twitch a muscle throughout the whole show. If she ever tries that again, she will be history.

This photo is taken at Hutan Lipur Sungai Tua which is located on the link road between Selayang and Ulu Yam. I used to go there quite often in my free time, especially during weekends. I like to rest on one of the many huge boulders that sturdily seated along the river and enjoy the calming serenity of the place.


Recently i visited the place again with CJ. The place was packed with people (must be due to School Holiday), but we still managed to spend a peaceful Sunday relaxing, chatting & taking photos there (by the way CJ is a very good photographer... impress).


P.S. I'm going to KK next week for holiday! yippee...It's going to be my first attempt to conquer the majestic Mt Kinabalu. If anyone has any wishes for me to carry up there, do pass them to me OK ^_^ cheers

Welcome back! Only 2 doggies to sniff pirated DVD/CD? Really cham. What about the scanners? Are we getting backwards ah?

Applegal said...

All the best for your climb! :D You can do it!! Remember, raincoat, walking sticks, chocolates, raisins, water bottle, warm clothes, gloves and torchlight with batteries that won't die out on you due to the cold. We want photos ya!

Legolas said...

But I thought they can't tell whether it's legitimate or pirated discs. What's the whole purpose of engaging the dogs then? I just can't understand.

You go holiday already?! You're not allowed to go holiday before me!! I'm going only in May!!

Sam said...

You like to collect nice looking rocks right?

I want some rocks from the summit of Mount Kinabalu. =P

nyonyapenang said...

have a good time at mt kinabalu. remember to find your way back here, ya. :)

Applegal said...

sam: Hahaha, rocks from the mountain damn heavy okay?? ;)

Locals would advice that you not take anything from the mountain as it is the resting place of spirits when they die. The national park would ask that you do not remove anything from the mountain, be it rock or fauna.

Rocks from a mountain don't mean anything anyway, if you haven't been there! :D

moz monster said...

Ha ... I think the dogs can smell the stench those pirated DVDs are supposed to emit !!! Because the Ah Bengs manufacturing them probably smell really bad ...

Anyways ... Good luck for your Mt K climb ! Hope you've got all the accomodation booked. Can't just turn up and climb, you know.

And thanks for doing the tag (the first part of it, anyways !).
