Whats In A Blog?

Plugging in : Tool - Eulogy

The question many people ask. Whats in a blog? Why waste time? Well my friends, a blog can tell you more than what you might think. A persons opinion or knowledge, forever on the web for all to see, even when your time has passed. I'm saying this because the minute after making this whole blog it reminded me of my late cousin who passed away at his prime leaving a wife and three children. He was a very outspoken person, one who always spoke his mind. Even though i felt as if i wasnt that close to him, i still think of him as one of my favourites cousins ever.

Sweet memories such as our fishing trip where we used roti canai as the bait :) , throwing one cent coins at the windows of slow moving vehicles, and our command and conquer rivalries shall never be forgotten. He is also remembered as the "joker" of our family. Ironic that his name is even there in the title : "Joe-ker" hah, get it?

Well, im typing this also because i didnt let out much or any emotions during the funeral. I thought i should handle it like a man. But as time flies by, more than half a year gone, guilt started building up. Guilt? What for? You might ask, well to me i think a person deserves to be remembered in one way or another, especially in situations like these. If not, well...thats just plain mean.

To my suprise, his legendary (for Malaysians that is) blog is still up for viewing. Of course, no updates are to be made, but there are plenty of posts up still available for all to see. Everyone who reads this, make sure you go there, see what a great person he was. Also check out the post he made about the "male britney" of which i sent the link to which i got on be-mag's grom infested messageboard. :P

Rock on Abang Joe.
