Debates over the advantages and risks of airbags aren't new.
The new airbag design options might just put an end to the controversy. Or might not.

 

Third day in Manhattan and so far we have tried 5 different restaurants. I got to say the Peking Duck we tried last night was the best I ever had, but I am worried the waiter got exasperated with us... we ate so much and took all the time in the world to enjoy our meal.

Okay.. we are total tourists. Please New Yorkers, don't hate. We love your city... actually I am thinking of moving to New York. But until then I have to wonder around and try my luck, unless someone has a suggestion.

Update: Bummer, the 10 days trip got shortened to a 7days trip. JJ, you suck; getting a girlfriend doesn't mean you can't have girl friends. Well good luck anyway.

My brother has been on a diet for the past month or so.. maybe I should do the same but my love for food takes over me. As I said he is on diet and refuse absolutely to eat out. Results: I need to cook... everyday.

For those who knows me, I am nothing close to the ideal housewife whatsoever. My cooking skills are decent but very limited. I was blown away by 'Ratatouille' I love the movie... It just made me realize cooking is a lot of work. Of course it is something I enjoy, especially if I am cooking for a special occasion or have friends over. But cooking everyday is a battle for me. Coming up with the menu is already an ordeal. I have no idea what to make or what might be in the fridge.
No need to add that my lovely brother cannot eat the same thing twice in a row
(I still love you... but when are you getting married? )

Please tell me I am not alone feeling that way. Don't you feel the same way?

Okay... moving past the melodramatic  episode. I somehow landed on this page.. my savior. Type in what you have, or want, or hate... and VOILA !!



Well .. time for me to make something tasty.

Note: ... yes, the brother knows how to cook, but he only cooks for his girlfriend

  Just received the DVD player I ordered last week... Why am I so excited?
It will allow me to play DVD's from all over the world (no more worries about region code) and I can plug in my external HD. Yes, finally I will be able to play any movie or anime I have without the dilemma of burning a DVD.

New acquisition Philips DVP 5982



Region Code Key
Hold the Stop key on the remote to Open the DVD tray
press Setup
select Preference
Press 1, 3, 8, 9, 3, 1
Press up/down key to select "0

Price? $70
Rather decent pricing. And it is available at most Best Buys or Circuit City. Got mine on Amazon.
Way better than those region free players we can buy online running around $130.

Next Acquisition ... The Command Center Display (Zenview Six Panel Display)



Price? Starting from $2'500
Yes, very pricy ... Hopefully when I will be ready to afford this system the price would have gone done.

Do I need all this? no, of course not.
But it is like an addiction. For some, it would be shoes... (yes shoes, you girls know what I am talking about... actually guys are getting into that too). For others, it would be purses... Or even cars (if you got the cash).

Even though I have not got the time to follow the whole season, I am still a fan of Heroes.
Our Heroes are set to see the world they labored so long to save.

In addition to gracing the respective cities with their heroic presence, the cast will be making personal appearances, engaging in meet-and-greets with fans and making TV appearances. The tour includes New York, Toronto, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore and other cities.

That's exciting... too bad they don't stop by where I live.
My Favorite Hero ?? Hiro Nakamura
