    Best wishes. You started well on neutral ground but of late have chosen to be the tool of certain parties for reasons best known to you. Anyway, the choice is yours and yours alone. Actually, nothing wrong in being a tool or taking sides. However, please don't have two faces and drop that holier than thou stance. Dari Dia kita datang, kepada Dia kita akan kembali...in between it is all cosmetic. All the best.

    Yup...that is also how long I have followed your blog. Sometimes, I like what you wrote. Sometimes, I hate it. Other times, I just read it with no feeling. Guess it is just a reader sinusoidal thoughts. Anyway, thanks for blogging. w9

  8. So Bro, you better remember your new roots. These few items (and more coming) are your new roots. I believe it will be a pain in the ass for you if you lose them.

    Many, many more years of blogging success to you, Rocky!
