Aaaaannd WE'RE BACK!

SAWASDEE KHRUB! Okay.. okay. we're kinda back from a trip to.. uh... now, where were we?! But we'll let you know in the coming posts.

Though we're back... we're not going to post regular features like the old times. Let's leave that in January 2012. When we do our full swing.

In the mean time, you'll see lots of rants which BISEAN was known for. You\ll love it.

Sofia and I would like to thank those who stayed during our long hiatus. You know who you are. We love you bloggers from the Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, US and Indonesia. (we'll they were the ones who left notes while we were gone so, don't complaint if you don't find yours on the list.)

Ciao! And see you... uh.. tomorrow. We're flying to Jakarta.

Pisanu's SMOKEY TALES



A collection of encounters, thoughts and funny tales. These are blog posts too short to have their own titles.



Whenever me and Sofia have to share a hotel room, I am not allowed to smoke in the bathroom. She will bark for hours if she smells the dang smoke when I get out of the pooh-pooh room. Waha!

Just this morning, I accidentally found a solution.

I splattered CreamSilk conditioner (which I bought in Manila) on my hair while secretly smoking in the bathroom. When I opened the door, ready to take the wrath of Sofia...she called out

“OMG! What shampoo did you use?!! Smells soooo terrific! Smells like fresh flowers in there! I luuurrrrvvv it!”

Haha! Now I can smoke in the bathroom till kingdom come. *and I don’t even know why I posted this. Darn.*

****

Speaking of smoking… anyone of you heard of Champix?

It’s a drug regimen (legal!) which supposed to help you/me/us/them QUIT smoking.

Mother sent me 2 months worth of tablets, because she wanted me to stop the habit but

Dad emailed me an article from America that Champix is being recalled (?) because it was making users depressed and there were 3 suicide incidences leading to the drug. Side effects include ulcers, loss of vision and vertigo. *I can take the ulcer and vertigo but LOSS OF VISION?!!!!* Yeah, my lungs are healthy but I won’t see any darn thing! Ha!

Ma, I flushed the Champix on the toilet this morning just in case I would have the urge to take it. Thanks anyway.

****

Mother, my brother and other friends including enemies say:

“Quit smoking, $%*&)=+@!!!”

Dad and I say: “Yeah, right. Die anyway."

I met a dude on the beach the other day. He looks like a bum – homeless, dirty, skinny, dry skin and all… unhealthy...the total package.

Absolute curious cat that I am…I made an effort to make a conversation with the sickly dude.

“Dude, maybe you should quit smoking till you get well.” I said with genuine concern and much irony to myself.

He said “No, I don’t smoke. Never did.”

“Oh! Ok. Maybe you should stop drinking…or maybe stop going out to parties at night.” I said looking away.

“No, I don’t drink. And I don’t even have money and friends to go out with.”

My vision was blurring in confusion. “You don’t smoke. You don’t drink nor go out to party at night?” I took out my camera-phone

He shook his head and silently said …”No.” He was looking at my cam-phone.

“You mind if I take your photo? I’ll give you money…”

“What for?” the dude looked straight at me.

“I just wanna show my mother what happens to people who don’t smoke, don't drink and don't party.”

He let me take his photo for US$ 1. Mother, check your email.

GLOBAL WARMING IS A HOAX!

Global Warming isn’t caused by my cigarettes, I’m sorry. Nga. My refrigerator isn’t causing it either, thank you very much.
Nor my SUVs *yes, in plural*, nor my jet ski, nor my JaguarX3, nor my air-conditioning and please leave my Playstation alone! Gaddammit!

I am all out for the environment as long as it makes sense – Plant more trees, recycle, preserve the forests, save the wildlife, responsible garbage dumping, and all those stuffs BUT PLEASE – leave my doodahs alone!

Neptune’s Triton is heating up since 1999 as reported by BBC. Pluto and Charon are extraordinarily heating up since 2002 as reported by Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Jupiter’s Io had a volcanic eruption the same year. Jupiter is also having a time of his life with more storms over there.

In December 2002, ABC reported Mars (our closest inter-planetary neighbour) is warming up too! And last year, Interstars.net reported that Saturn is starting to heat up.

Triton, Pluto, Charon, Mars and Saturn…Do they have SUVs, cigies and Playstation up there? What about air cons and refrigerators, huh? -- Pffft!

Global Warming is a hoax! It’s a FRAUD! Misdirection. Somebody is benefiting from this stupid theory over there in America.

There is a real reason behind it; this “Global Warming” hullabaloo. And your governments don’t want you to know. Well, maybe they don’t know it too *and what’s new with that?*

Based on the latest satellite data cited in a December 2007 article, NASA climate scientist Jay Zwally predicts that nearly all the ice could be gone from the Arctic Ocean BY THE END OF SUMMER 2012.

Take the cue. We did. Why do you think we’ve been to Nepal? – One of the world’s highest places…

2012.

No, it’s not the end of the world – but life, as we know itwill change.

2012 December 21.

Are you ready for the fly-by?

THE STUCK UP HOMOSEXUALIST

What is a Homosexualist? -- It is to mean those active homosexuals who are trying to make it compulsory for all. But who are the Stuck-Up Homosexualists? --They are the ones who still think that gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender people are still living in absolute discrimination.

Stuck-Up Homosexualists are the ones who isolate themselves from the world and claim injustices for dramatic purposes only. They would hide behind the GLBT causes just to draw attention to themselves – denying the fact that the world judges them by character and not by their sexual preference any longer.

Ever heard of the popular TV character Daffyd Thomas of the BBC series
Little Britain”? He is so absorbed to being a homosexualist that he still thinks people are discriminating his sexuality, even if they’re not! -- blinding him of the fact that the world has opened up and gotten more accepting – but he does not (or would not) acknowledge it.

The GLBT Community leaders have accomplished so much throughout the yearslet’s give them credit, for christssake! The world is aware of our existence and many laws were passed to make sure our rights are equal with just about everyone else. We still have some problems, of course and more laws to lobby. But we have to give credit to our predecessors. They did their best and mind you, they did a fabulous job!

Stuck-Up Homosexualists are still living in the dark ages. They thought the world is still on its toes to get them and the witch hunt is still on. They discredit what our GLBT leaders had accomplished and fails to appreciate the changes we owe to them. Pause and think for a while.
