I was almost killed twice… ..by the same car! It happened on a no U-turn intersection. I almost ran over by a speeding black car on my way to middle of the road. I was about to get to the other side but was distracted when I waved to a passing colleague and was almost bumped again by the same car! The car made a U-turn on a no U-turn road, to try to kill me one more time. I thank my lucky stars for still being alive.

Still Life With Woodpecker
When I saw this pack of Camel cigarettes at a store in Kuala Lumpur, I knew I have to buy it. I wanted to have a pack of Camel cigarettes ever since I read the book “Still Life With Woodpecker” by Tom Robbins. I’m not a smoker, you just have to read the book to understand…
“Still Life with Woodpecker is sort of a love story that takes place inside a pack of Camel cigarettes. It reveals the purpose of the moon, explains the difference between criminals and outlaws, examines the conflict between social activism and romantic individualism, and paints a portrait of contemporary society that includes powerful Arabs, exiled royalty, and pregnant cheerleaders. It also deals with the problem of redheads.”
