Simple, so what a kid does to make noises on their bicycle, clip a playing card :)

Hong Kong, too crowded, air is bad, city layout and design are horrible. Only prefer New Territories and those islands, definitely not the main street as the effect of those high rise surrounding the so-call harbour (or should I say river now) causing all those heat and exhausted trapped inside the city core.
I still like the old airport when a plane land between buildings and it was kind of like a star wars x-wing fighter flying into the death star.

I never like carrying too many stuff, so the Sony Cell phone I have that also plays MP3 is what I use.

Who cares? It is ones talents that make ones worthy enough to be idols/stars. Only those naive enough will believe what they see on screen is the same as in real live.

I did like Macdonald's, BK and KFC when I was young, but as I get older or my taste buds started to mature, I have started to turn to some small restaurants or a burger truck on the street for burgers and fries. They just taste better. The meat actually tastes like meat. In most days, I prefer something other than burgers. I still remember I ate Ramen on the street.

What a brat! Driving without a license is already broken the law. Maybe he will learn after he stayed in jail.

I have found that a lot of those so-call horror movies are not scary at all. They are more of gross than scary. Of course, a sudden loud noise will always startle people, but that cannot be classified as being scared. IMO, a good horror film will need to create the atmosphere that the hairs of the audiences will stand on their ends without even displaying any gross/special make-up scene. So far, in recent years, I have seen none and I have watched a lot of horror movies. Way too many that I think I am desensitized. Some of them are so boring that I actually felt asleep while watching them.

Hummmmm! Anime Songs........ I think I like the group "Angela", the vocal seems nice but the way she sings reminds me a lot of Celine Dion though. Anime or not, it is the melodies and whether the singer can actually sing that count. It does not matter whether it is anime or not. Definitely not raps/heavy metal as they simply give me a headache. Some of the lyrics of the new songs does not even make sense to me even though I hardly pay attention to them at all.

If you run X number of applications for N number of departments, a hardware failure will bring down all X number of applications and get N number of departments' employees paid day off.
It is nice from a financial point of view of cutting cost and saving money, but it introduces potential single point of failure. To solve that, you will probably need to clusterize it with multiply servers.

One thing I find it very interesting is that most people I know have an iPhone are not in the technical field (I work in IT).
Anyway, I only use my phone to call in case of emergency, work related issue and talk to my wife and kids. The rest is to play Sudoku while I am on the train and listen to music. Oh! Also used as alarm clock. The rest, if the number is not recognized, I will ignore the call. After all, if it is emergency, they will either leave message or call back. If it is not, I do not really care.

Farscape, Stargate SG1, Dr. Who, X-Files, The nature of things, Myth Buster.
For J Show, the first that come into my mind is "Ore tachi no tabitatsu" (Our journey). I watched it when I was a kid.

I hope those who ride HD in Japan/Asia are not going to be as obnoxious as those in NA. Extremely loud tail pipes that do nothing but to annoy the neighbors.

If he really wanted to die, he would not crash his car. Jumping off a building would be better and probably less chances of hurting others.

In North America here, women have been advised not to leave their drinks out of sight and they should also take them to the toilets if possible. In the case of they have left the drinks, discard them. That's because there have been cases of their drinks were tempered and got raped.
That even occur when some poor girl date a guy and the guy spiked her drink and raped the girl. I guess that's the name "date raped drug" comes from.

Nice kimono, but I really hate walking on wet street especially when my 6 year old boy likes to jump in every puddle he encounters.
