"In Paul the Sotong We Trust !"

Yes, today more people around the world, are willing to trust Paul the octopus anytime to lay a wager then to any of the bullshit one hears from the mouths of our politicians and the police.

What's with our PM, the IGP and the Home Ministry these days, huh ? Have they all got so much baggage and skeletons in their respective closets that they have to make such threatening remarks of arrest if Altantuya, C4 or Scorpean subs are mentioned in private and personal blogs ? What is there to fear if one walks in the path of righteousness and with only God to fear or of their own shadows ?

Chegu Bard whom I had the pleasure of meeting once before March 8th 2008 was arrested last night for having assumingly writing about the royalty in his blog last month( here ). Can't a man pen an opinion ? Why must everything be taken as negative criticism and not as a constructive suggestion ? After all if one feels there is something wrong with the system or a certain "individual" can't one even express one's displeasure in writing ?

Remember we are but mere mortals, royals included, in this world and we are not in control of human weaknesses, just like that man sitting beside you right now, so how can anyone be better or worse off then you for having a "right" to an opinion ? Just goes to show how shallow and corrupted our "freedom of expression" is, when nobody is brought to book for the pile of rubbish and hate a certain Malay daily, enjoys, yes ? ( here )
Sheeesh !
