why me? i'm not even muslim!

Old B4 here is not long for this world. On Friday he will be, um, sacrificed in a millennium old Muslim tradition.

Idul Adha is a pretty big holiday. The story goes that Allah told Abraham to sacrifice his only son to him. "Gee the old guy must be getting a bit senile," thought Abraham, because he had (at least) two sons, and probably many, many more. Anyway, to cut a long story short, Allah let him -- or Isaac -- off the hook.

Christians and Muslims alike celebrate Abraham for his dedication and faith. Personally, I think it's a crappy story, and just shows how nasty the Judeo-Islamic God could be. Talk about passive-aggressive!

Of course, most people have a slightly different take on the story.

fighting the flab

A while ago I started using the stairs instead of the lift. Why? I thought it would be a good way to get a bit of exercise.

Warranted, it is only 7 floors (88 stairs) and it only takes 2 or so minutes. But since that is hardly longer than waiting for the lift, why not?

Then last week I decided to add a bit of running to the routine. At 8,5 kmph it's more shuffle than run. And 20 minutes three times a week isn't exactly what I would call taxing.

Despite this, the results so far have been good. Less flab, although most people probably wouldn't notice.

Not that it matters. I notice and I'm feeling pretty happy with myself.

fish & co... and salad

Awan wolfed down a seafood platter. I had salad and soup. The worst thing about being forty? A slower metabolism.

the city disappears

The heavens just unleashed one hell of a torrent. It looks like the wet season is upon us. It's fun watching the motorcyclists who don't realise that engines don't work underwater.

A hyper-opinionated bule with a deep fondness for Indonesia. Mildly outraged but mostly harmless.
