Downtime



My home's Internet was down for 2.5 days. And my blogging life stood still. (I am giving excuses.)

Internet began as a nice to have novelty that have become a must have for survival. Well, I am exaggerating, a little.

How does one exaggerate only a little? One only needs to read our DPM's comment today that "Malaysia's inflation rate is the lowest in the world " to find proof. Perhaps he already stockpiled his food and stuff for the next 20 years.

Perhaps like my Internet, we are all experiencing a downtime - where we feel unconnected to the 'real' world. Perhaps all this is just a temporary thing, like a downtime, and we will all get our Roti Canai for 80sens again or our Karipup will cost 30sens again.

Maybe, just maybe we only need to wait 55 days for the truth to arrive like our dear friend in Malacca.

i gave benghui rm3.00 to buy ice creams for the three of us as usual...the tauke refused to let him take the ice cream until i got off from the car...the boss said the ice cream had gone up to rm3.60. some bakeries are resorting to selling mini cute loaves of bread at rm1.90 to make the price of bread seem affordable.
the titbit ike keropok have gone up by average abt 20%
