OK, I gave up trying to post my post trip reviews here in the past because VirtualTourist (VT) is a better place and in a way, this is a discussion forum instead of picture posting forum. I don't want to clog up MCF sapping bandwidth. Here are my travel pages. Mainly Malaysia. Port Dickson http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/97dde/138f38/ Recommendations for accomodations are there as to some sights like Pantai Biru and Kota Lukut in the Off The Beaten Path tip. Kuala Rompin http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/97dde/138f7d/ If you think Cherating is too far and Desaru is too near, KR is just nice. Cherating http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/97dde/13c233/ Nice if you want to go further. Avoid monsoon season. Melaka http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/97dde/138f11/ If JB's crime gives you the creeps, this place will set you mind a little at ease. Still be careful. An MCFer lost his boss' SUV here in a shopping mall carpark. Kukup http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/97dde/138b32/ Nothing much here but the Southern-most point of mainland Asia is worth the visit. Kukup island too if you like to see this huge mangrove island. Kota Tinggi and the Greater Desaru Area http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/97dde/138b41/ Closest place you can go under 2hrs. Ver few good quality accomodations. Pulai Desaru Beach gets booked pretty fast on long weekends. Desaru Golden Beach is crappy but the restaurant food is better. Terengannu http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/97dde/6be/ Under here you will find the rest of the attractions and how to get there. Driving in Phuket (Northeast of the island and to Laem Promthep) http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/tt/89514/#TL Half drive and to Ban Khao Lak then guided tour to Khao Sok National Park http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/tt/915f4/#TL http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/tt/915f6/#TL

I was reading about Nanolubricant (Tungsten disulfide) with great interest. Just to quote from Car Bibles: "The idea is that unlike oil, the nanolubricant never wears down; it is permanent and requires no maintenance. Theoretically, a nanolubricant can be used for various friction reducing applications, such as on the outer coating of ships and planes to reduce water and air friction, respectively. If you're that way inclined, think of what it could do to the sex toy industry.... The powder will eventually stand on its own as a lubricant, however Applied Nanomaterials realizes that recognition of the technology requires collaboration with lubricant manufacturers as an additive to existing lubricants. The problem of course is that if this lubricant never needs changing, anyone who decides to mass manufacture and market it is going to lose a chunk of revenue - once you dump it in your engine, you never buy any more. Great for you and me, bad business model for the company who dares to market it." Source: Car Bibles The Israeli company, ApNano has started to market their product Nanolub and reported test and positive results here: ApNano The powder form is also sold here: Nanolubricant In one extreme test, nanotechnology-based lubricant continues to lubricate even in severe oil loss scenarios. This sounds like a great product, is it true or marketing hype?

Ok here am I just driving into the loading/unloading bay of my block. Then in front of me racing towards my car was a cat, pursued by 3 stray dogs. They zipped past me. I got out of the car and saw the dogs cornered the cat at a tree and were attacking it with ferocity of wild animals. I popped the boot and took out my steering wheel lock. I charged at the animals besieging the stray cat. and they fled. The cat was growling. Pupils dilated (in shock). A motorist stopped his car and ran across the road as well to stop this carnage. I prodded the cat with my weapon to ascertain if it can be hauled to a safer place. Woah! It was aggressive as I expected. The adrenalin has not subsided. The motorist have to run off to work. There I stood with my weapon guarding the wounded animal. Then the 3 dogs returned. Very obvious they were out to get the cat as food. They came in quite close as I stood my gound. I imagined myself with a blood dripping katana standing off against mystical rabid mutant hyenas. Then of all things my 3yo daughter shows up! ARGH! Now I must fend for the cat and my daughter! "Call mommy to get a box from home!" This made her run off easing my worries. The dogs stared while I continually drew a bead on each on of them. (sound of spaghetti western soundtrack buzzed through my head). They got fed up and left just like their ancestors before when my ancestors stole prey from them to eat. My wife brought the box and I lift the cat. It is no longer agressive and put it into the box. Took it to a safe place in the 3rd floor lift landing and placed it there. All this in a morning when I decided to wear my favorite expensive shirt and now I'm drenched in sweat to drive the girls to school.

Times really fly. Being typical Sporean, here's an advance notice for you:- Happy Birthday, Bro May you enjoy Good Health as usual And remember to buy Toto Got buy got HOPE

They are all BS! I hope all newbies take note. Maybe make this a sticky. Please note that these are all crap! No need to prove that they aren't because many have tried and they don't work. If it did for you, you are most likely trying to justify your ultraexpensive purchase to save your own face by going along with the snake oil vendor by inflating your experience. DRUM ROLLLLL..... Tornado my 4ss! Ah yesss! Ionize your fuel with a 1million gauss magnet. Yeah right! http://magnapak-magnetic-mattress-health-therapy.com/xcart/image.php?productid=5 Results of a crap electric blower. Might as well install your KDK fan to your car. No damage to the car except the owner's wallet. Air Intake Temperature Sensor Hack. More performance is confirmed together with blackened spark plugs and astronomical fuel consumption. More turbo blower hogwash. And finally a sorry pic of a tornado/hurricane crap. Anymore crap posters want to add?

Hi Genie Saw your car this morning in Ayer Rajah Crescent. I horned at you and actually I am intending to ask you for Breakfast if you are free. Nevertheless, if you are free whenever time in the day, can contact me for kopi break. Anymore Bros working in Ayer Rajah Crescent?

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but where to buy the Murphy's Oil Soap that you mentioned in the thread on leather care?
