I am not a Big Fan of Hate - Part II

Devil..? Who is the devil?

Everyone of us has the evil side of us where are our actions might be dislike (consider evil) by others.

I am sure you have some dislike about others (attitude, behavious, etc). The same thing goes around... others MIGHT NOT LIKE YOU too... cos you might be "the evil" to them... (not a personal attack... I am quoting an example)

Here, again I will say... learn to forgive and pardon is how you can remove the evil perspective from different point of view in looking into a matter.

I am not a Big Fan of Hate - Part II

There no point instill hatred feeling to the young generation. Education shall be taught as a guideline to the next generation so that they learn what is called "suffering" and make sure they don't do it to others. And also a person should learn what painful is this lesson and hope that it won't happened to them.

Let me share my experience with an World War 2 P.O.W. This P.O.W was mistaken a westerner becuase of his look when Japan invaded Asean. No one can believed the "suffering" he had gone through. Part of his body was skinned with his eye wide open! Later, he was pardoned by the Emperor. From there, he learnt suffering and learnt how to overcome this pain and move on with his life. He realised that learning to "PARDON" for someone mistake is the greatest feeling in his life.

This enlightenment has make his life journey more colourful because he already able to unload the heavy hatred feelings that he was carrying.

I do believe learn to forgive and learn from mistake will make a person life more colourful. Try this yourself... you might unload some weights behind your brain and looking forward a happier day when you wake up the next morning :)

Cash on Delivery Still Preferred

well, I got to know about this door-to-door services while I am staying in Shanghai. I guess China is a labour intensive country. They can afford to use manpower to deliver the ticket to your doorstep hence show appreciation of using their services. During the delivery the Cunsumer can ensure that the goods they purchased meet their expectation. Isn't that good for the Consumer?

p.s: Credit card is not widely use in China yet.

Blue Check (Check-in) for Virgin Blue

During my last trip to Hangzhou, I tried to select my seating position for my train ticket. At that time I just realised you're not able to choose your seating position. It is either you take it or leave it. I was amazed...!! The worst thing they seperate my wife and my seating. Luckily the passanger was friendly enough and exchange his seat for me so that I can be seated next to my wife.

When do you think that this seat selection system will be implemented in Shanghai?

MovableType Successfully Installed on Windows XP

I got as far as Inetmgr.exe. I right clicked the MT folder, selected Properties, clicked Create button in Application Settings area on Directory tab.

Then this is the part I don't understand:
Click configure and check the program to parse .pl files.
It is C:\program files\bin\perl.exe "%s" %s for my server.
Note: The following changes can be changed on website level, no applicaiton level. Click Add and enter the same parsing program (C:\program files\perl\bin\perl.exe "%s" %s for my case) and enter .cgi to Extension text box. Click OK.
