Neiman Marcus Online

Somehow I bumped into this website showing Neiman Marcus Online store. Going through its online catalog, I found that besides selling ladies/men/kids' apparel, shoes, fashion/beauty accessories, handbags, electronics, home furnishing, it also sells this special package - Virgin Galactic Charter To Space.

What is this package about? Well, it's a trip to space via Virgin Galactic's spaceship for you and 5 other persons you intend to bring along. Cost of it? US$1,764,000.00. When? Expected to be in year 2009 when the spaceship is ready for commercial flight. Read about what's being offered in the package.

So happened I did blog about Virgin Galactic space venture on 14 Jan 2007.

China's Space Range Missiles

China at long last developed a new type of long range missiles. The target area? Space!

China was quiet in this area of missiles development and out of a sudden, with the last such missile being used by another nation was 20 years ago, China shot a missle up to the space to destroy one of its own weather satellite. It shocked many other nations such as USA, UK, Australia, Canada, South Korea and Japan.

China's explanation for the launching of such missile is to force USA into talks in doing away with space weapons. The missile was launched from Xichang Space Centre in Sichuan province at a speed of 76,000km/h (47,000mph) slammed straight at the weather satellite.

Young Love

A six-year-old boy told his father he wanted to marry the little girl across the street. The father, being modern and well-schooled in handling children, hid his smile behind his hand. "That's a serious step," he said. "Have you thought it out completely?"

"Yes," his young son answered. "We can spend one week in my room and the next in hers. It's right across the street, so I can run home if I get scared of the dark."

"How about transportation?" the father asked."I have my wagon, and we both have our tricycles," the little boy answered. The boy had an answer to every question the father raised.

Finally, in exasperation, his dad asked, "What about babies? When you're married, you're liable to have babies, you know." "We've thought about that, too," the little boy replied. "We're not going to have babies. Every time she lays an egg, I'm going to step on it!"

Bloggers Unite

With Jeff Ooi and Rocky being sued, lots of Malaysian bloggers have united together. It wouldn't have happened if NST didn't initiate the legal suits.
- Malaysian bloggers unite against defamation lawsuits

Susan Loone has created a webspace for Bloggers United for bloggers to join hands calling for freedom of speech.

Kickdefella has allowed bloggers, young & old, Malaysian & non-Malaysian to unite to denounce NST.

Certain individuals have put up a blog, called Walk With Us, dedicated to support both Jeff and Rocky.
