Who Is Dumb and Who Is Dumber?

Another bombing in Indonesia. This time in Jimbaran and Kuta, Bali. Last Saturday night, Kafe Raja's was packed of diners and tourists, which had been choosen to be the target. So far, the casualties is 23 people died, which more than 100 injured. Police said this is a suicide bombing, where they got a video recording just moment before it happened. It the recording, it showed a young man wearing black T-shirt and medium size backpack.

Anyone who planned this attack is clearly stupid and ignorant. In the time where oil prices have just been risen; and the wide-spread Avian Flu epidemic; the bombing will only take the situation into deeper sh*t. This will only bring another hard time for the investors and stocks market. Deeply sorry for anyone who lost their loved ones from this cowardice action.

Talking about dumb ass, I had this interesting chat in MIRC just yesterday evening. He said that Internet connection in Australia is just as slow as it is in Indonesia. ROFL! He never been to Australia, but he WAS arrogantly proud to claim that Internet in Australia is just sh_t too.

Further more, he heard this from his friend, who apparently lives in Singapore. Then this friend heard it from the sister who studies in Australia. Oh, c'mon, man. I know people sometimes say silly things, but what he did was over the line. Those three with a simple script and cheap handycam could make a comedy show like "The Three Stooges" =)

Even comparing ADSL with same speed: 128 kbps in Australia and Indonesia will proove that what we have here is more stable and reliable than in Indonesia. I know he said that just to entertain himself as he is stuck with slow connection. And he tries to deny that there are people who could enjoy fast-speed Internet connection with a cheaper rate than what they charge on slower speed in Indonesia. Self denial is really a do-it-yourself cure for losers tho.

Keep acting big! It's still free of charge anyway, and while I can enjoy knowing that there are a lot of people that are dumber than me.
