My favorite band is always Queen. Three years ago, I was thrilled to known that The band's guitarist, Brian May, just got his PhD in astrophysics two weeks after my graduation procedure is filed. At that time, I can't contemplate how it was to be a rock star and to holds scientific PhD at the same time.

I have been using Launchy for a long time. It is a very good keystroke launcher, a best tool for keyboard fanatic. However, it takes too much ram on my Win7 machine and keeps crashing constantly. After googling a while, I found [FARR]("The Ultimate Program for Keyboard Maniacs") (Find and Run Robot), a highly configurable, full-featured keystroke launcher which brands itself as "The Ultimate Program for Keyboard Maniacs". This one is less eye-candy than Launchy but definitely a tool for a fanatic.

On Sat, I attended TEDxKrungthep, an independent TED event organized by local TED enthusiasts and the final speaker is Bojo, a choir master. He led all audiences to sing Heal the World by Michael Jackson. The strange thing for me is that, years ago, this is one of songs that I had kept cassette (yes, there is a thing called tape cassette at that time) nearby all the time but somehow, I forgot to include it in my iPhone. It simply get lost in time.

I am not a student of history nor have ever wished to be one. I lack background knowledge so required to judiciously analyze current event. Moreover, I cannot faithfully say that I understand their desire, their hatred nor their anger. You can be assured that you won’t find any attempt in justifying nor rationalizing the course of current event here. I won’t bother condemn nor praise any decision nor anybody.

Cheap earpiece

A few months ago, I bought an earpiece of the brand TDK, discounted @400 baht. The sound is good but I don't know whether it worth THB400. Anyway, last week I went to Pantip and saw an earpiece of the price THB69. Obviously I grabbed it and the result is that it is damn terrible. Seems like the TDK is a good deal for me.

The funniest point is that I was not satisfied with the TDK until I bought that THB69. Human, imperfect...

Skin changed

I Just change the theme to Sky. To my surprise, Sky is highly customizable. A user is allowed to change the default font, font size, alignment, width of the theme. That is exactly what I want from a theme. Now, the only problem is that I believe that the skin is a little bit sober. Will try to change that soon.
