Was Florida, Now Copenhagen, then where?

Busy, that's all I can think about. I smell busy and hard time ahead. It's the 3rd day now since I messed up the robot. Just imagine connecting a 24VDC to a 415VAC supply.....what gonna happene? Kaboom! Spark everywhere! Yeah...I fried the robot brain, now the heart stop and it got a fried brian. These few days we trying to bring the robot back to live. Been trying a lot of emergency rescue, feed him with special medicine called Fuse... 10A, 7.5A .but still in vain. Robot is our business, no robot = no business. What are the next step? Well I try to pump in new heart for the robot, still no respond.. The only thing we can do now is flying the damaged organ directly from Sweden and expert robot surgeon to the rescue. This takes a few week.

Beside the robot, other pieces of shit coming up one by one. Mid of next month, destination Copenhagen, Denmark for 2009 product training. Just came back from Florida, United States. I have to cope with these robotic corpse. Another two weeks time I will be in JB when we successfully bring back the robot to live.

All these are really pain in the arse... Lesson learned - check your circuit before you push the on buttons and don't trust the technician. If they are smarter than you, they already be in your position.

Ranting, yet still have to work...

Some Updates and my gorrilapod

March was a busy month for me and and the end of first quarter for year 2008. Time flies by. There is a lot to do. I was busy preparing my interview for my United States VISA which has been approved. I was lucky to get 10 years multiple entry VISA. Husqvarna Asian Technical Conference was over and it was a great experience to held and organize such a an event in the company I work for. Tired but yet get to eat a lot of superb food.

I expect my friend to bring back my iPhone from U.S. and I have no time to go back Penang to get my new iPhone. Anyhow, 6 pcs of iPhone in my shopping list for my upcoming trip to Bradenton, Florida, United States. I don't know how to bring it back.

Last Sunday, went to Pudu Plaza for Clicque photo fair organized by YL Camera and Futuromic. Mostly Nikon, Tamron, Jenova, Ricoh and Joby product. I am a Canon user. The Joby Gorrilapod caught my attention. This is the tools you need when you travel a lot and bringing tripod (even if it is a carbon fiber) is very very messy. Just imagine you have to gone through immigration checking and check in luggage. I got myself a Gorrilapod SLR Zoom. The biggest brother in it's range. Can support to a maximum of 3kg (A 70-200 F2.8L IS and 1Ds Mark III)and include 3/4 thread to mount tripod head. Damaged cost - RM159. I think it is fairly priced and a very very useful item for traveler.




From my past experience, it like an idiot carrying a Manfrotto 099ProB with K2 Benro Ball head walking around in Europe. The tripod itself with head already near to 5kg! So this is the best tools so far. Easy and fast to set-up anywhere, any surface condition.

Today the first day of April. It is April Fools, but can't fool around. I have list of to-do things before I depart to the states. Still busy as usual.

How nice would it be if there's 48 hours in a day... Are day dreaming again...
