wtf

this phone and I are no longer affiliated


I lost my phone in a trishaw. The guy had no front teeth and the cab smelled like BO, so I’m rating my chances of recovery kinda low. That’s pretty crap, but it’s only the start. Call Dialog to get a SIM and they ask for my National ID. That’s fine, after a year of wrangling I finally got one months ago. I pull the card out of my wallet, and see some fathead staring back at me. This is definitely not my ID. It belongs to one Rithin Somebody. I was visiting Dialog Corporate and the damn door monkies took my ID and gave me the wrong one back. This at least lets me combine my messes tomorrow, but I still have no phone, no contacts, and somebody else’s ID. I just want to watch junk TV and eat cookies but now I’ve got my feet cut at the ankles. At least nobody can call to yell at me.

That’s all. Wtf.

I’m sorry about this. Bad day all round I’m thinking. At the moment having company barbeque- it’s a fucking washout and i’ve had enough red wine to put away a large rhinocerous. Email me, or I’ll email you my number so you can call me and i can annoy you some more.

Getting A Chinese Visa In Sri Lanka (Or Trying)

I want to visit my friend in China before he comes back. Free place to crash and all. So, I applied for a visa to China, from Colombo. I’m not sure I’ll get it, but this is process to at least apply. For official but incomplete info, check out the Chinese Embassy website.

Sarath Fonseka And The Mahavamsa

The Mahavamsa (a history of Sri Lanka) is full of conflicts between generals and kings. Usually, the more bloodthirsty and unscrupulous would win. Our current (elected) ruler Mahinda Rajapaksa has had his own general conflicts, namely with one Sarath Fonseka. In the old days Fonseka would have staged a coup, as in literally try to cut of Mahinda’s head, and Mahinda would – if that failed – tie him to four elephants and split his parts asunder. Can’t do that shit anymore. Instead Fonseka ran for office and lost and Mahinda tossed him in jail.

Why Does India Suck At The Olympics?

Today on the morning show we talked about the Olympics, namely China’s emerging dominance. For me the bigger question is India. Why does India suck so much? In 2008 the US won 110 medals, China won 100 and India won… 3. India has over a billion people, some economic clout and is by all counts an emerging superpower, but they suck at the Olympics. Why?

New New Kottu

Janith has updated Kottu with rims and shit. Seriously, it looks pretty good. You could say the desktop look is cosmetic, but check out the mobile. Kottu now looks like an app with settings and menus and such. The biggest problem with K2 is me, ie, it now takes me up to a month to respond to emails. OMG I’m scared of my email. But Janith’s done this code and design update all by himself and it looks pretty good. Check it out. There was one bug with the previous page link. Lettuce know if there’s any more.
