Oh look, I have a blog. A couple of nights ago, I had a wonderful dinner with a good firend and the topic of reading came up many times. I mentioned that I have stopped reading fiction, and instead, I’m concentrating on non-fiction instead. Maybe some day I’ll pick up fiction again, who knows.
In my [...]

Two Ways of Reading
A Pope’s Cruel Belief
Our good friend, Pope Benedict XVI claimed today that the world’s cruelty comes from atheists (Hat tip to John Walkenbach). You can read the actual excepts here.
You know, I have always been led to believe that Christianity is a ‘loving’ religion (the woman I love is of a Christian faith, even when I am not). [...]
The Economics of Adult Webcam Sites
About a week or two ago, one of my housemates wondered whether it would be feasible for him to porn himself, seeing that there are many pedophiles preying on him (he looks really really really young and small, despite already doing his PhD.). Specifically, he was wondering on whether anyone would want to watch him [...]
Reverse Racism

WiMAX, Auctions, Beauty Contests and et cetera
Today, I’m taking a break from the Miscellaneous series, a series of posts about random miscellany in life. Instead, I will delve into some more serious economic topics like Elanor (hah! I wish!). More specifically, I’ll be talking nonsense about WiMAX in Malaysia.
In the year 2000, the United Kingdom decided to auction off 3G airwaves. [...]
Irrational Panic – Homo Economicus is Dead
Friends, Romans Earthlings, Countrymen Planetmen, lend me your ears:
Homo Economicus is dead. We have lost him a few days ago, but we have missed him for a long time. We have missed his rational actions, his rational voice in our daily actions.
Homo Economicus was the man whom, when given a set of information, would make [...]
