Some Whistles Blowing...

On World Cup fields
and further Afield
and in the air-field too!

Whistle1 Blowing

For mGf sssssspirit and other less acquainted fair-dinkum blokes, Tokki's injury-timed penalty right on leftist target must have sunk many a stout hearted Oz early this moUrn - but Desi can't offer a second bite at the Apple because the Referee holds the whistle. Yesterdie he ruled Desi "offside" -- though many of my chinoserie buds at roadside Mamak stalls would yell: Outside! Outside-lah! But the Referee rightly ignored damned. Luckily the game was not played in a Latin Americano cuntry, otherVICE, a gunshot could have struck the Referee for gioving that Penalty shot!

But I ofer some consolation from the (Nu'e?) Seekers from back when life was simpler, even the cinemascope was mainly in Black&White, and the cowboy always rode into the sunset with not a broken heart, but whistling a tune that says: I'll be back!

So in four years' time, the Oz will come storming back, and Car Hill will roll all over the opponents, uphill, down dale, even all over Italia, Sophia Loren and Mama-MIA not withstanding.

Welcome to another Whistle2 Blowing from an old, rugged horse:~~~~~~~

Morningtown Ride

Composed by: Malvina Reynolds

Train whistle blowing, makes a sleepy noise,
Underneath their blankets go all the girls and boys.
Heading from the station, out along the bay,
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away.
Sarah's at the engine, Tony rings the bell,
John swings the lantern to show that all is well.
Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay,
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away.

Maybe it is raining where our train will ride,
But all the little travelers are snug and warm inside.
Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day,
Somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles away.
And back home, another happy note blown by another type of whistle:~~~~~~~


DESIDERATA:

I still ENJOY travelling by train; never fails to make my iMAgine go wilde, trying to recapture The Continental Express and having CON BF with bespectacled Herculene Poiru XXchanging klues on solving the latest Death on the moving irno-horse. Yes, hearing the romantic wind and whistle blowing...

Until the next heartbeat stops -- another elegant daeth, some Princess travelling alONE from some difficult to [pronounce cunty nnamed Sveltlanafana or somethin'...:)
I luckily politely turned down an invite to dinner lust night with her, but I suspected her eyes were too penetrating. Could see through my soul, which when naked, is not all glory; Gore maypahs.
Desi could have even become a Poiru suspect myself!


Let's proceed with Whistle Blowing3:~~~~~~~



MAS LEADS WITH WHISTLEBLOWERR POLICY
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!

MALAYSIA AIRLINE SYSTEM (MAS) has set up a four-member panel to look into some 30 complaints from its employees fllowing the national carrier's move to implement a Whistleblower Policy early this year.

According to a report in theSUN, June 27, 2006 page 23,

MAS managing director Idris Jala said the good response from its employees on its whistleblower policy stemmed from confidence that the identity of the whistleblower would be kept confidential.
MAS instituted the policy under its business turnaround plan unveiled last February for employees to alert management of malpractices, irregularities and negligence affecting the national carrier.

Speaking at MAS’s AGM in Petaling Jaya on June 26, Idris said only its senior general manager (turnaround management office) Mohd Izani Ashari would know the whistleblower's identity and would then inform the panel without identifying the informant.

THINKING ALLOWED, maybe Pak Lah's appointee plugged out from Catsville, Idris Jala, will pioneer the way for the Government to follow suit.

This is comfort for some of my imPAtient EsteemedReaders like Howsy, Mave and Anak Merdeka -- why are they ganging UP on Desi? Is there a CONspiracy I don't know about?
Others, please tell desi before the Referee blows his Whsitle saying I'm persona non-gratIS in their www. It's alright, there is a price on everyman's head. Desi may jest join the Establishment. Just you wait!

Chew on these, mGf, if you're still so dumb demanding I speak out, I ain't no Whistle Blowing4:~~~~~~~~

It's from a less-Establishment -- here, I did not say 'established', okay! -- nu'espaper theSun, frontpage, May 22, 2006~~~~~~~

COVER FOR
WHISTLE
BLOWERS

'The public shouldn't be afraid to come forward
and lodge reports on corruption to the ACA.
The ACA can protect them.' - Najib

By Wan Hamidi Hamid
(whom I also have the privilege of sharing
some common work terratries!
BUT I WON'T WHISTLEBLOW6:)



SEREMBAN:Whistle blowers may receive protection soon.

DESIDERATA:

Pak Lah and Najib: Please make "soon" like within 6 to 12 months?
Not wait until General Elections 2008/09 comes around-lah!
Desi is a very PAtient man, having weaned and brought up THREE
Malaysian children now Y&A youths, I hope and pray.

But my EsteemedReaders like Mave SM, Howsy(Papa nyet?)
and Anak Merdeka, oh Helen too!
might not be as Patient because the latter two are Mama MIA,(I know:), not Papa Mah!

IMPORTANT NOTE: I have challenged da sisdar abiding @ALLofHelen.blogspot.com to write Desi a 300-word Essay on the Dr Mahathir-Pak Lah FaceOFF so I can respond with a five-fold Commentary. Gutsy lad', she also the policy on Monday, June 26, 2006, that "The Enemy of my Enemy Is my Friend". Luckily she roots for England so I'm on the same side, Sweets and Nicole notwithstanding. I really don't know the relevance of mentioning the lust two names. Soft spot for Da Losers from DU(h) who actually contributed for my B&B, some kaya thrown in, for 12-1/2 years. If you need to ask why or how, Get Out of the Field, "OUTSIDE! OUTSIDE!"
