Or even a third?
Lately, I have lessened my socio-political writes; was hoping for THAT PERFECT STORM WHICH will end at least some 52% of Malaysian voters' (going by GE13 results)misery. For those 48 % who voted BN/UMNO incessantly despite all their gripes, rantings and cursings, Desi says: CONGRATS! you are rewarded with BRibe1Malaysia being upped from RM500 to RM950. YOu are now anticipating for GE14's raise to RM1,500 eh?
BUt these IGNORAMU(as)SES can't see the forest for the durian runtuh trees -- costs of living since GST APril 1, 2015 have risen for an household by RM2,000 for couple with 2 children to RM4,000 for family with 4 or more dependants. SO the BRIM recipetnts suffer a nett loss of RM2000-950=RM1,050 to RM4,000-950=RM3,050 -- frankly, I PITY YOU< YOu aRsEk FOR IT!
Today is WEDNESDAY, and a childe born this dae is a CHILDE OF WOE> BUt I Wanna to lessen thy woes.
LEt's do some ESCAPADES into movieland, cun?
Yes, I have been watching a SUNDANCE production, "RECTIFY", MARAthon of SEason 1 (six episodes of 1hour each) lust SAturday from 7PM; repeat of SEASON @ lusting 10hours, and Did I tell you knot DESi was trying toabsorb creative juices to continue his BLOGBuster novel, with deadline next FEbruary, and I am into only Chapter 3! SEason 3 will screen starting this Thursday (TOMORROW) -- you lazy BUMMER, please check the time OK!)
I Believe there's some sort of DEJA VU for viewers if one can identify with any of the myriad of characters in the long story line -- I catch glimpses of myself, composite maybe, in soem of the FICTIONAL PEOple! AUThors, movie makers, producers often diisplay an ending creedit that CHAracters are all fictional, and any resemblance to person/s alive is just CONCIDENTAL. But...methinks they MISASLEad us, scared we the samrlalecks may SUE THEM FOR RM@.6million for borrowing our characteristics! DESi won't be so greedy suing for RM@.6BILLION; hey, 2.6million, even in RUpiah, will do lah for a short holiday a broad.
The protagonist in RECTIFY is released from PRison after serving 18years on alleged rape-and-murder of a girl he and some buddies from the small town went for an outing. Because of New techonology enabling DNA Testing, the villlian is acquitted because the DNA Found on the victim's belonged to another man. Villain-now-released back into society faces many challenges because while society has moved on 18 years, for the prisoner TIME has STOOD STILL.
I used "deja vu" because to many of us, especially writers stuck at some CROSSROADS not making sense, IT IS DEJA VU feelings rushing in all over again ...YOu hear me? YOu feel DESi?...
Ofttimes, you see it in movies -- LOVE at First Sight, it's that Deja Vu explanation, how two individuals meeting the first time feel they have met each other, in fact, have had that strange "familiar, forgotten feelings" that Tom JOnes sings about, no?
You begin to wonder: Have I been here before, in my previous life, as a runaway emigrant in a foreign land? OR as a tycoon who could afford to fly in my own EXecutive Jet with a my wife (even my mistresses when Wifey is knot looking!?), and because of my "waywardlife" I am now relegated to suffer as a churchmousey writHer?
YOu hear me? YOu tell DEsi!

Daniel Holden, met by his lawyer Jon Stern, mother Janet, sister Amantha, stepfather Ted, Sr., stepbrother Ted, Jr. ("Teddy"), and Teddy's wife Tawney, leaves a Georgia prison after serving 19 years on death row. New DNA evidence implies that 18-year-old Daniel was either not responsible or not solely responsible for the rape and murder of his 16-year-old girlfriend Hanna, as had been alleged during his trial. State Senator Roland Foulkes, who prosecuted the case, says Daniel hasn't been exonerated and will still be pursued by the law; Foulkes recalls that two witnesses, George and Trey, both testified that they saw Daniel placing flowers atop Hanna's body. Amantha drives Daniel around town, and their younger half-brother Jared tries to bond with Daniel by watching Dazed and Confused with him. A flashback introduces Kerwin, a death row inmate in the cell next to Daniel's. The two inmates had developed a friendship though they could hear but not see one another. Trey and George meet by a river and have a cryptic conversation. After Trey leaves, George shoots himself in the head.

Daniel retreats to the attic, where he finds his father's hunting gear, as well as his own walkman and an old mixed tape from Hanna. He later goes to a hybrid skateboard/BMX park with Jared, his half brother. Amantha is in a bar drinking with Jon when a man asks if Daniel is going to live at home; she says she doesn't know.

At a seminar out of town, a buddy talks to Teddy about getting out of the nickel and dime tire business and doing government contract work.

After his baptism, Daniel speaks somewhat incoherently to Tawney about the "goat man" incident before inappropriately asking her if he can kiss her. Teddy confronts Daniel that night at the tire store about coming on to his wife, and tells him to stay away from the both of them. Following Teddy's insulting Daniel under his breath, Daniel suddenly appears behind him and puts him in a chokehold until he passes out.
6 6 "Jacob's Ladder" Ray McKinnon Ray McKinnon May 20, 2013

Daniel goes to Amantha's house and asks if they can go to the pecan grove where they used to go with their father. When they arrive, it is shown to be the same area the "goat man" took Daniel to, only there is a different statue there. Daniel admits to Amantha that he does not know what happened the day Hanna died. Daniel's sister tells him he was high on mushrooms at the time of the incident. Trey finds George's body by the river. He takes George's belongings, including George's gun, wallet, and cellphone, and pushes the corpse into the river. A flashback to Daniel's time in prison shows Kerwin getting picked up for his death sentence. Kerwin tells Daniel he knows Daniel didn't kill Hanna. Daniel visits Hanna's grave while listening to the mixtape she made him. Two cars pull up behind him, and several men get out. They beat Daniel, and the leader removes his mask, revealing himself to be Bobby Dean, Hanna's brother. Bobby urinates on Daniel, and the men leave. Later, a barely conscious Daniel is loaded into an ambulance. The season ends with a flashback to Daniel pacing his jail cell, then sitting and curling into the fetal position on his bed while he hears the sounds of Kerwin's empty jail cell next to his being cleaned and made ready for its next occupant.

Time
I've been passing time watching trains go by
All of my life
Lying on the sand, watching seabirds fly
Wishing there would be
Someone waiting home for me
Something's telling me it might be you
It's telling me it might be you
All of my life
Looking back as lovers go walking past
All of my life
Wondering how they met and what makes it last
If I found the place
Would I recognise the face
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah it's telling me it might be you
So many quiet walks to take
So many dreams to wake
And we've so much love to make
Oh, I think we've gonna need some time
Maybe all we need is time
And it's telling me it might be you
All of my life
I've been saving love songs and lullabies
And there're so much more
No one's ever heard before
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it must be you
And I'm feeling it'll just be you
All of my life
May be it's you (it's you)
May be it's you (it's you)
I've been waiting for all of my life
