THE POTLUCK PARTY THAT NEVER WAS.

I just hate people who bark. In fact I hate people who impersonate dogs and bark at us. But I was not going to allow this infantile bahavior of the cops to spoil the night that we had planned with our weekly vigil aficionados. As it naturally happened the celebrations spilled over to the Wharf.

This morning at 10:21am I did a posting. It was an awfully angry posting. Full of rage. I have always been reminded that we should count to 100 before doing anything when angry. I just finished counting. The clock says it is 11:33pm. I deleted the post just now and replaced it with this not-so-angry posting.

ONLY DOGS ARE ALLOWED TO BARK.

IT IS IN THEIR NATURE TO BARK.


THEY BARK TO PROTECT THEIR OWNERS.

DOGS ARE DUTY-BOUND TO BARK

IF YOU ARE NOT A DOG, YOU DO NOT BARK.


IF YOU ARE NOT A DOG (unless you choose to be) YOU ARE NOT DUTY=BOUND TO BARK

IT IS NOT A NATURAL ACT FOR MAN TO BARK.


GOD GAVE MEN THE GIFT OF SPEECH

WHICH HE DOES NOT BEQUEATH TO DOGS OR ANIMALS.
ALTHOUGH SOME BIRD-DOGS DO BARK

IF MEN, GIVEN THIS FACULTY THAT GOD DOES NOT ENDOW ON DOGS,

REFUSE TO SPEAK AND INSTEAD BARK,


THEN HE CHOOSES TO BE A DOG!

SO BE IT.

HE IS A RABID DOG!

ONE DAY, YES ONE DAY

WE WILL DE-BARK THIS DOG.


I will borrow Lita's parting shot to end this posting::

We may
give in,
give out,
or give way
but we will not give up!



SEE YOU PEOPLE NEXT SUNDAY, HOKAY?

+++++

Hey, NIGHTCALLER, it was great of you to come meet me on Victory Night and allowed me to hug you. It was sad you couldn't stay even for a cup of coffee. I know you wanted to render assistance to the 100 of your comrades that were arrested.

Good night, nightcaller, wherever you are.

For other takes go to

SANJIUN (in Mandarin)

  1. Zorro, I know dogs have traditionally been programmed to bark at strangers & strange movements at night. For my part I've been patiently deprogramming my mutts to NOT bark & never to bite! I feed them well & they're all my buddies & they DO NOT HAVE TO EARN THEIR KEEP! This OCPD Junaidi fler who reportedly BARKED at all the good folks who came laden with goodies should be sent to me for rehab. I'll deprogram him in two days & send the bill to the Potatohead Gestapoman.

  2. Antares, Junaidi actually could only yelp. As such he had to use a loud-hailer. It was another of his puppies who barked at us. This post was meant for him.....anyway, when Lita and I finally get them...you will have the pleasure of rehabilitating them....but take your time though...we are currently fine-tuning our debriefing mechanism.

  3. Antares....I hope your rehabilation does not result in neutering your subject(s) should they remain recalcitrant. I hope you employ my hint.

  4. Demodectic Mange infection could also cause them to whine thru a loud-hailer. A topical dip of 'Mitaban' or an injection of 'Ivermectin' would be sufficient to treat mans-best-friend. But we're not talking about domesticated canine here are we? We're talking about two legged pricks with infested nuts who thinks they have three becos of the gun they carry and a dog tag that says 'Tak rasuah susah'.

    The veterinary profession have yet to discover a treatment for Parasitic Demon-dectic Maim, but I suggest dick-docking as a viable alternative. Am.Cockers, Mini.Schnauzers and Silky Terriers have tails docked rather short. But for those loud-hailer morons, only the Rottweiler and Corgi standard would suffice. Muhyiddin said we've lost the 'Wow' factor becos they lost KT. He should attend one of the candlelight vigil incognito to see how many 'wow wow' kurap we have. By the way, that does not include the ballocks licking breed from the Malaysian Canine Association with a slogan that says 'Ta-kut To Change, Creating NO Values' Dock them a little bit more and we create a new breed- The Cojones Retrivers.

    Got another two bottles (duty free of course) of Balvenie to bring back next trip (soon I hope).

    BTW, they don't call them Mutts for nothing. You have to remember that if they had brains, they won't end up as cops and they may actually be dangerous.

    Well done on the KT campaign trail. Wished I was there but I followed the BR updates (on the 17th) every single minute to the final result. I am surprised you didn't hear our shouts of elation. Our neighbours did and thought we have gone loco.

  6. Did anyone invite the dogs to eat together? If based on the standard dog culture in Malaysia, usually that's the common thing to do and the dog will stop barking and indeed guard the party from cats. :-)

  9. Hai zorro, you don't know me and I don't know you but I know how it feels when someone messed up your party. Being married to a wife who have several brothers and sisters in the police force, I cringe every time I read this kind of behaviour. When put forward to them, their answer was always in the matter of "them against us" kind of thing. I know what is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. I'm not trying to defend them, not at all. They have their job to do and we have ours. 50 years of brainwashing done to them is not going to disappear in one day.
    What I would like to suggest is this, remember the old vietnam war days when the hippies got confronted by the armed people and they planted a rose into the rifle's barrel? Why not try giving this Junaidi fler a bunch of roses every time he barks and lets see if his attitude changes, if not you and I know he's a confirmed K9. Trainers should take over.

  10. The Eunuch lost his balls
    Down the steps long ago
    Drilling into his head
    Of over decades

    Simple public relations
    The police no way to know
    It is only the might
    Shooting fear into the innocents

    On the wall of police stations
    The charter telling the public
    Come to the reality
    It never happens

    It is only those they know
    You can see the public relations work
    I knew I had been there before
    No red tape no border line

    Why police afraid of the night vigils?
    We aren’t robbers, kidnappers, thieves and murderers
    We are just a peaceful people airing our concerned
    About the affairs of the country
    This the police can’t differentiate
    They only know how to bark
    Yet the criminals they don’t go after them

  14. Aiyah Bernard,

    we'll have to miss this Vigil because of the reunion dinner! As they say, Chinese cannot be trustedlah.
    But we'll be there on Thursday 2 pm when the taxpayer-sponsored BN agencies AG and PDRM want to charge our fellow vigilers.
