Greatest Stars Fallen - Michael Jackson & Farrah Fawcett

News broke out on the death of Farrah Fawcett, followed by Michael Jackson. Particularly significant right after Michael's; internet traffics peaked in an unprecedented manner that brought down many news and social sites...people from the whole world raced to get a piece of the latest news, write their reactions, download photos and songs, etc. It was explosive, and analysts anticipated the trend will continue for few days to a week, though internet traffics "almost" back to normal.

Fans around the world mourn the lost of the great superstars, as Farrah and Michael may have touched their lives in many ways. Both of them redefined the trends in entertainment industry.

Tribute to Farrah and Michael!!

In Memory - Sam's on Yonge and Dundas

It was among the landmarks along Yonge Street in Toronto, not too far from the Eatons Center. This Sam store is famous for carrying virtually every available records that you would like to have but probably not able to get it elsewhere. For those who hunt for classic releases, will probably have better luck find them hiding at one corner in Sam-the-Recod-Man. If not, one can even request a special order from its friendly staff, who did well in helping their clients.

We used to frequent the shop few times a quater for new albums and singles. I found the "Delta Force" original sound tracks here as everywhere seemed to have shortage of supply. Whenever walking past the shop, wouldn't miss the chance to pop in for a quick look-around.

It was sad to see the shop closed down for good 2 years ago. It's a legacy. I was told that it maintains a branch open in Belleville, though???!

Little Prince Charming

The youngest of the siblings has his temper. Adorable most of the times, he demands things be back to its' original form and be placed or organized accordingly. It's probably a good behavior while it's amazing to have demonstrated by a two-year old.

The little prince charming would take a bottle of milk upon waking up in the morning, usually around 7am. Then he would join the sister for breakfast at 8am for a small cup of hot-choc, sometimes with biscuits, breads, or half-boiled egg. Not to forget, that he loves the Indian delicacy - "roti canai" too.

Surprisingly, he likes to drink "Chinese tea" since he was one-year old. He will not miss it whenever he sees us enjoying tea session (as we are learning the culture)...and he's serious about it.

He is now learning agressively to speak and able to utter meaningful words.

In Memory - CN Tower

CN Tower (Canadian National Tower) is a 550-meter tall structure situated by Lake Ontario, nearby the stadium that houses BlueJays.

Look carefully from the ground up, you will discover a minor twist on the building structure that many said was due to earth rotation impact during construction.

On the top deck, the Tower houses many broadcasting and communication entries, televisions and radios inclusive.

The skypod includes a floor for visitors to enjoy panoramic views of the skyline and a glass floor that can see through the ground. There is a disco entertainment claimed to be the highest disco club in the world.


Talk about disco, here's couple of treats on 80's popular songs:

Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up
Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams

Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls

Madonna - Into the groove
