Lama tak lihat, hari ini saya kembali menyaksikan Oma Irama di TV, bukan sebagai Jaka Swara atau Satria Bergitar (itu kategori "lama") tapi tampil secara live bersama Soneta Group. 

Memangnya ada yang aneh? Gak sih, berdasarkan standart lama.
Yes, it's possible, it's rare though, so you should be grateful if get it (like me), :)  

When the engine is cold 

Depress the accelerator fully and hold it.
"Walah kok tinggal tiga strip Nu”  “emang kenapa, tu masih sekitar lima belas liter kan”  “belok di pom Sengkaling depan atau di Pom tanjakan Batu, ada mbak petugas cantik yang enak diajak ngobrol”  “ah nanti saja Ar, toh si Astina ini masih bisa jalan seratus lima puluh kiloan, dari Malang sini tuh bisa nyampe ke Kediri lewat jalur mbulet Batu situ”  “kamu ini, memang apa salahnya isi bensin sekarang?”  “apa salahnya isi bensin nanti?”  “hehhh….”
Have you read The Staff of Serapis? 

It's Rick Riordan's another mini story beside Son of Sobek. 

This book's in Annabeth point of view telling her counter with Greek-Egypt hybrid god (not capital G mind you) Serapis.
After my iPad "coudnt charge" problems and finally grab a Lenovo A3000 for Alfa. I notice several things. Sure it have quad core processor and 2GB RAM. (my iPad 1st gen has single core and 256 RAM, my iPhone has dual core) Sure it behave faster than my sister in law's sluggish galaxy tab 3. Sure, it means I have to choose android over iOS with those specs advantage but...
Have you heard about Pipo and Elo? They're covering many of Dream Theater's song. So what? Many people cover Dream Theater. Ehm, they cover it using acoustic guitar, :) Incidentally, many songs they're covered is my Dream Theather's favorite song; Surrounded Regression,  Overture 1928, Strange Deja Vu, Home, The dance of Eternity, One Last Time, Spirit Carries On  ... You can listen their covers on https://soundcloud.com/pipoelo
“Huh, bikin emosi aja, bisa batal puasa nih”  “Kenapa Nu?”  “Mc D tuh”  “Ada apa dengan Mak Dayat?”  “Masak aku minta es teh dikasih kopi panas, lak emosi to, panas-panas gini lagi” “Walah, kamunya juga gak bener” “Lha kenapa Ar?”
Yup, I see that pattern this morning and a match before.

...
Another weird, yet not uncommon, race. 

With mass start from pitlane.
"Yes, jagoku menang" "loh, kok tahu?"  "di TPS tadi aku nunggu sampai selesai ngitung, dan menang, horee..." "oh, menang di TPS kita saja to?" "gak juga, sudah lihat berita di tipi? " "aku gak lihat tipi tadi sibuk nunggu Naruto terbaru"
Strange match

strange score

...and plenty of Chelsea player, :)
"Syukurlah, habis ini akan tenang kembali" "Tenang gimana?" "Ya tenang, gak ada lagi jago-jagoan, gak ada lagi musuhan di mana-mana. Sampai unfriend-unfriend-an di facebook, heheh..." "Yeah, memang hiruk pikuk saat ini sangat kelewatan. Segi positifnya, sekarang banyak yang aktif ambil bagian ketimbang yang dulu-dulu, prosentase keikutsertaannya meroket, menakjubkan"
You could do presentation using LaTeX you know, :) There’s class named Beamer It has some theme too, boadilla, goetingen, shadow, classic. I used several of ‘em several years ago but at now, influenced (or obsessed) by Steve Job’s Keynotes, I used the default theme, no slide or top or bottom navigation.  I don’t like the bullet style of “itemise" or plain number of “enumerate” though. So I do little tweak to get through this, actually just two lines on the beginning. I set it to became square style (yup, the number is inside square, :) ) I used it since 2008, introduced by Mas Ardhi at UGM.
Socmed semakin panas, Dua kubu makin aktif nge-junk (setidaknya bagi saya),  ...tanpa sadar lambat laun menjadi semakin pasif di socmed dan lebih sering menyendiri bertapa di blog, menekuni kembali trik-trik lama di LaTeX, posting hal-hal baru tentangnya, usil ngelantur tentang berbagai hal. Paradox: karena hasil tulisan di blog muncul di timeline socmed, maka seakan-akan jadi semakin aktif posting, :)
