Many of us men would shrivel at the idea of calling our wives, mothers or sisters "BITCH", but not this Greek Medusa who is very proud and think highly of her father's philandering ways and for calling her mother and other women "BITCH".
Obviously, a term of endearment in her household.
She wrote:
"Amateur philanderers like Bill Clinton, Elliot Spitzer, Tiger Woods, and Jesse James have reduced themselves, their wives, and their lovers to widespread ridicule. These men might take lessons from my father, who has been obliging eager women since he was old enough to walk, by being unapologetic and open about their fondness for the fairer sex. You can’t blame a man for cheating when he’s never been anything but forthcoming about his manhood".Read more here.

Taki (his surname is a mouthful), her father, a serial philanderer, whose webzine carry his namesake, is a bottled racist and anti-Semitic, been accused by the Guardian of using ethnic slurs, investigated by Scotland Yard for his racial comment but no charges was brought against him. He spent 3 months in a British jail for possession of cocaine. This racist fascist named his dog after another famous fascist, Benito.....?, if you are student of history you would know his full name.

I had the misfortune of crossing path with Mandolyna Theodoracopulos in cyberspace in December 2010 when she threatened to take legal action against me for posting on my blog from her magazine an article on Julian Assange, which I actually linked back to her website, but didn't realised the link was broken.
Upon receiving her threatening mail I immediately removed the article and tendered my apology. I would have done the same if she had asked me politely.
Would you call your wife a bitch?
In the Taki's household ? Yes!
Many a true word is spoken in jest!

Before I proceed further let's visit one very angry Malaysian here. His fury, a judgment pronounced by, no less, the President of the Court of Appeal on a rape case that have sent ripples across the nation.
Many of you, particularly, those in management or stakeholders in businesses, must have read the book "Peter Principle" by Dr Laurence Peters and Raymond Hull.
I read the book in the early seventies when I was still a young man just starting out in the business world. I had, in my later years, the opportunity to witness "Peter Principle" inherent in my own organisation. People getting promoted to their level of incompetence.
Out of their ubiquitous observation they have come to a conclusion that in almost every organisation "employees tend to rise to their level of incompetence"
How the judiciary promotes its judges and what criteria used I have no idea.
I will not question the judgement as there may be other factors and circumstances that we are not privy to.
However, the comment by the judge or ground for judgement is discomfiting to the layman.
Should a famous person be reprieved from punishment under the law? Was his age and his whole future the ground for such leniency?
Malaysia have had many statutory rape cases and many of those charged had been given long imprisonment.
Recently, squeaky clean Singapore had a child prostitution scandal that rocked the nation and shaken its political and economic elite. Paid sexual favours from a child prostitute by businessmen, bankers, civil servants and uniformed officers.
Among those charged was prominent Singapore socialite Howard Shaw, the grandson of Runme Shaw who was 41 and had 2 daughters from his previous marriage when the crime was committed, the girl was under 18. Actually she was 5 months short of her legal age.
It would be considerable feat to tell the difference between 17 years 7 months old and an 18-year old.
Howard Shaw was given 3 months sentence but is out on bail pending appeal. Story here.
The Singapore case may not be exactly the same as the Noor Afizal's case. He committed the crime when he was 18 and the girl 13. Malaysia's age of consent for sex is 16.
Has the judge erred in his judgement ?
Well, if I am not wrong the prosecution can still appeal to the Federal Court.
Read here one very angry woman, always angry with the government and the judiciary.

Some Malaysians can laugh at this unpalatable satire if one wish to call it one but satire it is not.
It's political muck-racking and libel of the worst kind. False, malicious and done in very bad taste.
Zunar thinks he is smart by changing the names and characters. The whole world knew who he was referring to in his malicious animated cartoon.
I am sure many Malaysians are outraged by this man overzealousness to serve his political masters.
This slam-bang cartoon may have the opposite effect, help Najib gains more sympathy and help him to get into more trouble, if Najib and Rosmah decide to pursue a legal course.
Obviously, Zunar's head has swelled after his partial victory in court.
He should not put himself in the same mould as Western cartoonists, who are impartial, balanced and professionally driven while he is unprofessional and biased.
His bad satires are only confined to attacking the PM and other government leaders in BN.
Aren't Pakatan Rakyat running 4 state governments? Are they so perfect that he could not find any fault with them?
One should ask him why his works is one-sided, attacked only Najib and the BN government and have never attacked Anwar Ibrahim and the opposition?
Read here what he said about cartoonists in Malaysia, portrayed himself as the hero in Malaysia's cartoon fraternity.
Lat, is a better cartoonist, more humorous in his caricatures and satires compared to his crude and unamused political lampoons. He has not been given due recognition by the cartoonists' world as they have given Lat.
A friend came to visit me sometime last year and gave me a copy of his cartoon book which, not to offend my friend, I kept it for a while.It is now somewhere in the rubbish dump.
I don't find his cartoons funny at all.

The world was shocked by the murder of six people after a gunman stormed a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin on Aug. 5, opening fire on those gathered for morning services before falling to a policeman's bullet. But religious persecution is sadly, nothing new for Sikhs. The confusion and anger over the incident recall earlier chapters in the religion's history, when adherents of the 500-year-old faith found themselves in bloody skirmishes with Hindus and Muslims in India, the birthplace of Sikhism and home to the majority of its practitioners.
Sikhs, who comprise about 2 percent of India's population and form the world's fifth-largest religion, have in many ways been integrated into Indian culture, a point that was driven home by the 2004 election of Prime Minister Monoman Singh, the first Sikh to hold India's most powerful office. But adherents have traveled a bloody road to acceptance: After the 1984 siege of the holy Golden Temple by Sikh separatists and the assassination of Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi at the hands of her Sikh bodyguards the same year, India saw waves of retaliatory anti-Sikh riots, including a siege of one of the holiest Sikh temples. In a virtual pogrom that torched Sikh homes, storefronts, and temples across the capital New Delhi, mobs killed almost 3,000 people. Many Sikhs fled to the United States. Once again, they have faced persecution, including incidents of violence and a spate of hate crimes, sometimes after being misidentified as Muslims in the wake of the 9/11 attacks.Read more.
