Intolerable Motorcycle Acts
July 7, 2007
Okay, I admitted, sometimes (emphasize on the word “sometimes” here) I answered my cell phone when I’m driving. Yes, I’m aware that this was a sinful thing, and yes, the remorse is still there. No, I’m not proud of it, but sometimes, I have to pickup the phone when it’s categorized as an important call.
However, answering your cell phones when driving a frickin motorbike now that’s just intolerable! I found this very often nowadays in Jakarta. With all those motorbike chaotic driving that I despise very much, yet they still practicing this ridiculous cellphone stunt.
Now when I thought I have seen the entire senseless act by those motor drivers, last Tuesday I encounter the most intolerable act of motor driving! They now capable of text messaging with a cell phone while riding one-handed! That’s just… oh God I can’t explain it with words anymore…
Please oh please Mr. Motor driver sir, what it is with the decision to pull up your motorcycle, stop and doing you’re text messaging safely on the side of the road?? Do you so preciously care about every second that you spend so you can’t have a little time to stop for a while? Because I don’t care about your life now, but I still care about other road users, especially the life of pedestrians that could be in peril because of your imbecile act?? Please Mr. Motor driver sir…considers my rant here…please…

Okay, life must go on, right? So with the spirit of Sumpah Pemuda and the recent festive of Pesta Blogger 2007. I officially announce that:
It's just around the corner, not very far away.
The reason? Well you can say that I'm getting bored with Wordpress and I want to try something new. But trust me, I won't move it anywhere else in the future, I will use patvandiest.com as my main blog, always. I promise you that!
So please... please update your bookmark, I will forever graceful if you do that. But if you are reading my blog through my Feedburner account, worry not, I will automatically update the link. That goes to my other social networking related link.
I won't delete this blog, though. I will keep it as past archives of my writings.
So, sorry for this inconvinience. I hope you don't mind. See you at my other room.
Sincerely Yours,
Patrick Gerard van Diest
