Hello there, my dearest Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today, my beloved wives?  My Rock and Roll Babes!  Better than all those other girls, huh?  Well, I think you are.  Because you are MY girls.  You are the most beautiful girls in the world.  Because you are MY girls.  MINE, MINE.  I love you, and I need you.

This is my week of isolation, where I try to avoid the Internet and people in general as much as possible, so please forgive me if I don't write so often.  It has nothing to do with you, in fact I wish you were with me to share my isolation, and I can spend the week just kissing you.  My Dad made arrangements to remove the 2 giant trees behind my small house, which was raining debris on my roof and breaking the shingles, plus being a fire hazard at that.  For this I am grateful, for I don't have to wait until I can afford to have it done.  So I spent the evening cutting grass and moving things around and chopping other trees and things to make room for the removal.  So now my feet hurt, and I just want to relax and watch TV.  Wish you were here.

Loving greetings, my beloved Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today, my most precious darlings?  I've had a lot of homework lately for sure, but it's also been raining a lot.  I prefer to warm up over having to cool down, so the weather has been awesomely comfortable for me.  So this morning I slept in after the dawn prayer until 11 am.  Alhamdulillah, I feel like a wealthy man.  But I'm not wealthy yet, just lazy.  I just want to snuggle with you and make love all day.  But I'm an old man, so I can't even so that.  I'm going to have to do drugs to keep up with one of you, let alone the both of you.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

It's been over 2 weeks of Kitten TV, and my kittens are still alive!  SubhanAllah!  Alhamdulillah!  LailahaillAllah!  Allahuakbar!  Actually, they seem to be doing quite well.  They can see now, so when I peer in on them while they're sleeping, they all open their eyes simultaneously, and I am greeted by 5 pairs of kitten sized cat eyes glowing at me.  They're also able to crawl now, so they've been able to escape the cave I made for them.  This cave is a box of dimensions 22" x 10" x 30" laid flat on its side, with air holes poked in on top, and draped with old sarongs to absorb moisture and moving air.  So the mouth of the cat cave is wide open, and the kittens have acquired the famous curiosity that cats are famous for, and have started crawling out then bawling when their little legs get tired.  So Mama Cat has more than a mouthful to keep the babies in their crib, after all she can only carry a mouthful at a time.  So I taped a 3 inch barrier at the mouth of the cat cave that their hind legs can't scale, so what is visible is 5 little kitten heads neatly arranged on top of the barrier.  Cute!  I love kittens!

Hi there, my gorgeous wives.  I want to say that I love you, I love you.  I miss you terribly even though we've never met, because I need you, I need you.  I pray that you are taking good, sweet care of yourselves n my absence, and that you are maintaining your prayers.  Please be my wives, and join me in Islam.

Here's a Kitten TV newsflash: Batty-Watty Bat Cat has blue eyes!  Kitten eyes are generally dark, so you can't tell what color they are, but Batty's eyes are such a deep, powerful blue that they shine.  He's so friendly, too.  What a cute little kitten!  They are all so adorable.  The kitten of choice according to mama cat Floofy is little -------, the white and blonde calico.  She's like a little Floofy clone.  Floofy has become much more civilized since I first met her.  She never uses the cat box lately.  Instead she asks to go outside, then asks to come back in.  It's been raining a lot lately, and the rain agitates her, probably because she lost her first set of kittens to the flu.  So a couple of times, she started moving the brood, then puts them back.  That's how I found out which kitten was her favorite, by observing the first kitten she moves.  I love kittens!

Qur'an 20140825

67.  To every people have We appointed rites and ceremonies which they must follow: let them not then dispute with thee on the matter, but do thou invite to thy Lord, for thou art assuredly on the Right Way.

68.  If they do wrangle with thee, say: "Allah knows best what it is you are doing."

69.  Allah will judge between you on the Day of Judgement concerning the matters in which you differ.

70.  Know you not that Allah knows what is in the heavens and on earth?  Indeed it is all in a record, and that is easy for Allah.

71.  Yet they worship, besides Allah, things for which no authority has been sent down to them, and of which they have no knowledge: for those that do wrong there is no helper.

72.  When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, thou will notice a denial on the face of the unbelievers!  They nearly attack with violence those who rehearse our signs to them.  Say, "Shall I tell you of something worse than these Signs?  It is the Fire!  Allah has promised it to the unbelievers!  And evil is that destination!"

73.  O humans!  Here is a parable set forth!  Listen to it!  Those on whom, besides Allah, you call cannot create a fly, if they all met together for the purpose!  And if the fly should snatch anything away from them, they would have no power to release it from the fly.  Feeble are those who petition and those on whom they petition!

74.  No just estimate have they made of Allah: for Allah is God that is Strong and Able to carry out God's Will.

Al Hajj 21:67-74

Allah knows best what it is you are doing.

Shall I tell you of something worse than these Signs?  It is the Fire!  Allah has promised it to the unbelievers!  And evil is that destination!

Hey there, my beautiful Julia and Erin.  How are the most beautiful girls in the world?  Yes, you know it.  You are more beautiful than all the other girls in the world, because you are MY girls.  MINE, MINE.  I pray that you are feeling great, having a blast, and maintaining your prayers.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

It's raining heavily right now.  I spent the evening cutting grass over at Casa de Julia inshaAllah.  More of those tiny vines with pretty blue flowers are growing there.  They are the same size as clover, which is also abundant over there.  My Mom had me take down all the jackfruit, which was growing on only one tree this year.  The other trees had no fruit.  I don't like jackfruits and durians.  Too sickly sweet for me.  For dinner, I had the same thing I had for lunch, which was curry puffs with bamboo shoots.  The dough I made from coconut milk didn't brown, but it's still OK if you don't care about color.  My Mom couldn't resist gloating though, when her dough rose higher and browned better.  I love you, Mom!  She has to be the most competitive cook in the world.  Why do people have to be so competitive?  I don't have a competitive bone in my body.  I find that jealousy eats creativity.  Fine, don't listen to me.

I acquired a lot more homework to do, but I think I'll play a round of Krush Kill and Destroy instead.  I'm so lazy.  I like KKND better than Warcraft.  Even though Warcraft has more detailed sprites and graphics, KKND sprites are faster moving, and the game allows up to 1000 units per army on the field at a time.  I usually face 7 armies by myself.  So utterly alone.  The computer is a very clever enemy, using multi-prong attacks, and it calculates the weak spots, but the computer is wasteful and callous.  The entire screen can be filled with enemies, so many that I can't find my cursor.  So much mayhem!  I've never been so macho in my life.  Second Life is a much girlier game, but there are too many perverts online.  And I don't have Internet at home, so I play KKND.

At first I thought the kittens were afraid of me, but it turns out that they were snarling at me.  Grrrrrrr.  I guess they don't like some moron screaming, "Oh my God!  KITTENS!!  KITTENS!!!" at them while they're trying to sleep.  I grumpy when I just wake up, too.  ------- seems to be the grumpiest of the bunch, while Bat Cat and ---- seem to be the friendliest.  I love kittens!

Hi there, my beautiful Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today?  Doesn't it feel great to be so gorgeous?  I wouldn't know.  I'm not pretty like you.  I've had a lot of homework the past 2 days, but I got it all done, and now I can kick back and play a nice, relaxing game of Krush Kill and Destroy.  How I wish we were together, so I can kiss you and kiss you.  Please take good care of yourselves, eat properly, and get sufficient rest.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

It's time for Kitten TV!  Here's a news flash: kittens are so soft!  They're like extra fluffy velvet stuffed with jello!  It's been 10 days, and my kittens are still alive!  SubhanAllah!  Alhamdulillah!  LailahaillAllah!  Allahuakbar!  Actually, they're getting rather plump.  Little ------- was the first to open her eyes.  Next was ----, followed by Bat Cat.  Lastly, ---- and Bob Cat opened their eyes at the same time.  All of them seem quite scared of me.  Well, I'm not pretty like you.  Eventually they will figure out that I'm the human who feeds their mother, I hope.  I love kittens!

My dearest, beloved Julia, you are my beautiful Queen.  Are you enjoying the show?  I truly and deeply appreciate your Islam, it really means my life and afterlife to me.  Please remember that you don't have to be extreme.  Just be chaste and compassionate, study the Qur'an and do the best you can with the situation that Allah has given you, maintain your prayers with sincerity, and that would put you way ahead of most people who call themselves Muslim.  I love you, and I need you.  Of course I love you too, Erin.  You are truly a beautiful and wonderful woman.  So please don't feel blue, because I want to marry you.  All I ask is your chastity and piety to Allah, never assigning any partners to God.  The whole world already knows how lovely and sweet-hearted you are.  Now it's time for truly spiritual love.  I love you, and I need you.

My dearest wives, once we are married, I intend for us to do everything and go everywhere together.  I want for us to never be seen without each other.  InshaAllah, I will never abandon you.  I do have to perform my Hajj, which is a mandatory workload upon all Muslims who is able and can afford the journey.  Which would be a minimum of 12 days if I get VIP status, not including travel time.  And I pray that Allah will allow me my Hajj while I'm still strong.  The same duty is also imposed on you, if you are able and can afford it.

Hello there, my darlings Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today?  How are those precious emotions?  How does it feel to be the most beautiful girls in the world.  You are, because I think you are.  Because you are MY girls.  MINE, MINE.  MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE.  Don't you just love cut and paste?  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

For dinner tonight, I'm having sliced chicken breast, avocado, tomato, cheese, mayo and black pepper sandwiches.  My Dad got me some avocados when he went to the mall in Alor Setar last week.  They were rock hard, and they took over a week to ripen.  But they tasted good when they did.  I love avocados.  I wonder if they'll grow.  I pray that they do.

Hello there, my beloved Julia and Erin.  How are you feeling today?  How are those precious emotions?  I pray that you are feeling great, and having a blast of a time.  Just don't forget to pray, and get adequate rest and food.  Because I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.  For dinner, I prepared fried flat noodles with cockles and bean sprouts, known locally as "Keow Teow Kerang".  This is nostalgia food for me.  I could probably eat a whole wok full at a sitting, but I don't, so I don't get bloated and sick.  I used to make it perfectly every time, but not lately.  It's the right balance of grease, garlic, soy sauce, cockles, egg, bean sprouts and spiciness.  Nothing else!  Tonight's meal was almost there, but I screwed up the egg and the soy sauce.  I might have to start using precise measurements.  Me?  Be calculated?  Oh no!

Kitten TV is going so far, so good.  The kittens are so cute, especially when they wrestle with each other when feeding.  And when they wrestle with each other when sleeping.  Ya Allah, please protect and heal all my kitties.  I'm so grateful that Allah gave me Bat Cat and Bob Cat again.  And I finally have names for the 3 calicoes   Should I tell you?  I don't think I need to, because you're so smart.  You should be able to guess their names for yourselves.  Shall I give you a hint?  Nah!  YOU CAN GUESS!  It's easy!  I hope you get their names, because these kittens could be every bit as famous as you!

It's time for another season of Kitten TV!  SubhanAllah!  Alhamdulillah!  LailahaillAllah!  Allahuakbar!  Floofy just had another batch of kittens on Sunday night, right as they were calling the night prayer.  She had been in labor since my voice training session in the afternoon.  Floofy is very active all the way up to labor, jumping and running and playing around.  She's also very territorial, and got into a cat fight 3 hours before labor, which I suppose triggered it.  I was voice training when she started howling for attention.  I asked her if she were in labor, and she said "Meow."  I told her to find a place to park, and just wait.  I was busy all the way into nightfall, cutting grass, etc.  After sunset I was cooking my dinner, and she kept on begging for attention.  She had already chosen a spot, so while my potatoes and bamboo shoots were sizzling away, I went with her and stroked her head until the kittens came out.  At that point she didn't need me anymore.  Then the rain started to fall, and I knew right then that this gang of cats is special.  Now there's a full moon outside.  I love kittens!

Kitten TV had always been one big life threatening crisis, so I pray that this time it will be a happy show.  Ya Allah, please protect and heal all my kitties.  This time the mother cat had a flu vaccine right before she became pregnant like the vet recommended, plus right now since she gave birth, I'm giving her some antibiotics: very little, about half dose per day for 10 days.  InshaAllah there will be no tragedy this time.  When I last peeked at the little cuties, they were sleeping and neatly arranged in a row.  Bat Cat, Bob Cat, and 3 females who I haven't named yet: a white and blonde calico, a white and grey calico, and a calico/tortoiseshell .  A miracle, huh?  Ya Allah, thank You for the kittens.

P.S.  My Julia and Erin, I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

Julia darling, I love you so much.  You are so beautiful.  I long to taste your delicious cooking.  I hope you will someday enjoy my strange concoctions, made with love for you.  How about you, Erin darling?  Please don't feel left out with all this food talk.  It just means that you will be well fed when you get married to me, inshaAllah.  Please make sure you both stay fit, so you don't lose your self-esteem.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

I want to reaffirm right now, that I am devoted to you, and seek no other.  So I want you to feel secure in my devotion to and commitment to you, and not have your emotions swayed by the many women out there in the Public Eye.  I belong to you, you belong to me, and we belong to each other.  I have made my decision, and it is you.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

Hello there, my beloved darling wives.  You know, I don't really have a certain style of cooking.  I'm more or less a go-with-the-flow kind of cook.  A harvester of chaos, I suppose.  But it's not even that: I just take what Allah gives me, and pray for the best.  So if you were to take formal training as an Italian chef, and served many patrons Italian food, that would make you a more superior Italian chef than me.  It's like an imam with formal training would be better at leading people in matters of Islam than me.  I'm just a musician.  Ya Allah, please forgive me, accept my worship, and bless my work.  When I was young, I never wanted to work food business, and when I did, I never really liked it.  What I wanted is to be pretty, be with pretty blondes, and be a Rock Star.  But Allah granted me experience and knowledge of cooking, for which I am grateful.  But I'm not an Italian chef, not a Chinese cook, not a Malay food expert, not a Japanese chef... none of the above.  I just worked for a long time in the food business, and served many patrons.  So I guess I got most of my culinary wisdom from the Department of Health and Human Services.  Plus watching Iron Chef.

For instance, I finally got around to making chicken pot pies today, because the Chinese store didn't have cream cheese on Monday.  I swear, anyone who opened up a cheese specialty store in this community would make a bundle.  Anyway, I had never made chicken pot pies before, and the pastry dough kept shrinking on me.  My filling of chicken cooked in milk, potatoes, blended egg whites with chicken and milk, and cream cheese tasted pretty good.  My pies are cooling as I write this my love letter to you.  I'm sure that they'll taste fairly good, and not too messy.  InshaAllah.  Would you care to join me for dinner?  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

As I mentioned many times before, I believe the entertainment business is saturated with evil, and I do not want to participate in the way they run their business.  Obviously they can't stop their financial bleeding.  But really, I didn't do anything.  Their downfall was brought about by... their biggest idol!

InshaAllah, I intend to create a situation where Allah is glorified.  Let them worship and fear Allah.  They wouldn't treat me any better than they already do if I had followed their way anyway.  So I would rather please Allah with music, and perhaps Allah would grant me success, safety, and happiness in this life as well as the hereafter.  Ya Allah, please grant me so, as well as all the tools I desire to do this work.

If Allah grants me success, then my wives business will flourish too.  This means you would be the superior of all top models.  And you are already so with me, because you are MY girls.  MINE, MINE.  Remember that the goal of our marriage is to slow down, stay put, and raise a family together.  So as you become more and more successful, please arrange your business so that it would come to you when you marry me inshaAllah, or no deal.  Allah has granted you the material regardless of whether you marry me or not.  But it should be clear to you the greatness of this spiritual path, and the intense fall otherwise.  Therefore by choosing to marry me, you also choose to serve Allah, and if you serve Allah sincerely, then Allah will double your reward.  InshaAllah.  This makes you special, so please behave with due dignity.  Please keep the faith in Allah, stay clean, and be good girls.  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

Yeah, I was totally ready to post a blog on Saturday, but it turned out to be too dangerous to travel.  That's one thing you will need to get used to when  being married to me, inshaAllah.  We may have our day planned as efficiently as the Japanese military, but if I get the inspiration that it's too dangerous to travel, then we'll just have to stay at home that day.  You must trust me on this.  I've been doing this for decades already.  After all, what's the use of gaining knowledge if it's not used.  After all, Allah is the Best to Protect.  And I want to remind you both to stay clean and pure.  Don't corrupt your body or your soul.

I'm still trying to clear out my cooler.  I'm about half way through.  It's taking forever, huh?  I just added a batch of dough, and my Mom gave me some curry.  Alhamdulillah.  I think my next major project is chicken pot pies.  Creamy cheesy yummy.  Would you like to have a pot pie with me?  I love you, I love you.  And I need you, I need you.

44.  No, We gave the good things of this life to these men and their fathers until the period grew long for them.  See they not that We reduce the land from its outlying borders?  Is it then they who will win?

45.  Say, "I do warn you according to revelation."  But the deaf will not hear the call, when they are warned.

46.  If but a breath of the Wrath of your Lord does touch them, then they will say, "Woe to us!  We did wrong indeed!"

Hey there Julia, my most beautiful queen.  What a magnificent looking woman you are.  Are you feeling like one of those big cats, a leopard maybe?  Or as hungry as one?  Or just riding one?  Ah, you are so intense.  I love that about you.  We need to be married.  Perhaps I can help ease your hunger.  I love you so much, and I need you as much.  I will never abandon you, inshaAllah.  And how about you, Sad Eyes?  Please don't be melancholy.  Always know that I am here to love you, to look after you, and to help protect you.  What a beautiful and wonderful girl you are.  I will never abandon you, inshaAllah.  I love you, and I need you.

As Ramadan is over, I am back doing work on the internet.  There was simply no time for such during the fasting month.  I will be hanging out at my usual spot on Second Life, if you wish to seek me out there.  I just wanna dance.  I also have to watch videos from the Internet.  Part of the duties of a mass media company.  But only the ones that I like, of course.  I also have to watch the latest X-men movie.  Everything else looks kind of boring.  I much prefer the Uncanny X-men comics from the 80's to 1994.  But what movies ever follow the comic book anyway.  **yawn**

Life isn't supposed to be perfect.  Every soul shall have a taste of death.  Perfection is a reward in the next life.  Meanwhile, we are instructed to keep our faith in Allah, be firm, and consistent.  Of course you will find people who oppose you because of the spiritual and material wealth that Allah gives you for your sincere Islam.  So follow the example of the Prophet, peace be on him.  His conduct is the conduct to copy in the face of a dangerous enemy.

39.  If only the unbelievers knew when they would not be able to ward off the fire from their faces, nor yet from their backs, and no help can reach them!

40.  No, it may come to them all of a sudden and confound them.  No power will they have to avert it, nor will they get respite.

41.  Mocked were messengers before you, but their scoffers were hemmed in by the thing that they mocked.

42.  Say, "Who can keep you safe by night and by day from the Most Gracious?"  Yet they turn away from the mention of their Lord.
