Miami Ink: Tattoos and Drama

Image
Have you ever noticed that tattoo artists are usually all covered in tattoo themselves? I wonder why that is? "This week Ami James and the rest of the guys from Miami Ink have a heavy dose of loss, transformation and hope for the future. This episode is all about relationships; relationships from the past, present and future. These stories of love, honor and loss are revealed to them not only from the clients who come into the shop, but also from one of their own. James, Ami's former apprentice, comes into the shop to finish a piece that Ami started over eight years age. In the process, enlightening us to what its like to be Ami's apprentice.

An old friend of Ami's, Cordell, who has been talking about getting his first tattoo for years, finally has a good enough reason. His cousin Re...

A Reason To Watch Free Malaysian TV: Top Gear

Image
You have probably noticed that a few months ago Astro recently added a few more channels to it’s line up. One of them is the ultra cool and dry BBC Entertainment . You’d notice that everyone on this channel speaks with a weird accent; it’s because they’re British. I was a wee bit excited because I had hoped that this will give me a chance to watch the much talked about show Top Gear on the telly. What’s great about the show is you don’t have to be crazy about cars to enjoy it. It’s that entertaining! No such Luck. According to their website they weren’t planning to air Top Gear anytime soon … It thought that was that, and I would have to resort to torrents again, so imagine my surprise and delight to find the show airing on NTV7 instead! If you only watch Astro channels , this is an example of how you might be missing out on what Free TV has to offer. Top Gear - Sunday 3:00 pm on ntv7

3 TV Shows Worth Watching on Sundays on Discovery Channel

1. I Shouldn't BE Alive Every time I watch this TV show, I pretend I am the protagonist who is thrown into what seems to be a hopeless situation where the outcome can only be a horrible death at sea, dessert or rainforest. Yes death by heat, starvation, infected wounds or predators is what’s in store for me and whoever who is unfortunate enough to be with me at the time. I like to watch this in bed, under the covers whilst munching on something with the air conditioner turned ON. 2. American Chopper It’s funny that before I started watching this TV show, I had no interest in motorcycles whatsoever. In fact I still don't. The appeal of this show is not about the machines. It’s in watching these guys build them. Father, sons and co-worker together building a motorcycle from scratch. It’s entertaining to watch them bumbling about, getting things wrong and fooling around. I sincerely believe that an episode where Paul Sr. loses it or where Junior starts throwin...

NOBITA! NOBITA!

Not many people know this, but Doraemon is in fact a cat. His ears were bitten of by a robot mouse back in the future. "Doraemon was sent back in time by Nobita Nobi's great-great grandson Sewashi to improve Nobita's circumstances in order for Nobita's descendants to enjoy a better future. In the original timeline, Nobita's failures in school and subsequently, his career, left his family line beset with financial problems. I wish I had a magic robot cat from the future to help me out in my daily life. Doraemon - Saturday 7:30 pm on NTV7
