For the 4th year in a row, I've missed his birthday.
September 9 2008. He's 6 years old now.
I always think of you, you're my center of universe even when you don't realize it.
Happy birthday son!

The Masterpieces
When it came to choose the greatest album ever made, one thing came up in my mind. How could you call it the greatest album? To me, it should be able to make me listen to the entire album, I remember lots of details in many songs, I could hum the melodies and the guitar solos. Most of the albums in the list I bought during my school days (junior high schools – university) when time was abundant and my life was way more simple that it is. They made their way to the list after I listened to it hundred times.
I’ve discovered some great albums recently but I don’t have such opportunities to listen to it for hundreds times anymore, so it lacks of deep emotional relationship between the songs and me. (Tool’s Lateralus, Megadeth’s Youthanasia, Radiohead’s albums are great. Recently I’ve just discovered Porcupine Tree, Bullet For My Valentine. They rocks!).
Well, it’s not easy to make a shorter list. If you ask me to make a new list later, it could be completely different. So, here is the list (the list sequence doesn't represent the rank):
Rush - Exit... Stage Left
Pink Floyd – The Wall
Metallica - … And Justice For All
Dream Theater – Images And Words
Mr. Big – Lean Into It
Van Halen – 5150
Saga – In Transit
Poison – Flesh & Blood
Motley Crue – Girls, Girls, Girls
GRP Super Live in Concert
Boston – Don't Look Back
The Black Crowes – The Southern Harmony And Musical Companion
Whitesnake – 1987
Def Leppard – Hysteria
Iwan Fals – Mata Dewa
God Bless – Semut Hitam
Swami – Swami
Indra Lesmana – For Earth and Heaven
Ugly Kid Joe – America
Guns N' Roses – Use Your Illusion I & II
Sepultura – Arise
Mr. Mister – Welcome to the Real World
Extreme – III Sides To Every Stories
Pantera – Vulgar Display of Power
Red Hot Chilli Peppers – Blood Sugar Sex Magik
