Dropping like flies... Swiped from solcito_cr . People are dropping like flies in my company. The number of colleagues diagnosed with life-threatening diseases seems to be on the rise. To date: A male senior manager underwent a double coronary bypass A male in-house consultant was diagnosed with irregular heartbeat after feeling unwell during a meeting A female HR director also underwent a coronary bypass A senior QA officer recently died after a two-year battle with lung cancer A female project manager just told me that she's scheduled for an angioplasty Wondering whether all this is work-related. Lack of exercise. Stress. Long hours. So scary. So young. Time to take more precautions and value life!

Bookmark for your banned books Swiped from mj*laflaca . “If left unchecked, the publications can corrupt the morals of society,” said ministry principal assistant secretary (Publication Control Division and Al-Quran Text) Abdul Aziz Abdul Latif. Definitely bestsellers if given a chance: Masalah Seksual Yang Anda Malu Tanya Rintihan Jiwa Seorang Lesbian Serakah Anak-anak Zombie Khazanah Mutiara Hikmah Suami Isteri dan Bakal Pengantin But now.... they have no chance to shine. :P. Anyone know where I can order online? :P.

Zack X Cloud

Zack X Cloud Swiped from crossbonesandstars . Recently, I finished playing Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core on the PSP. Quite a fun game of slash - slash - slash - upgrade - slash - slash - upgrade - slash - slash - slash. You get the picture. Typical FF style, but just that the battle style is not turn-based. The hero is Zack Fair , a member of SOLDIER who loves to do.... squats. Yes, squats . The storyline is the usual blend of Japanese weirdness and CGI eyecandy. And there's the usual romance subplot. Zack loves Aerith ( the typical female protagonist ), but through the progress of the game, we get to see something funny going on between him and Cloud Strife , a SOLDIER lackey. Zack Fair: [hears his voice] Embrace your dreams. [brief pause] Zack Fair: If you want to be a hero, you need to have dreams. Cloud Strife: Thank you... I won't forget. [stands up; bows his head in sadness; once he recovers] Cloud Strife: Good night [turns to leave, stops; almost whispered] Cl...

malaysia flag Swiped from khae_276 . Is it just me, or does it seem like that the number of Hungry Ghost Festival flags that are flying are comparable to the flags for National Day ? So much for the 52nd year of independence. Long weekend. Long weekend. Long weekend. And remember, avoid Bt. Jalil at all cost on Monday morning y'all!

Scrap It

24-bottles of beer Swiped from The Portrait Gallery . If you're not going to enforce a law, please scrap it. The head of the government coming out to the press, hoping that she will "appeal", sounds fishy. Might as well just say it outright that the government needs a way to turun pentas . And it kinda implies the executive is meddling with the judiciary. If she wants to go through with it, lantaklah ...

Snooty

Snooty Swiped from Travelin' Librarian . Jeff recently told me about a famous restaurant near my office, Shin Kee . I was told that the Hainanese Pork Chop is to die for! But that slipped my mind the day I went there with my colleagues, no thanks to the excellent service. Waiter: What you want to eat? Colleague: (wondering what to order as there was no menu) Do you have Singapore Bihun? Waiter: No bihun. Moi: Wat Tan Hor? Waiter: No cantonse style. Colleague: Beef Hor Fun? Waiter: No beef here. Colleague: Just Dry Hor Fun? Waiter: We don't serve hor fun. Only mee and bihun. Colleague: =_=" Zar dou! The food was OK, but kinda expensive wor.... my Hokkien Mee with sea coconut tong sui cost me MYR10.50.

Dark Chocolate

I just recently watched this short film by Yasmin Ahmad from the 15Malaysia project and I must say that there are many ways to interpret it. It's so brief and full of unspoken moments that one can draw many conclusions from it. In the comments section, people have spoken about inter-racial love, the plight of the non-bumiputera's, racial stereotypes and etc. Here's what I think: Hon Kah Hoe is twinky! Dahlah topless! Sekian...
