And so, do you think u wanna give it a try? Money for nothing? Is there such a thing? Sometimes, although we laugh at such spam mails, there are still many gullible people around who fall prey to such scam; and the next thing they will do is to cry for help in front of our infamous Mr Micheal Cheng from MCA! ;)

Car Polish

It's weekend. And so I decided to "give a treat" to my 1 year 8 month old car. Took her to the nearby newly opened car polishing company for a spa treatment! :)

Ever since I bought this car, it has been always me washing her every week. However, after last week's car wash by those professional people from that car polishing company. I finally decided that the RM10 is damn worth it (plus vacuum and waxing the dashboard!). And I will not do that donkey job myself again. And it is also after their persuation last week, that I decided to bring my car for waxing and polishing today. Cost me Rm150 after discount.

But I must admit one thing for sure -- they did a damn good job. Now my car looks just as new as I first bought it. I just hope when I drive out tonight for dinner, it doesn't rain... or else, my car will be due for another car wash in few days time! ;)

Viagra For Ancestors

Cheng Beng (tombsweeping festival) is near.

Read this piece of news in The Star today, and thought that some people are really innovative in the money making business nowadays! Imagine viagra (in paper replica form) to be burnt for the deceased ancestors during the Cheng Beng festival, as a wish for satisfying their sex after-life! :) They even sell images of condoms and heavily made-up bar girls.... The usual items the chinese have been burning for their ancestors are things like cars, handphones, pagers, paper money, houses, maids, diamond rings ...etc.

And I wonder if there is any one ever tried burning images of doctors, lawyers and bodyguards for their ancestors; lest they fall sick, need legal advice and extra protection by Gurkha bodyguards (bcoz having big cars, big house and big money, can risk being kidnapped or robbed!)

Having said all that (well, it was just a joke anyway, whatever I said above), becoz of multi-racial and multi-religion in this country, hence there is multi-beliefs from every ethnic and society member. We cannot therefore say this practice is right or wrong; neither can we judge other people's belief using our own perspective or religious belief. I hate people who condemn other people's belief, no matter how weird or funny the practice is.

Everyone has his or her right to believe in whatever, so long as not harming the harmony of the society and that of the world.

Malas?

On call today.

Got a call from labor room. The MO, with her strong chinese accent "chinglish", said over the phone,"We've a baby out 45 minutes ago, now still blue facies... "

"Gosh... 45 minutes ago?! Is the baby crying now?! How is the baby NOW?!"

"Yeah 45 minutes ago... Still malas... "

"Pardon me?"

"Malas"

Took me few seconds to register,"U mean still weak looking? Any cord round neck?"

"But moving limbs... but malas... yes, loose round neck" (WTF is this description anyway?!)

"Ok...ok, I come now!" hung up the phone and ran to LR.

At times, i do get such referrals, and dunno to be angry or to start laughing.
And why the hell did she call me after 45-long-minutes anyway?! If the baby was flat since birth and no resuscitation was given adequately, it would be already another CP child in the making.

Anyway, the baby was fine, just congested face; observed for 4 hours and sent back to mother.

KKM Search For Doc

I came across the KKM new website today, and am surprised to find out that there is a search function, which my name could be found on their database! I tried a few more names of my friends, and my wife... all are in their database. And that they are also providing the email add for the doctors of KKM, ending with @moh.gov.my.

So is your name in there too?

World University Ranking

If you would like to know where our local universities stand in the World University Ranking, you can take a look here. To be more specific looking at the Top 100 universities in south East Asian countries, take a look here. The picture above just illustrates a few universities in Malaysia, with their respective world ranking. It doesn't show the ranking of UNIMAS, and looking through the list at the website, I found out that it's at the 3542nd place.
