Just for laugh (2) :) ..

A proud mother prepared her little boy for his first day at school. "Now, if you want to have a wee-wee, hold up your hand in the class and the teacher will ask you what you want. Tell her you want to go to the toilet and she'll give you permission to leave the room."
During his first class, the little boy felt the urge and put his hand up. The teacher asked what he wanted. "I have to go to the toilet," he said.
"Okay, it's the door on the right at the end of the corridor."
A moment later he was back at the classroom door looking agitated. "I can't find it," he said.
The teacher said, very slowly and carefully, "Go out, turn left, go to the end of the corridor, and through the door on the right."
No sooner had he disappeared than he was back again, chocking back tears.
"I still can't find it."
The teacher hailed an older boy walking along the corridor and asked him to show the little lad where the toilet was. They disappeared. When they came back the teacher asked if everything was all right. He said, "Yes teacher. He had his underpants on back to front."

The little boy was having trouble with math, and whatever the teacher asked him he'd count on his fingers.
"Two plus two?"
Counting his fingers, "Four."
"Three plus three?"
Again, counting his fingers, "Six."
"Now I want you to stop using your fingers. Put your hands in your pockets, and tellme what is five plus five."
The kid fumbled quietly before he gave the answer.
"Eleven," he said.

Just for laugh :)

The cops raided a brothel in Kings Cross. In one of the booths they found an Asian bloke bonking like crazy. "What's your name?'
"My Name is Ting."
In the next room they found another Asian bloke sitting quietly in a shabby armchair. "And what is your name?"
"My Name is Ting."
"Oh yeah?", said the sergeant suspiciously. "How come we've just arrested Ting in the room next door?"
"He is Ru Ting. I am Wah Ting."

A Japanese businessman arrives at the Melbourne airport from Tokyo and goes straight to the airport bank. In return for a 1000 yen, the teller gives him 1260 Australian dollars. A few days later he's flying to Sydney and goes tot he same counter for some extra cash. This time the teller hands him 1185 dollars for his 1000 yen. The japanese complains, saying, "One thousand yen, one thousand two hundred and sixty dollars, not right, not right"
The teller calmly explains tha the rates change daily. But the Japanese, by now holding up a number of other customers, continues to demand his "one thousand two hundred and sixty dollars".
The teller tries patiently to explain, "Please understand, it's the world money rate, the differences in currency." Failing to communicate, he then said loudly, "I'ts the fluctuations, the fluctuations!"
To which the angry Japanese replied, "Well fluck you Aussies too!"

Sacking is good for company?

A survey in the United Kingdom reveals that 77 per cent of bosses think letting go of workers regularly is good for the company - The Straits Times CATS, Saturday March 17, 2007.

I, on the other hand, believe sacking bosses regularly is better.

Cost wise, getting rid of bunch of them is as effective as getting rid 20-40% of the overall workforce, with lesser social impact. Company moral wise, sacking bosses provides good moral boost for the rest of the workers. Who on earth won't be motivated to work hard to reach the top knowing that you can screw the company and get away with millions of dollars in separation package? Last but not least, voting for whom to get rid next would also be a good fun team building exercise for the workers :) ..

Yet another funny clip :) ...

Mr. Bean at his best. I guess I have to thank Princess for renting the movie :). One more in my must-buy list.

2 buy or not 2 buy?

Personally I found this is a very good article by Peter Clinch on trekking poles. Good for those eying trekking poles, with knee problem, and not knowing what's good and what's not :).

Officially chickened-out ...

Kinabalu checklist:
1. Book room @ Laban rata - checked :) !
2. Book flight to BKI - checked :) !
3. Company wide travel ban that officially canceled my trip - checked :( !
4. Ask around and read horror story about what to expect - checked :( !
5. Realizing that Kinabalu is a mountain and not a hill - checked :( !

Thanks to my check-later-commit-first attitude, now I am officially chickened-out on the expedition. The good thing though is it justify my buying of oh-so-cool camping gears :)!

So Kinabalu here I come!

Somebody say Hi from Down Under ..
