Just how stupid can a person be.

DUMB CHICK #1

NEW YORK ,Idaho resident Kathy Evans brought humiliation to her friends and family Tuesday when she set a new standard for stupidity with her appearance on the popular TV show, 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.'



It seems that Evans, a 32-year-old wife and mother of two, got stuck on the first question, and proceeded to make what fans of the show are dubbing 'the absolute worst use of lifelines ever.'

After being introduced to the show's host Meredith Vieira, Evans assured her that she was ready to play, whereupon she was posed with an extremely easy $100 question. The question was: 'Which of the following is the largest?'

A) A Peanut
B) An Elephant
C) The Moon
D) Hey, who you calling large?

Immediately Mrs. Evans was struck with an all consuming panic as she realized that this was a question to which she did not readily know the answer.
'Hmm, oh boy, that's a toughie,' said Evans, as Vieira did her level best to hide her disbelief and disgust. 'I mean, I'm sure I've heard of some of these things before, but I have no idea how large they would be.'
Evans made the decision to use the first of her three lifelines, the 50/50. Answers A and D were removed, leaving her to decide which was bigger, an elephant or the moon. However, faced with an incredibly easy question, Evans still remained unsure.
'Oh! It removed the two I was leaning towards!' exclaimed Evans. 'Darn. I think I better phone a friend.'
Using the second of her two lifelines on the first question, Mrs. Evans asked to be connected with her friend Betsy, who is an office assistant.
'Hi Betsy! How are you? This is Kathy! I'm on TV!' said Evans, wasting the first seven seconds of her call. 'Ok, I got an important question. Which of the following is the largest? B, an elephant, or C, the moon. 15 seconds hun.'
Betsy quickly replied that the answer was C, the moon. Evans proceeded to argue with her friend for the remaining ten seconds.
'Come on Betsy, are you sure?' said Evans. 'How sure are you? Duh, that can't be it.'
To everyone's astonishment, the moronic Evans declined to take her friend's advice and pick 'The Moon.'
'I just don't know if I can trust Betsy. She's not all that bright. So I think I'd like to ask the audience,' said Evans.
Asked to vote on the correct answer, the audience returned 98% in favor of answer C, 'The Moon.' Having used up all her lifelines, Evans then made the dumbest choice of her life.
'Wow, seems like everybody is against what I'm thinking,' said the too-stupid-to- live Evans. 'But you know, sometimes you just got to go with your gut. So, let's see. For which is larger, an elephant or the moon, I'm going to have to go with B, an elephant. Final answer.' Evans sat before the dumbfounded audience, the only one waiting with bated breath, and was told that she was wrong, and that the answer was in fact, C, 'The Moon.'

Ahh.. apparently she think she is so smart and her friend is 'not' so bright!

DUMB CHICK #2

Dumb case no. 2 is even better. Speechless is the word.. indescribable.
Just follow the picture.








Stupid Crap
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when someone shouted....' Look at that dead bird!' Someone looked up at the sky and said...'where?'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

While looking at a house, my brother asked the estate agent which direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him up every morning. She asked, 'Does the sun rise in the north?' When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and has for sometime, she shook her head and said, 'Oh, I don't keep up with that stuff'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she got on her weekend drive to the beach. She drove down in a convertible, but 'didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was moving
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car it's designed to cut through a seat belt if she gets trapped She keeps it in the trunk.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, 'Wouldn't the chain rip out every time she turned her head?' I had to explain that a person's nose and ear remain the same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area. So I went to the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in good hands. 'Now,' she asked me, 'Has your plane arrived yet?'...
(I work with professionals like this.)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------


While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. 'Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.

BLING MY PSP -PART 2

Read Part 1.

This is a very 'girly' post, so guys skip this unless

u want to bling bling too yea.

I did removed all the crystal off eventually

And redo everything, luckily i can re-use all the crystals

if not it will be such a waste

as its not very cheap to throw off a few hundreds of them.

This is my 2nd design

decided not to do the circular one as i couldnt come out with a perfect circle.

Its not even done yet as i just started.

Those coloured crystals on the top left are just placement

they are not stick on yet.

Now, see all the glue stain?

Im too generous with the glue on my last attempt

hence alot of ugly glue stains

I did try to rub it off with eraser, it works

but im lazy... so i decided to just make do

as the stains will be covered by crystals later on.

This is my 'working desk'

all my tools and im actually working on (top) my laptop

hahaha

This is something Anthea would be so interested in

Gal, I've promised you , picture of the Jap Glue.

The company is Clemendine.

Magic Pick for picking up the small crystal 1 by 1

I found a better way of sticking the crystal.
Instead of smearing Glue all over, like what i did previous
end up with ugly stains

Use the magic pick, pick the crystal up 1 by 1, and apply glue
directly on the back before sticking it.

Use a paper clip as applicator.

stick the crystal on the clip and slide it off onto the psp.
Its less messy and faster

WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING?

For the past few months, i been asking myself this..
What the hell have i been doing....
literally i been dragging myself out of bed every morning, and drag myself to work ...

Especially since i wasnt feeling too well since last month.
I feel so ... hmmm so ..... I really dont know.

I just seems to realise all of a sudden.
I have lost my direction in Life.
I have lost the focus which im suppose to have.
I have lost all motivation and desire.

I just wake up being blur every morning, and go to bed even blurr
I no longer knows what im doing... just passing each day by each day
I hate myself in this state.. which i seriously cannot comprehend what went wrong?!
I even start to question myself.. why am i doing the same thing day in day out..

So tired... I just want to rest.
Not a short holiday.... it just I wan to really NUAR at home doing nothing for a
while.
Maybe I feel get better from my IBS, which is triggered by stress
maybe i would feel more refreshed and focus, like what Ying suggest.
Maybe i should just not work and stay at home... but what am i doing to do at home?


Or am I getting OLD... TOO OLD
that i start to forget things... at an alarming speed
Like what Wick has suggested, get a voice recorder...
but seriously.. i think i would have forgotten to make a voice recording
or lost the recorder.

Luckily my boss is kind enough, ask me to take a long leave to rest and take care
of my health.

But boss.. (Im know you are reading this)
5 days of offdays including weekend is consider LONG LEAVE meh??
I thought LONG LEAVE is minimum 2 weeks off??
hmm ..................maybe i should have get dengue fever or chicken pox
MC for 2 weeks!

I seriously need some motivation and directions in LIFE
Sometimes i just wished i can disappear for a while...

Am I the only 1 that is feeling this??? Or everyone is the same.. ? which i doubt so.

Ignore me if you dont know what im ranting about...
i seriously dont know what im ranting off...
there is just too much question marks in my brain.

Arghh..............

Random

Recently I dont have much stuffs to blog about nor in the mood to blog.
Super depressed right now... another of my adult fish die yesterday
for no reason.... within 30 mins when i got home.
And it got to be my top favourite, the black big tail!!
Shit! When I though i can rest assured after all my fries are saved.....

Till then....

BLING MY PSP -Part 1

Basically this is my 2nd trial, after i try to bling my card reader
Just to make sure the glue doesnt damage the gadget

Before i started, Ying already warn me... PSP is way too ambitious
wahahah, but i finish my thumbdrive with an hr
so I decided to start on a adventure with my PSP!
After 1 hour plus
Eyes can see "fireworks" liao
and Im not even halfway done.
This is what i have here..... and i ran out of crystals

Gonna buy more crystals in black colour.

Should be able to complete this by Wed.. hopefully.

As this is my 1st attempt on bling the work is not perfect.

Maybe when i mastered the art of bling bling, I should be re-do the PSP again.

My next project should be my camera and hp.. haha

Hope i dont go BLIND!

AFTER GROOMING

Gosh, I just love the way Cyrus look after grooming.

I think he is VERY VERY HANDSOME..!

Im sooooo in love with him..

doesnt he have a human look?

Irene agrees Cyrus is a human not a dog.

Even Cyrus agrees too... know why?

I did a test before.

I call him "Dog, hey dog come here"

He didnt response, and he only came over when i say

"Hey Ren (human).. come here"

Eto on the other hand, response to Dog not Ren(human)

so Eto know he is a dog while Cyrus dont think so.

These pictures are taken with my hp. so quality not so good.

Superb Make-up Skills

See how make-up can enhance a gal's look.
(repost from email)

In this case... its really superb skills that do wonders!

BAD MORNING - PART 2

Read my past spawning journal here.

This post is a boring one. Im keeping it as a spawning journal.
Just skip if you are not into fishes.

I came home to MORE carcass.
In total i scooped out 46 dead fries, in addition to the 35 this morning
haiz....
But i do manage to save 1 little fellow... i almost thought he is dead!

in just 1 day, 81 fries die on me..
the most scary thing was.. all the daphnia that was added into the tank as food
end up dead as well.

Now i have a tank bottom full of dead daphnia and fries.

So damn suai, i really dunno what went wrong.
All I know, something is wrong with the water condition
the water was from a adult breeding tank which i though would very safe.

So i decided to do a PH test.
the test shows an alarming result
water in the tank was very acidic.. below 6
Is that why the daphnia and fries are dying on me?

Very likely as temperature and cleanliness should be favourable
only PH is not.

So i further did another 5 test on the old tank and mixture of water.
Old tank on the other hand is almost alkaline.. almost 7
I still have 2 fries in there surviving well with leftover of microfood

No choice, I need to bring down and balance the PH
so i further test another 8 times.. mixing water from the rest of the adult tank
into the old breeding tank until i obtain a PH of 6.6.

It such a co-incidence that today was Home Alone day.
Emma went back to Jb, and I was to handle all these on my own.

So I start to play scooping game again....
scooping the surviving fries 1 by 1 back into the old tank.

This time, survivor number was only 55.
it doesnt tally with the dead carcasses i found.
So i suspected that some could have been eaten as i just
caught 1 fries eating its smaller sibling.

when its all done, i added more daphnia into the old tank
using a touch to shine on them..
I could see the whole tank was full of microfood
and this time the fries was not as restless as the night before
I could see them chasing after the food.

Let just pray hard these 55 survives..
I didnt want to wake up to a tank a dead fries again.

BAD MORNING - PART 1

Read my past spawning journal here.


woke up this morning and saw white carcass floating

sad.....

last night just did a headcount .. got 145 pc of fries right?

This morning, i started scooping 1 by 1.

headcount for dead fries.. intotal I have 35 dead and maybe more to come

(which i hope not, keep my fingers crossed.)

Possibilties could be either not enough food or

fries are stressed out which causes death

i think should be the latter since most of the dead fries are

the bigger ones.

Emma just went to get some fries food for them

just hope i dont see any more carcass when i got home tonight.

the only good news was, emma found another small survivor stranded in the old tank.
so headcount is at 109.

BACK BREAKING ACTIVITY

Read my past spawning journal here.

Did something that really strain my back and neck!!
wan to break already lor.

I just spend the past 1hr + doing headcount for all my fries.

2 days back, i started to experiment with 7 fries.
scooped them into another container with aged water.
to see if they can survive the different environment.
Experts have warn me not to touch the fries, as they are very fragile
and unstable. any changes they will die off.

But i could no longer tahan the smelly water, so i tested
100% water change with 7 fries.

2 days later which is today.. they are still alive and kicking!
Okay .. means not necessary will die lor..

just just nw i try to scoop the rest of fries into another tank.. using a spoon
Emma was still saying some of the fries have die.. nw only left 50 pcs

Yea right.. Lao niang wo.. scoop until i wan to die
never ending lor.. almost cannot straighten my back and neck.

together with the pioneer 7.. in total i have 145 pcs.
can you imagine scooping 1 by 1, 138 times
and i need to use a torchlight if not cant even see them

its no fun.. man.
haha.. its really like those pasar malam game scooping the gold fish
I think i will score very well at that!

peeps. congratulate me.. i still have 145 fries left as of now!

If they all survive.. I will take picture of their betta rack.. hmm no shelves!

THE UPBRINGING OF OUR KIDS

Many time we have seen juvenile cases reported on newspaper

or someone near us would have complaint of their teenage kids

gone out of hands.

End up in police station for fights or so..

What really happen?

When the kids got into trouble, the parents will blame the school

the teachers or even the tutors.

For not teaching the kids manners or not keeping an eye on them.

Hello, how come parents did not ask themselves.

what happen to my children?

Are we responsible for such behaviour?

The school, teachers and tutor are not responsible for keeping

your kids out of trouble.

You are their parents, and they are your reponsiblities.

Why did i mentioned this topic today?

Saw something that make me rant about it.

Just the other day, as i was waiting for cab

I saw these group of six uncle and aunties crowding at the void deck.

Among them was a kid... hmm about 4-5 years.

That kid was very naughty.

He was playing with one of the uncle in a very rude manner.

screaming and shoving. But it seems so the adult is playing with

him in such manner.

At this point, I'll just watch.. i dont feel anything

Next, the kid push over a bicylcle

the toppled bicycle almost hit one of the uncle.

Everyone in the right mind would have scolded and disciplined him right?

They did not, instead they start applauding

cheering the boy on.

My eye open wide and my jaws drop..

WTF, they are encouraging the boy..

hence when the uncle actually picked the bike up.. the boy ran and toppled it again

This time it hit the uncle on the foot.

Again the rest started clapping and cheering the boy on.

The uncle was so mad, he try to grab the boy and smack him

before he did, the boy grab his arm and gave him a hard bite.

The uncle was yelling in pain and someone got to pulled the boy away.

The few aunties starting clapping and cheering and even giving the boy

the Thumb UP, telling him GOOD.

U can see the cheeky look on the boy face.

He was proud with what he have done and he is only 4 years old.

In another case which i have encountered.

Im used to tutor this 6 year old boy.

the whole day he would be at home with the maid Marie.

Parents would be working long hours

The boy would yell for Marie for any slightest thing.... water, pen, eraser.

even when the eraser is just few steps away from him.

after that, he would not say "Thank you"

I ask him why?

Why didnt you call her Auntie Marie, hw can you just yell for her name?

Why didnt you say 'thank you' each time Auntie Marie help you?

Why must you yelled everytime you need something, do you like me yelling at you??

Why can you just walk over and get your own eraser??

Should you say "Please" each time you need someone to help you?

He look at me wide eye and shrug his shoulder.

Must say thank you? Must call as Auntie Marie?

Must say 'please'??

His parents didnt tell him that......or correct him.

He told me, mommy and daddy did the same mah.

Marie told me, that is how thing are at home.

3 of them will take turn to yell for her..

no such things as 'PLEASE' and 'THANK YOU'

just because she is the MAID.

Is this how we s'poreans are teaching our kids now?

We, Sporean are so fucking proud of ourself especially when we are overseas.

We are so proud till we no longer know what is mutual respect and basic manners

But may I asked.. what are we proud of?

Our rude manners? Our cockiness? Our unruly behehaviour?

If 10, 15 years down the road.

Your so called precious children yelled at you, or even slap you back

Will you still cheer him on and give him the thumb Up?

THE EGG HAS HATCHED

Just 2 weeks ago, we are complaining that Nuff has got no ads..
and MsChorlor nuff's egg finally hatched.. she got $0.40

today i check.. my egg has hatch too!
I got $0.60 yeah dajie.. i got more than you.. blah :P

IS NUDE THE NEW FASHION?

Is Nude the new fashion in Asia?

Another Asian have gotten into trouble with the law for flashing his assets.

He is Japanese celebrity,Tsuyoshi Kusanagi
member of the heavenly group group SMAP.



The 34 years old have been arrested for indecent exposure.

Public indecency in Japan carries a penalty of up to
six months in prison or a fine of up to 300,000 yen.

Not only slap with the risk of being jail.
Toyota and Procter & Gamble have immediately called off their
advertising campaign featuring the actor.
Cant imagine how much losses he would have suffered following his arrest.

Unlike our Holland Village duo.
He was drunk and naked... bet he would have been so shocked at what
he have done when he is sober.
read details here.

note: pictures grabbed from the internet.

ITS RAINING MANGOES

This year, due to dry weather
all the mangoes trees are having a good harvest.
Been staying in Tampines for almost 3 years now
Its the 1st time that I notice the abundance of mangoes
hanging from the trees.

In fact, i've never know they are mango tress

the picture below is one of the mangoes trees
but consider to have a bad harvest in my opinion.



Just walk along the street to Tampines Mall.
You will see the whole street are 'decorated' with mangoes.

There is this particular tree, Emma pointed out
"Look at that its a Mango X'mas Tree"
with that its easy to imagine how it look like.
hasnt got a chance to take a shoot of that xmas tree thou

we been wondering what is going to happen to those mangoes
is it going to gone to waste?

But there is good news now.
NDP will be harvesting this mangoes for charity.
Isnt that nice? Read about it here.

on a side note:
these mango tress are planted on the road side
and i do notice some of their branches are not prun
hence its literally hanging mangoes above the road and traffic
what happen if the ripen mango fell off and hit a passing vehicle
cause a shock to the driver and resulting in a traffic accident?
hehe maybe i have think too much!

Irene was asking me why mangoes huh? How come not durians?
Gal ar.. you wan to risk getting hit by durians meh?!LOL..

LOANSHARK VISITING ME

Abit tired tonight.. been having sleepless night
Too tired to look for new blogging material
so i went to dig out pictures which i took before i started my blog

See loanshark masterpiece before??
Welcome to my house!

This happen somewhere in Nov 2007, one mth after my ROM

like tat also shiok meh?!
and use green paint.. not scary enough

This happen around 6am on a weekday.
I have to climb out of the window to take these pictures.. hehe


These wordings on the wall only appear 30 mins after the police left


KNN... see the mobile number and it say to call after 7pm?
What, loanshark only operate from 7pm to 7am is it?

WAS
this loanshark was either non educated, cant even read numbers
or he was fucking stoned!

wake up your bloody fucking brain when you are working!
the block number, and unit number is not even mine!

we wasted 2.5 hrs cleaning up the mess.
Actually we thought to just leave the paint there in case this
loanshark make a mistake again.
but worry my dogs die from licking up the paint.

Oh yah, my KPO neighbours were so busy walking
pass my unit to see us clean up..and busy gossiping
about their new neighbour owing loan shark money
Still pretend to throw litter and ask me..
