Indian Salesmanship
received this from email... haha... good one... do read...
Generally, Indians tend to out as lawyers, DJs and Salespersons possibly because of their gift of the gab .... Read below
SALESMANSHIP - INDIAN STYLE
An Indian moves to Montreal and goes to a big department store looking for a job.
The manager asks, 'Do you have any sales experience?'
The Indian says, 'Yeah, I was a salesman back home'.
Well, the manager liked the young man, so he gave him the job. 'You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and see how you did, but let me give you a bit of advice.. If a customer comes looking, say, for toothpaste, you might suggest for him a toothbrush, or shaving cream etc. You get the idea?
'Of course,' the young man said. His first day on the job was rough but he got through it.
After the store was locked up, the manager came down. 'How many sales did you make today?
The Indian says, 'One'
The manager groans, 'Just one? Our sales people average 20 or 30 sales/day.'
How much was the sale for?'
The Indian says, '$101, 237.64.'
The manager exclaims, 'What? $101,237.64? What did you sell him?'
The Indian replied, 'First I sold him a small fish hook. Then I sold him a medium fishhook. Then I sold him a larger fishhook. Then I sold him a new fishing rod. Then I asked him where he was going fishing, and he said down at the coast, so I told him he was going to need a boat, so we went down to the boat department, and I sold him that twin engine Chris Craft. Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to the automotive department and sold him that 4x4 Pajero.'
The manager says 'You mean a guy came in here to buy a fish hook and you sold him a boat and truck?!'
The Indian says, 'No, no, no, he came in here to buy a box of Kotex for his wife and I said, 'Well, since your weekend's already screwed up you might as well go fishing!!'

I NEED YOUR HELP (email spam)
received this from email... think it's a spam or sent by virus...
Good day Dear,
I am Paul Olds, son of late Mr. Martin Olds, a farmer from republic of Zimbabwe, you may be aware of what happened and what is still happening in my country years back, it was very long story but my reason for contacting you is for your assistance and the benefit of both of us.
My father being one of the few rich and successful farmers in our country was victimized because of his opposition to Mugabe's policies. Mugabe's supporters invaded my father's farm and burnt everything in the farm, shot my father and made away with a lot of items in my father's farm.
Please see the following web pages for more understanding about my father:
http://www.rte.ie/news/2000/0418/zimbabwe.html
http://archives.cnn.com/2001/WORLD/africa/08/12/violence.zimbabwe/
My father before his death deposited with one of the Bank in Accra Ghana the sum of US$ 4 Million United States Dollars, with the sole aim of buying water dredging company/equipments in setting up of a dredging firm in Ghana.
Due to the constant insecurity in Zimbabwe, we have to run for our dear life to Republic of Ghana, with the assistance of United nation official we are able to arrive Ghana under United Nation Immunity, unfortunately my beloved Mother died and left me with my only junior brother Mike who is seriously sick now in the refugee camp, I will need your help to secure the fund my late Father deposited here in Ghana to your country and plan for the investment as I have no knowledge of business, due to the nature of my stay here, I don't normally go out , because we are staying at refugee camp, therefore I urge you to assist me get the fund out to your place so that I will plan for my life.
We have prepared to give you 40% from the total amount for your effort of assisting us, all the documents of the deposited fund is with me, you will go through it when I will send them to you as we proceed.
Kindly get back to me.
As soon as I hear from you, I will send you other details about the money.
Thanks for your response.

First confirm case of Influenza A (H1N1) in Singapore
The patient is currently being treated at the Communicable Disease Centre at Tan Tock Seng Hospital and is in stable condition.
The patient is a 22-year-old Singaporean woman who was in New York from May 14-24.
She arrived back in Singapore from New York on SQ25 on 26 May at 6.30am.
She began to develop a cough while onboard.
She passed the thermal scanner uneventfully as she did not have fever then.
Later in the morning, she consulted a GP who decided to send her to TTSH via a 993 ambulance, given her travel history.
She was immediately admitted for testing. Laboratory confirmation of her infection was made by midnight of 26 May.
The patient has been vigilant in monitoring her own condition and had sought immediate medical attention once she realized that she was unwell.
Her attending GP, through his quick response in activating the 993 ambulance for the patient, had also helped to minimize the spread of infection from this case.
The Health Ministry says it has initiated contact tracing of her close contacts. They will be quarantined and provided with antiviral prophylaxis.
Passengers who had travelled in the same flight and were seated in rows 52 to 58 are urged to call the hotline at 1800-333 9999 to enable the MOH to check on their health condition.
The MOH adds that all medical practitioners and healthcare institutions should continue to be vigilant to suspect cases.
Singapore will continue with temperature screening for passengers entering Singapore at all checkpoints (land, sea and air).
All passengers passing through or entering Singapore are given Health Alert Notices on board their flights, advising them to monitor their own health if they have been to affected areas and to seek medical attention immediately if they are not well.

The MOH adds that all medical practitioners and healthcare institutions should continue to be vigilant to suspect cases.
Singapore will continue with temperature screening for passengers entering Singapore at all checkpoints (land, sea and air).
All passengers passing through or entering Singapore are given Health Alert Notices on board their flights, advising them to monitor their own health if they have been to affected areas and to seek medical attention immediately if they are not well.

Beware of fake DBS website
received the following info from email... be careful when going to DBS Internet-Banking...
Last night at around 8:20 pm, I tried to log on to DBS internet banking. I clicked on my Favorites and I was brought to the website below. If you are a DBS i-banking user, you will readily notice that this website seems to be different as it is asking you for your DBS iB secure PIN right on the first page. Typically, you will only be asked for the DBS iB secure PIN after
you have successfully keyed in your User ID and Password. In any case, since I did not suspect anything wrong, I keyed in the three numbers required. After I have entered the numbers, a new webpage appeared saying that I should wait for the SMS One Time Password (OTP). I waited for a few seconds and none came.
That's when I suspected that something was wrong. So I called up DBS hotline and I was told that the website below is NOT their website. So DBS immediately cancelled my i-banking services and verified that none of my monies were transferred.
When I used my home computer and my colleague's office computer this morning to log on to DBS again, thankfully I was brought to the right website.
I think that either my office computer or DBS' website (or both) had been compromised. In any case, I sent DBS a print-screen copy of the website as well as details of the URL. They said they will investigate. The customer service officer said that there are some cases similar to mine that have been reported to them previously.

Ball pits in the children's play area
received this from email...
PLEASE READ THIS !!DO NOT IGNORE!! YOUR CHILD COULD DIE FROM
THIS! DON'T IGNORE THIS BECAUSE ITS A LONG ARTICLE PLEASE!! PLEASE READ!!
McDonalds, Burger king, Time Zone... All places with ball pits in the children's play area.
One of my sons lost his watch, and was very upset. We dug and dug in those balls, trying to find his watch.
Instead, we found vomit, food, faeces, and other stuff I do not want to discuss.
I went to the manager and raised hell. Come to find out, the ball pit is only cleaned out once a month. I have doubts that it is even done that often.
My kids will never play in another ball pit.
Some of you might not be parents, but you may have nieces, nephews, grandchildren, or friends with children.
This will pertain to you too. As I read the following, my heart sank.
I urge each and every one of you to pass this on to as many people as you can. I cannot stress how important this is!
Hi. My name is Lauren Archer, my son Kevin and I lived in Melbourne, Australia.
On October 2nd, 1999 I took my only son to McDonald's for his 3rd birthday.
After he finished lunch, I allowed him to play in the ball pit. When he started whining later on, I asked him what was wrong, he pointed to the back of his pull-up and simply said "Mommy, it hurts." I couldn't find anything wrong with him at that time. I bathed him when we got home, and it was at that point when I found a welt on his left buttock.
Upon investigating, it seemed as if there was something like a splinter under
the welt. I made an appointment to see the doctor the next day, but soon he started vomiting and shaking, then his eyes rolled back into his head. From there, we went to the emergency room. He died later that night.
It turned out that the welt on his buttock was the tip of a hypodermic needle that had broken off inside.
The autopsy revealed that Kevin had died from a heroine overdose. The next week, the police removed the balls from the ball pit. There was rotten food, several hypodermic needles: some full, some used; knives, half-eaten candy, diapers, faeces, and the stench of urine.
Don't think it's just McDonald's either. A little boy had been playing in a ball pit @ a Burger King & started complaining of his legs hurting. He later died too. He was found to have snake bites all over his legs & buttocks. When they cleaned the ball pit they found that there was a snake's nest in the ball pit. He had suffered numerous bites from a very poisonous snake.
Repost this if it scares the crap out of you!! Repost this if you care about kids!! Please forward this to all loving mothers, fathers and anyone who loves and cares for children!! What has this world come to?? If a child is not safe in a child's play area then where??

快樂其實是一種習慣
一大早，我跳上一部計程車，要去台北郊區做企業內訓。
因正好是尖峰時刻，沒多久車子就卡在車陣中，此時前座
的司機 先生開始不耐地嘆起氣來。
隨口和他聊了起來：
「最近生意好嗎？」
後照鏡的臉垮了下來，聲音臭臭的：
「有什麼好？到處都不景氣，你想我們計程車生意會好嗎
？每天十幾個時，也賺不到什麼錢，真是氣人！」
嗯，顯然這不是個好話題，換個主題好了，我想。
於是我說：「不過還好你的車很大很寬敞，即便是塞車，
也讓人覺得很舒服……」
他打斷了我的話，聲音激動了起來：「舒服個鬼！不信你
來每天坐12個小時看看，看你還會不會覺得舒服！？」
接著他的話匣子開了，抱怨政府無能、社會不公，所以人
民無望。我只能安靜地聽，一點兒插嘴的機會也沒。
兩天後同一時間，我再一次跳上了計程車，再一次地要去
郊區同一家企業做訓練，然而這一次，卻開啟了迥然不同
的經驗。
一上車，一張笑容可掬的臉龐轉了過來，伴隨的是輕快愉
悅的聲音：「你好，請問要去哪?」
真是難得的親切，我心中有些訝異，隨即告訴了他目的地
。 他笑了笑：「好，沒問題！」
然而走沒兩步，車子又在車陣中動彈不得了起來。前座的
司機先生手握方向盤，開始輕鬆地吹起口哨哼起歌來，顯
然今天心情不錯。
於是我問：「看來你今天心情很好嘛！」
他笑得露出了牙齒：「我每天都是這樣啊，每天心情都很好。」
「為什麼呢？」我問：「大家不都說景氣差，工作時間長，收
入都不理想嗎？」
司機先生說：「沒錯，我也有家有小孩要養，所以開車時間也跟
著拉長為12個小時。 不過，日子還是很開心過的，我有個祕密……」
他停頓了一下：「說出來先生你別生氣，好嗎？」
當然好，只要是快樂的祕密，我這個念過心理學的都感興趣。
他說：「我總是換個角度來想事情。例如，我覺得出來開車 ，其
實是客人付錢請我出來玩。
像今天一早，我就碰到像你這樣的先生，花錢請我跟你到陽明山去
玩，這不是很好嗎？等下到了陽明山，你去辦你的事，而現在是花
季，我就正好可以順道賞賞花，抽根菸再走啦！」
他繼續說：「像前幾天哦，有一對情侶去淡水看夕陽，他們下車後
，我也下來喝碗魚丸湯，擠在他們旁邊看看夕陽才走，反正來都來
了嘛，更何況還有人付錢呢？」
漂亮！多精采的一個祕密！
我突然意識到自己有多幸運，一早就有這份榮幸，跟前座的EQ高手
同車出遊，真是棒極了。又能坐車，心情又開心，這樣的服務有多
難得，我決定跟這位司機 先生要電話，以後再邀他一起出遊。
接過他名片的同時，他的手機鈴聲正好響起，有位老客人要去機場
，原來喜歡他的不只我一位，相信這位EQ高手的工作態度，不但替
他贏得好心情，也必定帶進許多生意。
快樂其實是一種習慣
心理學家發現，快樂其實是一種習慣，不論環境怎麼變，EQ高手的
快樂決心是不會改變的。
當我們能換一種心態去看待自己的工作，並帶著遊戲般的愉快心情
面對工作，你會發覺自己的內在能量強大許多，抗壓應變的功力也
因此大為增進，而這，也正是貫徹快樂決心的漂亮做法。
我自己就常覺得，工作其實是一種偽裝，讓我有很好的藉口及機會
，能因著演講及各種活動，去認識許許多多有趣精彩的人，這不是
很過癮嗎？（更何況，往往還有人付錢呢！）。

Memoirs of IMH
received this from email...
Record I
Patient A: "So how... this book not bad yah?"
Patient B: "Yah agree, excellent! Astounding work. No nonsense, sharp and concise to the point. But there's a major flaw in this piece of art – too many character names to remember!!!"
Nurse: "Hey! Can the two of you put the telephone book back to the original place?"
Record II
A doctor asked a patient: "If I were to cut one of your ears off, what will happen to you?"
Patient: "Then I will not be able to hear..."
Doctor: "Hmm…that's normal...so if I were to cut your other ear off, what will happen then?"
Patient: "I will not be able to see..."
The doctor became nervous and asked: "Why would you not see then???"
Patient: "Because my spectacles will fall off..."
Record III
IMH has an old lady who wears black, carries a black umbrella and squats at the entrance to the IMH everyday without fail, rain or shine.
The doctor wanted to administer treatment for her but decided to understand her behavior first.
So, the doctor also wears black and carries a black umbrella; squatted besides her everyday. The days go by...the two of them squatted side-by-side w/o a single exchange of word. After one solid month, the old lady finally broke the silence and asked the doctor: "Err...Excuse me! Are you also a mushroom?"
Record IV
A nurse saw a patient writing a letter. She got curious and went to take a peek. But the patient didn't wanna let her see.
Nurse (unable to contain her curiosity): "Who are you writing to?"
Patient: "I'm writing a letter to myself..."
Her curiosity grew and she thought to herself (Why would someone write a letter to himself?)
So she asked again: "So...what's written inside?"
Patient (got impatient): "You crazy ah? I haven't received the letter, how would I know??"
Record V
Two patients escape from the IMH. They climbed up a tree and one of them fell from the tree and started rolling on the ground.
After a while, the patient below shouted to the one on top: "Hey! How come you are not coming down yet?"
The patient on top replied: "No. no...I can't...I'm not ripe yet"
Record VI
One patient visited the doctor: "Doc...How? I think I'm a chicken since the day I was born..."
Doctor: "Wah! That’s very serious...Why do you only come and seek treatment now?"
Patient: "Because my family needs me to hatch the eggs..."
Record VII
One truck driver was doing his usual delivery to IMH.
He discovered a flat tyre when he was about to go home. He jacked up the truck and took the flat tyre down. When he was about to fix the spare tyre, he accidentally dropped all the bolts into the drain. As he can't fish the bolts out, he started to panic.
One patient happened to walk past and asked the driver what happened.
The driver thought to himself, since there's nothing much he can do; he told the patient the whole incident.
The patient laughed at him & said "can't even fix such a simple problem...no wonder you are destined to be a truck driver..."
Here’s what you can do, take one bolt each from the other 3 tyres and fix it onto this tyre. Then drive to the nearest workshop and replace the missing ones, easy as that"
The driver was very impressed and asked "You're so smart but why do are you here at the IMH?"
Patient replied: "Hello, I stay here because I'm crazy not STUPID!"

Malaysia confirm first case of H1N1
KUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia's top health official Friday confirmed the country's first case of Influenza A (H1N1) amid fears that some of those exposed to the infected patient could have gone on to Indonesia.
"I can confirm (that it) is the first case in Malaysia," health ministry director general Ismail Merican told AFP.
Acting health minister Kong Cho Ha, who addressed a hastily-convened press conference later, said the patient was a 21-year-old male student who arrived on a flight from the United States on May 13, giving no further details on his identity.
He said the patient came down with fever, sore throat and body aches the next day and was admitted to the Sungai Buloh quarantine facility in central Selangor state on the same evening and is now in stable condition.
He said five family members who live with the patient have been placed under home quarantine in order to monitor their condition.
The government has urged all passengers who travelled on Malaysian Airlines flight MH091 from Newark in the United States to Kuala Lumpur, that landed at 7.15am on May 13 to contact the ministry for further instructions.
"No passengers have been quarantined, we are still trying to trace them," Kong said of the 199 passengers and crew onboard the flight. "We will segregate them (when located). If they have no signs (of the disease) they can go after a certain number of days," he added.
However, he said there was a fear that some of those exposed to the infected patient may have gone on to Indonesia.
"We mention Indonesia because that flight is a code share with (Indonesian carrier) Garuda so the assumption is that there could be some passengers going to Indonesia," he added.
Officials could not immediately confirm how many Indonesians were on board nor if any passengers continued onto Indonesia.
Kong said Malaysia's alert level would remain the same despite its first confirmed H1N1 flu case as the country was already at its highest state of preparedness since the World Health Organisation raised its flu alert to phase five out of six.

Copy & Paste (joke)
A popular motivational speaker was entertaining his audience.
He Said:
"The best years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who wasn't my wife !"
The audience was in silence and shock.
The speaker added: "And that woman was my mother!"
Laughter and applause.
A week later, a top manager trained by the motivational speaker tried to crack this very effective joke at home.
He was a bit foggy after a drink.
He said loudly to his wife who was preparing dinner,
"The greatest years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who was not my wife!"
The wife went ; "ah!" with shock and rage.
Standing there for 20 seconds trying to recall the second half of the joke, the manager finally blurted out "...and I can't remember who she was !"
By the time the manager regained his consciousness, he was on a hospital bed nursing burns from boiling water
Moral of the story: Don't copy if you can't paste!

Little Johnny is at it again....
A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses. She started her class by saying, 'Everyone who thinks they're stupid, stand up!' After a few seconds, Little Johnny stood up. The teacher said, 'Do you think you're stupid, Little Johnny?' 'No, ma'am, but I hate to see you standing there all by yourself!'
* * * * * * * * * * *
Little Johnny watched, fascinated, as his mother smoothed cold cream on her face. 'Why do you do that, mommy?' he asked. 'To make myself beautiful,' said his mother, who then began removing the cream with a tissue. 'What's the matter?' asked Little Johnny. 'Giving up?'
* * * * * * * * * * *
The math teacher saw that little Johnny wasn't paying attention in class. She called on him and said, 'Johnny! What are 2 and 4 and 28 and 44?' Little Johnny quickly replied, 'NBC, FOX, ESPN and the Cartoon Network!'
* * * * * * * * * * *
Little Johnny's kindergarten class was on a field trip to their local police station where they saw pictures tacked to a bulletin board of the 10 most wanted criminals. One of the youngsters pointed to a picture and asked if it really was the photo of a wanted person. 'Yes,' said the policeman. 'The detectives want very badly to capture him.' Little Johnny asked, 'Why didn't you keep him when you took his picture ?'
* * * * * * * * * * *
Little Johnny attended a horse auction with his father. He watched as his father moved from horse to horse, running his hands up and down the horse's legs and rump, and chest. After a few minutes, Johnny asked, 'Dad, why are you doing that?' His father replied, 'Because when I'm buying horses, I have to make sure that they are healthy and in good shape before I buy. Johnny, looking worried, said, 'Dad, I think the UPS guy wants to buy Mom .'

Famous Amos Cookie Recipe
received this from email...
Try the recipe... when you go to Famous Amos Café, Bangsar
This is a true story
My daughter and I had just finished a muffin at Famous Amos Café in Bangsar & decided to have some cookies. Because both of us are such a cookie lovers, we decided to try the "Hawaiian
Nut Cookie".
It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe and the waitress said with a small frown "I'm afraid cannot". Well I said, "Would you let me buy the recipe?"
With a cute smile, she said "YES". I asked how much and she responded, "only two fifty, it's a
great deal!" I said with approval, "Just add it to my bill"
Thirty days later, I received my VISA statement from Famous Amos and it was RM285.00. I
looked again and remembered I had only spent RM9.95 for two muffins and about RM20.00 for a pie. As I glanced at the bottom of the statement, it said, "cookie recipe - RM250.00". That's
outrages!!!
I called the Famous Amos's Accounting Dept. and told them that the waitress said it was "two-fifty", which clearly does not mean "two hundred and fifty dollars" by any POSSIBLE interpretation of the phrase. Famous Amos refused to budge... They would not refund my money, because according to them, "What the waitress told you is not our problem. You have already seen the recipe - we absolutely will not refund your money at this point."
I explain to her the criminal statues which govern fraud in Malaysia . I threatened to refer them to police for engaging in fraud. I was basically told, "Do what you want, we don't care, and we're
not refunding your money." I waited for a moment, thinking of how I could get even, or even try to get any of my money back. I just said, "Okay, you people got my RM2-50.00 , and now I'm going to have a RM250.00 worth of fun."
I told her that I was going to see to it that every cookie lover in Malaysia with an email account
has a RM250.00 cookie recipe from Famous Amos...for free... She replied, "I wish you wouldn't
do this" I said, "Well you should have thought of that before you stole from me", and slammed
down the phone on her.
So, here it is!!! Please, please please pass it on to everyone you can possibly think of. I paid RM250.00 dollars for this...I don't want Famous Amos to ever get another cent off of this recipe.....
Recipe may be halved:
2 cups butter
4 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups brown sugar
5 cups blended oatmeal (measure oatmeal & blend in blender to a fine powder)
24 oz. chocolate chips
1 tsp. salt
18 oz. Cadbury bar (grated)
4 eggs
2 tsp. baking powder
3 cups chopped nuts (your choice)
2 tsp. vanilla
cream the butter and both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla; mix together with flour, oatmeal, salt,
baking powder, and soda. Add chocolate chips, Cadbury bar and nuts. Roll into balls and place
two inches apart on a cookie sheet.. bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees. Makes 122 cookies...

The Spirit of Singaporeans
received this from email...
One day a plane crash into an unchartered forest. there were a handful of survivors, each from a different nationality. (due to eroded memory it's down to only - japanese, chinese, german, american, french, mexican and singaporean)
they wandered through the thick undergrowth and eventually reach civillisation. a tribe to be exact. unfortunately for them the tribe is hostile and captured them.
tribe leader: the prophecy is true!!!! 7 outlanders have arrived! the doomsday is near! we must make an Ark with their skins n cross the rivers to find a new home in far away lands!!!
and so, to honor their human sacrifice, each survivor is allowed to die according to their customs.
The tribe executor went up to the mexican with an array of weapons. The mexican snatched the american's wallet and escape. But was speared to death while crossing their tribal border.
The german, all solemn, picked up a handgun, without saying anything, shot himself in the head.
The fat american kid went rapping "yo, dats no cool nigga, yo!" picks up the handgun, and starts shooting blindly at the tribal warriors, missing all his shots. "oh fuck" he says as the tribal warriors speared him to death.
The french starts scolding the tribal warrior and refuse to do anything. The warrior was so furious with his stuck up attitude and slit the french's throat.
the japanese, very quickly snatched a samurai sword, slashing the warrior and 2 of his bodyguards, then commit senpukku.
the chinese, all furious, grabbed a sabre, and using his chinese kungfu, killed 12 tribal warriors before being defeated.
Having so many of his men died to asians, the tribal leader ordered maximum security when they come to the singaporean, who closely resembles the japanese and chinese.
the singaporean reject the array of weapons. took out a set of cutlery he stolen from the plane, and start stabbing him self ALL OVER. all the while mumbling something repeatedly as if in a trance.
the tribe was shocked. they have never seen such a way of dying and cannot fathom what reason could give birth to such a custom. and so the tribal leader finally can't bear it and asked,"WHY? WHY SO PAINFULLY? WHY ALL THIS MADNESS?"
the singaporean, still stabbing himself all over the body, says...
"KNNBCCB! USE OUR SKINS MAKE BOAT RIGHT? I HOPE YOUR BOAT SINK AH!!!!!!"

the singaporean reject the array of weapons. took out a set of cutlery he stolen from the plane, and start stabbing him self ALL OVER. all the while mumbling something repeatedly as if in a trance.
the tribe was shocked. they have never seen such a way of dying and cannot fathom what reason could give birth to such a custom. and so the tribal leader finally can't bear it and asked,"WHY? WHY SO PAINFULLY? WHY ALL THIS MADNESS?"
the singaporean, still stabbing himself all over the body, says...
"KNNBCCB! USE OUR SKINS MAKE BOAT RIGHT? I HOPE YOUR BOAT SINK AH!!!!!!"
WASH THE CAN DRINK FIRST
received this from email... do take note & clean the can drink before drinking it...
This is Serious!
This incident happened recently in North Texas .
A woman went boating one Sunday taking with her some cans of coke which she put into the refrigerator of the boat... On Monday she was taken to the hospital and placed in the Intensive Care Unit. She died on Wednesday.
The autopsy concluded she died of Leptospirosis. This was traced to the can of coke she drank from, not using a glass. Tests showed that the can was infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis.
Rat urine contains toxic and deathly substances. It is highly recommended to thoroughly wash the upper part of all soda cans before drinking out of them. The cans are typically stocked in warehouses and transported straight to the shops without being cleaned.
A study at NYCU showed that the tops of all soda cans are more contaminated than public toilets (I.e.).. Full of germs and bacteria. So wash them with water before putting them to the mouth to avoid any kind of fatal accident.

How Smart is your right foot?
You have to try this please, it takes 2 seconds.. I could not believe this!!!
It is from an orthopaedic surgeon...............This will boggle your mind and you will keep you trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't.
It's pre-programmed in your brain!
1. Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY) and while sitting at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.
2.. Now, while doing this, draw the number '6' in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction.
I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it! You and I both know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already done so.

一年级小朋友的作文，吐死无数老师
星期一到了……小英在交完作业後，中午马上被老师叫去罚站，附加念500遍「我以後不
敢编谎话欺骗老师了」。
why？何这名老师要残忍的对待这名柔弱的小学生？我们来瞧瞧她的作文是怎麽写的……

星期日
今天是礼拜日，虽然昨天去海洋公园玩到晚上11:00多，可是今天我们起了个大
早，就到海洋公园旁边的太平山去摘水果，因为奶奶跟爷爷就住在太平山。
我们到了太平山下後，就鞋子脱了开始爬山，大约1分钟就到山顶了。山顶上的空气
很好，爷爷带我们去他的果园。
哇……爷爷的果园好大，种了好多果树，有西瓜树、草莓树、菠萝树……因为我太小
了爬不上树，爷爷就爬上西瓜树，摘了一颗最大的西瓜丢给爸爸，爸爸用一只手就接
起来了！
果园还有很多长在地上的水果，像苹果、梨子、椰子等等……爷爷摘了一些椰
子，用手把椰子皮剥掉，去籽，然後分给每个人吃。椰子好好吃喔！我吃了20几
个。表弟还拿椰子丢我的脸，痛死了！
吃完了水果大餐，我们到太平山旁边的喜玛拉雅山去玩，听老师说喜玛拉雅山是
世界上最高的山。
果然老师没有骗我们，我跟表弟爬呀爬，大概爬了2分钟才到山顶，我热死了。
後来我们还是觉得很热，就到山顶泡温泉。好冰凉的温泉哦～喜玛拉雅山真是个好
地方。
後来表弟问我有没有钱，他看到山顶附近有卖麦当劳。死表弟，每次都跟我借
钱！
我们还在买的时候，听到妈妈在太平山那里喊我们回家，只好依依不舍的走了太
平山跟喜玛拉雅山真是个好玩的地方，我以後还要叫爸爸、妈妈带我们来玩。
爸爸说如果这次考试，我第一名，这个星期日，他还要带我去东京、北京、南京
去玩，我最想去西京，因为我表妹就住在西京。
她说其实课本是骗人的，西京有比喜玛拉雅山更高的山，大概要爬3分钟，上面还
有很大的夜市跟儿童乐园，还有清澈的小溪。
我一定要好好用功然後叫爸爸带我去这些地方玩。

我赶快叫姊姊出来，姊姊看了也吃了一斤，破囗道：「真没公德心！这麽没水

妈妈知道後也出来看，同样也吃了一斤，叫道：「作孽喔！」

Doctor aren't supposed to laugh...
Doctor, I have a problem to consult you, but you aren't supposed to laugh...
Of course I won't laugh, said the lady doctor, I'm a professional. In over twenty years I've never laughed at a patient.
Okay, then, said Fred, and he proceeded to drop his trousers, revealing the tiniest 'man thingy' she had ever seen - it was smaller than the a AAA battery.
Unable to control herself, the doctor started giggling, then fell to the floor laughing.
Five minutes later she was able to struggle to her feet and regain her composure.
I am so sorry, she said. I don't know what came over me. On my honor as a doctor and a lady, I promise it won't happen again. Now, tell me, what seems to be the problem?
It's SWOLLEN, Fred replied.
The doctor WHAT! OMG OMG OMG . Laughing sooo hard, she nearly die!

Strategy
received this from email... smart smart...
This story happened in UK:
Ahmed and Hamid are both beggars at several motorway services in England.
Poor Hamid typically only collects £2 to £3 a day, whereas Ahmed brings home a suitcase full of £10 notes every day.
Hamid consults Ahmed. Ahmed says, "Look at your sign. It says, "I have no work, a wife and six kids to support."
Britons who see that do not feel as if they have accomplished anything by giving you money. You will still have no job and a large family. Now look at my sign."
So Hamid looks up and Ahmed's sign reads: "I only need another £10 to move back to Pakistan"
