Water Thief?

Just my assumption

I saw a fire department's water hydrant along the roadside with an additional hose attached to one of the outlets. hmm... I was wondering if somone has attached this purposely to get free water from it. Anyway, just my little piece of assumption. I hope there is a water hyrant outside of my place so that I could get free and strong stream of water to wash my car. Where can I get one of these hoses.

The hose was attached to one of the outlets on the water hydrant. With the other end of the hose hidden under the metal lid, so that no one will see it.

No pain no gain. I am sure the person who attached the hose had made a painstaking effort to open up this huge cover. It is not easy to get free water though...

Let's open the metal lid to see what the hose looks like. Ya, it is a hose, the source of "Free" water

One of the economic theories says:
There is no free lunch - Everything in this world comes with a cost. Even if you are too lucky to pick up something valuable on the floor, don't you ever think it is free when you have no need to pay for it. There is definitely a cost associated with the thing you pick up. Someone might have dropped it, and that person has to bear the cost for losing it. The cost does not come to you, but it goes to another person. Come to think of it, Do you still think it is free?

Win Win Deal

I was browsing through the internet in search for a suitable property to rent on behalf of my friend and there was such eye catching deal for ladies, entitled: "Free Room available for lady in KL/PJ". I thought such offer could only be seen in western countries where casual se x is widely practised, guess what, It has come to our shore, right here!! This "landlord" is offering a free room for ladies to stay in exchange of her "services".

Eye cathing deal, a win win deal between the landlord and the potential lady tenant

The description is like this:

"Room available for female only, No rent payable but in exchange for personal adul t services to a good looking guy.

If interested, please send details and pic to xxx@xxx.com"
What a deal...

Something extra, this lady has put up her pic to get a place to rent. Probably she knows that a lot of people are choosy for housemates. Look does matter!

My Company Annual Dinner

* Pictures were taken by Kok Hau, Jack Thang and William

Trip to Cherating

Evening walk at the beach

Stranded by the waves

Waste water flowing from restaurants to the sea.

We see pollution, they see economy of scale

The reflection from the waste water

Retired Ang moh couple, a leisure walk

Armed with goggles, ready for sea battle

Rules of thumb to impress a lady at Cherating

Grab a chance to get nearer to your target

Talk in term of her interests, be humorous

Do not talk negative things, she will get an impression that you are a big time complainer

If you can't manage to break the ice within 5 minutes, the initial bond will be broken and you end up wasting your valuable time

The Circle of Life

Humans, from all walks of life and all kinds of background, live in a circle which turns repeatedly. No matter who you are, you are required to go through the process of birth, aging, illness and death, and the process will repeat endlessly as long as you stay in the circle. You may leave the circle without having the need to go through the process again but the question is, how? Not many could manage to do that...

Some religions believe that in the circle of life, when a life ends, the spirit will leave the body and enter a new body to start a another new life. He or she will repeat the cycle of birth, aging, illness and death again. The new body could be a human body, or an animal body. The decision on whether the new body is a human body or an animal body, depends very much on how the spirit behaves in the previous life. To leave the circle, you would have to go through a hard time to "cultivate" your spirit and "upgrade" it to a higher level, probably, one in a million could manage to succeed.

Even Elton John buys such idea. In one of his songs, "Circle of Life", he mentions that the circle of life moves us through despair, hope, faith and love. It moves us again and again until we unwind the circle (which means, we no longer belongs to the circle).

It's the Circle of Life

And it moves us all

Through despair and hope

Through faith and love

Till we find our place

On the path unwinding

Full lyrics

Have you got the first class ticket to the circle of life?

Her circle of life

My circle of life

The ticket to the ride, determines who you are, erm, or probably, what you are

You can choose to leave the circle, but not many could manage to do that...

Spam

In the cyber world, I would need to clean up junk Emails (spam Emails) every now and then. The worst case is, It has also become my daily routine to clean up the physical mail box at my rented house about once in 3 days. These unsolicited advertisement leaflets will flood the mailbox and keep piling up in the mailbox everyday until I couldn't differentiate which are important and which are not, especially when important mails are mixed in between, eg. Bills, official letters..etc. I would probably leave behind some of the important bills in between the leaflets, which are due.

If there are only few leaflets, probably I will go through the leaflets one by one, but not huge pile of it.What is the effectiveness of this kind of advertisement strategy if the leaflets come flooding the mailbox and nobody is going to read it? Which one should we focus on?

Please, if something has become ineffective, why don't those people do it differently, rather than wasting your timeand our precious resources?

Mail box which is full of "spam"

Which should I focus on?

Plumber?

Or something sexy?

Ya true, something worth focusing on, keke

What is the point of this kind of advertisement strategy if the leaflets will end up being in the "Spam folder"?
