Friday Escapade (Nov 4, 2010)

QUOTE-OF-THE-WEEK

"Every single press conference is even worse than the last one. He's talking about things that he doesn't know. And some people cannot see a priest on a mountain of sugar.” – the war of words continues between Rafa Benitez (former Liverpool manager) and Roy Hodgson (current Liverpool manager)

JOKE-OF-THE-WEEK

So ya know, I've been taking these kung-fu classes lately. I must say, they are great. Teach you how to be as powerful as a tiger, as quick as a monkey, as smart as a dragon. Why just the other day, these guys came up to me with a knife and demanded money. So, I turned into a chicken and ran!!!!!!

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK

Into the holiday season, it starts with the Festival of Lights

Another holiday, falls on a Friday some more, what sheer delight

Time to sit back and relax, there are three days before Monday is in sight

Hey, what do you know, there is another holiday waiting for us in a fortnight …..

QUOTE-OF-THE-WEEK

Steve Bruce, the manager of Sunderland, remains an admirer of Sir Alex Ferguson, 68, and the way he has built on his former club’s (Manchester United) attacking traditions over the last 24 years.

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK
aaah……..today is our RMD Dinner day !!

Asked to wear the polka dot again after 30 years, she might say "Never"

Those were the days when men from RMD were dancing to "Thriller"

The one who suggested RMD guys to wear check shirts now looks extremely "Clever"

Come on girls, let's go back in time and relive your youth for the sake of our RMD “Dinner” !!

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK
A perfect love story to end the week……..

“Childhood sweethearts tie the knot 53 years later”


A story that over the next hundred years, could never get stale

A story where after 53 years, this man finally found his holy grail

An amazing story that could have come out of a fairy tale

An amazing story of what fate holds for you when everything else fails

QUOTE-OF-THE-WEEK
Found this really meaningful quote in the Berita UOB # 19


"We reap a reward merely in the act of helping others.

We never know how, or if, that reward will come back to us.

Helping is the reward; none other is needed nor better.“

~ Terry Goodkind, author

JOKE-OF-THE-WEEK

The boss had listened in sympathetic silence as Mario went through the reasons why he needed, and felt he deserved, a raise. Then, with a compassionate smile, the CEO patted he younger man on the shoulder. “Yes, Mario,” he said kindly, “I know you can’t get married on the salary I’m paying you… and some day you’ll thank me for it.”

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK
Slogging for a living for years, when is this going to end, this misery

Finding a way to escape from this mundane cycle of life is still a mystery

Buying 4D three times a week, thought of hitting the jackpot is just plain foolery

But dreams do come true after all as someone did manage to win RM47M in a lottery

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK
Sex and the ‘money boys’ in the city - they are referred to as “money boys” and they serve sex to other men.

This is no laughing matter, no - this is not a lark

Right in front of our office is our own Jurassic Park

No dinosaurs are in sight, instead some unnatural service is their trademark

Just for RM80, these boys will gladly welcome you to Jalan Raja Laut’s new hallmark

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK
It’s Hari Raya tomorrow and we also have a 3-day break……..


A month of fasting is almost up, how fast time has “melayang”

Time to take out from the cabinet, the most beautiful “selendang”

Among all the delicious cookies, must not forget those crispy “kuih loyang”

Time to go into the kitchen and whip up some delicious “ayam rendang”



JOKE-OF-THE-WEEK
A young man came home from the office and found his bride sobbing convulsively.

"I feel terrible," she told him. "I was pressing your suit and I burned a big hole in the seat of your trousers."

"Forget it," consoled her husband. "Remember that I've got an extra pair of pants for that suit."

"Yes, and it's lucky you have," said the woman, drying her eyes. "I used them to patch the hole."
