QUOTES-OF-THE-WEEK

2) Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It’s quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure - Thomas J. Watson

JOKES-OF-THE-WEEK
1) "All of Mel Gibson's troubles could have been avoided if he'd just made those calls with the iPhone 4.
None of them would have gone through." – Jay Leno

2) "Apple will now offer a free iPhone case for all iPhone users. It's not going to help reception, but it protects the iPhone after you throw it against the wall." – Jay Leno

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK

Coming on the heels of The Dark Knight, just opened is “Inception”
Another movie made by Christopher Nolan that is close to perfection
After watching for 2 1/2 hours, you are left with no answers but more questions
Is it real or is it a dream, you are left with nothing but more confusion

QUOTES-OF-THE-WEEK
1) “My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can.” ~ Cary Grant

JOKE-OF-THE-WEEK
"What time does the library open?" the man on the phone asked.
"Nine a.m." came the reply. "And what's the idea of calling me at home in the middle of the night to ask a question like that?"
"Not until nine a.m.?" the man asked in a disappointed voice.
"No, not till nine a.m.!" the librarian said. "Why do you want to get in before nine a.m.?"
"Who said I wanted to get in?" the man sighed sadly. "I want to get out."

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK
“Fasting month is coming, time to indulge in some keropok lekor

A month for redemption, have to stop buying empat ekor

Breaking fast must be in style, let's go to hotel nikko

A Raya present from the police, here's your belated saman ekor”

JOKES-OF-THE-WEEK
Two hilarious scenes from the movie, “Knight & Day” :

1) Roy Miller (Tom Cruise) : “Nobody follows us or I kill myself and then her!”

2) Roy Miller : Some people are gonna come looking for you now.

June Havens (Cameron Diaz) : Why?

Roy Miller : They'll tell you I'm mentally unstable and violent and dangerous and it will all sound very convincing.

June Havens : I'm already convinced.

No one can lure me to consume alcohol before that" -- Teetotal Indian grocery store owner Putul Bora buried a bottle of whisky in his garden the day after Bulgaria put Germany, his favorite team, out of the 1994 World Cup, but will have to wait at least another four years before digging it up now.

POEMS-OF-THE-WEEK

1) An exercise covering 26 million can be deemed as colossus

As two strangers approach you, hold on to your purses

2) An exciting final between Holland and Spain

After 90 mins, who will be feeling the pain

Whoever wins will be dancing in the rain

My bet is Sneijder will be patting his bald head again!!

Friday Escapade (July 2, 2010)

JOKE-OF-THE-WEEK

A man walks by the sea and suddenly hears someone yelling:
- Help, help! I’m drowning, I don’t know how to swim!
He turns around, notices a man drowning, and asks:
- Parla Italiano?
The drowning man says:
- Si, si! Parlo Italiano! Aiuto, per favore!
- You idiot! It would have been better for you to learn how to swim than to learn Italian.

QUOTES-OF-THE-WEEK

POEM-OF-THE-WEEK

This weekend is the start of the orientation week at our public universities………

Leaving your home and loved ones, your confidence are already sagging

The seniors are eagerly awaiting your arrival, welcoming you with their form of ragging

A week seems like a year, when is this going to end, you will be wailing

The seniors are very happy, they can identify the freshies they want to be marrying
