The End Of the World ..... ( The World Cup that is ... :p )

The dream is over .... ;-(

Brazil is out of the world cup , thanks to the talismanic skills of Zidane and his merry  band of musketeers ... good show by the French btw . Congrats .

On the other hand , i can get back to some semblance of my normal life , now that Brazil has ended their run ... whew .... :p

I will be in Johor for a meeting next week , and maybe a round of Golf at Daiman . Anybody from Johor here thats game for a cup of coffee / tea maybe ? :p . Do contact me and maybe we can arrange to meet ..... :p 

Best regards ,

Critical Juncture - World Cup Sabbatical !!

Peeps ,

Since the World Cup is now at the critical juncture stage , i am announcing my complete sabbatical from everyday world . I will now go on "hibernate mode" and live my life in front of my 42 inch plasma TV ( i have all the importants numbers in my phone memory = Pizza Huts / Macdonalds / Dominos deliveries ) . Do not call / sms / email / YM / MSN / Blackberry / Google Talk / Blueberry me during this crucial period , as i won't be able to respond ..... :p

But for really really really important matters , just contact my link / adik angkat /gf tiri  to the outside world , Jing Jing ( pic below, from TARC ) . A few of you still have her number i hope , but only for important matters ... ( footbal related especially ) ... Just give her a ring and she will convey the info to me ... :p 

  

I'll be back to my normal ( blogging ) self after the Finals ... Take care and all the best !!

regards ,

Alert - Fake 50 Cents Coins

Hiya peeps , just wanted to update you guys regarding the fake 50 cents coins thats been circulating in our market for quite a while now . As a banker among us here , it is my moral duty to stress this matter to all here ... :p

The ways to recoqnise the fake coins is as per below ...

a ) The "wau" grafted at the back of the coin is not as detailed as the original coin .

b ) The sound of the fake coins if dropped has more "zing" compared to the originals . ( but of course this is the Mr Bean way of checking for the original .... haha )

c ) And lastly , the fake coins can be attracted with a magnet ( pics above ) . This is probably due to the high content of iron inside the fake coins .

Be alert ! . Catch ya later alligator .... :p

regards ,

Halftime !! Football Break , Iron Chef PedangTimur !! :p


Well , since the World Cup started , my social life has deterioted quite well and knowing when enough is enough , it is time to talk of other things ... which means , other things besides football ... :p ( since Brazil are not playing anyway ) , so folks , today is your lucky day , cause "Iron Chef" PedangTimur is gonna show you how , how to cook an egg , using your mobile phones !!!  .... :p

::Cooking Eggs Using The Mobile/Cell Phone ... ::

I can already picture the horrified look on Funbunz and Kooki's face when they read this .. haha , but save your comments until the end of this posts ... :p The ingredients that we will need is as follows :

a) An Egg . ( duh ... obviously )
b) Two Mobile phones ( any model )
c) An Egg Holder
d) A tape recorder / mp3 player to simulate human voices ... Are we ready ? Do refer to the picture below on how to do the setup ... :p


As you can see , we're using the microwave frequency from the two phones that we put facing each other and leave on the "talk" mode . The voice recorder in the background of the picture is used to simulate human voices so that the "talk" mode is always on ... :p

The results .... :p ,
15 mins : The egg is warm ..,
30 mins : The egg is very warm ...,
45 mins : The egg is quite hot ...,
60 mins : The egg is very hot ...,
63 mins : We switch off the phones to check out the results ...,


Well well folks , as you can see , we have a perfectly cooked egg !! Am i an "Iron Chef" or am i an "Iron Chef" eh ? :p So based on the cooking demonstration above , we have come out with the following observations ...

a) It is very costly to cook an egg using mobile phones ( around RM 6.00 )
b) It takes more than an hour to cook an egg using the mobile phones ...
c) And for males , don't place the mobile phones in your pants front pockets ..... ;p

So my advice to frequent mobile phone users ... use your phone sparingly and if possible don't talk more than an hour on it ... "something else" just might get cooked too ...

regards !! ( and back to the World Cup !! ) :p

What The Heck .... :p

Personal Update : Lets face it guys , after only 4 days of World Cup action , i'm already a "zombie" at work , my bio clock is all topsy turvy ,  i didn't get enought beauty sleep and my diet has gone from bad to worse ( eating  roti canai at 3:00 am in the morning )  heh heh heh ... ain't life great ?? :p

The way things are going now , i should be able to call in sick this coming Thursday ( MC ) . Can't wait to see Brazil playing tonight ... by the way the world cup is also an excellent excuse for not shaving ... yeah ... the "eglesias" look is in folks !! :p

Went to Kangar early this morning and a "strange" structure by the roadside caught my eye . I hope somebody can shed some light on this matter and tell me What The Heck is this thing ......  :p


                   
 

Oh well , back to the rat race .... :p
