一個母親一生撒的8個謊言

兒時,小男孩家很窮,吃飯時,飯常常不夠吃,母親就把自己碗裏的飯分給孩子吃。母親說:孩子們,快吃吧,我不餓! 母親撒的第一個謊  
男孩長身體的時候,勤勞的母親常用周日休息時間,去縣郊農村河溝裏撈些魚來給孩子們補鈣。魚很好吃,魚湯也很鮮。孩子們吃魚的時候,母親就在一旁啃魚骨頭,用舌頭舔魚骨頭上的肉漬。男孩心疼,就把自己碗裏的魚夾到母親碗裏,請母親吃魚。母親不吃,母親又用筷子把魚夾回男孩的碗裏。母親說:孩子,快吃吧,我不愛吃魚!母親撒的第二個謊
上初中了,為了繳夠男孩和哥姐的學費,當縫紉工的母親就去居委會領些火柴盒拿回家來,晚上糊了掙點分分錢補點家用。有個冬天,男孩半夜醒來,看到母親還躬著身子在油燈下糊火柴盒。男孩說:母親,睡了吧,明早您還要上班呢。 母親笑笑說:孩子,快睡吧,我不睏!母親撒的第三個謊
高考那年,母親請了假,天天站在考點門口為參加高考的男孩助陣。時逢盛夏,烈日當頭,固執的母親在烈日下一站就是幾個小時。考試結束的鈴聲響了,母親迎上去遞過一杯用罐頭瓶泡好的濃茶,叮囑孩子喝了,茶亦濃,情更濃。望著母親乾裂的嘴唇和滿頭的汗珠,男孩將手中的罐頭瓶反遞過去請母親喝。母親說:孩子,快喝吧,我不渴!母親撒的第四個謊
父親病逝之後,母親又當爹又當娘,靠著自己在縫紉社裏那點微薄收入,含辛茹苦拉扯著幾個孩子,供他們念書,日子過得苦不堪言。胡同路口電線杆下修表的李叔叔知道後,大事小事就找岔過來打個幫手,搬搬煤,挑挑水,送些錢糧來幫補男孩的家裏。人非草木,孰能無情。左鄰右舍對此看在眼裏,記在心裏,都勸母親再嫁,何必苦了自己。然而母親多年來卻守身如玉,始終不嫁,別人再勸,母親也斷然不聽,母親說:我不愛!母親撒的第五個謊
男孩和她的哥姐大學畢業參加工作後,下了崗的母親就在附近農貿市場擺了個小攤維持生活。身在外地工作的孩子們知道後就常常寄錢回來補貼母親,母親堅決不要,並將錢退了回去。母親說:我有錢!母親撒的第六個謊
男孩留校任教兩年,後又考取了美國一所名牌大學的博士生,畢業後留在美國一家科研機構工作,待遇相當豐厚,條件好了,身在異國的男孩想把母親接來享享清福,卻被老人回絕了。母親說:我不習慣!母親撒的第七個謊
晚年,母親患了重病,住進了醫院,遠在大西洋彼岸的男孩乘飛機趕回來時,術後的母親已是奄奄一息了。母親老了,望著被病魔折磨得死去活來的母親,男孩悲痛欲絕,潸然淚下。母親卻說:孩子,別哭,我不疼。母親撒的最後一個謊

I hit 2 snatch thieves with my car

I hit two snatch thieves with my car yesterday afternoon at 3:30pm in front of Malvest building at Bukit Jambul Penang. I was just come out from Alliance Bank, then paying my parking ticket. Get into my car with my mom and drove off, then before taking the ‘U’ turn down to Jalan Tun Dr. Awang, I saw a motorbike stop in the middle of the road. I then slow down my car in order for the motorbike to drive off of at least get to the side and let me pass.

Beside the bike, there is a Kancil and the door at the driver’s site is wide open. There is a man pulling something violently inside the car. My instinct tells me both these two man are snatch thieves, my mom also saying the same thing to me at that time. The distance between my car and the snatch thief’s bike is about 10 meters away, and without hesitate, I accelerate my car and hit both snatch thieves on their back. The bike nearly falls to the ground, the other one fall to the ground. Both of them panic when they get up, the thief with the bike speed off when I try to hit it the second time but I failed (my car’s horse power not good enough else I have had hit it again). The other one ran slowly across the road toward the Malay ‘Kampung’ area and disappear. I do get out of my car and shout at those Malay guys sitting across the road to catch that bastard. I’m not sure whether they heard what I shouted and they just watch that guy ran slowly passing by them.

About 10 or 20 seconds later some of the guys there started to chase. They come back to grab some stick later and go after that thief again. That thief manage to get away, but I think he already sustain some injury as he can’t ran fast. Later I heard from the Malay who chase after the thief saying that bastard got ‘parang’ with him, that’s why they came back to grab some stick and go after him.

The victim was an Indian pregnant woman, she was going for her routine check-up at the clinic. She went back to the car to get something from the car according to her. She looked very shocked and can’t speak a word when the doctor and someone in the clinic trying to help her. She lost one necklace and sustains little back pain. The doctor calls police and make report after that.

How bad is the impact? Look at the photos below for yourself. The Kancil’s door at the driver site had open 90 degree widely thanks to my effort to hit the snatch thieves. My car’s front bumper and number plate also damage a bit.







排汗和排尿的差別

【您知道為什麼馬拉松選手不得癌症嗎?】

德國體育醫學龍頭艾倫斯特〈譯音〉博士發現,所有運動選手當中,唯獨馬拉松選手沒有罹患癌症的病例。因此艾倫斯特博士為了找出不得癌症的原因,不斷的研究,結果發現了一項驚人的事實。

艾倫斯特博士採集了每天跑步 30 公里 以上的馬拉松選手的汗水,分析其汗水的成份,結果發現汗水中含有鎘、鉛、銅、鎳等之重金屬物質。

艾倫斯特博士下的結論是 「每天跑 30 公里 以上的馬拉松選手,自體內深處排出大量汗水的同時,亦將體內累積的致癌成份〝重金屬〞排出體外,徹底去除癌症的根源,因此馬拉松選手是不會得癌症。」

根據以上的研究結論,艾倫斯特博士發表了「以排汗的方式,徹底去除體內的累積物,可預防癌症」的研究報告,艾倫斯特博士強調的「想要健康長壽,就要一天一次大量排汗。」這句話是絕對值得信賴的。


【您知道排汗市場如此龐大?】

能量之國韓國的排汗市場一年約新台幣 6000 億 ,您知道為什麼一年有幾億人次的韓國國民到黃土能量房去排汗嗎?在沒有任何廣告宣傳的情況下,短短 15 年內形成了如此龐大的市場全靠體驗後的口碑相傳。

因為體驗過後發現 能量排汗無論對慢性病患的病症、促進血液循環或皮膚美容,以及維持苗條的健康身材上皆具有驚人的功效。


【出汗能夠排泄體內有害物質】

對身體而言,為何出汗特別重要呢?排泄體內不需要物質的基本功能,就是排便、排尿與出汗。其中, 汗具有排泄體內疲勞物質或對人體有害的重金屬、毒素的重要作用。雖然尿也會排出重金屬,但是排出功能卻遠不及汗。

亦即藉由出汗,能夠排出大量的重金屬。汗也具有調節體溫的重要作用。

全身健康的出汗,就能夠強化現代最欠缺的體溫調節功能與自律神經。汗從體表氣化,令人得到爽快感,對精神也有很大的幫助。藉著氣化熱消耗熱量,能夠提升代謝力,減少體脂肪,有助於消除肥胖。

對身體而言具有重要作用的汗,不會對身體造成負擔,全身出汗,就能夠強化自律神經,提升代謝力,排出老舊廢物與毒素,對於美容與健康都有幫助。

'YODA' the hamster

Jo's hamster, YODA, pass away this morning. She sms me and told me about it, then I called back to her. She sound very sad and I can hear her crying when she tell me YODA didn't move when she feed it with some food. She will stock up YODA's food every morning before she went to work and after work. Few days ago I already sense YODA is not right coz I seen it taking deep breath several times continuously. Another hamster, name SKYWALKER, died two months ago. When I purchase these 2 hamsters for Jo, she ask me to give them name. I name them YODA & SKYWALKER as I couldn't think of any. At that time I remember I just watch StarWars movie so I just pick the name from the movie. Hope Jo is alright tonight when I see her. If she wanted to buy new hamster, I will take her to the pet shop. But I think she doesn't want anymore, she got no time to clean the cage.

The dogs are back

Cedric, my brother-in-law, he doesn’t want my sis to feel sad after her 2 dogs went missing or kidnapped, went to bought 2 new puppies for her, a Basset Hound puppy (same breed with Bobo) and a Golden Retriever puppy. On his way back home with the new doggies, he found Bobo and Mia, the 2 missing dogs just beside the guard post at the entry/exit route to their housing area. They were left there unattended and luckily no one picks them up and takes them home, so lucky for the 2 dogs.

What my sister can figure out is, the kidnapper must have taken them to MPS (Majlis Perbandaran Selayang) where there is a contest for catching street dogs. The prize money is RM15K 13K and 11K for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. The officer at the contest must have known that Bobo is definitely not a stray dog and refuse to accept them and the 2 indian guys had no place to keep them but to return them.

I do pray to my dad on the day they went missing. I pray to my dad to take care of them and lead them home. Miracle do happen this time, or my father do watching us and protecting us. Now my sis have 4 dogs all together, 2 Basset Hound (or most people prefer to call them Hush Puppy), 1 Labrador Retriever and 1 Golden Retriever. I wish I can be with the dogs now, I can’t wait to see them all.

Maintenance problem

I was appointed the task to maintain all the computers in my office since the day I started to work in this small size company. My office have around 20 units of computers including personal computer, laptop, server, printer, etc. To maintain and keep track of all the computers is a problem for me as I don't have access to the setting of certain devices like DSL modem and router, printer, and some programmer's pc or laptop.
Purchase of new computer will definitely go thru me as I am the one who recommend which brand to purchase. But when purchase new device like switch or router, the management won't be asking my opinion at all. Instead, they will straight away go to that particular staff who always purchase these devices for them since many years ago.
Problems comes in when the newly acquired device is install and I am not taking part in the installation process, and I was not keeping the techinical information about that particular devices. Later when problem arise, I will be ask by my boss or manager to look at the problem and if possible solve. But how? Where to start from? Where to get the information I needed in order to solve it? That person who installed this always asking me back for the info he who installed it and not giving me the info at the first place right after the installation complete.
I have raise this concern of mine to the management several times, but I think their main focus is on the sales and not on other things. I was always left out or not in the office when installation of new hardware take place. Some time I get blame for not doing my job well like adding printer into the new pc of the bitch admin from engineering.

'Bobo' and 'Mia' went missing last Friday morning

My sister's two dogs, Bobo (Basset Hound, male, one and a half years old) and Mia (Labrador Retriever, female, less than one year old) went missing on last Friday morning when my brother-in-law is about to go to work. They were last seen in a car with two indian guy, I guess those two indian guy had kidnapped Bobo and Mia. I never get to see them again, unless my brother-in-law manage to find them today. My trip to KL and stay there this weekend will not be fun as they won't be around to play and swim in the pool with me. I will miss them...


Bobo, always sleep in this style... aren't he looks like a sausage!

Mia, she was just 3 months old when this photo is taken February early this year.

點解舉中指係粗口手勢

舉中指的由來是英法戰爭時,英國的長弓兵相當的強悍,讓法軍相當頭痛,因此法國君主向軍中弟兄說,如果打敗英軍,要將所有的英軍長弓兵的中指砍下來,但到了最後,法軍還是輸了,此時英軍全數舉起他們的右手,並比起中指來炫耀他們的勝利並羞辱法軍,此後比中指就被當成羞辱別的的象徵!
另外,中世紀使用弓箭武器,是用中指發射,所以亮中指,表示自己的攻擊很強.後來引申成鄙視他人. 據說,在英法百年戰爭末期,本來快戰敗的英軍,因為獲得了新的祕密武器一用紫杉(Yew)作成的長弓,而扭轉了劣勢。因長弓而損失了大量兵員的法軍,對英軍下了絕殺令,只要捕捉到了英國的弓箭手,法軍會將他們用來拉弓的右手中指斬斷,再將他們吊死。然而,法軍的宣誓並未嚇阻英軍的反撲。
最後,法軍挫敗;據說,在法軍撤退的時候,所有的英國弓箭手將右手舉起,炫耀他們依然存在的中指,並大聲喊道:"See, We can still plug the yew!Plug yew!" (看哪!我們還可以拉紫杉長弓!拉弓!)據說,經過了久遠的口語流傳,逐漸轉變成為今天的比中指手勢與 "F**k You" 的問候語。

Customer is 'THE 'KING'

A lot of company practicing customer is 'THE KING' phrase. Which means whatever customer request, we must fulfill them in anyway we can. Even their request is non-sense or impossible. My employer too, wants us to practice this. But after some time, I found this to be very ridiculous. When client found out that they are 'THE KING', they start to make all kinds of request even it's not in our business role or business nature.

One of our customers in Ipoh bought a product from us. After setting it up, I found out that the area they are going to used the product does not performed up to expectation. I further investigate and found the root cause of the problem to be insufficient coverage of Access Point (AP). I suggested to them that they need to change to a more powerful antenna or installed additional AP in that particular area. They came back to Salesman that it's our problem not telling them they have required all this in the first place.

I have done my job. I am not going to deal with this customer anymore unless my boss tells me to. They are bunch of ID-TEN-T people in this world who wants to take advantage of others. I'll let my boss handle this since they are the one who wants us to practice 'THE KING' thingy, "padan muka"…

Retarded (ID-TEN-T) driver

Imagine you are in your 40s, you drive a Perodua Kancil (small car like Smart for 2). You want to park your car into a parking lot previously occupied by a Honda Accord and you have to do a side parking. The space is about the length of Honda Accord plus 4 meters. How many times would you take to park your car perfectly into the space (I mean you try to reverse your car into the space from the side of the car infront of the space)? Two times, three times or may be four times and definitely not more than that (I assume you are had been driving for more than 10 years with good driving skill).
Last night while having dinner at McDonald Greenland, I saw a guy in his 40s, driving a Kancil with his family in the car. He tried to do side parking into a space same as I mention above, takes more than 3 times of reversing from the side line of the car infront and 2 times of adjusting the car into the perfect position. The whole thing happen for more than 5 minutes just to get the small Kancil park into the space which occupied by Honda Accord. Just in case you are not aware, the length of Honda Accord is about twice the length of Perodua Kancil.
I was watching it from the moment the Honda Accord try to move out from the space. It was a hard time for it as the front and the back is very close to each other, but the driver manage to move his car out within 30 seconds. I think the Kancil driver need to refresh his parking skill during a JPJ driving test again. Ohh... I forgot to mention, the driver is from Terengganu as the car plate is "TAG XXXX".

Police Road Block

I got into police road block 4 times last night. I never been block by police so many times since 1991 when I start driving. I wonder why the police set-up so many block last night, it almost cover all the major road from town area to my house. The only reason I can think of is because of 'mat rempit'. No wonder I didn't see much 'mat rempit' on the road, they must have been flee from the main road. If the police can do the same thing on every Saturday night and on the night before public holiday, I think the 'mat rempit' will be vanished soon.
