I was waiting for my friends to arrive for lunch when I saw this guy balancing 2 trays of eggs with one hand. With the recent focus on poultry shortage my immediate thought was, “Quick! Knock that guy out and take his eggs!”.
Sometimes I don’t understand the things that go through my mind.
Like what the commentator was saying, weird, baffling, defies reason.
What he was saying was about the decisions made by the judges. There were many instances where points were given when it was not supposed to be given, not given when it was supposed to be given, same thing for the warnings and penalties.
Often, both competitors would delay the match by not engaging or attacking but the referee would only issue warnings and penalties for one. Although he took turns with them the practice should be that both be given warnings. Throughout the broadcast, I saw only one referee doing so.
And the scoring, sometimes a competitor would score but nobody could understand how, even the person who got the score, you can actually see the baffled but pleased look.
But overall, the feel of the sport is not like what it use to be. Maybe they should change the rules to discourage the waiting during matches.

How eight pixels cost Microsoft millions
They should have used HSBC.
Also, take a look at this statement by Tom Edwards (M$),
“Some of our employees, however bright they may be, have only a hazy idea about the rest of the world,”
I think he’s worse since he must have a pretty hazy idea about what goes on in his work place to have so many boo-boos happen with regards to what he’s suppose to be in charge of.
Look at this…
I think the IOC members who approved on not allowing competitors to blog and rejecting people who bring in the wrong brands should now go to the streets, go down on their knees and beg people to take free tickets to watch.
Olympians largely barred from blogging
I wonder what other demonstrations of “Look at how dumb I am!” are the IOC going to come up with?
There’s something about having ice cream on a cold rainy day. I don’t know how to put it into words but it’s seems pretty cool (pun intended). It’s like my friends going up to some place with an artic like weather condition in winter and looking for ice cream.
It just rained for the better part of the day and I just had a 1/4 tub of ice cream. Not that I’m feeling hot or anything, in fact, I was feeling rather cold today. I could never understand why people would eat or crave for ice cream in a condition that dictates otherwise, even when it just happened to me. I wonder what I’ll do next.
Very old joke during army days….
3 generals from 3 countries including Singapore met up for a talk cock and bragging session. They were bragging about how brave their soldiers were.
General 1: My soldier brave, I tell him jump from ship, he’ll jump.
He orders one of his soldiers to jump from the aircraft carrier and the soldier jumps and plummets to his death in the murky sea.
General 2: My soldier better! Ask him jump off a cliff, he’ll do it without thought.
He orders one of his soldiers to jump off a cliff and the soldier makes the ultimate sacrifice for his country plunging into the dark ravines far below.
Singapore general: I’ll show you two!
Then he orders one of his men to jump off a plane without a parachute. The soldier looks at the general, shows him the middle finger, said, “You siao ah?!!! KNNCCB! F***ING MORON! WHY DON’T YOU JUMP YOURSELF??!!!!” and walks off.
I’ve got this tear jerking crave for fishball noodle from this stall that has just re-opened after the hawker centre’s renovation. I’ve been trying in vain for one week to starve off this crave. The shop seems to be never open when I’m there!! Oh woe!
Teleportation goes long distance
Beam me up scotty!!! But I think we’re still a long way from getting rid of our cars.
Just wondering if anyone might be interested in donating a system 3 or 4 aircon system to me?
Looks pretty cool. Like everything rolled into one. Kind of like Samsung combine with clie.
842242 - Some programs seem to stop working after you install Windows XP Service Pack 2
I’ve got to hand it to M$. This latest patch is going to be the ultimate tactic of shirking responsibility that has ever happen in the history of software development.
Market complains to M$ about the lack of security. So now they come up with the Service Pack 2, which turns on the firewall by default and will block off most network services. Take a look at the list via the link above and you will know.
The most glaring one is the web server (IIS) not being able to respond to client requests. What will this mean? Well, they’re simply telling us that they’ve made it safe but if we turn it on in order for others to browse sites that we’re hosting, they won’t be responsible because we’re the ones that open up the vulnerability.
Do note that the a bulk of the security complaints come from companies who use M$ (IIS) as their web server. It now absolves them from bearing any responsibility on issues relating to security arising from the web server.
The following is likely to happen in the future.
User: “Hello, M$ tech support? Someone just hacked into my web server via an IIS vulnerability despite your SP2. Seems like there’s an issue with your webserver.”
M$ demon (snickering): “Oh really? Did you open up port 80 of the firewall for your IIS?”
User: “Duh, I need to do that for my clients to browse my website.”
M$ demon: “There! That’s your problem!! Default access is off, you turned it on, so it’s not our problem.”
User: “What???!!!!”
M$ demon: “Thank you for calling M$, have a nice day!”
DIAL TONE…
I think couples who can’t bear the responsibility of having kids shouldn’t have them. Especially when they go drop off their kids and demand that their parents take care of the kids whenever they feel that they can’t deal with it all.
Understanding that with the way lives are today, it’s difficult to have to work to make ends meet and take care of kids at the same time but I believe it’s the attitude that matters. I especially despise those parents who leave their kids with their own parents for the work week and does so for the weekends as well because they still want to have their weekend fun. If your don’t love your kid enough to want to be with him/her, you shouldn’t be having them in the first place. Selfish pricks!
I was drinking a glass of water when I suddenly felt that the water was delicious. Didn’t know that water could ever be delicious. Food yes, but plain water?
