lunchtime humour

After numerous rounds of 'We don't even know if Osama bin Laden is still alive', Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his own hand writing to let him know he was still in the game.
Bush opened the letter and it contained a single line of coded message:

370H-SSV-0773H

Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condoleezza Rice. Condi and her aides had not a clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.
No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, and then to MI6.

Eventually they asked the Mossad (Israeli intelligence) for help.
Within a minute the Mossad emailed the White House with this reply:
'Tell the President he's holding the note upside down.

Leaves no more...

Now u see it....


Now you don't...

The Happening

Mark Wahlberg is always a pleasure to watch. He picks good scripts, or rather he acts in the kinds of movies tht i like watching. i put him in the league of actors i'd blindly watch a movie for... the likes of him are Kevin Spacey, Johnny Depp, John Travolta, and Steve Carrell. Each of these actors are good with different genres of films of course.

I recommend the Happening. it's not Shyamalan's best, but it's creepy enough.

Spoiler alert!

Weird things started happening in NYC. People spoke funny, they lost their sense of direction, and then they started committing suicide. They fell off buildings like a bricks, shot themselves in the head, lie underneath a tractor, banged their heads against walls... it was all gruesome.

Turns out that it was caused by the plants, they released some sort of toxins which screws up the brain. THey were taking revenge on humankind for all the harm we've done to the environment...

After watching the show... i saw this in the morning, just outside my house, right smack in the middle of CBD, is this even allowed? i'm gonna say goodbye to blue skies pretty soon.

Burger and Drinks

I love a good burger. But I've stopped (or rather cut down) on fast food after i watched Fast Food Nation. So now i only eat expensive burgers. Expensive= meat with no ecoli=i am not eating animal shit.

So I was very eager to try this new burger chain down at Sanlitun called Let's Burger. I ordered cheeseburger...



And this is blue mountain chicken burger...



To be honest, the burger is not bad despite the reviews claiming tht it's not value for money. The bread is not too heavy, the meat patty is tasty although it's a little small. It's about 58RMB (no fries) per burger. But the place is super smoky cos of the poor ventilation. It's ideal for takeout, not dine-in.

So after dinner, Mountain man and i went to Element Fresh for this open bar (read FREE DRINKS) thing with "work associates"... Our friends came by to join us later in the evening. it was all fun... especially when it's free.

all i want for christmas is...

a pink DSLR...

CANON DID U HEAR THAT?

i was catching up with AAA last night. I was so happy she came to visit! i brought along my camera all, but then i realise i didn't insert memory card. kwa kwa... lucky she brought along her pink Sony...

then we got onto the topic of pink colour DSLRs, now i really want one. but i just googled and there isn't any pink DSLRs!!!

The ideal camera would be primarily black body, and some parts can be fuschia pink. Not fully pink cos it'll be very kiddy. Oh oh and then the buttons are made of diamante. tee hee!!

more muffins!

A while ago i saw Karen Cheng's recipe for white chocolate raspberry muffins... It sounded damn delicious...I've been dreaming about it for a while but i had been so busy with work. So yesterday i finally found time to bake.

Unfortunately it wasn't one of those very smooth kitchen days...

I somehow had the impression tht toblorone is white chocolate. When i opened the pack i was shocked to see milk chocolate. Have i not eaten toblorone for that long!??

But n'mind... small issue. THEN... i bang my head against the cupboard door cos it was ajar, ON THE SAME SPOT where i hit myself 2 days ago. See, this is why i i dun have car licen. i'll be putting pple's live in danger. I swear i saw birdies flying around me for a moment...

Anyway this was the outcome. it's ok la. edible. but i won't say it's very nice.

Lovely trees...

the trees are the most charming this season... The leaves will turn yellow, and with a gust of wind they'll dance gracefully till they land on the ground. Beautiful...
