Bush’s Last State of the Union

A picture paint a thousand words. The cartoon below shows us what Bush has done to the USA. 

Before and after the speech, Bush was caught on tv walking around shaking hands, hugging and even kissing the people around him. He called people nicknames in his usual ‘joker’ character, making fun of others and himself as well.
Imagine, if you [...]

Transgender Toilets

CNN Morning Express with Robin Meade today had a report on a group of law-makers discussing on a law regarding Transgender Toilets. This got my attention quite a bit. So, if we have a transgender, which toilet does he/she goto? Are the toilets today discrimination against (transgender) sex?
Looking from the perspective of a transgender, he/she [...]

“I’d like to start a religion. That’s where the money is!”

Those were the words of L. Ron Hubbard, who wrote Dianetics and founded the religion – Scientology.
Lets talk about making money. Since the Chinese started using papermoney as a form of currency, money became a medium of exchange for goods and services that people need. Here are 2 examples: When the Intel 8088 microprocessor needed an operating [...]

Students PAID to come to class!

I believe in Education – It determines who you are & what you are going to do in life. On a larger scale, the country’s Education system determines the future of the country.
But, to the extent of paying students to come for classes, *WOW*, this really blows me away.
Two schools in Georgia USA are running a 15 week pilot program – [...]

Recession! 50 – 60% market decline?

Recession!
Are there still people who believe that we are not going into a recession yet?
This video compiles the part of the sequence of events leading to our current US economic state. It is interestingly compiled in a movie format which has captured my attention for a while… until our ”Lead Actor” appears.

Terror in War on Terror

I just saw this clip from Youtube, published slightly less than a year ago. It is saddening to see innocent lives living in terror in this War on Terror.
This video shows American Soldiers doing house raids based on information from “Intelligence” to capture the terrorists hiding amongst the civilians. During the 1950s when the Malaysians [...]

Schlumberger cutting jobs in North America

A spokesman said on Tuesday that Schlumberger is cutting an unspecified number of North American employees due to slowing demand for oilfield services. Some speculate whether the cuts will affect [...]

How do you get votes from Internet Savy youngsters in Malaysia?
Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysia’s former deputy prime ministor has a solution for that - Make Friends in Facebook, Friendster & Myspace Accounts.
I was pretty amused when I found out about this. I immediatly searched him up and added him on my Facebook list just to join the other 1400 [...]

16 January – National Nothing Day

Yes. I could not believe it myself. Today, Americans celebrate National Nothing Day.
Created by a newspaperman Harold Pullman Coffin in 1973, his goal for creating this day is “to provide Americans with one national day when they can just sit without celebrating, observing, or honoring anything.”
From the way Mr. Harold puts it, it seems like [...]

Paul Navone and his 2 Million Dollars

I was listening to the news this morning on CNN, and this amazing story caught me.
A Factory Worker, who has never earned more than $11 per hour, became a Millionaire after 62 years of work.
Ok, we have witnessed the power of Compounding. BUT, thats NOT IT.
Mr. Paul Navone donated his first million to Cumberland County College. And [...]
