Social issues..

my sch kena complain by a member of public in the straits times forums. den it triggeres a shitload of posts in my sch forums...



my 2 cents worth.. i think that the students were really dumb.. if got civil defence vehicle with siren on, i jump also jump out of the way.. haha.. for wad you cat walk across the road? especially while there's an emergency vehicle in front of you rushing off somewhere? haha.. although the feller was right in highlighting this, i think he shouldn't have generalized us MI people.. not all are bad eggs..

there's the case of a corporal AWOLing with his SAR-21 rifle with a few live rounds. i dunno wad he was thinking when he decided to awol but i'm sure the police and mindef would have picked his brains clean by the time they are done with him. left 1 more mth to ORD.. haha.. i shouldn't try to comment on his actions cos none of us have been in his shoes (boots) and thus wad we say may not be right.

maybe i should start posting some past photos that i've taken but din post? if not my this photo blog the title must take down le.

yogurt maker

went to sentosa for steamboat dinner at a chalet that my aunt had booked. costa sands one and it was damn small la. at least the air-con was cold. anyway, there were many things to eat..


everything must bring from home.. bowls, extension wire, forks and spoons, blah blah blah so that a steamboat meal can work out.. lucky my uncle got van, can send us all there..


one of my aunts bought durian puffs..


very power one.. i had 3 and the next day throat sore le..

my aunt (bring puff one) also brought home-made yogurt for us.. den i hear le abit wierd.. how to make yogurt yourself? let the milk curddle and ferment? den lidat eat le sure got problem one.. so i saw the bottle and got brand one.. den when i got home i google the brand on the container..


somemore got official website.. i'm impressed...

enough to get my mom to try a set..

bought from phoon huat one.. cost $25 plus.


instruction book...


there's a pack of yogurt mix that has to be dissolved in cold water.. need to shake like mad..


so after shaking put into this while container and let it set for at least 6 hours.. put under the table cos no one will go and disturb it. i just check at 10pm, haven set yet. still watery..


the yogurt mix.. they gave 2 packs, mango and strawberry.. we bought another 2, peach and berries.. the yogurt mix quite ex.. $4.50 per pack.. but i think it would be better than those bought from NTUC or Shop&Save..

i guess have to wait till tmw morning den can know if the experiment was a success or failure..

another joke

in response to the wife abt husband complain, another joke was put up on husband abt wife.

Girlfriend 1.0 to Wife 1.0

Request for Technical Support, Incident #99-02-14-01

Last year I upgraded Girlfriend 1.0 to Wife 1.0, and I can find no documentation on several features.

For example, Wife 1.0 installs itself into all other programs and launches during system initialization where it monitors all other system activity.

Applications such as RunAnywhere 10.3 and StayOut 2.5 cause freezes.

Also, the new program has spawned a couple of unexpected child processes that have taken up a lot of space and resources.

I was considering going back to Girlfriend 1.0 but there does not seem to be a "revert to previous state" feature.

Can you help me?

Registered User #10-1-13-5-19



Response to User #10-1-13-5-19, Incident #99-02-14-01

We receive many inquiries to this perceived problem. However it is almost always the result of a common error.

Many men upgrade from Girlfriend 1.0 to Wife 1.0 with the idea that Wife 1.0 is merely a Utilities & Entertainment program.

This is a serious misconception.

Although Wife 1.0 includes many Utilities and Entertainment functions, Wife 1.0 is actually an entire Operating System. It has been designed to run everything.

Warning! Do not try to: un-install, delete, or purge the program from the system once installed. Trying to un-install Wife 1.0 can be disastrous, resulting in the loss of valuable system resources.

You can not go back to Girlfriend 1.0. Wife 1.0 is not designed to do this.

Many have tried "workarounds". These only complicate the situation.

For example, some have tried to install Girlfriend 2.0 or Wife 2.0 and found the problems persist.

Others, in an ill conceived attempt, have tried to run Girlfriend 2.0 in the background while Wife 1.0 is running. This almost always results in serious system conflicts, possibly leading to a non-recoverable system crash.

We recommend you keep Wife 1.0 and adjust a few user input parameters.

I might also suggest you read the entire section regarding General Protection Faults (GPFs). Should a GPF occur, the best course of action will be to push the Apologize Button then Reset Button as soon as lock-up occurs.

The system will run smooth as long as you provide needed maintenance time.

To free up CPU time and improve performance be certain that you have terminated your several search and scan routines.

Because each copy of Wife 1.0 is a uniquely configured system, no single manual will cover all enabled features.

New users should first consult with those who have been running Wife 1.0 for many years before installing a copy yourself. You should consider joining one of our established local users group to discuss your specific configuration.

Remember, the installation of Wife 1.0 can allow maximum system potential, particularly when used with supplementary applications. For example, killer apps Contentment 2.5 and Reliability 6.12a have been known to max out when run with TLC 2 and Communicator 5.0.

There are no plans for upgrades; Wife 1.0 was designed to work for a lifetime.
