1. Kill a few Flies

2. Put them in the sun to dry for one hour.

3. Once they are dry, pick a pencil and paper... Let your imagination flow.

Here are a few examples...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Makes me wonder, where does someone work that there are this many flies???

買東西，為什麼不說買南北

 

在未出仕前，家鄉有叫盛溫和的好友，此人亦是博學多才的人，一天兩人相遇於巷子內，盛手中拿著一個竹籃子，朱熹問他：「你去那裡？」盛回答說：「我要去買點東西。」朱熹是以窮理致知研究學問的人，他聽盛的話，很好奇，隨即問道：「你說買東西，盛溫和反問朱熹：「你知什麼是五行嗎？」朱熹答：「我當然知道，不就是金、木、水、火、土嗎？」盛說：「不錯，你知道了就好辦，現在我說給你聽，東方屬木，西方屬金，南方屬火，北方屬水，中間屬土。我的籃子是竹做的，盛火會燒掉，裝水會漏光，只能裝木和金，更不會盛土，所以叫買東西，不說買南北呀。」朱熹聽後唉了一聲說：「原來是這樣！」原來買東西這個名詞還有這樣一個典故，未收到這篇故事前，還真是搞不懂，買東西的由來，為何會說買東西而不說買南北，看了這篇故事後才知道原來還有這樣一段插曲呢，古人的智慧真是蘊藏在我們的生活的點點滴滴中

The Story: SELLING COMB TO THE MONKS
====================================

There was one company "manufacturing combs" which intends to expand its
business and so the management wanted to employ a new Sales Manager.

The company ADVERTISED the vacancy in the newspaper. They are so many
peoples turned up for the interview everyday....accumulated to almost a
hundred peoples in just few days...

The Company now having the problem to choose the right candidate for this
position. So, The Company interviewer had set A Difficult Task to whom who
want to come for final interview.

The Task Is To: Selling Comb To Monks In Temples

Only 3 Applicants willing to stay on for this
Final Interview challenge. (Mr A , Mr B , Mr C)

The Chief Interviewer instructed: "Now I want three of you here to sell
these wooden combs to the monks in the temples. You only have 10 days to do
it and report to me after that."

After 10 days, they reported.

The Chief Interviewer asked Mr A: How many have you sold?
Mr A Answered: Only One.
The Chief Interviewer Asked: How did you manage to sell?
Mr A Answered: The monks in the temples scolded me when I show them the
comb. But on my way back to downhill I met a young monk who bought it to
scratch his head due to dandruff".

The Chief Interviewer then asked Mr B: How many did you sell?
Mr B replied: 10 pieces. I went to a shrine and noticed many devotee's hair
was in bad shape due to strong wind outside the shrine. The monk in there
listened to my advice and bought 10 combs for their devotees in showing
respect to the Buddha statue.

Then, The Chief Interviewer asked Mr C: How about you?
Mr C replied: 1,000 units.
The Chief Interviewer and the other 2 interviews were astounded.
The Chief Interviewer asked: How you did that?
Mr C replied: I went to a famous temple. After observing for few days I
discovered that there were many tourists. I then told the Chief Abbot there.
"Sifu, those who come here are much devoted. If you could give them a gift,
it will be more elating to them. I told him that I have a bulk of combs here
and ask him to raft his handwriting on the combs as a present to those visit
here. He was very delighted and straight away ordered 1,000 piece

The End of Story.


MORAL OF THE STORY
==================
HARVARD UNIVERSITY had done a research that says:-

1) 85% of success is due to attitude and 15% is capability
2) Attitude is more important than intelligence, especially skills and luck.
In another word, professional knowledge only constitutes for 15% of success
of a person and 85% is due to self-cultivation, public relation and
adaptability ability.

Still remember the story of Selling Shoes to African? When 2 Salesmen were
sent to that continent, one of them reported: Can not do it. No one wears
shoes there?
The second salesman said: It is good to market. A lot of opportunity.

Success and Failure is dependant on how we face problems.

Remember, when the economic is good, there are peoples going bankrupt.
When business is bad , there are many new millionaires produced as well. So
apply now the 85% right working attitude fully.

====================================================================================
 
A、撒旦
    冲动指数：☆☆☆☆☆
    实际上，你并不是一个容易冲动的人，但是你冲动起来的后果往往是很可怕的。作为一个平日里会维持一个平和冷静形象的人来说，你并不容易对一件事情有太强烈的感情，因此让你生气或是冲动都是不容易的事情。
    但是这样的你，一但真的遇到你十分在意的事情，就会变得不顾一切。那时的你，虽然表面还可以保持自己的理智，但是却很难听进别人的劝告，会变得固执己见。这样性格的你，无论是对事还是对感情，都是情绪比较两极化的，可以很冷静，但是也可以比任何人都热血。属于冲动起来，不撞墙不回头的类型。
 
 
B、石妖
    冲动指数：☆☆☆
    你的情绪总是显得很淡漠，很少真的对什么事情动情或者在意。这使得你总是显得缺乏激情，不过也很难让人找到你的弱点。你在为人处世方面有两个比较明显的特点：其一就是你在思想上会比较保守，不喜欢挑战新的事物，不喜欢一味地追求刺激；其二就是你很善于隐藏自己，无论是感情还是情绪，你都能很好的藏在心里，不会轻易被人看穿。你习惯于把自己的情绪放低，习惯于不对生活抱有太高的期望，习惯于压抑自己的冲动。这使得你可以很好的保护自己，但是也使得你身上缺少引人注意的特质。
 
 
C、美杜沙
    冲动指数：☆☆☆☆☆☆
    你实际是个比较自我主义的人。你很忠于自己的喜怒和性情，不会刻意压抑自己的情绪。对你来说，喜欢就是喜欢，讨厌就是讨厌，开心就是开心，伤心就是伤心……这样的你，对待事情多少会有些独断和完美主义。
    当你认定一件事情时，你很少会听得进去别人的意见，并且不愿意给别人任何左右你看法的机会。尤其是当你感觉被人欺骗或者背叛时，你对待感情的完美主义追求会使得你不肯听别人的辩解，而固执地按照自己的想法决定。这样的你，虽然有时显得自我而洒脱，但是同样也会是一个受到了伤害就很难恢复的人。
 
 
D、阿修罗
    冲动指数：☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
    你会顺应自己的本能，当冲动起来的时候，你并不会去想要刻意压抑这种情绪冲动。这样的你，并不是一个足够冷静的现实主义者，你总是难免会被情绪左右。有时，你也会显得不理智和孩子气。而这也正是你的魅力所在，你很忠于自己的想法，通常想到什么就会去做，不会犹豫再三。这使得你往往能够抓住机遇，并且可以主动去寻找机遇。
    但是，同时也让你难免会因为自己遇事考虑不周全而受到一些打击和伤害。但是对你来说，最重要的不是让自己适应现实，而是保持自己的性格和生活方式，你所追求的就是一份随性的生活。
 
 
E、吸血鬼
    冲动指数：☆☆☆☆
    你算不上是个容易冲动的人，你对于不考虑清楚就行动这样的事情会比较抗拒。你总是习惯于隐藏自己的欲望和冲动，你觉得自己内心有着阴暗面，不适合被人看到的。这样的你，对待他人是有着一定的恐惧的，因为你实际很怕受到伤害，也很怕被人了解自己的内心。
    因此，你无疑就是一个躲在暗处的吸血鬼。你内心有着欲望，有着黑暗的一面，是你不会让它们显露出来。你总是从安全和实际的角度去考虑问题，当你因为某件事情而一时兴起时，你也往往会先压制住，看清大局、考虑清楚后再作出决定。

This is hilarious... ..even an Englishman could not construct sentences using numerics, which is exclusive only to Malaysians and Singaporeans.                              
Ah Lek was asked to make a sentence using 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10. Not only did he do it 1 to 10, he did it again from 10 back to 1. This is what he came up with:                                                   
1 day I go 2 climb a 3 outside a house to peep. But the couple saw me, so I panic and 4 down. The man rushed out and wanted to 5 with me. I ran until I fell 6 and threw up.. So I go into 7-eleven and grabbed some 8 to throw at him. Then I took a 9 and try to stab at him. 10 God he run. 10 I put the 9 back and pay for the 8 and left 7-eleven.  Next day I called my boss and told him I was 6. He said 5 , tomorrow also no need to come back 4 work. He also asked me to go climb a 3 and jump down! I don't  understand. I am so nice 2 him but I don't know what he 1.

燙傷處理新法 !  
請轉寄友人,只要用得到一次, 就是大功德 !  
 
★ 未破皮處之燙傷處理 (熱水、熱湯、熱油、摩托車煙管、蒸氣燙傷)   
 
燒傷如果沒有馬上降溫與止痛，未來的心路歷程是可想而知。  
當燙傷時第一時間不是很痛，是因為身體有百分之 0.9 的鹽會繼續吸皮膚發炎的熱，但會變成越來越灼熱痛，只要我們馬上用 大量的鹽 把熱吸過去就不痛了，因為鹽有吸熱和滲透的特性，民俗廟會過火撒鹽就是這個原理。  
 
我向一位年長的婦女說燙傷須馬上泡冰鹽水：有一次她跌倒整隻手掌插入熱油鍋裡，她整隻手掌藏入鹽堆裡，結果手心手背都好了，但指縫卻起水泡，則是因為當時沒有把手指頭張開，事後還高興的向我說謝謝。  
 
像一般家庭小燙傷：沖水後用很厚的鹽再用濕的面紙敷蓋（以防止鹽掉了），偶爾加水！只要離開鹽不痛約三小時就好! 不需敷藥也沒有留下疤痕。  
(註:皮膚未破皮，用大量的鹽沒有關係！)

TAXI
 
 
I arrived at the address where someone had requested a taxi. I honked but no one came out. I honked again, nothing. So I walked to the door and knocked. 'Just a minute', answered a frail, elderly voice. I could hear something being dragged across the floor.
 
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her 90's stood before me. She was wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it, like somebody out of a 1940s movie.
 
By her side was a small nylon suitcase. The apartment looked as if no one had lived in it for years. All the furniture was covered with sheets..
 
There were no clocks on the walls, no knickknacks or utensils on the counters. In the corner was a cardboard box filled with photos and glassware.
 
'Would you carry my bag out to the car?' she said. I took the suitcase to the cab, and then returned to assist the woman.
 
She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the curb.
 
She kept thanking me for my kindness. 'It's nothing', I told her. 'I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated'..
'Oh, you're such a good boy', she said. When we got in the cab, she gave me an address, and then asked, 'Could you drive through downtown?'
 
'It's not the shortest way,' I answered quickly.
'Oh, I don't mind,' she said. 'I'm in no hurry. I'm on my way to a hospice'.
 
I looked in the rear-view mirror. Her eyes were glistening. 'I don't have any family left,' she continued. 'The doctor says I don't have very long.' I quietly reached over and shut off the meter.
 
'What route would you like me to take?' I asked.
 
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked as an elevator operator.
 
We drove through the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived when they were newlyweds. She had me pull up in front of a furniture warehouse that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
 
Sometimes she'd ask me to slow in front of a particular building or corner and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
 
As the first hint of sun was creasing the  horizon, she suddenly said, 'I'm tired. Let's go now'
 
We drove in silence to the address she had given me. It was a low building, like a small convalescent home, with a driveway that passed under a portico.
 
Two orderlies came out to the cab as soon as we pulled up. They were solicitous and intent, watching her every move. They must have been expecting her.
 
I opened the trunk and took the small suitcase to the door. The woman was already seated in a wheelchair.
 
'How much do I owe you?' she asked, reaching into her purse.
'Nothing,' I said
 
'You have to make a living,' she answered.
 
'There are other passengers,' I responded.
 
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly.
 
'You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,' she said.
 
'Thank you.'
 
I squeezed her hand, and then walked into the dim morning light. Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of a life.
I didn't pick up any more passengers that shift. I drove aimlessly lost in thought. For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk. What if that woman had gotten an angry driver, or one who was impatient to end his shift?
What if I had refused to take the run, or had honked once, then driven away?
On a quick review, I don't think that I have done anything more important in my life.
 
We're conditioned to think that our lives revolve around great moments.
 
But great moments often catch us unaware-beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one.
PEOPLE MAY NOT REMEMBER EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID, OR WHAT YOU SAID, BUT THEY WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW YOU MADE THEM FEEL.
 
You won't get any big surprise in 10 days if you send this to ten people. But, you might help make the world a little kinder and more compassionate by sending it on.
 
Thank you, my friend...
 
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.
