Possibly WANTED!!!

Is this coming to Town!? A possible replacement for my 3 yr old one....

Safari screwed up my blog widgets!

Is interesting to see how the different browser intepret the CSS, javascripts or HTML.....Here are 2 good examples from my blog browsed by using Safari......NOTE: IF you are using IE or firefox, you should be able to see them correcting on the right column for comparison: Example 1: I wonder how Nuffnang ads got into my shoutbox Example 2: Another amazing thing is to see my shoutbox being thrown into my flickr badge

The usual sin: cannot run, buy running gear!!!

About One month back......my 2 yr old water bottle pouch gave way....I blogged about it 2 years back and it costed me <$10...time really flies..... I was telling some guys in the evening.....when i am down and out of running....i tends to buy new gears.....I got my my latest 2 pairs of running shoes when I was sick this year: and Today...i am still down....have been down for almost 2 weeks....and i got another new gear: Nathan Elite I Plus hydration pouch: I felt the water bottle is too small....at least is smaller than my favourite red adidas water bottle...so i tried it! BINGO!! it fits....at least the pouch still can hold it properly...look like i can use back my baby bottle with it.....i probably will not use the gel bottle and the mesh pouch can be used for gel packets........

20m dash.........

I RAN! I RAN!.................20m.....across the road to race against the traffic lights before it turns red!

System down!!!

My blog space is empty over the weekend....due to system down....not computer but my physical system.....this time...for dunnoe what reason....but same old problem...same old story....hopefully is up again by next weekend

SPANS REAL Run got to shift out of Sentosa this year and they found an interesting venue at the new Changi airshows exhibition centre.............

We also see a new women only event called the Anlene Orchard Mile.......... SHAPE run for women only will still be ON.....

Trait of a "good" telemarketer

I always got phone calls from telemarketers from banks regarding their promotions and offers on credit products........ Out of 5 calls i received, 4 are indian ladies.......i really wonder why sometimes.....until today then i realised something......they have a trait that others do not have.........the ability to speak "beautiful" english continuously without breaking up sentences with high precision and focus such that the listener is unable to break them without speaking with some force and "impact".........it took me 3 times to speak with force saying "I am NOT interested" before i broke into the "speech" of the indian lady who called me this afternoon................
