Mom turns the Last Supper wall carpet into a floor carpet. Squirm. Cringe. WTF was she thinking?
The most my main blog has ever seen in it’s entire life! I hope I surpass it.
I am not in the deal business: I’m in the partnership business. This naturally means making an array of trade-offs in order to strike a balanced relationship with my partners, seldom getting everything I want but generally arriving at a point that feels good to both parties. My partners in this…
I really like how Roger Ehrenberg thinks and writes. The core premise if his post deserves respect:
“We will only invest in a company and become partners with founders who are as interested in working with us as we are with them. This transcends money: this gets down deep to the essence of what a partnership really means. It is, by its nature, a fair exchange of value where we exchange money, commitment and real efforts for ownership, passion and a maniacal focus on building an awesome company.”
A few months back a founder came to me with a question that had been weighing heavy on his mind- should he quit?
Months prior to stepping into my office he had kicked off a new startup. One he was intensely passionate about. He’d quit his job and taken on a part time gig so he could funnel his…
Why All Malaysians Need To Learn English
One day, an Ang Moh (Westerner) from USA arrived at KLIA Airport (Kuala Lumpur International Airport).
After he checked out from the customs, he felt he needed to go to the toilet, so he looked for one.
When he found the toilet, there was a lady sitting at the entrance.
When he was about to enter the toilet, the lady stopped him and asked for forty cents in Cantonese (‘sey kok’).
The Ang Moh (westerner) wondered why in MALAYSIA they have to ‘see cock’ before entering the toilet?
So he said ‘no’ but the lady insisted. Since he had no choice, he took out his cock and showed it to her.
The lady said ‘No! No! Duit, Duit!’ (Money in Malay), but the Ang Moh misunderstood again and thought that she said ‘Do it! Do it!’ So he asked, ‘Now? Here?’ The lady replied ‘Yes, yes!’ because she doesn’t quite understand English.
The Ang Moh thought that she wanted to have sex with him, so he stripped the lady and made love to her.
The lady started screaming and shouted, ‘SAKIT! SAKIT!’ (Pain in Malay), and the Ang Moh thought it was ‘SUCK IT! SUCK IT!’
He said ‘OK! I will suck it for you’ and took both breasts and suck them.
The lady again screamed ‘Oh, TUHAN!’ (Oh, MY GOD….in Malay).
The Ang Moh misunderstood again… ‘Too HARD?
OK, sweetheart, I’ll be a bit gentler,’ the Ang Moh replied.
Suddenly, a security guard walked by, so the lady shouted for help, ‘TOLONG! TOLONG, ENCIK!’ (help! Help Mr…in English)
The Ang Moh replied, ‘Not too long, just 6 inches only.’

How can you fell love and hate at the same time?
So tired of these super draining people.
But they’re family, I’m supposed to love them.
So tempted to abandon.
Damn this prison.
If there’s a wish granter today - I wish all of these go away.
So everyone’s all yelling, feeling negative and exhausted.
Misery loves company indeed.
Who gets to cheer in such a climate? It’s so draining.
Where’s a way out when you need one?
If you have stopped loving a person, let go.
Uhmn, can you apply that to family?

I have been off Facebook for one week. I was one of Facebook’s early adopters in the U.S., having been lured into it by my English colleagues in early 2007 when it was all the rage in London media. (True story: I had just emailed a story to my British editor on mergers and acquisitions, and he…
Please stop using the phrase “krisis sa Mindanao” o “kaguluhan sa Mindanao” on your news reports. Mindanao is a very big island. While a tragedy indeed happened in Basilan, it is only a part of a big land area. It is a disservice to all who live in Mindanao in peace. People who are not from Mindanao tend to think that there’s chaos all over here in the island, when in fact there is none.
If a bombing happens in Makati or in Manila for instance, you would not call it a “Luzon crisis or problem”, would you? You have to be more sensitive and professional because media has the ability to affect the consciousness of the viewers.
You can help the country achieve what it desires. Choosing your words well in your news report is matters a whole lot.

You’re only as strong as:
- the alcohol you drink
- the tables you dance on
- the caffeine in your coffee
- the hangover from your sugar high
- the friends in your life
