It's always good to see these cute and loyal friends. What a pity that HK is not a dog-friendly city, there are too many places that dogs cannot enter. And I also believe it's cruel to keep them in a small flat with little room for them to play and run.
Somehow, I think I like dogs more than human.

Noise?
In my sister's recently-moved-in-apartment, strange noise is often heard from the upper floor. At first, I guess it's the noise produced by the water pipes, but it's quite different from what I heard in other places. My sister, using her unique intuition, suggests that the noise is the sound of a walking dog! OK. The noise really sounds like the pace of a dog. But if we can hear the footsteps of a dog, how come we cannot hear the footsteps of the residents? Weird!

What Makes 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%.
How about achieving 103% or even 118%.
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
Then:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
and
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But,
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
And,
B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%
Look how far ass kissing will take you,
A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%
So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Ass kissing that will put you over the top. (source: unknown)

張永霖
信報月刊今期又訪問這位"青樓名妓"，不過今次的內容頗對我的胃口。他退出商界後，全力做義務工作，亦大力推動教育；每天都要運動、讀書和思考，以後還要到世界各地住三個月至半年，體驗當地文化，這些都和我將來想做的一樣。根據他所說，他是在96-98年樓市泡沫期間賺得第一桶金，從而獲得財務自由。這樣的機會真是可遇不可求，不知我的機會，何時才會來到?

Pride and Prejudice
1. I always want to read this famous novel of Jane Austen from the beginning to the end, but for various reasons, I never finish it.
2. I couldn't imagine how this movie would be like without the excellent acting of Keira Knightley. And of course, she's the reason why I can't wait to watch it.
3. When Mrs. Bennet and Lizzie's younger sisters were discussing about who married a richer man, I found this scene similar to those in HK's movies and TV dramas. Seems that "to marry a rich man" is always a popular topic for love stories.
4. There's a fight between Lizzie and her father on allowing Lydia to go to a ball. Mr. Bennet didn't really care about the future of Lydia, but he supported Lizzie when she rejected the proposal of her cousin. Lizzie apparently received much more love than her younger sisters.
5. Misunderstanding and prejudice appear to be more harmful than pride and arrogance in this movie. Maybe it simply because I couldn't feel the arrogance of Mr. Darcy.

False Accusation
Being accused of something I have not done by people I work for inevitably ruined my mood of the day. The best way to mend my mood at this moment is to immerse myself in the world of music.

彭浩翔
想當年，因為他是同學的哥哥，看了他的(第一本?)小說"全職殺手"。現在，想不到他的電影可以在柏林展出。他選擇的題材，在香港影壇中可說是怪雞另類，就像"買凶拍人"和"AV"，但也正對上了我這怪人的胃口。

Power of Consumerism
An ordinary form 3 girl becomes an envy of her friends after she's offered a VIP card of VW. It really surprised me that luxury brands like VW and Burberry were so popular among them, and they couldn't wait to pour thousands or more dollars into the brands.
I'm not sure if it's good for her to keep this habit as long as she's happy with her trophies, but I'm sure the economy will benefit from people like her.

Cartoon War
Isn't it ludicrous for the European press to support the Danish newspaper by republishing the cartoon, in the name of defending Freedom of Speech? I can't see why a cartoon, which humiliates/insults muslim, can gain the full support from them. It seems that by using Freedom of Speech as the mighty shield, we shouldn't condemn any insulting act. To the contrary, we should support it to defend our freedom. Respect? Goto hell!
SC 10km
1. Overcrowded! 9000+ ppl flooded the road.
2. Fortunately I managed to squeeze to the head of the crowd.
3. It's a special experience to run with so many ppl.
4. One or two runners brought their tripod and DSLR camera with them, posing to take pictures in front of the West Harbour Tunnel.
5. A few couples held their hands whilst running... to celebrate V-day?!
6. I got stomachache after I passed the tunnel.
7. Muscular runners are not necessarily good runners.
8. Met some friends after the race.
9. The cheering team has done a really good job.
10. The bottleneck of the day was on the way from Golden Bauhinia to Wan Chai Stadium.

What is your life path number?
***Your Life Path Number is 5***
Your purpose in life is to life freely and collect experiences.
You love life - new adventures, new people, new ideas.
You are very curious, and you crave novelty in all forms.
You tend to make friends easily, and you enjoy the company of all types of people.
In love, you are fun and even a bit intoxicating. But you won't stick around for long.
You are impulsive and spontaneous - which sometimes leads you to do things you regret.
Sometimes you can be overindulgent with food, sex, or drugs.
You have many talents, so many that you are often scattered and unfocused.
