Station of the Cross 2009

We began our Station of the Cross around 7.30am

and it was already hot

' He ain't heavy, He is my Brother'

There are 14 stations
and each station's prayer was led by
a chosen family

the background scenery is the
Inobong Old Graveyard

'No problem for you, Mr George Pipin!'

Half of the crowds

Heading for the last station

Singing at the last station

It was hot, I tell you :)

We finished at around 8.30am

Getting ready for the group picture

In a Light Mood ^ _ ^

A disappointed salesman of Coca Cola returns from his Middle East assignment. A friend asked, "Why weren't you successful with the Arabs?" The salesman explained "When I got posted in the Middle East, I was very confident that I would make a good sales pitch as Cola is virtually unknown there. But, I had a problem, I didn't know to speak Arabic. So, I planned to convey the message through three posters..."

First poster: A man lying in the hot desert sand, totally exhausted and fainting.

Second poster: The man is drinking our Cola.

Third poster: Our man is now totally refreshed.

And then these posters were pasted all over the place.

"Then that should have worked!" said the friend. "The hell it should had!?" said the salesman.

"Didn't realize that Arabs read from right to left"

International Women's Day

Today is the International Women's Day (IWD). In certain countries like China, Vietnam and Russia, today is made an official holiday.

There's a proposal came out in our local paper today to urge the government to declare the IWD as public holiday. It said, if Malaysia cannot make today as holiday, they should consider August 25th because that day is recognized as Women's Day in Malaysia.

I'm all for the proposal :) Hope it came TRUE!

So, to all women out there, Happy International Women's Day. Enjoy today. Relax and keep off from doing housework LoL!!

ps: Prove me that I'm wrong, I think, we don't even have official IWD logo here in Malaysia :(
Logo above taken from here
