Gardenia Bread!!
Here's something interesting on how to buy your fresh wholesome Gardenia bread.
When you buy your bread, have you wondered how to choose and which one is the freshest of em all? Some say they "squeeze" for freshness and softness. Some say check the expiry date, my mum taught me to look for the longest expiry date and check around make sure there are no fungus growing on the bread.
Did you know that the bread is delivered freshly to the stores 5 days in a week?
They are delivered on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday
Each and everyday they have a different colour twist tie (that explains much how come there are so many different colour twist tie)
They are : -
Blue on Mondays
Green on Tuesday
Red on Thursday
White on Friday &
Yellow on Saturday
So if today Tuesday.. you would want a green colour twist tie instead of Yellow that is produced on Saturday.
I hope this is interesting and actually enlightens you why is the bread twist tie clip in different colours.
So enjoy fresh bread when you buy the right colour on the right day of your grocery shopping day!
Please comment if you find this useful or interesting and spread the word!

Prawning (15/12/2008)
Well since i've not been updating my blog as often as i used to due to work load and busy schedule. Today i found some lil time in between to update what i did yesterday.
After work went home and prepared my hooks for some prawning session with a friend who's so engrossed and curious on how i catch these tiger prawns.
He witnessed it and he tried it.. i think he's hooked to it as well. Thats good cause his mum don't really need to buy prawns from the market anymore.
Here are some of the prawns that i caught.. but this photo's are taken a few weeks back just didn't have the time to post.
These are some of the big prawns that i had previously. Freshly caught and steamed with egg white with lots of chinese rice wine. Taste heavenly!
I would say.. my hobby is a lil worth it.. why do i say that.. my mum don't need to buy anymore prawns from market.. my family only eat tiger prawns now.. my gf likes prawns to the max.. so its like 1 arrow hitting a few bull eyes hehee..

Even Lower fuel prices!!
After tonight the fuel prices will be even lower than RM 1.90. Fuels price reduction due to the price reduction in the world crude oil prices.
Well its good at least the fuel price is down.. lets hope everything goes down as well include food, drinks, pampers, and even teh tarik.
Due to recent price hike in June from RM 1.92 to RM 2.70 everything shot up ski high.. but ever since the price reduction.. i don't see much in reduction on food, milk powder and other stuffs.
I think someone should write to the government to ask the traders to lower the raw materials so it benefits everyone.

Lower fuel prices??
Since the global fuel price is reducing almost everyday. Wonder when will the oil price reduce. Could it be next week, next fortnight, or maybe tomorrow?
i have a feeling that it will be tomorrow. As the gov mentioned before that if the global fuel price remains stable for 2 weeks they will reduce the price again.

Golden Pomfret frenzy!!
Works catching up.. time's flying fast.. so many things to do but so little time..
Almost forgotten that i actually have a blog hahaha.
Well this post is nothing much to shout about.. just that i've officially got my Pomfret license in fishing. Well i already got it the last time about a month back but its not counted cause as it is foul hooked.. this time i got it right in the mouth when it was nibbling my prawn bait away..
1st couple of hours i wasn't having any fun fishing and kinda regreted coming to fish on that day.. but soon grace was upon me and my sifu and we're hooking these Golden pomfret while it is having its frenzy.. all in all i caught 4 Golden Pomfret size ranging from 2kg - 3kg.. huge fish..
the worst thing is i had to carry my fish plus my sifu's fish along to go to the counter to check out of the fishing pond.
Its freaking heavy that's all i can say.. but the smile on my face... Joker also have to salute ahaha.
Here are the pic of the total pomfret we caught.. If we were to base on carrefour prices that is selling these fishes at RM 25 per kg.. we have about RM 350 here

The Stubborn Cat!
A couple was dressed and ready to go out into the city for the evening. They turned on a night light, turned the answering machine on the phone line, covered their pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard. They phoned the local cab company and requested a taxi. The taxi arrived and the couple opened the front door to leave their house. The cat they had put out into the yard scoots back into the house.
They don't want the cat shut in the house because she always tries to eat the bird. The wife goes out to the taxi while the husband goes inside to get the cat. The cat runs upstairs, the man in hot pursuit.
Waiting in the cab, the wife doesn't want the driver to know the house will be empty for the night. She explains to the taxi driver that her husband will be out soon. "He's just going upstairs to say good-bye to my Mother."
A few minutes later, the husband gets into the cab.
"Sorry I took so long," he says, as they drive away. "Stupid bitch was hiding under the bed. Had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out! She tried to take off so I grabbed her by the neck. Then I had to wrap her in a blanket to keep her from scratching me but it worked. I hauled her fat ass downstairs and threw her out into the back yard!"
The cab driver hit a parked car......

Farts!!
A fart can be quiet
A fart can be loud
Some leave a powerful
Poisonous cloud.
A fart might not smell
While others are vile
A fart may pass quickly
Or linger awhile.
A fart may be steamy
Or come with a leak
The more you suppress 'em
The more they will "speak."
A fart can occur
In a number of places
And leave everyone
With strange looks on their faces.
From wide-open prairies
To small elevators
A fart will find al of us
Sooner or later.
Not all farts are bad
This is simply not true
We mustn't forget
Dear sweet, old farts like you!

Job Interview
Tom is applying for a job as a signalman for the local railroad, and is told to meet the inspector at the signal box.
The inspector decides to give the fishos a pop quiz, asking, "What would you do if you realized that two trains
were heading towards each other on the same track?"
Tom says, "I would switch one train to another track."
"What if the lever broke?" asks the inspector.
"I'd run down to the tracks and use the manual lever," answers Tom.
"What if that had been struck by lightning?" challenges the inspector.
"Then," Tom continues, "I'd run back up here and use the phone to call the next signal box."
"What if the phone was busy?"
"In that case," Tom argues, "I'd run to the street level and use the public phone near the station".
"What if that public phone had been vandalized?"
"Oh, well," says Tom, "in that case I'd run into town and get my Uncle Leo.
"This puzzles the inspector, so he asks, "Why would you do that?"
"Because he's never seen a train crash!"

Sex!!
An 8-year-old girl went to her dad, who was working in the yard.
She asked him, "Daddy, what is sex?"
The father was surprised that she would ask such a question, but decides that if she is old enough to ask the question, then she is old enough to get a straight answer. He proceeded to tell her all about the "birds and the bees." When he finished explaining, the little girl was looking at him with her mouth hanging open.
The father asked her, "Why did you ask this question?
" The little girl replied, "Mom told me to tell you that dinner would be ready in just a couple of secs."

Renewing road tax??
Next week would be my deadline for my car road tax to expire.. how?? i have a few choices.
1) Go to post office to renew and collect my rebate RM 625 as well there and then
2) Ask my dad to renew for me but i still need to go to the post office to collect the RM 625
Then i was thinking. Lunch time is limited to 1 hour only and during lunch time post office will be packed.. hmm.. how how how??
Then i stumble upon some radio commercials talking about renewing roadtax online. (talking bout technolody nowadays). Then i remembered Nuffnang posted the adds before about applying roadtax online..
so i opted for the 3rd choice which is go online at MYEG's website and did my stuff there.. i was a lil sceptical about it as the method of payment is not convenient except for credit card.. Then i was thinking.. how long does it take for them to renew a new road tax for me. since i have a few days more before my roadtax expires.. so i still have some time to spare before my roadtax expires. Then the question comes.. How am i gonna get the Rm 625 rebate? Then i made a call to the customer service line and they mentioned that they will send it by money order to me latest in 2 weeks time.
I remembered i paid at 10am this morning (16/07/2008) and i received it just now at 2pm..
I would say thumbs up to this service as it is superb and effective.. save me the time and hassle to go all the way to post office to do..
Pro's : you could just sit down and relax.. your roadtax will be send to your doorstep

Something Interesting!!
A man called Ah beng owns a farm which can produce 10 apples every day.
He has 5 workers to operate the farm.
Each of them eats 1 apple daily and it is enough to keep them operating the farm normally.
The remaining 4 apples, the landlord sells them at RM10 each and he earns RM40.
He uses the RM25 to improve the farm operation and facilities.
He gives RM2.00 to each of his workers and he keeps the remaining RM5.00 as profit.
Day by day, the farm is well developed and all of the 5 workers are happy with the money they can save.
When Ah beng passed away and there is a new landlord, Ahmad comes to continue the farm operation.
He says to the workers:
" We need to improve the farm quality and redefine our way of thinking. From now on all of you only need to pay RM1.00 for each apple you eat. It is very cheap as the price is RM10 each outside the farm."
The workers have no choice but to pay RM1.00 for the apple they eat daily. Their earning decrease from RM2.00 to M1.00 per person. As usual, Ahmad sells the 4 apples and he gets RM40. He uses RM25 for farm improvement and pays RM10 to his 5 workers. He gets RM5.00 as profit. On top of that, he gets another RM5.00 from the apples that he sells to his workers. In total, he gets RM10 as profit every day.
Soon, the apple price increases to RM20 each. The new landlord gets a higher profit as he gets RM80 for the 4 apples he sells daily. Then, he decides to give the farming improvement contract to one of his close friend, Sam.
Sam says:"Apple cost naik, improvement cost also misti naik."So, the farm improvement cost increases from RM25 to RM50. In actual fact, the improvement only cost RM30. The remaining RM20, Ahmad and Sam share evenly among themselves.
Let's calculate how much Ahmad gets daily:
RM10 (from farm improvement cost)
RM20 (Net profit by selling 4 apples:
[Gross profit, RM80] - [Improvementcost, RM50] - [Wages RM10] = RM20)
RM5 (from selling apples to his workers)
In total, Ahmad gets RM35 daily compare to RM10 initially when he takes overthe farm from Ah beng.
His profit increases RM25 and the workers are still getting RM1.00 daily perperson.
The greedy Ahmad does not want to stop there.
One day, he says to his fellow workers:" You see ah, the current market price for one apple is RM20 and you are only paying RM1. See how lucky you are! I have to SUBSIDY RM19.00 for each of the apple you buy and total I need to SUBSIDY RM95.00.
This will greatly burden the farm and we might get bankrupt if we continue like this.In order to avoid bankruptcy, I need to increase the apple price that you buy from RM1.00 to RM1.50 and I will bear the remaining RM18.50 per apple as my subsidy to you all.
"So, greedy Ahmad adds RM2.50 to his current profit and the number becomes RM37.50.
After you have read the story, I am sure you have already understood the meaning/concept of "SUBSIDY" given by the "U-no-hu"
The RM95 subsidy never existed in the first place and so was the RM52 billion fuel subsidy generously "given" by the "U-no-hu".
Cutting fuel subsidy is actually just a reason to steal money from your pocket.

Laughing at Pregnant Woman
A young woman who was several months pregnant boarded a bus. When she noticed a young man smiling at her she began feeling humiliated on account of her condition.
She changed her seat and he seemed more amused. She moved again and then on her fourth move he burst out laughing. She had him arrested.
The case came before the court, and when asked why he acted in such a manner, the man replied, "When the lady boarded the bus I couldn't help noticing she was pregnant. She sat under an advertisement which read, 'Coming Soon: The Gold Dust Twins.'
Then she moved under one that read, 'Sloans Liniments Remove Swelling.' I was even more amused when she sat under a shaving advertisement which read, 'William's Stick Did The Trick.' Then I could not control myself any longer when on the fourth move she sat under an advertisement which read, 'Dunlop rubbers would have prevented this accident.'"He won the case.
Jensen's Birthday Gathering
This is a long Overdued post. We celebrated Jensen's birthday in Zen Japanese Restaurant in Pyramid on 28/06/2008.
This is what Jensen had for his birthday dinner hahaha..
There is actually an incident whereby the softshell crab came soft.. meaning that its not crunchy at all.. its soft and soggy. So our Taiko Jensen had to ask the waiter to come. The waiter quoted to him. ..
"sorry sir.. all the soft shell crab is soft or one of it?"
What a question.. if we would've tasted and see which is soft and which is hard the whole plate of softshell crab would be missing isn't it? This one quoted from my gf.
The thing is they're not proactive in changing it.. they'll ask you whats wrong and why you want to change and silly questions and debates around.
The Tofu that we had.. Agedishi Tofu..
Mabel holding the pickle and some other vege
Alice and Grace posing but the waiter's hand had to come into the pic.. sigh

Sealion Part 2
Decided to pay a visit to the pond since we had a productive time previously.. They've changed the water for the pond because about 1 week already and it was drizzling when i was on my way there at about 8pm from sifu's place.
Reached and proceeded to get ready with our gears and check in at 8.20pm.. lots of people checking out empty handed.. i counted about 4 anglers coming out empty handed.. looks like fish is not biting.. i told my sifu.. "how.. fish not biting" he said "Since we're here.. check in only la"
Okie lor.. checked in and used my newly bought lemax President Royal 6 feet 8-17lbs test rod for the opening ceremony..
Rod : Lemax President Royal 6 feet
Reel : Ryobi Excia 4000
Line : Power Pro 30lbs
Leader : 50lbs Berkley Varnish flurocarbon leader
Hook : Kantuki Chinu size 1
Weight : size 2 1/2 sliding sinker.
After a few cast.. still no bites.. look around the pond and observed not much action around the pond. Then a guy beside me landed a Mangrove Jack on the float setup.. i looked at his catch and wonder to myself.. why no fish bite my line one? Just as i finish having the thought i reeled in my line little but little and it got stuck to something, lift up my rod and my rod bend into a "U" shape and line stripping out from my reel and reel screaming.. a hook up.. the fight fought very hard and after that the next trouble is we didn't bring a landing net.. so its kinda hard to land without a landing net.. then my sifu bend down and pull up the fish for me.. ahhh.. sigh of relief.. hehe..
A nice Mangrove Jack size 1.3kg .. didn't took the pic of the fish at that time cause hands is dirty from the baits and saltwater..
Then coming into the 2nd hour.. a few fishes landed here and there and i saw people using dead baits (kembong, selar, dead prawns) and scoring. Then i changed to a dead prawn and cast as far as i can possibly reach to the sangkar (fish net) and it landed below the fish net hehehe.. smiling as the cast is very good and waited.. as i waited and waited.. no bites and its already 1 1/2 hours through the fishing time d.. then as i was talking to my sifu i said "how come no fish bite my bait one.. "hhehe.. true enough as i pull in the line to check, the fish also pulled hehehe.. after some fight.. landed a 1.5kg Golden Snapper..
Overall i would say this is a very Good opening ceremony trip for my new 6ft Lemax President Rod.
The ever so strong Ang Cho (Golden Snapper)

Jamaican Interview
A Jamaican man wants a job, but the foreman won't hire him until he passes a little math test. Here is your first question, the foreman said, "Without using numbers, represent the number 9." "Without numbers?" The Jamaican says, "Dat is easy." And proceeds to draw three trees.
"What's this?" the boss asks
"Ave you got no brain? Tree and tree and tree make nine," says the Jamaican.
"Fair enough," says the boss. "Here's your second question. Use the same rules, but this time the number is 99."
The Jamaican stares into space for a while, then picks up the picture that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree. "Ere you go."
The boss scratches his head and says, "How on earth do you get that to represent 99?"
"Each of da trees is dirty now. So, it's dirty tree, and dirty tree, and dirty tree. Dat is 99.
" The boss is getting worried that he's going to actually have to hire this Jamaican, so he says, "All right, last question. Same rules again, but represent the number 100."
The Jamaican stares into space some more, then he picks up the picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree and says, "Ere you go. One hundred."
The boss looks at the attempt. "You must be nuts if you think that represents a hundred!" The Jamaican leans forward and points to the marks at the base of each tree and says, "A little dog come along and crap by each tree. So now you got dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree and a turd, and dirty tree and a turd, which makes one hundred." "So, when I start?"

Fishing in Sealion on 21/06/2008
On my way to sealion at about 2.50 pm from my sifu's place in klang.. it rained super heavily.. so heavy that i hardly can see the road.. but lights were on and container lorries paving the way through the puddles of water on the road. Arrived at sealion at about 3pm. Bought baits, checked in and it was drizzling still.. went to the booth that don't have people and "park" there. Lines cast everywhere but no bites registered.
About 1 hour later.. also no bites as i've shifted places about 3 - 4 times.. tried all kinds of method.. casting, bottom and mid water.. but still no bites.. but there is a particular corner which is registering bites non stop.. but there are about 10 anglers there.. typical pasar malam situation when bites and fish landed.
Didn't produce any results as well until my sifu saw his friend.. he took my sifu's rod and he tested and tried a few places.. finally the pasar malam crowd subsided and there is a lil room to fish there.. learned a few methods by observing but i still didn't get any bites.. he got a 1st fish after about 15 minutes locating the fishes.. the next fish up in 10 minutes.. i was thinking.. damn this guy is damn good.. (heard from the people there that the boss actually pay him RM 50 so he would not fish) he's damn good.. total he fished for us for about 2 hours.. 8 hook ups.. 5 landed and 3 escaped (due to jealous ppl.. line sangkut... let go line la.. still wanna fight and though it was him that kena fish.. typical kiasu ma chan's there) 1 hook straightened and the other leader snapped..
For me still no bited yet after he registered his 3rd fish.. then his friend took my rod and tested for me.. took some dead prawns and in 15 minutes.. he registered a nibble.. after that.. he striked hard and it put my lemax black panther 6 feet rod and reel to the ultimate test.. the rod bend like a "U" shape and reel drag locked as he reel the fish in.. landed a Mangrove Jack about 1.5 kg..
This ordeal repeated for 2 more times and it was time for them to go off.. passed the rod back to me and my sifu.. time shows that fishing is already at about 3 1/2 hours and left us with 30 minutes to try and learn his method.. During this time.. i didn't realised that my drag was locked.. i registered a bite and i waited for about 3 seconds and i gave a hard jerk.. hook up but not landed.. fish lost due to hook up too early and fish lost while struggling to get free.. tried again after 10 minutes and a bite is detected and allow the fish some time to enjoy the fresh prawn on the end of the hook and saw my line moving.. a sign of fish swollowed and strike.. hook up and landed a 2kg ang cho.. all in all its a fun learning time.. the best part is .. fishes landed is with our rod, reel, line, leader, hooks, sinker and prawns.. all ours.. just the skill from them.. so proven that rod and reel is fine only our skill is not up to par..
so back to the drawing board.. have to learn to cast to the designated spot with light baits on the end of the line.. learn timing to retrieve the line.. when bites registered.. dun "kan cheong" and wait.. the longer you wait.. the higher the chances of hook up cause the fill will swollow the hook by then..
strong leader and a good rod about 7 feet with long but for fighting power and fish handling is required.. the power comes from the forearm when handling the fish.. not the wrist.. i've learn alot during this outing and it was wet (raining) fun (scooping the fish with net) and experience.. never before i brought fish as we were walking out to the counter everybody that was fishing there jaw dropped as i was holding 9 fish at the end of the lines...
What a fun experience..

Divorce??
An elderly man in Miami calls his son in New York and says, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting divorced. Forty-five years of misery is enough."
"Dad, what are you talking about?" the son screams.
"We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the old man says. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her," and he hangs up.
Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone, "Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this." She calls her father immediately and screams at the old man, "You are NOT getting divorced! Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME!?" and hangs up.
The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay," he says, "They're coming for Christmas and paying their own airfares."

The hunter
Johnny went hunting one day in Ontario and bagged three ducks. He put them in the bed of his pickup truck and was about to drive home when he was confronted by an ornery game warden who didn't like smart kids.
The game warden ordered Johnny to show his hunting license, and Johnny pulled out a valid Ontario hunting license. The game warden looked at the license, then reached over and picked up one of the ducks, sniffed its butt, and said, "This duck ain't from Ontario. This is a Quebec duck. You got a Quebec huntin' license, boy?"
Then Johnny reached into his wallet and produced a Quebec hunting license.
The game warden looked at it, then reached over and grabbed the second duck, sniffed its butt, and said "This ain't Quebec duck. This duck's from Manitoba. You got a Manitoba license?"
Johnny reached into his wallet and produced a Manitoba hunting license.
The warden then reached over and picked up the third duck, sniffed its butt, and said, "This ain't Manitoba duck. This duck is from Nova Scotia. You got a Nova Scotia huntin' license?"
Again the kid reached into his wallet and brought out a Nova Scotia hunting license. The game warden was extremely frustrated at this point, and he yelled at Johnny "Just where the hell are you from?"
Johnny smiled turned around, bent over, dropped his pants, and said,
"You tell me, you're the expert..."
Smart Boy named Timmy
There was a little boy named Timmy who used to hang out at the local corner market. The owner didn't know what Timmy's problem was, but the boys would constantly tease him. They would always comment that he was two bricks shy of a load, or two pickles short of a barrel. To prove it, sometimes they would offer Timmy his choice between a nickel (5 cents) and a dime (10 cents) and Timmy would always take the nickel ... they said, because it was bigger.
One day after Little Timmy grabbed the nickel, the store owner took him aside and said "Timmy, those boys are making fun of you. They think you don't know the dime is worth more than the nickel. Are you grabbing the nickel because it's bigger, or what?"
Slowly, Little Timmy turned toward the store owner and a big grin appeared on his face and he said, "Well, if I took the dime, they'd stop doing it, and so far I have saved $20!"
Hardest Language!!
English has to be one of the hardest languages to understand. Read the paragraph below and try to understand the meaning.
Two individuals proceeded towards the apex of a natural geologic protuberance, the purpose of their expedition being the procurement of a sample of fluid hydride of oxygen in a large vessel, the exact size of which was unspecified. One member of the team precipitously descended, sustaining severe damage to the upper cranial portion of his anatomical structure; Subsequently the second member of the team performed a self rotational translation oriented in the same direction taken by the first team member.
In plain English what does this translate to?
Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water Jack fell down and broke his crown and Jill came tumbling after!

Drunk!!
A man went into a bar and ordered several shots of vodka. By the time the bar was closing, he was wasted.
He got up to leave and fell flat on his face. "Well, I don't want the bartender to think I'm drunk, so I'll pretend I tripped and I'll try it again." So he gets up and falls on his face.
"Well, the door's not too far away; I'll just crawl." When he gets outside he thinks, "Well, I only live 4 blocks away; I can make it that far." So he stands up and falls on his face.
He decides he'll try it one block at a time, and at every block he falls flat on his face. Finally he makes it home, stands up and falls on the bed. In the morning his wife wakes him up.
"You were drunk again last night, weren't you?"
"How did you know?"
"The bartender called. He said you left your wheelchair at the bar."
3 man's speech
Three top pro speakers from different countries were invited to give a talk to a
Deaf Society.
An Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman are all to give speaches to the Deaf Society. All are keen to make an impression on their audience.
The Englishman goes first and to the surprise of his colleagues starts by rubbing first his chest and then his groin. When he finishes the Scotsman and Irishman ask him what he was doing.
Well" he explained" By rubbing my chest I indicated breasts and thus Ladies and by rubbing my groin I indicated balls and thus Gentlemen. So my speech started Ladies and Gentlemen".
On his way up to the podium the Scotsman thought to himself I'll go one better than that English angel and started his speech by making an antler symbol with his fingers above his head before also rubbing his chest and his groin.
When he finished his colleagues asked what he was doing. "Well" he explained" By imitating antlers and then rubbing my chest and groin I was starting my speech by saying Dear Ladies and Gentlemen".
On his way up to the podium the Irishman thought to himself I'll go one further than those mainland angels and started his speech by making an antler symbol above his head, rubbing his chest, and then his groin, and then masturbating furiously.
When he finished his colleagues asked him what he was doing. "Well" he explained," by imitating antlers, rubbing my chest and then my groin and then masturbating I was starting my speech by saying -
Deer Ladies and Gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure......."

Cork or fate?
One day in the locker room, Bob sees a fat man with a cork in his ass. Curious, he asks the man how it got there.
"Well," says the man, "I was walking along the beach when I tripped over a lamp. There was a puff of smoke and this great big guy in a turban came oozing out, saying, 'I am a genie. I can grant you one wish.' And I said, 'No shit!'"
One Briliant Kid!
A Duke was hunting in the forest with his men-at-arms and servants when he came across a tree. Upon it, archery targets were painted and smack in the middle of each was an arrow.
"Who is this incredibly fine archer?" cried the duke. "I must find him!"
After continuing through the forest for a few miles he came across a small boy carrying a bow and arrow. Eventually the boy admitted that it was he who shot the arrows plumb in the center of all the targets.
"You didn't just walk up to the targets and hammer the arrows into the
middle, did you?" asked the duke worriedly.
"No my lord. I shot them from a hundred paces. I swear it by all that I hold holy."
"That is truly astonishing," said the duke. "I hereby admit you into my service." The boy thanked him profusely.
"But I must ask one favor in return," the duke continued.
"You must tell me how you came to be such an outstanding shot."
"Well," said the boy, "first I fire the arrow at the tree...
...and then I paint the target around it."
That is what i call think outside the box

On the table where we were sitting is given a bucket.. in the bucket there is wet tissues, a roll of kitchen tissue, lingam's sauce, heinz tomato sauce and heinz vinegar.. its attached to a chain and at the end of the chain would be a ping pong bat with the menu of the drinks, cocktails and desserts.

Some Trivia before for you to crack your head so that it'll enlight the thought of the hungry feeling you had
There is this plate on every table for people to call the waiter/waitress.. this is what i call waiter traffic lights..
If you don't need the waiter just put the plate to Run Forest Run so they'll be around moving and looking for things to do
When you change to the red "stop forest stop", its a sign for the waiters to stop by your table and take your order or anything you need .. very creative..
After ordering the waiters came over and gave us 3 trivia questions.. if we get all 3 trivia answers correctly .. he'll refill our drink for free.. The questions is all related to the show "Forest Gump"
We didn't have to wait very long for our food and i'll let the pics do the talking instead!!
