Ah Beng was walking along his work area one day and saw his fren Ah Mute.
Ah Mute can't speak so he needs to use sign language to communicate.
Ah Mute signalled why Ah Beng wasn't at work. Ah Beng than look around and gathered some leaves under the tree and stood on them. He looked at Ah Mute and pointed down at the leaves.
Ah Mute was now confused.. Later Ah Seng passed by and saw Ah Beng standing on the leaves.
Ah Mute then signal Ah Seng on what Ah Beng was trying to say..
Ah Seng then typed down in his handphone and showed it to Ah Mute.
"Aiyo so simple, Ah Beng Is On Leave!"
Time passes slowly, giving me the opportunity to savour life, ponder on its mysteries and question their meanings with those who would pause for a moment in their busy lives, to have a cup of coffee with me.

hymns
My female owner finally sent an email to the church wind ensemble she used to play with today. The reason was that someone started sending out some hymn jokes.
Do you know your HYMNS?
The Dentist's Hymn........ .......Crown Him with Many Crowns
The Weatherman's Hymn........ There Shall Be Showers of Blessings
The Contractor's Hymn........The Church is One Foundation
The Tailor's Hymn........ .......Holy, Holy, Holy
The Golfer's Hymn........ There is a Green Hill Far Away
The Politician's Hymn........ .........Standing on the Promises
The Optometrist' s Hymn........Open My Eyes That I Might See
The IRAS Agent's Hymn........ ......... ......... ...I Surrender All
The Gossip's Hymn........ ......... ......... ......... ..Pass It On
The Electrician' s Hymn........ ......... ......... ..Send The Light
The Shopper's Hymn........ ......... ......... ...Sweet Buy and Buy
The Realtor's Hymn......... I've Got a Mansion Just over the Hilltop
The Massage Therapists Hymn ............ He Touched Me
The Doctor's Hymn........ ......... .The Great Physician
The emails started shooting around and my female owner couldn’t help but ask “any hymns for the psychologist?”
And the answers came quite quickly:
Take Thou Our Minds, Dear Lord
God Be In My Head
Whispering Hope
Haha!
She also received a short email from one of the veterans of the ensemble who asked how she was and added that he was waiting for her to return to join them. My female owner thought that he was referring to the ensemble and replied accordingly. It turned out that he was referring to joining his organisation. The history is that, before she left for Brisbane, he had briefly broached the subject to her, but my female owner had forgotten about it until today. My female owner is not keen coz it’s a governmental department dealing with restricted information.
After all, my female owner didn’t resign from the civil service, to hop back into the civil service. Then she might as well have taken a sponsorship!

banana
Please take test to check how stress you are....
The Banana Test
There is a very, very tall coconut tree and there are 4 animals.
King Kong, an Ape, an Orangutan and a Monkey pass by.
They decide to compete to see who is the fastest to get a banana off the tree.
Who do you guess will win?
Your answer will reflect your personality.
Think carefully . . . Try and answer within 30 seconds
Got your answer?
Now scroll down to see the analysis.
If your answer is: Orangutan = you're sick
Ape = you need a break
Monkey = worse, you are supposed to be in the hospital right now..
King Kong = I think you better take 1 year leave..
.......
Why?! ????
.......
A Coconut tree doesn't have bananas!
Obviously you're stressed and overworked. Take some time off and relax! â?º
________________________________
Did you get the correct answer? Guess what happened to my female owner? First, she thought the trick was in the number of animals (she somehow missed the "ape") and she guessed "monkey".
She sent the trick to two seniors. Despite being warned, one chose the orang utan and the other chose the ape. Wahaha. All psychologists and all fell for the trick! They are stressed indeed.

irony
In a small town, a person decided to open up a brothel, which was right opposite to a church. The church & its congregation started a campaign to block the brothel from opening with petitions and prayed daily against his business.
Work progressed. However, when it was almost complete and was about to open a few days later, a strong lightning struck the brothel and it was burnt to the ground.
The church folks were rather smug in their outlook after that, till the brothel owner sued the church authorities on the grounds that the church through its congregation & prayers was ultimately responsible for the destruction of his brothel, either through direct or indirect actions or means.
In its reply to the court, the church vehemently denied all responsibility or any connection that their prayers were reasons for the act of God. As the case made its way into court, the judge looked over the paperwork at the hearing and commented: "I don't know how I'm going to decide this case, but it appears from the paperwork, we have a brothel owner who believes in the power of prayer and we have an entire church that doesn't."

gender

A Spanish teacher is explaining "House", for instance, is feminine: "la casa". "Pencil", however, is masculine: "el lapiz".
A student asked, "Which gender is 'computer'?" Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether "computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.
The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the feminine gender ("la computadora"), because:
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;
3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.
The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ("el computador"), because:
1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;
2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;
3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.
The women won.
