Nine spooks and a funeral

Saturday 9: Spooky
Please scroll down for Weekend Funnies


1. Does anything about Halloween “spook” you? nothing

2. What is the favorite costume you have ever worn for Halloween? none, never wore any

3. What is your favorite thing about Halloween? shopping

4. What one topic is (or was) the most painful to discuss with your parents? Why? it was too painful we didn't discuss it

5. What was the happiest day of your life? Do you think you'll ever top it? the day I set foot in fairyland.

6. What animal would you like to be able to communicate with? any animal that Jacob Black shifts into

7. In what way do you come nearest to perfection (as you define it)? forgiving my debtors?

Weekend Funnies: Academic Humour

I wonder what chance does a dirty finger-and-thumb coordination have against a pistol. Here's hoping they conclude their discussion amicably.

Over at my workplace, students are pampered and their chances are endless you'll wonder if anyone is still normal at all. It will be fun if they try Cambridge and get immortalized in yellow stationery.

An invitation to the mock funeral of a student who failed his exam

But then my party-crazy flunkers will be delighted to be in their mourning fashion. In God's capable hands I commend their spirit.

Visit Shakira and Gattina for more funnies.

Regency delight and love language

Friday's Fave Five: Regency Period Cake Please scroll down for Mommy Moments Ambience of Banana Leaf Restaurant dinners continue to be the trend for us this week. Rustic charm has always been a big hit to me and Banana Leaf's got it. Buckets of real wheat, garlic and pumpkin hang adorning the wall. Plus the sweet and sour fish and chicken with cashew nuts and mushroom are a real pleasure. J Lo Live This was a gift to me two years ago. Cj is too young to be choosy with scents. He smiles playfully when I spray it on him and I laugh inwardly thinking he is a boy wearing a girl's perfume. This week we both smell the same :) Cyberbanking I finally dragged documents and myself down K Bank to register for online financial transactions. Spending only what I earn suits me best as I avoid debts and the convenience of sorting expenses any time of day in familiar surrounding is always welcome. Music in the air Whatever happened to the PA system at work? An old song was coming off it t...

Whisper your wishes

Cross-cultural misunderstandings are rife among gestures of beckonings and farewells in different parts of our planet. For example, the American gesture for "come here" could mean "good-bye" to Italians. Axtell (1998) observes, "the way people beckon one another around the world can be almost as diverse as the way we greet and bid farewell to one another." Today we look into popular hand gestures to signal farewells and to beckon. 1. In the United States , common gesture for getting someone's attention, as when calling a waiter is to raise a hand about head high with the index finger raised (exactly the girl's hand gesture on Samulli's header ) If an American used that gesture to a waiter in Germany , saying "Water please," the German waiter would bring two glasses of water In Japan it is rude; pointing a finger at anyone is considered impolite 2. Italians and Greeks will often wave goodbye with the arm extended, palm up,...

Weekend Snapshot: Ayutthya

Quick Facts: Ayutthya was founded in 1350 and is Thailand's second ancient capital (after Sukhothai); It was named after Ayodhya, a city in India, the birthplace of Rama It was once a sprawling metropolis and a famous hub of international trade It was destroyed by the Burmese army in the 18th century It is now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site Look at these chedis. I can't figure out exactly if the base of each pinnacle is either a square or a bell. I stood far away waiting for other tourists to clear the view when I took this shot. If it's a bell-shape then it's of Ceylonese influence. If it's a square, it's disctinctly Thai style. I would say the base on the right looks like a bell, but the left one is what I'm not sure of. How does it look to you? Prang are huge and high reliquary towers dotting the city. These are the tiny versions. The corn cob-shaped and rounder stupa shows Cambodian influence. This time I drew nearer as I suspect my SPF 50 wa...
