My company is having a blood donation drive this Tuesday. Below is a checklist on whether a person is eligible to donate blood.
Blood Donation Checklist:
1. Healthy today.
2. 18 – 65 years old.
3. Weight 45kg or more.
4. More than 5 hours sleep.
5. Breakfast or lunch before donation (within 4 hours).
6. 3 months or more after last blood donation.
7. No medical problems (discuss with Medical Officer).
8. Not on any medication (discuss with Medical Officer).
9. Not having menses for the past 3 days.
10. Not pregnant/breast feeding.
11. Not a drug abuser.
12. Not a homosexual (Men having sex with another man).
13. Do not have multiple sexual partners (more than one partner within 6 months).
14. Do not have sex with prostitutes.
15. No tattoos, ear/body piercing or acupuncture within 12 months.

Based on the checklist above, I should be allowed to donate blood, if I wanted to. Let me check.
If there was a law persecuting blog owners of “blog negligence”, I would have been thrown into jail and/or fined.
Two weeks ago, I went to the PC Fair at KLCC to get myself some tech gadgets — RAMs, external hard disks (one for myself and another for my brother) and a mouse. The RAMs were for office use. The external hard disk is because I can no longer tolerate the lack of space of my existing drive and constantly repeating these 6 steps to increase hard disk space. Lastly, the scroll wheel on my mouse stopped functioning just days before the event.
Add that all up and I had a perfect excuse to go for the event. After my girlfriend found out that I have been to the PC Fair and back without even mentioning it to her, she asked me jokingly if I was there to check out the booth babes.
Now, this is a trap question. Whatever answer I give can and would be used against me. If I answered “No, I was not there to check out the PC Fair booth babes”, she would never believe me. If I answered “Yes”, well…
I ended up choosing to act stupid and answered, “What booth babes? I was there to get some tech gadgets and did not see any of them. Must have been the economy.” Of course, that was not a correct answer. Just do a quick image search on Google for the term PC Fair and you will see more pretty (judgmental) booth girls than tech gadgets.
After 14-emotion-packed days filled with excitement, hope, expectation, anger, disappointment and whatnot, the day to pick up the keys to my first set of wheels has arrived. I wonder if this is how PMS would have felt like. I really do not know.
If this situation were to prolong, there may not be any hair left on my head. The stress from my work and the “fight” to get that number plate is becoming too much a burden for me. The line separating sanity and insanity seems almost nonexistent. I was afraid I might not even make it through.
Thankfully, I did.
15-01-2009 will be the last day I walk. Ok, that sounded really wrong.
From now onwards, any real walking and exercise will be done on the treadmill at the True Fitness gym. I have been skipping gym a lot recently. If I allow myself to procrastinate any further, I can kiss my ass goodbye. Like literally.
There has been so much hype about this video circulating on the Internet where a group of ladies were having so much fun racing each other equipped with toilet plunger and toilet paper.
I did a quick search and found the video on YouTube. There are a few copies out there with titles such similar to The Hen’s Party. Anyway, I believe the original copy could be the one titled Wild Women of Whippoorwill submitted in May 2008 with over 3 million views to date.
Wow! That is a lot of laughter!
It is not surprising at all seeing the way the ladies handled the stick between their legs. They find it hard to walk, let alone run. However, the hardest part for them was probably trying to poke the stick through the toilet paper hole without using their hands.
One can only take so much bull-crap from politicians sometimes.
A week ago, Jerlun MP Mukhriz Mahathir was alleged to have asked for the closure of vernacular schools — an offence which may see him fined or jailed if found guilty. He later denied this.
I am nobody to judge if Mukhriz Mahathir, son of our ex-Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad has committed sedition. In fact, this post is not about him but the people who have said that our Jerlun MP did commit sedition.
At least two politicians and a lawyer have spoken against Mukhriz’s statement. All claimed that he could (and maybe should) be charged with the Sedition Act. One even wanted the Attorney-General to take appropriate action against him.
That is really funny because as far as I know, the police would not lift a finger unless a police report is lodge. Just a question to parliamentarian Lim Kit Siang — how many police reports have been lodged against Mukhriz Mahathir for his alleged seditious statement? On the other hand, how many police reports on snatch theft incidents have been made and what are the steps taken to address this problem?
