Life?

Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of AIDS which he got due to infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983.
From the world over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: “Why does GOD have to select you for such a bad disease”? To this Arthur Ashe replied: The world over – 50 million children start playing tennis, 5 million learn to play tennis, 500,000 learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the grand slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi finals, 2 to the finals, When I was holding a cup I never asked GOD “Why me?”. And today in pain I should not be asking GOD “Why me?” Happiness keeps you Sweet, Trials keep you Strong, Sorrow keeps you Human, Failure Keeps you Humble, Success keeps you Glowing, But only God Keeps you Going….. Keep Going…..cheers !!

Have a nice day guys. I will be away from this Thursday and Friday and may therefore not be able to update or reply comments regularly. If you need urgent assistance, try praying.

Curiosity kills the cat - CALIMOCHO @ THE WINE SHOP Penang

Image
Curiosity kills the cat? Why? Cause I tried this cola called curiosity cola from Fentimans once and now I am hooked for life. Some time ago I was invited to try this drink called Calimocho at The Wine Shop in Penang. For those who do not know what it is, it's actually a mixture of wine and cola in equal proportion served with ice in it. The blend? Perfect and not to mention best drink on a hot warm day. Not too sweet, not too alcoholic. I was wondering why they didn't bring this to Penang much earlier. The cola used was imported all the way from the UK by Exclusivetea Sdn Bhd. What makes it one of a kind is that Curiosity Cola from Fentimans was botanically brewed. The taste is not as sweet as any other cola in the market but it brings back memories of those cola candy I once had when I was still a kid. We were also served The Wine Shop's famous dishes, oven fresh "vegetarian pizza"   Best wine pairing "Cheese Platter" and juicy...

Pants on fire while it's down

I was at my friends place some time ago and he is one who always bragged about how many girlfriends he has outside. Oh. By the way he has is married. We were having tea at his place because of some "business" proposals to settle. He was seating quietly reading his morning paper drinking coffee with me. Suddenly, his wife came from behind with a frying pan and almost knocked him senseless then and there. Friend : What was that for? You know pain one anot? Wife : Why do you have a piece of paper in your coat pocket with "Daisy" written on it? Friend : Oh honey, don't you remember two weeks ago before the Chinese New Year when I went to the horse races? Daisy was the name of the horse I bet on. His wife was satisfied with his answer and apologized for wacking him. This morning I went to his place and the same thing happened. The wife came with a frying pan also and wacked him so hard on his head that he can barely stand up after that. Friend : What is this for this...
