From *Oink Flu to Rumpelstiltskin to King Midas




Zima and I spoke about the Oink* Flu just now and we were wondering how to live without Air ? But this virus spreads through Air ! *yikes*

But then again .. if we dont have money , its also difficult to live .
So which is which ?

Talk about being sarcastic and all but the song "No Air" ( yes! its one of my favourite songs and the ringtone is set only for him , my chosen man :D ) do leave you all mushy inside out haha .

Thats besides the point , but I hate to say this, with my company's new business focus and direction , our riders are full of EGO (vomit) . Company have given them the opportunity to earn extra and more money by being independent contractors but nooooooooooooooo.... they rejected . Who in the world would not want more money ??? you? me? *tsk* mad people . Well lets see if by NOT working , are they able to live without money ? Its the same as living without Air .. the suffering to go through that , my god its painful .

Anyway , maybe they are rich ? Have three four gunny sacks of gold coins ? Can turn everything they touch into gold like King Midas ? Or MAYBE they can spin straw into gold like Rumpelstiltskin ? We will never know . But if they do...why are they even showing their face back here ? *snickers* . Touch your heart and tell yourself if you can live without these two things ; Air and Money . Until then remember , life is not a bed of roses , if it is , all of us will be floating instead of walking on the ground. ( David Blaine wannabe )

Swine ( *oink oink* ) Flu


As annoying as the name , it annoyingly attacks the whole world.
Its exactly like a stray dog pushing its way through our gates trying to
get comfortable in our very own comfort zone.

Swine should be pronounced phonetically as /swaɪn/ - (yes i did learn phonetics during my uni days , i dont even know how I manage to get through that class - teacher was so boring !)

From the dictionary it is translated as "any stout, cloven-hoofed artiodactyl of the Old World family Suidae, having a thick hide sparsely covered with coarse hair, a disklike snout, and an often short, tasseled tail: now of worldwide distribution and hunted or raised for its meat and other products. Compare hog, pig, wild boar. " Ugh! reading the meaning itself makes me sick to my stomach :( , although I do eat pork and I have nothing to hide about that .
Unconciously I also check of the symtoms and how it could spread . But so far , by eating pork does not make you a victim of this deadly virus. ( thank god! )

My concern are :
1. 159 people have already lost their lives within 3 days !
Looking at the rate , this could
mean doomsday .
2. Proper vaccine can only be produced in 6 months ! whats going to happen within 6
months ???? half of south america gone ?
( just imagine watching Will Smith's movie
`I Am Legend' - scary!! )
3.Countries affected to date : Mexico , USA , Britain , Spain , Germany , Canada , New Zealand ,
Costa Rica and Israel -
Nine countries less than a week ?? Who can stop air (ever)
from moving , unless all of us are Autobots and Decepticons from
Transformers . ( yeah right !) .

WHO ( World Health Organisation) have set alert levels which I feel we should know just in case Malaysia starts announcing : "Level 1! , Level 2! "

WHO ALERT LEVELS
Level 1 no viruses among animals reported to have caused infections in humans.
Level 2 animal flu virus is known to have caused infection in humans and is potential pandemic threat.

Level 3, animal or human-animal flu virus has caused small number of cases in people, but not sufficient for community-level outbreaks.
Level 4 is characterized by verified human-to-human transmission of animal or human-animal flu virus, indicating greater but not inevitable risk of pandemic.
Level 5 means human-to-human spread of virus is confirmed in two countries in one WHO region and pandemic is feared imminent.
Level 6 characterized by community-level outbreaks in at least one other country in second WHO region. This phase indicates global pandemic is under way.


So what is our next action or prevention measure for this swine flu ? Honestly I myself
have not done anything . My only concern is that this virus will infect my love ones .
As ugly as the name of the virus and the fact that I do at some point use it to describe those that I dislike (What does that swine think of himself! ) , this virus is deadly . Lets pray it will stop fast . As fast as a lightning and yes I am scared : /

Wrong Info !

Not sure what is what , but somehow , things are all super weird this past few days. And today again.
I texted May , one of client key contact person and wished her condolences for her mom's death .
But guess what?! she replied ..."My mom is so much alive.haha..she's admitted in hospital lah" . Oh my god ......
wrong info!! Word of mouth could not be trusted ! *sigh* embarassment for me ... *STARES AT SRI* ..Sri is the one who told me this.....................................
