Joke of the Century
If Chua Soi Lek is the joke of the year, then Malaysia’s ranking is Joke of the century. Yes I think it would take that long before we can really solve this problem. My colleague (who hails from London) was laughing over this - he said he’s even surprised Msia is even ranked hehehe.
Well I can’t blame him - Malaysia below Pakistan? I think the locals aren’t laughing because it was already funny when Myanmar beat us a few years ago - now it’s just a boring fact.
Wanna have a laugh? Check out the FIFA ranking (Find Malaysia on page 4 - second last page).

When dad and son don’t support the same team
A funny news I read today. A father taped the jersey of his favourite team onto his son who wouldn’t want to wear them, probably he didn’t like the team or just didn’t like the father. I will see if my Jordan will support Manchester Utd too, if not, I will confiscate all his toys and blackmail him haha. Kidding.
PORTAGE, Wis. - Upset that his 7-year-old son wouldn’t wear a Green Bay Packers jersey during the team’s playoff victory Saturday, a man restrained the boy for an hour with tape and taped the jersey onto him.
Mathew Kowald was cited for disorderly conduct in connection with the incident with his son at their home in Pardeeville, Lt. Wayne Smith of the Columbia County Sheriff’s Department said. Pardeeville is about 30 miles north of Madison.
The 36-year-old Kowald was arrested Monday after his wife told authorities about the incident. Kowald was taken to the county jail and held until Wednesday, when he pleaded no contest, paid a fine of $186 and was released.
Kowald’s wife filed a restraining order Wednesday, so Kowald will not be able to have contact with his family, Smith said. Smith said other domestic issues have surfaced, though he wouldn’t elaborate.
The boy refused to wear the jersey Saturday, when the Packers beat the Seattle Seahawks in a playoff game, Smith said. Smith said the incident sounded strange when reported at first, but the mother took pictures with her cell phone and that type of evidence is difficult to dispute.
How to play the piano if your hands are too small
A funny piece from Igudesman & Joo, from their hit show “A Little Nightmare Music”. This one is titled “Rachamaninov had big hands”. I looked it up and sure enough, Rachamaninov really did have big hands. It was stated that his large hands were able to cover the interval of a thirteenth on the keyboard (a hand span of approximately twelve inches).
Enjoy.
