YoYo flight fare? What's that?


As fuel costs keep rising airlines may start treating passengers `like freight'. When that happens, it means that your ticket value will fluctuate with your weight.

This will be good news for model-thin passengers. And think about corporation running on a budget. They may no longer be hiring heavy weights in the executive level as it will be too costly to fly them out on business trips.

Sumo wrestlers will no longer be flying out to foreign countries for competition. The wrestlers will be taking boat rides out to a selected venue in the middle of the ocean for matches.

Taking flights for the weight conscious could well be like being in a "Fear Factor" reality show. Dare you stand on the scale and declare your weight to determine your fare?

So, where did I get this news from?

It is only me rambling when I read "Airlines May Start Treating Passengers `Like Freight'", a Bloomberg article, a friend emailed me.

So, don't worry (yet) if you are on the heavy side. I read that all major airlines are not into this idea (yet).

Grants, licences and permits? Found at one spot..

I have written about where you can go to set up your business in Malaysia.

Now let us touch on getting grants, licences and permits. To find all the information you need, all you have to do is go to myGovernment Site Map and do your search there for the ministry you are interested in.

If you do not know the name of the ministry handling the licence and permit you are interested in, just hit on the "Ctrl" and "F" keys simultaneously. Then at "Find:" box on the bottom left of your monitor, type the word "licence" and enter.

Keep entering to search till you hit the ministry you are interested in. For an example, my first hit brought me to the link to "Licence and Permits" issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Agro-based Industry. If you click on that link you will be able to find information about licences and permits required to establish an agriculture, livestock or fishery-based business.

To find ministries providing grants, funds and incentives, hit on the "Ctrl" and "F" keys simultaneously and type "grant" or "fund" or "incentives" at the "Find:" box. Alternatively, you can type in "grant" at "Search this site" box and you will get a list of articles related to grants, funds and incentives.

Good luck in your business ventures.

Publicity stint that stinks.

I received the following comment in my posting, "They struck oil! In the trash.".

I went to the weblog to check it out and see that it provides Soccer / Football Live Score and they run this service through request for donations. It is clearly not related to my write up on my blog so I was wondering why he linked me. Then I noticed among his list of donors, my blog link was included with a claim that I have donated USD30.00.

This is not true and may give others a false impression that I advocate this site. I have requested the commenter to remove my blog link.

Now I am wondering what other "objectives" I have supposedly supported through such linkings.

================================================================================

i including this blog and add a link in my blog so that everyone is understand being GREEN is important. Welcome to my weblog

Why man shouldn't babysit

From my mailbox. This is funny but does not apply to every man. I have no qualms leaving my kids in my husband's care. I don't like doing that though because I am a "let's stick together" kind of wife.

=================================================================================

I couldn't have said it any better!

From My InBox:

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.

So love the people who treat you right.

Forget about the one's who don't.

Believe everything happens for a reason.

If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.

If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

Friends are like balloons; once you let them go, you might not get them back.

Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and problems that we may not even notice that we've let them fly away.

Sometimes we are so caught up in who's right and who's wrong that we forget what's right and wrong.

Sometimes we just don't realize what real friendship means until it is too late.

Nine Words Of the Female Language

The List Of Nine Words Of the Female Language That Men Need To Learn If They Wish To Survive.

Women have their own language. Men need to learn at least a part of this Foreign Tongue for survival. Every man alive on this planet should print the following list, memorize it, and keep it on their person at all times.

1. Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2. Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before doing some chore around the house.

3. Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "fine".

4. Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it, or you will pay.

5. Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6. That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7. Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says "Thanks a lot" - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say "you're welcome" ... that will bring on a "whatever").

8. Whatever: Is a women's non-profane way of saying @#!&% YOU!

9. Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's wrong?" For the woman's response refer to # 3.

Send this link to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology.


Send this link to all the women you know to give them a good laugh, because they know it's true.
