Just a 'lil joke

A tour bus driver is driving with a bus load of seniors down a highway when he is tapped on his shoulder by a little old lady. She offers him a handful of peanuts, which he gratefully munches up.

After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder again, and another hands him another handful of peanuts .....

She repeats this gesture about five more times.

When she is about to hand him another batch again, he asks the little old lady, 'Why don't you eat the peanuts yourself?'

'We can't chew them because we've no teeth,' she replied.

The puzzled driver asks, 'Why do you buy them then?'

The old lady replied, 'We just love the chocolate around them.'

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.
