Joke of the Day!
A Bus stops and two Italian men get on. They sit down and engage in animated Conversation.
The Lady sitting next to them ignores them at first, But her attention is galvanized when she hears one of them say this.
'Emma come first . Den I come. Den two asses come together. I come once more! Two asses come together Again. I come again and pee twice. Den I come one lasta time.
The Lady can't take any more of this,
'You foul mouthed Sex Obsessed pig ! She retorted Indignantly ' In this country we do not speak aloud in Public Places about our Sex lives '
'Hey Coola Down Lady ,' said the Man. Who talking about Sex ? I was just telling my friend how to spell
'mississippi'
You Know your going to read this again.

jason mraz - a beautiful mess
You've got the best of both worlds You're the kind of girl who can take down a man, And lift him back up again You are strong but you're needy, Humble but you're greedy And based on your body language, And shouted cursive I've been reading Your style is quite selective, Though your mind is rather reckless Well I guess it just suggests That this is just what happiness is
And what a beautiful mess this is It's like picking up trash in dresses
Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write Kind of turn themselves into knives And don't mind my nerve you could call it fiction But I like being submerged in your contradictions dear 'Cause here we are, here we are
Although you were biased I love your advice Your comebacks they're quick And probably have to do with your insecurities There's no shame in being crazy, Depending on how you take these Words I'm paraphrasing this relationship we're staging
And what a beautiful mess this is It's like picking up trash in dresses
Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say Kind of turn themselves into blades And kind and courteous is a life I've heard But it's nice to say that we played in the dirt oh dear Cause here we are, Here we are Here we are [x7] We're still here What a beautiful mess this is It's like taking a guess when the only answer is yes
Through timeless words, and priceless pictures We'll fly like birds, out of this earth And times they turn, and hearts disfigure But that's no concern when we're wounded together And we tore our dresses, and stained our shirts But it's nice today, oh the wait was so worth it.

Here is an interesting recent article by our good finance minister.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SINGAPORE : Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam has warned that Singapore could face another round of inflation if companies increase wages to help workers cope with the higher cost of living today.
He said this will also affect Singapore's competitiveness and the ability to create jobs.
Mr Tharman was speaking to some 500 workers at the Singapore Industrial and Services Employees' Union dinner on Wednesday evening.
Higher rice and oil prices have led some Singaporeans to call on the government to set the tone by raising wages.
But Mr Tharman said such short-term measures are not prudent. Instead, he said the government has provided assistance to help Singaporeans deal with the higher cost of living.
These include S$500 million in GST Credits - to help citizens cope with the increased Goods and Services Tax - and special bonuses for senior citizens.
Mr Tharman said Singapore also addresses the problem of inflation mainly through its exchange rate policy. Since the beginning of last year, the Singapore dollar has appreciated by 11 per cent against the US dollar.
However, the minister said there is a limit to how much Singapore can allow its dollar to rise to fight inflation. Mr Tharman said if Singapore dramatically strengthens its dollar to offset the higher prices, it will instead hurt economic growth badly.
He said oil prices have increased by 50 per cent since the start of this year. And it has gone up by about 100 per cent compared to a year go. Food prices globally are now up to 60 per cent higher than one year ago.
Mr Tharman cautioned Singaporeans to brace themselves as oil prices may increase further.
He said, "We expect inflation to be between 5-6 per cent on average this year, with inflation being lower towards the end of the year. We also expect inflation in the second half of the year to be lower because the effects of last July's GST increase on inflation will wear out.
"However, the recent sharp increase in global oil prices will add pressure on inflation. So we are monitoring this and the impact on inflation closely, and will decide if inflation forecasts for this year need to be revised."
Looking at the global situation, Mr Tharman said the weakness in the US economy could extend into next year. But he maintains that Singapore can expect Gross Domestic Product growth to average between four and six per cent this year.
Mr Tharman said the lasting solution to inflation is to continue with efforts to help workers upgrade their skills and earn better wages.
He said it is also important to help experienced, mature workers stay employed and help home-makers get back to work. This will not only increase the household income, but help improve Singapore's tight labour market.
So let me get this straight in 3 points (which i got from ppl in hwarezoneforum heh)
1) things r getting more expensive due to GST up 2% and inflation 2) Foreign Talents are coming to our countries, snatching our jobs and places in uni (not to mention that companies prefer them bcos they dun have to do oh-wat-isit-called InCampTraining (which btw is from the government tsk)) 3) and now these very same ministers who just had an increase in their pay would not let us, peasants increase our salary to match the cost of living
wow.. MANY GOOD YEARS ahead as the hardwarezone ppl would say. and oh.. Mr Tharman said the lasting solution to inflation is to continue with efforts to help workers upgrade their skills and earn better wages. RIGHT.. ok.
haha but then again. who am i to judge. my economics knowledge is afterall very limited. hopefully whatever he says is true. or i foresee Singapore destroyed in less than 5 years under PAP. no punt intended :)
