Encore 2005 : Attention all Flight Attendants......

I recently took a a flight to Hong Kong.The flight was 5.30am in the morning.
Halfway during the flight, I was woken up by a flight attendent.....for my meals


STOP waking us on planes to eat your crummy food. If we're sleeping, let us sleep. Would you want to be awakened in your bed to eat a crappy omelete?

I didn't think so.

Nobody wants to be woken up for anything. You eat when you get up. What is the god damn emergency? You think you have the only food in the world? Last piece of food I'm gonna get in Earth or something?
Food IS available elsewhere!!

Of the 2 things you do in a plane, sleeping is extremely difficult. Eating is very very easy. If we have accomplished the hard one, don't come shaking us to do the moronic one, namely , eating your crappy food.

All we want is to get where we're going and hopefully not be totally exhausted. That's very important to us. Your wake up calls are unneccessary. We'll call you if we are hungry.

Thank You.

(But for attendants with a Thousand Dollar Smile, you can wake me up anytime!

Encore 2005 : Measuring Distance

I realised you can measure distance by time.

" How far away is that place? "
" About 15 minutes "

But it doesn't work the other way

" When do you think you can finish this? "
" Around 4 km "

Platonic Relationship

Apparantly Plato, who came up with the concept of the platonic relationship, was pretty excited about it.

For those who don't know the Man, he was a famous Greek philosopher. Plato wrote about many ideas in philosophy that are still talked about today.

(For those who know who is Adam Chen and Not Plato, Please Stop reading my Blog. Now.)

Ok Now, back to Plato. He named it after himself.

He probably said ``Yeah, I got this new thing-- "platonic". My idea, my name, calling it after myself... What I do is, I go *out with the girls, I "talk" with them - don't "do" anything... and go right home after that.

" What do you think? I think it's going to be big thing. "

I bet you there were other guys in history that tried to get relationships named after them, but it didn't work.

I bet there were guys who tried to do it like plato

" Hi, my name's Rico. Would you like to go to bed immediately? Hey, it's a Riconic relationship..."

" Hi there. Names Ewan. I think we should have a Ewanic relationship. I call a few friends, you call a few , lets have an orgy "

Plato must have been a Niceeeeee Guy.
