5 new additions to Murphy’s Law

June 6th, 2008 1 Comment »

Are you careful enough? Do you know Murphy? If not, I am pretty sure that most people do because he is quite famous. He made famous the saying that means better NOT be careful than sorry. “If anything will go wrong, it will.” It was named after Captain Edward A. Murphy but, the he did not name the law to himself. Another man named Murphy did. He also died by his law. One dark evening somewhere in the United States, his car ran out of gas and as he hitchhiked to go to a nearby gas station, while facing traffic and wearing white, he was struck from behind by a British tourist who was driving on the wrong side of the road!

It doesn’t matter if it will embarrass a celebrity or a famous person. It will just happen. But do you know, there are other additions to this Murphy’s Law and these are facts already!

1.    Light travels faster than sound. This is also why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
2.    A fine is a tax for doing wrong; also, a tax is a fine for doing well.
3.    He, who laughs last, thinks the slowest.
4.    Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
5.    The 50-50-90 rule. Anything you have a chance of 50-50 of getting it right, there is a 90% probability you’ll get it wrong.

So, next time, try not to be careful or else, Murphy’s Law might strike at the least expected time you expect.

Will you change?

I was at an assembly earlier and one speaker said this. I was touched and thought, you should also hear it.

A girl was blind and she hated herself because of that. She only loved her boyfriend because he was always there for her. One day, the girl told the guy, “If only I could see the world, I would marry you.”

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything and most especially, her boyfriend. The guy asked the girl, “Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?”

The girl was shocked because she didn’t know her boyfriend was blind. The thought that she was going to marry someone blind for the rest of her life made her refuse the offer.

A few days after, a letter came which said, “take good care of your eyes, my love. for before they were yours, they were mine”

This is how our human brain works. When status changes, everything does. We tend to forget where we came from. Will you change?

5 creative patents you’ve always wanted

May 29th, 2008 No Comments »

Human beings are not contented on what they have now. For one reason, change is the only constant thing and it supports the theory that human beings can’t be satisfied with what they have. They will always find something new to improve and simplify their lifestyle.

When you want to make things easier, you need to buy something, like a calculator to solve your math problems or an automobile, if you do not want to walk to wherever you are going. That is not always the case because sometimes, what you need has not been invented just yet. You might be the only one who thought of it and I say, you go ahead and invent a contraption to make human lives here on earth easier.

After you’ve done and created your master piece and finished your invention to its details, the next step would be to file a patent so it could not be stolen. It is like a copyright that, whoever does the same contraption and purpose it can do, the first one who will file a patent will always win.

Below are some Patented inventions that I am sure you will lay your eyes on for the first time in your life.

The image “http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/4034/patent1wl2.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.
1.    A Cross USB Device – Nice gift for those religious relatives of yours. They can wear it as their necklace, put it in substitute for their rosaries or maybe, drive away evil? Who knows? What matters here is, you know that “Jesus Saves”.

http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/9940/patent2ev8.gif2.    Anti-eating face mask- I hope you are not one of the few million Americans who suffer from obesity because of all the fast foods from every corner of America are constantly tempting us? Worry no more because this device will surely make your eating habits long-be-gone! The said device will not interfere with your speech nor interfere with your breathing. In fact, this will help you reduce the germ intake you get when breathing through your mouth. Does it remind you of your neighbors’ vicious biting dog?

3.    Bird catcher/ cat feeder – Are you one of them Garfield lovers? This will make your cat feast on live “poultry” from time to time! We, humans love to eat live cooked fish, fresh vegetables, and everything else new. Cats, might feel the same and this should make them feel special. “I thought I saw a puddy tat.”

4.    Coition chair- sounds familiar? Solves a familiar problem? It sure does! This will make sure that you do your deeds and concentrate well without ever thinking of falling around and resetting. One of the most nicest patents I’ve ever seen if you ask me.

5.    Human Car wash – all of us need bathing and those who do not agree with me, well, I am sure nobody is around you now. Have you ever imagined how to make life easier by making a automatic bathing machine? It would save lots of time! Just stand there and wait until you are clean. This invention also eliminates slipping and tumbling around the shower. The “user” first enters the wetting station, then the soapy/ shampoo section. After that, you will be brought to the rinsing station and at the end, you won’t need to wash bulky towels anymore because there would be a blow drying station! You can now concentrate singing the song in you wanted to finish while taking a shower!

Those people who filed the patents above helped the world one way or another. How are you helping the world satisfy their urges?

Why you should drink coffee for breakfast and dinner

May 27th, 2008 No Comments »

Coffee is usually associated with breakfast. It is part of an everyday meal for some who are addicted to caffeine even without them noticing that they are already addicted to it.
The word itself makes you think of royal intrigue in exotic land because coffee has a romantically deep past which leans toward mystery and adventure.

http://i.timeinc.net/recipes/i/recipes/sl/02/11/spiced-coffee-sl-364817-l.jpg

In the Spice Islands, it is called Java. Portuguese traders called it café. Arab explorer named it Gahwah. In most countries today, even those mentioned above, it is known as coffee. I hope you do not call your coffee drink as Starbucks.  It was first utilized for spiritual reasons by the Muslim monks. Arabians on the other hand used the pulps of fermented coffee beans to make wine.

It also has the following “IMPORTANT” benefits:

Increases female libido and sperm mobility
A Brazilian study showed that coffee intake makes the sperm more mobile. Aside from being a baby making aid, it also shows that coffee drinkers enjoy sex until their late years. In women, they administered caffeine in female rats (sorry for the disgusting example, but rats are the living thing they use to test drugs for cause and effects.) and it took them less time to go back to their mates because they were somewhat excited, to that effect.

Maintains alertness and activeness
Since most of us work like slaves, working the hours off the night, we need coffee to stay awake. Caffeine will give you a “nitrous” boost effect in our blood sugar level by releasing adrenaline. It will now mix produce glucose that will make our muscles work on the double. A warning though: If you raised your adrenaline by drinking coffee but your work entails you to minimal movement, those glucose will now be converted to fat.

So, now you know why people should drink coffee not only in the morning, but also, at night. There is no hard evidence but if you tell your partner that it has that effect, it might affect them psychologically and you might enjoy after all.

Another beginning

Welcome to my new domain!  Life has been pretty stressful but there are still good things that did happen and this is one of them.

The same rants and sensible thoughts and information will be continued in this new home.  New things always have positive effects.

No panic attacks but got sick anyways

Yes, you heard it right. After long days of working pressure, I got a fever.  I rested for the entire day but, work kept on bugging me. There was simply no way to run away from my work. Even though at times, it is I who thinks of my responsibility. Having responsibility is different from just having work. Having responsibility entails you to still have leaves and holidays but, your mind will be on it all the time, even weekends!

Are we trained not to worry? Why am I worrying too much? Hope I get well soon because I can’t afford to miss work for 2 days straight.

3 outrageous reasons for blogging

March 11th, 2008 No Comments »

Living life is like a riding a rollercoaster. You feel fearful at first, then you feel excited then fearful again then you feel nauseated then you feel like you want to go higher and faster until you feel that your insides are flipping outside down until you give in and raise your hands in the air until you realize the ride’s over.

Life to me has been like this and I don’t have anyone to share it with. Work has taken my life in a gigantic way and it feels like it’s not my life anymore, so I decided to make a diversion and do this blog.

Why do we blog, really? Has the all-time diary lost it’s power? But I guess more people prefer to not keep things to themselves anymore, which I think is more relieving. In my case, one more day without writing this post will make me end up in the mad house! Just kidding, but it would really make me feel lonely. So, why do I blog?

1. The internet and I have an affair on a daily basis.

My work is based online so we’re closer than I am with an actual person right now.

2. The only noise I hear lately is the sound of my ipod.

My ears are stucked with the earphones and when nothing’s on them, I’m already slumbering.

3. The last person to visit me was the post man.

Well, the post man did visited me with a number of mails for me. I didn’t see if it was a he or she but yesterday after I came home from work, my mailbox had new mails so someone did dropped by for me.

Sounds pathetic, right? I thought so, too. But I still know how to blowdry my hair and comb it so. I guess the main reason why I blog is to keep my sanity. How ’bout you? Why do you blog?
