Pain and Agony of Conflicting Reports

Wednesday 3 January 2007 @ 12:48 am

Darn it.

Can’t the Indonesia Authority get things right.

First that Adam Air flight KI574 lost contact in the Sulawesi mountain range enroute to Manado. Then there was reports of it crash landed (Durgh…of course…right?)

Then, bad news of 90 bodies found , with 3 American citizens on board the flight, things could get worse.

Eventually, it was all hear say.

So lets pray for those passengers safety, or for their souls to be at peace.




Happy New Year~!

Is ReviewMe worth a review by itelf?

Sunday 24 December 2006 @ 8:55 am

I was sad looking thru some people not being paid on time by ReviewMe.Com
Like this dude @ http://www.bloggingpoet.com/bloggingpoetcom/2006/12/22/an-extended-review-of-reviewmecom.html

Seems that while even big time companies like Commission Junction or TradeDoubler have some technical difficulties, I kinda be soft with em especially during the winter months, due to technical errors, Like Tradedoubler, due to a payment technical banking error, we were paid 6months late.

So,at times, we need to get the cash quick,to pay bills and sort. But we have to be patient. This is not a fulltime job. A sideline as we deed it.

What do you think?

Skype Out charges….

Sunday 24 December 2006 @ 3:48 am

Let me get this straight, we have to pay for a connection charge now??
Then why are we still charged for our skype In??
3 Eurocents per call ….why did I blog myself about that so fast….

So, eventually, my London number, 020 and US number 517…then what of my Freefone / Toll free number?




Did I go overboard again?

Saturday 23 December 2006 @ 3:26 pm

Yeah Yeah.. we heard it all,that we took on too much on our plate. I used to take alot of loans to cover my expenses and other things without thinking anything at all…hoping to make it.

While Personal Loans may come as other form of names, like Ready Credit, Easy Cash or what nots that the branding the local banks have, it’s all the same. They are basicly , personal UNSECURED LOANS or Tenant Loans.
Similar to Secured Loans , nicknames like Second Mortgage or Dial-a-loan are just the same. They charge your title deed to the loan you took. So , if you default, it’s bye-bye home. Normally people take a Secured Loan for refurbishment where they can extend a limit of normally up to 125% of the Equity of the Home. For some, it’s extra cash in hand, and some used them to buy a second home …..well.. I’ll tell you more about that…cos I was really stirred by the BBC’s Homes Under The Hammer program.
I think I better kill those card bills by taking a secured loan instead as the 29.9% interest is killing me,compared to the 9.9% by purple loans.

Seasonal Greetings

Saturday 23 December 2006 @ 3:12 pm

I just don’t believe it really.

Honest and true to oneself.

What am I talking about? Well, a person greeting Christians Merry XMAS (note the X not Christ) angered some silly folk at the PayPerPost forum. And to top that off, another monkey wrote that it’s really AGAINST ISLAM to wish them Merry Christmas. What?

Did not he read what is said by the Muslim Council.

I’m NOT Gonna wish for some people or tribe’s BAD THOUGHTS… cos it’s actually FORBIDDEN by ALLAH and His Rasul, so we wish them the best, that may they be shown the path.

To the Christians, Merry Christmas, Jews, Happy Channukah, Muslims Salam Aidil-Adha and for all, HAPPY NEW YEAR, May 2007 be blessed with Good Fortune,Prosperiety,Great Health and more good things to come.

As they say it in Chinese, GONG XI FA CAI. Good and Well Wishes to all
