      I dont trust my right hand to get the gear properly, drivng on different side of the road and long distance is not exactly easy, with the GPS singing directions in miles intead of kilometres….

      You'll get the hang of it after a few days. If you rent one then you can come down anytime. And I'm kan cheong to take you to the 3 casinos within driving distance from my place. icon_mrgreen.gif

      They have a new backyard lappool and a small golf course in the backyard now.  Will show pics after I buy a camera or a camaera phone.

      So Jetta, when shall I visit you guys?

      Just call? Maybe you'll like to experience the weekend craft fair that I participate in? You have my number.

    • Though we enjoy nice weather here, it's sad that those fires are still burning in LA.

      They Walk Among Us and Many Work  Retail
      I was at the checkout of a K-Mart. The clerk rang up $46.64  charge. I
      gave her a fifty dollar bill. She gave me back $46.64. I gave  the
      money back to her and told her that she had made a mistake in MY  favor.
      She became indignant and informed me she was educated and knew  what she
      was doing, and returned the money again.  I gave her the money  back .
       
       same scenario! I departed the store with the $46.64. 

      They Walk Among Us and Many Work Retail
      I walked  into a Starbucks with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon
      for a grande latte.  I handed it to the girl and she looked over a t a
      little chalkboard that said  'buy one-get one free.' ' They're already
      buy-one-get-one-free,' she said, 'so  I guess they're both free'
      She handed  me my free lattes and I  walked out the door.
       

      They Walk Among Us!
      One day  I was walking down the beach with some friends when one
      of them shouted,  'Look at that dead bird!' Someone looked up at the
      sky and said,  'Where'?

      They Walk Among Us!

      While  looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate
      agent which  direction was north because, he explained, he didn't 

      want the sun waking him  up every morning.  She asked, 'Does the 
      sun rise in the north?'  When my brother explained that the sun 
      rises in the east,  and has for sometime, she shook her head 
      and said, 'Oh I don't keep up  with all that stuff.' 

      They Walk Among Us!!
      I  used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One
      day I got a  call from an individual who asked what hours the call
      center  was  open. I told him, 'The number you dialed is open 

      24 hours a day, 7 days a   ;week.' He responded, 'Is that Eastern 
      or Pacific time?' Wanting to end the call quickly, I said, 'Uh,  Pacific.' 

      They Walk Among Us!
      My sister has a  lifesaving tool in her car design ed to cut
      through a seat belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk.


      They Walk Among  Us!

      My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the  cases
      were discounted 10%.  Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases.  The
      cashier multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20%  discount.
       

      They Walk Among Us!

      I couldn't find my  luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went 

      to the lost luggage office and  told the woman there that my bags 
      never showed up. She smiled and told me not  to worry because 
      she was a trained professional and I was in good hands.  'Now,' 
      she asked me, has your plane arrived yet?' 
        
      They Walk  Among Us!
      While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza 

      to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him  if he
      would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some & nbsp;time
      before responding. 'Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm  hungry
      enough to eat 6 pieces.'
       
        
      Yep, They Walk Among  Us! 
        
        
      They Walk Among Us, 
      and they Reproduce, 
      and Worst of all ........... 
        
        
                              
                            THEY VOTE

    • Better than nothing. Just remember to wash your hands often. That really helps prevent the spread of the virus. Call when you get here!

       Hope your sister's neighbourhood isn't affected by that fire in LA. Riverside and Orange County are on alert.

      I had to reduce the number of bak guas because the errmmm......weight went kinda overboard....so its now only 21 boxes of bak gua and 3 tins of bak hu.....& 3 small packets of uncooked prawn crackers in flower shape.

      I asked the Bee Chiang Hiang people why they wont set up store in USA.  The auntie replied that they did.  Maybe it went kaputed?

      If we take a franchise there. You think you want to errrmmm....help set up store?

      And dpnt tempt me.  I stay clear of casinos nowadays. I am a lousy gambler.  I lose money too fast.

      I still want to go to Old Town San Diego.  There is a 'Del Sol' shop there where I can buy lots of change colour nail polish when exposed to sun radiation.

      Come on over anytime. Bingo isn't as bad as playing the table games or slots. You'll have fun. I'll arrange for a few friends to join us when we go up. The bingo halls give us free beverages too. I'm not a gambler. Seeing the evils of gambling through my mahjong loving Mother has set me in the other direction.

      I would love to set up a store. That's been a dream of mine for a long time. Did I tell you that I've registered a biz here?

      Mr Jetta doesn't cook. He only knows how to heat things up. icon_lol.gif After his class at Sur la Table, he's thinking of taking another class. The one he's interested in is, how to know which knife to use. I'm also thinking of joining him but we have to wait till after the holidays. I always overextend myself during this time of year and this year is worse. icon_rolleyes.gif

      You know, you could google that information. Did you hear that google has started to post a flu chart of sorts? icon_lol.gif

      They say that this year's strain will be bad and everyone is advised to get flu shots.
