SMILE Series - Japanese Human Tetris Game 1

The Japanese TV shows and technolgy never failed to intrigue me. Their ideas their Creativity are second to none i must say.

They have such imbecilic game shows that i desperately want to take part in and have a good time. Their version of the Japanese Tetris has contestants dressing up like human sperm cells and struggling to fit through impossible shapes in the approaching wall. If they don't have the agility of a spider, they will crash into a pool of water.

I would certainly like to sit down and pick out the creative brains of the Japanese producers. CREATE Creativity....this is sometime i never see it in Singapore. If only our game shows is as exciting as the Japanese...

Smile Series - Rocket Scientist doing the LAME thing

There's nothing more LAME than walking up and deciding to cruise the beach in your sexy, er...tricycle.

For one thing, your 5 year old nephew would bitch about not finding his ride and secondly, your butt is gonna ache.

Watch how this rocket scientist goes through the fast food restaurant's drive through. LAME yet FUNNY video...

Long-Haul Trips' Health Tips

I like to travel for long distance trip once every year and i thought the following will be impt for long-trip travellers to know -

Blood Clots on Long-Haul Trips:

The chances of developing deep vien hrombosis double after travelling for four hours or more, according to the WHO.

Tall people whoose legs are jammed in economy class and the very short whose feet do not touch the ground are particularly vulnerable to potentially dangerous blodd clost linked to immobility during travelling.

The obesem woman on birth control pills and those with blood clotting disorders are also more susceptible, as are the frequent travellers and those who take very long journeys.

About two billion people travel by air each year and many more take overland trips where they sit still for prolonged periods.

Reduction of Occurence:

To reduce the chance of developing blood clots, WHO said travellers should excercise their calf muscles with up-and-down movements of the feet and ankle joints, and leave their seats or a few minutes when possible.

WHO also cautioned air passengers from taking too much sleeping pills or drinking too much alcohol. People should also avoid wearing tight clothing that can constrain circulation.

Seven "New" Wonders of The World - Details

The following video shows a more details of the Seven "New" Wonders of The World.
Shots taken from different angles and at different times of the day.

The Petra in jordan was actually carved into the stone!!! It has perfectly sharp edges and truly amazing. Surely deserves to be a wonder The Christ Redeemer looks amazing and no one even knows how they got it all the way up that mountain!



But sometimes i just wonder - How come it can only be 7 Wonders of The World!?!
Can't we accomodate the old list and add on the current 7 new winners and make it 14 Wonders of The World. All this all Wonders of The World, Why must we differentiate them? Just to create more publicity? I am still pondering....

Anyhow, i would hope to be able to travel to all 7 Old + 7 New Wonders of The World, before the end of my time....It would such a great journey to look at such amazingly beautiful structures in humankind......
