I’ve done the accounts and we’re making profits.
The pantry girl is early and will make you coffee.
The staff are happy and their morale is high.
The customers are satisfied and ready to buy.
Yea…
The pigs are fed and ready to fly.
I've decided again'st going to Scotland, the train ride there was going to be more expensive than i thought, guess Nessie will have to wait then. I am however, going to Bristol. More for the novelty than anything else.

Oh my God by Benjamin Chiang
This is a prelude to an article I’m about to publish, so remember, you read it here first at bigheadache.blogspot.com!! *Please note that it is only a first draft*
Here’s a question: If a branch breaks off a tree and falls to the ground in the middle of the forest, would it make a noise?
Yes you say? How would you know? Were you there to hear it?
It’s true enough it is common sense to assume whenever a heavy object hits the ground, it should make a noise. However, there could be other factors on hand causing it to not to. Maybe a trampoline was under the tree. Maybe twenty men were on hand to cushion the impact of the fall. Even if you find the branch on the ground, it is not a conclusive evidence of what has occurred before.
Science and evidence can be a fallible method of proving something. Evidence can be tailored, and a whole event can be setup to convince the bystander to take to the side of whoever can sustain more “proof”. How many individuals have had a sentence passed on them just because they were unable of proving them innocent? Is science and media a fair system of judgement?
On the 8th of August 2000, the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia, Anwar Ibrahim was convicted of sodomising his driver. To cut a long story short, he was later acquitted in 2004 after the court decided on his innocence. 4 years in prison for nothing?
The media now sheds so much attention on the reclusive Michael Jackson. Do you think he was guilty of what he was charged with, or perhaps he is merely a victim of conspiracy?
If one was not there personally to see something happen, it is merely hearsay. Scientific evidence is merely an aid for sustaining beliefs. Scientific evidence is biased to what the perpetrator wants you to believe.
Let’s look further into this fact. In fact, let’s look several billion years into the past.
Scientists say that billions and billions of years ago, a dot exploded from nothingness and expanded to form the universe. Billions of years later, gas clouds cooled to form solid rock. Millions of years thereafter, a fish crawled out of a pond and another couple of million years later, he evolved into modern man.
How would these scientists know? Were they there to see it happen? In fact, is scientific proof even available? It’s been a couple billion years now, any form of evidence would already have been erased. Wouldn’t it then merely be a theory when one insists the Big Bang and the Evolution of Species was how mankind came onto this planet?
Some of you may argue to say scientific tools like carbon dating and the discovery of pre- homosapien fossils are the fundamental proof that such events have indeed occurred in history.
If you believe that, you are a victim of media and you have never been further from the truth. Edward de Bono has preached that “Perception is real, even if it is not reality…” and indeed evolution has had the unfair advantage. Would it be right to say that the larger the numbers who believe in a theory, the larger the number of books, articles, television programmes and magazines would be written in support of that theory?
Whenever someone tells me that “If you think God exists, then show me the proof!”, I always tell them that no matter what evidence I show you, you would merely brush it off and counter attack it with some other theory. A perfectly legitimate case of evidence show would then degenerate into nothing more than a debate. With the winner being the one who speaks the loudest.
If you think no solid, scientific proof exists to ascertain the world did not arrive via evolution, then you have not been reading in the right places. In fact, you may not even want to know that such evidence does indeed exist. In fact, if it were not in the Bible, scientists would have no problem in believing that a global flood indeed has happened. Science has no problem accepting that all mankind could be traced to one source in Africa, yet they refuse to believe Adam and Eve were the first man and the first woman.
There is so much material available regarding the error of carbon dating, that dinosaurs and man did live together at the same time, how all the different species of man turned out to be a scientific fluke, yet material like this is not as common as those propagating evolution! You cannot say that it is not science, because it is. You cannot say that these are all unproven theories, because they are. Creation is not given enough attention because the world doesn’t want to believe in it. If you really wanted to learn, you would be surprised to know that research and science has PROVEN that evolution is not a theory and the world was indeed a result of creation.
So the next time you want me to show you proof that God exists… well… I can show Him to you, but then I’d have to kill you.

Motivation...such an aggravation...
The impossible has happend: I got my car stolen!!
but hey, don't feel sorry for me, feel sorry for the thief! I've been trying to get rid of that thing all along and he's done me a big favour! I mean, it'll cost me money to try to get the thing scrapped, now all i have to do is to report the car as stolen...pity i didn't have insurance on the thing though.
There's a Singapore Food Festival going on in Coven Garden this weekend!! Damn, home cooked food away from home...how bout that? I'm not going to miss this for the world...
