Joke Of The Day
Scientists at Rolls Royce built a gun specifically to launch dead chickens at the windshields of airliners and military jets all travelling at maximum velocity. The idea was to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl to test the strength of the windshields. American engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it on the windshields of their new high speed trains. Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the American engineers. When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurled out of the barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens, blasted through the control console, snapped the engineer’s back-rest in two and embedded itself in the back wall of the cabin like an arrow shot from a bow..
The horrified engineers sent Rolls Royce the disastrous results of the experiment, along with the designs of the windshield and begged the British scientists for suggestions. Rolls Royce responded with a one-line memo:

The World's What !?!?!?
This duck-head-looking 1936 Bugatti 57SC Atlantic was bought for a price tag of $30~40million!!! it was so titled "the world's most expensive car".. what the hell were they thinking about??? i'll give it a title too, "the world's ugliest car".. and apparently, Ralph Lauren has 1 of the 2 (the other, which is the one in the above picture, was sold) completely original Atlantics in this world!!! >.< i'd rather buy 40million bucks worth of super cars or super luxury cars or even a private jet instead of this..

Scenery there was spectacular yet the one i love most was from the BOH tea plantation..
Items bought:
1) half a fridge of strawberries:
2) 12 bottles of strawberry jam
3) 3 bottles of strawberry cordial
4) 1 bottle of strawberry topping
5) 3 bottles of honey
6) 2 bottles of propolis extraction
7) 15bucks worth of veggie
8) 2kgs of corns
9) 2kgs of sweet potatoes
10) a box of ceylon tea
11) flowers (not sure bout the price)
guess that's it (was too boring, so i listed all out =.=), am not sure what else i left out.. the strawberry part was a little too much, and i guess that was enough to supply us for a full year of strawberry crave (to clarify, we gave out 3/4 of strawberries, strawberry cordial and strawberry jams, haven't lost our minds to keep everything to ourselves)..
p/s:
daddy, 1 more time i see you using the phone while driving, i'll issue you a summon before the police do..
