Huhuuu.....See if you laughed out loud as me when you read this. Got it from Yahoo.
SYDNEY (AFP) - – A flatulent pig sparked a gas emergency in southern Australia when a farmer mistook its odours for a leaking pipe, according to officials.
Fifteen firefighters and two trucks were called to a property at Axedale in central Victoria state after reports of a gas leak, the Country Fire Service said.
"When we got there, as we drove up the driveway, there was this huge sow, about a 120-odd kilo (265-pound) sow, and it was very obvious where the gas was coming from," said fire captain Peter Harkins.
"We could not only smell it, but we heard it and it was quite funny."
Harkins said the pig's owner was "a little bit embarrassed to say the least," and it took fire crews a little while to compose themselves.
"It was fairly obvious what it was. I think we dealt with it fairly professionally and had a bit of a giggle when we got back to the station," he told public broadcaster ABC.

I've been quite concerned about the tremor some of my colleagues felt in office the day Sumatera was hit with earthquake. Was working with the others at the same floor but mayb I was at the middle of the office space instead of the side. Wondering if residing in our country is still safe. Someone please reassure me on this.
Lastly, I just feel like dancing along with some Colby Caillat songs with my toes lifted slightly up on the air....................................................;0)

As far as the ingredients go, because there are not a lot of competing flavors in this cookie this is one time when buying a good quality unsalted butter is advisable. Also, use 'pure' vanilla extract not the ones that are labeled 'imitation' as they are made with synthetic vanilla (from glycoside found in the sapwood of certain conifers or from coal extracts) and leave a bitter aftertaste. The best pure vanilla extract I have found, although it is quite expensive, is Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract that can be found in specialty food stores and by mail order. If your budget doesn't allow this expenditure or you cannot find it, don't worry, there are quality brands to be found in your local grocery store.
Incidentally, you may have seen Melting Moments that look very different from the picture above. Sometimes the dough is placed in a piping bag with a fluted tip and then piped into rosettes. The finishing touch is to top each cookie with a red or green candied cherry. Other times the dough is rolled into a crescent shape with the ends sometimes dipped in melted chocolate."
After reading the article, I still think it was my first time eating Melting Moments yesterday. I wonder if that's the one they served during CNY...still no clue till now.

"The Chocolate Chip Cookie was invented by Ruth Wakefield, who was the owner of the Toll House Inn in Massachusetts. The story goes that one day in 1930 she decided to add small chunks of a Nestle's Semisweet Yellow Label Chocolate bar to her butter cookie dough.
Few Sunday's ago, I happen to be wondering around in an art gallery which have arts (doink, what else can an art gallery sell?!) for sale.
The days when I burnt the midnight oil for exams...
Light, moderate and vigorous types of sports. What stage are u at now?
The hardest was to run on the treadmill. Tw's mum said if your heartbeat stays at 70-80 heartbeat rate per minute, then it's ideal. My heartbeat was going at 90, then 101, then 120, then 140!
Goodness gracious. I was worried when it reached 140-150. For once, when the number goes higher, it's nearer to danger.
I stopped jogging on the treadmill @ the 7th minute. I couldn't even reach for 10. My head was already spinning, and I was pale. I quickly sat down. Damn. I felt weak for my age. Tw mum did threefold of my time.
I plan to go further next round. 7 to 10. 10 to 20. 20 to 30.
And if I did it one day, I will let you know in my next blog(>.<).
