A Miracle in the Making ....



The world has... Lance Amstrong, champion of Tour de France for a record-breaking 7x through 1999-2005. Prior to this, he also survived testicular cancer, a germ cell tumor that metastasized to his brains and lungs, in 1996. His cancer treatments included brain and testicular surgery and extensive chemotherapy, and his prognosis was not originally considered to be great.
                               
The world has... Tiger Woods who in 2008 accumulated 14 golf Majors and played the 2008 US Open injured with a knee ACL and a double hairline fracture in his leg and won. Simply amazing.



The world has... Oscar Pistorius a double amputee South African wanting to participate the Beijing Olympics 2008, and compete with abled runners. They called him the blade runner


And the world also has... Naje, whom we hope can have a miraculous recovery of a brain encephalitis. He is still in coma in the ICU ward of the Damansara Specialist Centre, but there are positive signs of imminent recovery. We know that he is fighting strong, and we'll pray beside him all the way

What would you do ... ?

Yesterday my wife and I went to the GSC to catch Hancock on screen after all those persistent hype from Chewbacca. It was Sunday a 9.35pm show and as I did not had my dinner, decided to smuggle-in a McD quarter-pounder from 4 storeys down QueensbayMall. In planning to have a great time without the kids, we further decided to have some more... a super large pop corn package + large lemon tea from the cinema's F&B outlet. Both of us knew that the cinema won't allow outside food, and 'intelligently' shoved the McD into the pop corn bucket and walk happily thru the gates.

Pow Wow, you guys know what happened?! the plan turned awry, we were being stopped. The guy asked... 'bro, you can't bring outside food. Its against the regulation' ...and I confidently replied ..."what outside food are you talking about? its pop corn bro!!!" He had oh such a wicked smile (that I will never forget)...he said "its what inside the pop corn bucket"

&%%!!@##? Yoda, a green creature, turned flushy red with total embarassment!! He had to surrender his 4-storey-hardwalking-rm6.40 quarter pounder!! In a huff off we went into the cinema gallery and for the next 20 minutes Hancock is no longer interesting. Idea flashes keep on unveiling in my mind (Yoda turned into the dark side?) Revenge? to cover for the self inflicted humilation? Option 'A' was to spill the big bucket all over the carpet floor, and Option 'B' to wet the carpet with lemon fragrance, while Option 'C' to combine 'A & B'. The story will be continued ..... (in the meantime, what would you do?) oooh empathy empathy you shall...hmmmrphh
