Haunted Restaurant

Believe It Or Not!

Wizard World Theatre Restaurant at Sungei Wang Plaza is haunted. Something different here as customers can have their meals there and drop in at the 4D haunted adventure portion of the place to experience frightening moments. Hopefully they don't vomit. There are 3 different types of 'scare' level - the Gory, Scary, Not Scary Tour. You decide how much you want to be frightened.

The restaurant is owned by Believe It or Not Sdn Bhd, the operator of Ripley’s Believe It or Not! and Haunted Adventure in Genting Highlands as well. To display a gory place, the restaurant has Gothic-styled lights, tables with claws and rivets, eerily painted walls.

Special drinks are concocted with eerie names like Beautiful Spell, Handsome Spell and Incredible Spell. (source: The Star)

Privacy


I have seen some people who will shield their computer screen (with their hand or body) from people who walked pass them. Wonder why?

A guy, by the name of by Joe Malia, a graduating student in Interaction Design at the Royal College of Art in London created this piece of clothing. Would you be wearing this clothing just to have some privacy while surfing in public?

Too Good To Be True

One afternoon a lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.

He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?" "We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass." "

Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll feed you" the lawyer said.

"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under that tree.

"Bring them along" the lawyer replied.

Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You come with us also." The second man, in a pitiful voice then said, "But sir, I also have a wife and SIX children with me!"

"Bring them all, as well," the lawyer answered. They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine was once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said,

"Sir,you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."

The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place. The grass is almost a foot high."

Free Travel!!!

It's something for you to read only & not so much of an offer available somewhere for your taking.

But if you are poor enough and managed to get a last minute Venezuelan citizenship, you could still get a chance to travel for free provided you are sick at the same time. The Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez, has approved tentatively with the Cuban government in sending 100,000 poor Venezuelans who require medical attention. Cuban doctors in various medical fields will be ready to provide the medical services required. (source: Granma International)

What a nice president. And I'm sure they are real hard core poor people instead of related parties or cronies riding along the trip in getting FREE stuff. Surely no discrimination on which race will have more people or fixing any quota on other races.

Silk (II)

Silk (I)













Silkworm (Bombyx mori, Latin: silkworm of the mulberry tree") is the larva or caterpillar of a moth in the family Bombycidae, that is very important economically as the producer of silk. It is entirely dependent on humans for its reproduction and no longer occurs in the wild; silk culture has been practiced for at least 5000 years in China (Goldsmith et al., 2004). A silkworm's diet consists solely of mulberry leaves. It is native to northern China. Its nearest wild relative is Bombyx mandarina with which it is able to hybridize (Goldsmith et al., 2004), and which ranges from northern India to northern China, Korea and Japan. You can read more on Silkworms in Wikipedia.
