Got this through email, Michael Phelps during birth:
This is for the more imaginative:
Just something random.
And this is what Michael Phelps did when he wins his 100m butterfly:
Sportsmanship FTW!
Singapore lost, it was a good match considering that it sort of lasted quite long. Comparatively to Hong Kong’s match, it is already very good. Singapore’s table tennis team got a silver this time. This is also the first medal awarded to Singapore since our independence.
It’s a good year after all. This could well increase Olympics awareness in Singapore. It’s a little unfortunate that the table tennis team did not comprise of - ahem - too many Singapore natives. At least I can see Li Jiawei singing the Chinese national anthem too.
I guess that ends our Beijing Olympics quest for medals. I look forward to four years later.
[Note: If I could, I would have bury this post as inaccurate. It spreads around some friends and a couple of us picked it up and thought it was true.]
Hey, it’s nothing man. That little bit of Singapore flag brushing on the ground is a mistake and it’s really nothing compared to this:
Oh no he didn’t!
Same data for the Olympics, different way of presentation:
Singapore rather covers Thaksin in the front page. That’s because we haven’t won any medals yet. Channel NewsAsia Beijing Olympic site talks about the Olympic spirit, the dance and some Olympic history.
Got this as a forwarded message from a paranoid friend of mine:
FW: Police Warning… don’t delete… pass it on
PLEASE INFORM EVERYONE
Emails with pictures of Osama Bin-Laden hanged are being sent and the moment that you open these emails your computer will crash and you will not be able to fix it!
If you get an email along the lines of ‘Osama Bin Laden Captured’ or ‘Osama Hanged’ don’t open the attachment.
This e-mail is being distributed through countries around the globe… Be considerate & send this warning to whomever you know.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:
You should be alert during the next days: Do not open any message with an attached filed called ‘Invitation’ regardless of who sent it.
It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which ‘burns’ the whole hard disc C of your computer.
This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list, that is why you should send this e-mail to all your contacts.
It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.
If you receive a mail called ‘invitation’, though sent by a friend, do not open it and shut down your computer immediately.
This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever.
This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus.
This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.
Most people use web mail these days are you can pretty much go on ahead to open that email in your browser. I wonder when they wrote this shit.
The tone is unprofessional and rather funny. I recall during secondary school, I was tempted to write my own chain letter. That didn’t happen.
I hate it when people forwarding me chain letters. And chain letters would always say something like if you forward this email 50 times you’ll find true love. If you forward it 40, you’ll be in good luck. If you forward to 30, you’ll be happy for a couple of days. And if you don’t forward, that email will put you in deep shit.
You know, I - like any other person - want to find true love. So I just couldn’t help but to email the sender back slightly more than 50 times (just in case). May true love be found.
