A Promise to the Goddess
A Promise to the Goddess
( rEdgE )
Alone that can’t even pull out a single tone
I stand alone
I walked alone
And I continue to live for my own
I woke up everyday
And tried to be happy
I ate my meals
Drive my wheels
And pay my bills
I tried to smile
And be happy even for awhile
I mingle with my friend
Hoping to be alright at the end
But I was wrong as I intend
I spent the whole day full of pretension
Even though I didn’t do more action
Everything seems to an illusion
I thought I’ll be able to win
But I was beaten by within
Then I realize
That happiness doesn’t matter for its size
So then I went out of blue
And that’s when I saw you
And watching you captures me so
Since then I feel something
Something that was amazing
Something that makes my heart pumping
That made me alive until morning
And inspired my everyday living
I sent you a message
A message that gave me a privilege
A privilege to know you more
Hopefully until with your heart’s core
That made myself restore
So then I told you about my feeling
A feeling that was amazing
A feeling that took away my pain
A pain that went through my vain
And made me insane
Then I saw you smiling
A smile that made my soul to sing
And seems everyone around me was dancing
Seems they know that I’m so much happy
Because you’re going to be with me
Now I know what is happiness
And leave my sadness
It is because of you
That gave me everything in you
So I promise to love you so
One time I saw you crying
That makes my heart cracking
So then you told me your past
You’re sad because it didn’t last
That makes me feel that my whole world did blast
Till then I promise
A promise to the goddess
To love with you as it is
To love you not forever
But until there is forever

Neither legal nor logical
A young Law student, having failed his Law exam, goes up to his crusty old professor, who is renowned for his razor-sharp legal mind.
Student: "Sir, do you really understand everything about this subject?"
Professor: "Actually, I probably do. Otherwise I wouldn't be a professor, would I?"
Student: "OK. So I’d like to ask you a question. If you can give me the correct answer, I will accept my marks as it is. If you can't give me the correct answer, however, you'll have to give me an "A".
Professor: "Hmmmm, alright. So what’s the question?"
Student: "What is legal but not logical, logical but not legal, and neither logical nor legal? "
The professor wracks his famous brain, but just can't crack the answer. Finally he gives up and changes the student's failing mark into an "A" as agreed, and the student goes away, very pleased.
The professor continues to wrack his brain over the question all afternoon, but still can’t get the answer. So finally he calls in a group of his brightest students and tells them he has a really, really tough question to answer: "What is legal but not logical, logical but not legal, and neither logical nor legal? "
To the professor's surprise (and embarrassment), all the students immediately raise their hands.
"All right" says the professor and asks his favourite student to answer
"It's quite easy, sir" says the student "You see, you are 75 years old and married to a 30 year old woman, which is legal, but not logical. Your wife has a 22 year old lover, which is logical, but not legal. And your wife's lover failed his exam but you've just given him an "A", which is neither legal, nor logical."

Credit Card Security
A. KEEPING YOUR CREDIT CARD SAFE
B. HOW YOUR CREDIT CARD SHOULD BE PROCESSED AT MERCHANTS
- Upon receipt of your new or renewal credit card, immediately sign the signature panel on the reverse side of the card.
- If you wish to return your credit card to your issuing bank, make sure to punch a hole on the center of the MAGNETIC STRIPE and cut the card through the length of the EMBOSSED CARD NUMBER and SECURITY HOLOGRAM.
- If you do not have any intention to use the card immediately, keep it in a secured vault at home or at the office. Do not leave your card in the open to avoid unauthorized usages.
- Keep a record of your CARD NUMBER, EXPIRATION DATE, and the CONTACT NUMBER of your issuing bank for emergency cases such as loss,theft or damaged cards.
- If you are issued a PIN mailer for ATM cash-advance facility, memorize the PIN NUMBER and destroy the letter immediately. You can always ask your issuing bank to reset your PIN should you forget your PIN NUMBER.
B. HOW YOUR CREDIT CARD SHOULD BE PROCESSED AT MERCHANTS
- Purchases through credit cards made at retail merchants and restaurants would generally take an average of two minutes. A long processing time would suggest something is wrong with your card and the merchant should always prompt you.
- Always witness how your card is being processed. As a rule of thumb, your card should always be “within your sight” when the transaction is being processed. Hand-offs of your credit card between sales clerks/waiters/cashiers is generally not an accepted practice. You can report this to your issuing bank.
- Make sure that the amount indicated in the invoice you are signing is the CORRECT TRANSACTION AMOUNT . Do not sign should there be any discrepancy. Call your issuing bank for assistance.
- If the merchant voids a transaction, there should be at least 2 sales draft copies with the word “VOIDED”. You should be given ONE COPY to avoid being billed for a voided transaction. Keep a copy of the voided saleslip.
- Encircle the transaction amount in the sales slip or cross out the blank space above the word TOTAL. This will prevent tampering of the amount after a transaction has been made.
- After the transaction is completed, check that the credit card handed back to you is YOURS. There have been incidences of intentional mishandling of cards to commit fraudulent transactions.

Stroke
Blood Clots/Stroke - They Now Have a Fourth Indicator, the Tongue.
This is good info to remember and use.
STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters.... S.T.R.
My nurse friend sent this and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree.
If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks. Seriously..
Please read:
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) ....she said she had just
tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.
They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening
Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00 pm Ingrid passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at
the BBQ. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don't die.... they end up in a helpless,
hopeless condition instead.
It only takes a minute to read this...
A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke... totally . He said the trick was
getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting
the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.
RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Thank God for the sense to remember the '3' steps, STR . Read and Learn!
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain
damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke
.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:
S * Ask the individual to SMILE.
T * Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)
(i.e. It is sunny out today)
R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.
If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call 999/911 immediately and describe the
symptoms to the dispatcher.
New Sign of a Stroke -------- Stick out Your Tongue
NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out his tongue.. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other , that
is also an indication of a stroke.
A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.
This is good info to remember and use.

Pre-Nuptial Agreement
A secretary for a foreign embassy was entertaining a wealthy foreign ambassador during lunch at a very expensive restaurant in uptown New York.
The ambassador was so enthralled by the beauty and presence of this secretary that he asked her to marry him. The secretary was startled, but remembered that her boss told her never to insult foreign dignitaries, so she decided to let him down easy.
"I'll only marry you under three conditions."
"Anything, anything," said the ambassador.
"First, you must buy me a 14-karat gold wedding band with a 72 carat diamond, along with a 28 inch studded matching necklace for our engagement."
Without hesitation, the ambassador picked up his cellular phone, called his personal accountant, told him the instructions, and said, "Yes, yes, I buy, I buy!"
The secretary thought that her first request was too easy, so she thought of a more difficult situation.
"Second, I want you to build me a 58-acre mansion in the richest part of the Poconos along with a 40 acre summer home in the sweetest vineyards of France."
The ambassador picked up his phone, called his personal broker in New York, then called another broker in France, and after his quick conversation, he said, "Yes, yes, I build, I build!"
The secretary was very startled, and knew she must think of a final request hat would be impossible to live up to.
"Finally," she said. "I'll only marry you if you have a 10 inch penis."
A sad face befell the ambassador, and he cupped his face in his hands.
After weeping in his native language for a few minutes, the ambassador lowly lifted his head and said, "Ok, ok, I cut, I cut!"
