Since most of us has some form of term life insurance in some way, perhaps you may get this joke. Nahh.. you don’t have to be on a policy to get this one…

Larry’s barn burned down and his wife, Susan, called the insurance company. Susan told the insurance company, “We had that barn insured for fifty thousand and I want my money.” The agent replied, “Whoa there, just a minute, Susan. Insurance doesn’t work quite like that. We will ascertain the value of what was insured and provide you with a new one of comparable worth.” There was a long pause before Susan replied, “Then I’d like to cancel the policy on my husband.”

That’s a pretty good amount to fetch for your false teeth ey? I will never look at my dad’s false teeth differently from now on. At the current exchange rate that would be around Rm 75,584.42 on our local currency. Hey! Not bad for a false teeth! I could buy a diamond bling-bling decorated furnace filters with those kind of money. Not to mention a nice ‘little’ vacation to Hawaii perhaps?

A partial set of false teeth made for Sir Winston Churchill has been sold for £15,200 at an auction in Norfolk. The dentures, sold by Keys in Aylsham, had been expected to fetch a maximum of £5,000 at the sale on 29 July. The teeth were owned by the son of dental technician Derek Cudlipp who made them, but he decided to sell.

I love world music. Turkish, Middle Eastern music… I think they are awesome. Have you heard the tune to this song called Hava Nagila? Well based on what I found on Wiki:

“Hava Nagila” (lit. Let us rejoice) is a Hebrew folk song that has become a staple of band performers at Jewish weddings

I just love the tune. Our biblical characters must have been playing music that follows along the line of such notation huh?

A little History:

The melody was taken from a Ukrainian folk song from Bukovina.[1] The commonly used text was probably composed by Abraham Zevi (Zvi) Idelsohn[2][3] in 1918 to celebrate the British victory in Palestine during World War I as well as the Balfour Declaration.

No need for your regular dosage of Phentermine 37.5 yet. Cos these Hava Nagila videos will keep you going!

I will soon be parting ways with my beloved Yamaha E403 electronic keyboard. We have been together for more than 2 years I think. She does look new and shiny just as how she looks when I saw her the first time in that little showroom in Subang parade. She has helped me made songs like This is Kaamatan and Another Love Song to name a few.

Anyway change is good right? The reason I am selling off the Yamaha keyboard is so I could make my little ‘Home Studio’ a little more spacious by having a midi controller instead of an Electronic Keyboard. i would go for the M-Audio Axiom but money seems to be not interested in me right now. Damn I should have done more of those auto insurance reviews that I was offered a while ago.

Looks like my next best option is the M-Audio Keystation 61es model. I love you Yamaha E403. You are always here, right here in my heart and in my demo recordings in my hard drive somewhere.
