| | Sub Transistor Radios are outdated | | i was looking at the cam as i chat with a friend. then i asked what is that on your back? he picked up something and showed me. i said "speakers", believing it was what i said, because it was near the computer. it turned out to be a radio transistor. i was thinking how come he still keeps an outdated kind of appliance? but he said it receives the sound section of tv, has fm receiver too from radio stations around the world and those from the local tv stations. it only uses 4 penlight batteries but can also work using a battery eliminator. then i thought, wow!! it is then very useful especially during times when there is no power like in storms or brownouts. it is a very wise decision then to have one of those.

Dr Fox recounts the tale of one doctor who had scribbled TTFO - an expletive expression roughly translated as "Told To Go Away" - on a patient's notes.He told BBC News Online: "This guy was asked by the judge what the acronym meant, and luckily for him he had the presence of mind to say: 'To take fluids... | |
| | i love cat | | There are people who hate cats. But for me, I do not know but I have a heart for cats. Just yesterday night on my way home with my mom, I heard a kitty crying. With the used of our penlight, I tried to spot and looked for it. Then when I saw it, i got the kitty, dirty and malnourished. I carry it and bring it at home.
The same thing, that is why I have lots of cat at home now. | |
