masterwordsmith-unplugged: THE PERFECT MAN AND THE PERFECT WOMAN

THE PERFECT MAN AND THE PERFECT WOMAN

Posted by Unknown On Sunday, February 28, 2010 26 comments

There was a perfect man who met a perfect woman. After a perfect courtship, they had a perfect wedding. Their life together was, of course, perfect. One snowy, stormy Christmas Eve, this perfect couple was driving their perfect car along a winding road, when they noticed someone at the side of the roadside in distress. Being the perfect couple, they stopped to help. There stood Santa Claus with a huge bundle of toys. Not wanting to disappoint any children on the eve of Christmas, the perfect couple loaded Santa and his toys into their vehicle. Soon they were driving along delivering the toys. Unfortunately, the driving conditions deteriorated and the perfect couple and Santa Claus had an accident.

Only one of them survived the accident. Who was the survivor?

The perfect woman.

She's the only one that really existed in the first place.

Everyone knows there is no Santa Claus and there is no such thing as a perfect man...

Women, stop reading here.

So, if there is no perfect man and no Santa Claus, the perfect woman must have been driving. This explains why there was a car accident.

(By the way if you're a woman, and you're reading this...this brings up another point....women never listen either.......)

:-) Please leave a comment if you wish to share your thoughts. Thanks! Have a lovely day!

Selvi Your dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman and loose enough to show you're a lady.

Any comments?

Who made the comment? Was it from a news report?

I believe a woman should dress comfortably and decently. :-) She need not show or prove to or show anyone she is a woman - she does not have to because she is who she is :-).

What about you? What do you think?

Thanks for this clever question. Take care and have a lovely day.

QQ The place where we are now is of paramount importance. We must never avoid what we must face.

We must challenge our circumstances and steadily persevere. The path toward victory actually opens from where we stand.

Selvi Hi sis, exactly.

A woman need not show or prove to or show anyone she is a woman. However, I reserve my comments on modern ladies' dressing, haha!

Well, it's quoted by Joseph Laitin in Collier's.

It is vital that we know where we are in life - be it in our personal lives, at work or in fighting for our course. Coming face to face with destiny is not easy but surely courage, perseverance and strength of character is essential for such circumstances.

Then we can reap victory when we win the battle, right? :-)

Take care and may you inspire those around you to continue their fight and to persevere in all circumstances.

God bless! Have a nice day!

Anonymous I am one of the many victims of Ooi Boon Leong, the former director of MEMS TECHNOLOGY BERHAD who was convicted with his CFO, both who were convicted at the Sessions Court on 25th February.

The funny thing is that there was a Star Online article on the conviction, the same article NEVER made in to the Star proper !

There is a pattern here. In April 2009, the same 2 directors were reported be charged and reported
in the Star Online and amazing enough, it also was not published in the Star proper.

One wonders whether the editors at the Star were persuaded not to do so with an incentive. BTW, I had alerted Datuk Wong Chun Wai via his New Malaysia Blog but he chose
not to publish this alert of mine. Hmm.. Wong Chun Wai is a Penang Lang and so is OBL... Is there a connection ?

Please read the following Star Online article as follows :-
Former directors fined RM300,000 each for overstating revenue (Updated)
By M. MAGESWARI

mages@thestar.com.my

KUALA LUMPUR: Two former directors of a public-listed company were fined RM300,000 each by a Sessions Court here on Thursday after they admitted to overstating RM30mil in their investment holding company’s revenue.

Ooi Boon Leong, 49, was a director and an audit committee member of MEMS Technology Bhd while Tan Yeow Teck, 49, was its chief financial officer and an executive director.

In sentencing, Sessions Court judge Asmadi Hussin ordered each accused to pay his fine or serve two years in jail.

The two were said to have knowingly authorised the furnishing of a misleading statement to Bursa Malaysia Securities Bhd in Bukit Kewangan on Sept 27, 2007.

The misleading statement is contained in the report “MEMS Technology Berhad Condensed Consolidated Income Statements for the 12-month period ended July 31, 2007.”

Upon hearing their verdict, the two, who had resigned from their posts, were composed.

Pleading for leniency, their lawyer Francis Ng Aik Guan asked the court to consider that his clients had already been publicly reprimanded and fined by Bursa Malaysia for overlapping breaches pertaining to the same unaudited accounts for that financial year.

Ng said Ooi had been fined RM89,000 while Tan had been fined RM197,500 in October 2008.

He said both would be disqualified from holding directors’ positions upon their conviction, which would also affect their livelihood.

He said his clients were remorseful over their actions and had sincerely recorded their plea of guilt.

He asked the court to consider that his clients had contributed for the growth of the nation and to transfer of technology through their roles in the company.

In pressing for a deterrent sentence, prosecuting officer Shanti Geoffrey asked the court to consider public interest and the seriousness of the offence.

“Investors were misled with a statement issued to Bursa Malaysia on Sept 27, 2007, which was approved by both accused.

“In the false statement, out of RM73,416mil recorded for revenue, RM30,169mil worth of sales did not take place. The false sales comprised 41% of the overall revenue,” she said.

Geoffrey said investors were misled and suffered losses due to the false information, while both accused enjoyed revenue from their wrongful actions.

She said that Ooi was a substantial shareholder in MEMS Technology with over 38 million shares while Tan held 270,800 shares.

She said it was a planned crime where both accused had took about a year to generate and insert false sales in the accounts of its subsidiary company.

“Both are qualified accountants, they knew very well what they were doing,”she said, adding that elements of forgery and cheating were involved in committing the offence.

She said both accused had also failed to carry out their duty to shareholders and that their actions had affected the confidence of investors in the company.

Village Boy There is actually no need whatsoever for us to vacillate between elation and despair at each turn of events. For all we know, there is no such thing as a storm that will continue blowing and wreaking havoc without end. In the same way, there is no hardship that will continue forever.

We must have courage in the face of adversity.

A Arthur There was this young man who endowed a huge fortune from his heritage.

He wanted a perfect woman for a wife. So he went out to the world to seek this perfect woman.

After many years of searching he still had not find his perfect wife and returned home, old and gray.

His childhood friend, who had sired many children and now had many grandchildren, greeted him with enthusiasm and love.

"Hey after all these years of searching you mean you cannot find a perfect woman to be your wife?"

"Yes, I have found her:" the old man said.

"Then what happen?"

"What happened? Nothing happen. She was looking for the perfect man."

Adversity is the touchstone of true friendship.

It is when I went through the worst times of my life that I realized who were my true friends.

No matter how rough the storms of life, we are able to ride through if we have faith, self-confidence and peace of mind.

Worry only cripples while faith empowers!

Take care and God bless you always!

:-) May I ask who are you? Are you CS? :-)

Anyway, I love this post cos it is a firm reminder that no one is perfect in this world and I have to concede that many times, women (myself included) often fail to listen hehehe:-)....sometimes to their detriment.

And of course, it is a firm reminder that no matter how flawed are our spouses, we are also flawed ourselves so the important thing is not to find fault or to find the right partner BUT to BE the right partner!!!

Glad to know you are floating on marital bliss!!! God bless you and yours with many kids :-)...and then you will have no time for golf haha!!! Kidding...

Take care and please keep in touch.

Agree!!! Guys may wake up and find their spouse is not the one they married haha if she is the type to put war paint...

I always believe that make up is unnecessary because what matters is our inner beauty and the way we maintain what God has given us - our natural beauty via proper diet, exercise and the right attitude.

:-) I only use lipstick and a slight tinge of eyeshadow occasionally :-)....

Take care and thanks for the tongue-in-cheek warning! Do keep in touch, ya?

God bless you!

Anonymous As it is, outward appearances tend to be the focus of our attention. However, it's what's in a person's heart that matters.

The beauty within a person should be what shines throughout. Inner beauty should outweigh the outer beauty.

Outer beauty can fade and be taken away, but inner beauty grows stronger with each passing day.

What's on the outside shouldn't be more important than the inside. We should worry more about our heart and goodness, and not how our hair, clothes or makeup look.
