By Raymond ⋅ March 1, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Found this cool, well-presented “How To” video on reading palms. I frequently found myself pausing or going back to certain parts (whilst checking my own palm), so I decided to list down the steps and provide some screen caps.

Percy Jackson & The Lightning Thief tells the story of Percy Jackson (Lerman), a regular kid struggling with dyslexia and ADHD. Soon enough, though, Percy discovers that his “disabilities” are really because he isn’t a regular kid – he is a demigod, borne of Poseidon, Greek god of the sea, and a mortal woman…

Bot applications are the latest Facebook fad plaguing our Walls. It all started with Crush Bot, an application telling you who are the top 5 people who may have a crush on you - male, female or both.

Old Jokes

By Raymond ⋅ May 8, 2009 ⋅ One comment

After reading a dozen jokes, some I haven’t really heard before, I didn’t find myself laughing as much as I hoped. Maybe it was the way they were written, but the jokes just felt so old, even the ones labeled “new”.
