Proof: Girls are Evils
1. We state that girls require time and money, so
Girls = Time * Money
2. We all know "time is money", so
Time = Money
3. So,
Girls = Money * Money
4. Money is the root of all evils.
Money = square root "evil"
Evil = Money * Money
5. From #3. and #4
Girl = Evil

How a marriage works
A newlywed couple had only been married for two weeks. Philip, the husband, although very much in love, couldn't wait to go out on the town and party with his old buddies.
So, he said to his new wife, 'Honey, I'll be right back.'
'Where are you going, honey bunch?' asked the wife.
'I'm going to the bar, pretty face. I'm going to have a beer.'
The wife said, 'You want a beer, my love?'
She went and opened the door to the refrigerator and showed him 25 different kinds of beer brands from 12 different countries: Germany , Holland , Japan ,
India , etc.
The husband didn't know what to do, and the only thing that he could think of saying was, 'Yes, lollypop...but at the bar...you know...they have frozen glasses...'
He didn't get to finish the sentence, because the wife interrupted him by saying,
'You want a frozen glass, puppy face?'
She took a huge beer mug out of the freezer, so frozen that she was getting chills just holding it.
The husband, looking a bit pale, said, 'Yes, tootsie roll, but at the Bar they have those hors d'oeuvres that are really delicious... I won't be long, I'll be right back. I promise. OK?'
You want hors d'oeuvres, poochi pooh?' She opened the oven and took out 5 dishes of different hors d'oeuvres: chicken wings, pigs in blankets, mushroom caps, pork strips, etc.
'But my sweet honey... At the bar... You know...there's swearing, dirty words and all that...'
'You want dirty words, Dickhead? Drink your f***ing beer in your Goddamn frozen mug and eat your motherf***ing snacks, because you are Married now, and you aren't f*** ing going anywhere! Got it, A**hole?'
So, he stayed home............
........and, they lived happily ever after...
Now, isn't that a sweet story?
Happy Anniversery?
A married couple in their early 60's were celebrating their 40th Wedding Anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant.....
Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, "For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish."
The wife answered, "Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband." The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.
The husband thought for a moment: "Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than I."
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish.
So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!....the husband became 93 years old. The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful b***ds should remember fairies are female.....

The rabbi is leaving
was planning to leave for a larger congregation that would pay him
more.
There is a hush within the congregation. No one wants him to leave,
because he is so popular.
Fred Shapiro, who owns several car dealerships in Newton and Brookline , stands up and proclaims "If the rabbi stays, I will provide him with a new Cadillac every year, and his wife with a Honda mini-van, to transport their children!"
The congregation sighs in appreciation and applauds.
Saul Cohen, a successful businessman and lawyer, stands and says,
"If the rabbi will stay on here, I'll personally double his salary, and
establish a foundation to guarantee a free college education for his
children!"
More sighs and loud applause.
Estelle Rubin, age 88, stands and announces with a smile, "If the
rabbi stays, I will give him sex!"
There is total silence.
The rabbi, blushing, asks her: "Mrs. Rubin, you're a wonderful and holy
lady. Whatever possessed you to say that?"
Estelle's 90-year old husband, Abe, is now trying to hide, holding his
forehead with the palm of his hand, and shaking his head from side to
side, while his wife replied "Well, I just asked my husband how we
could help, and he said: "Fuck him."
心絞痛徵兆………………..
50歲的陳媽媽是家庭主婦,身材很標準、看起來很年輕,除了有高血壓外,並沒有其他疾病。而且她非常注重飲食養生,不菸、不酒,每天都有運動的習慣。
但 是,最近陳媽媽卻發現,早上慢跑時牙齦會痛,假日和先生去爬山,沒有多久,牙齦也會痛,只好提早回家休息。先生勸她去看牙科,可是陳媽媽從小就怕牙醫,所 以,當她去看她的家庭醫師時,順道告訴醫師最近發生的這些情形。沒想到醫師很謹慎告訴她:「趕快去看心臟專科醫師,請醫師幫您做詳細的檢查。」
陳媽媽回家後告訴先生,陳先生半信半疑說:「牙痛怎麼會看心臟科呢?」陳媽媽說:「但是醫師是很嚴肅地建議我趕快去看耶!不是開玩笑喔!」隔天夫妻倆一起到心臟科門診求診。
醫師聽完陳媽媽的敘述後,告訴她:「陳太太,我建議您住院安排做心導管檢查,您的牙齦痛應該是『心絞痛引起的反射性疼痛』。」
經過心導管檢查果然發現,陳媽媽的心臟有3條血管阻塞,而且還有多處阻塞的情形,因此醫師建議陳媽媽接受心臟冠狀動脈血管繞道手術;她在手術後,恢復良好。
大多數人對「心絞痛」症狀的認識是:胸悶、胸前劇痛、盜冷汗。其實,心絞痛的症狀還有:手麻、肩胛骨(後肩膀)痛、下巴(或牙齦)痛、麻,而這些症狀都稱為反射性疼痛。
容易罹患心血管疾病的危險因子除了高血壓、高血脂、糖尿病、抽菸、肥胖者外,年齡(40歲以上)、停經後婦女、有家族史者,亦都是罹患心血管疾病的高危險群。
(作者為行政院衛生署台中醫院護理師)
關於心臟病發作
除左胳膊痛苦以外.心臟病發作會有其他症狀:如下巴會劇痛,以及噁心和盜汗,然而這些症狀也許並不常常發生。
注意:心臟病發作期間,可能不會有胸口的痛苦。多數人(大約60%)在他們的睡眠期間心臟病發作,因而沒有醒來。 然而,胸口痛也許會讓您從您的熟睡中醒來。 如果這樣,立刻咬碎二阿斯匹靈在您的嘴中並且與水吞下他們。
之後,給鄰居或居住非常近的家庭成員打電話 -說; " 心臟病發作! 已吞了2顆阿斯匹靈。"
然後坐在前門附近的椅子或沙發上,並且等待人們的到來~絕不能再躺下來~
心臟科醫師聲明,如果每個人,在收到這電子郵件以後,送給10個人,大概會有一個人的生命能被保存!
Western vs Chinese medicine
A week after arriving back home in Sydney , he woke one morning to find his penis covered with purple spots. Horrified, he immediately went to see a doctor.
The doctor, never having seen anything like this before, ordered some tests and told the man to return in two days for the results. The man returned a couple of days later and the doctor said, 'I've got bad news for you - you've contracted Mongolian VD. It's very rare and almost unheard of here. We know very little about it.'
The man looked a little perplexed and said: 'Well, give me a shot or something and fix me up, Doc.'
The doctor answered: 'I'm sorry, there's no known cure. We're going to have to amputate your penis.'
The man screamed in horror, 'Absolutely not! I want a second opinion.'
The doctor replied: 'Well, it's your choice. Go ahead if you want, but surgery is your only option.'
The next day the man found a Chinese doctor, figuring that he'd know more about the disease. The Chinese doctor examined his penis and proclaimed, 'Ah, yes, Mongolian VD. Very rare disease.'
The guy said to the doctor, 'Yeah, yeah, I already know that but what can we do? My Australian doctor wants to operate and amputate my penis!'
The Chinese doctor shook his head and laughed. 'Stupid Australian doctor, always want to operate.. Make more money that way. No need to operate!'
'Oh, Thank God!' the man replied.
'Yes,' says the Chinese doctor, 'You no worry! Wait two weeks. Fall off by itself!'

Talking about cholesterol and old age
-----
Health, cholesterol, exercise etc:
Thanks for your various kind suggestions and advice.
1. Irene: Many friends tell me I should eat麥皮. I’m quite lazy and try to avoid cooking and washing dishes. So I seldom eat麥皮, until recently.
I come across Quaker Instant Oatmeals – 10 packets per box for less than $3. I buy different mixes. I’m now starting having instant 麥皮, perhaps about 4-5 times a week. I’ll follow Irene’s advice and buy some Lecithin capsules/granules in the next few days.
2. One thing bad about me is whenever I watch TV ads about food, I’ll start searching for yuimmies and start eating. Bad, Bad, Bad! But I’m afraid I can’t control myself. Sometimes when I go out to eat, I’ll ask my friends to give me a kick if I start eating too much.
3. Like Tony, junk food usually ends up inside my tummy. It really takes great effort to control my eating habit. I’m trying…
4. Ding: Thanks for your detailed explanation and suggestion about Welchol. When I see my doctors, I ask them. Very true about taking care of the pain first before exercising.
When I was at the cardiac rehab center a few months ago, I could do walking/treadmilling for at least 45 minutes 4 to 5 times a week. Then because of the pain, my exercises were reduced to 2-3 minutes 1 to 2 times weekly. Now I can do treadmilling for about 25 minutes maybe 3 times a week.
5. Tony: You’re right about over-exercising. This is one of my weak points. Yes, the clinic receptionist always insists that I fast for the blood test and the stress test. With my recent resumption of exercising,
I should have no problem with the stress test, but I really don’t know about the blood test since I’m not taking lipiptor.
(By that way, my cardiologist was extremely angry when I asked him many months ago whether I could stop taking lipitor. He said I may die even if I don’t take it for one day.) From time to time, I eat bread that contains 10 grains with peanut butter and/or Becel omega 3 plus margarine. I’ll visit your website again tomorrow.
Thanks again, all, for your various suggestions and advice.

Have you been eating 麥皮 (need 1 cup, dry) every day and Lecithin 黃豆卵磷脂?, (in the formof granules or capsules), they’re suppose to be able to bring down the cholesterols.
Irene also wrote:
One way of stopping yourself eating your favorite junks is to stare at them and imagine something bad that look similar to that item. (sounds like Harry Potter films ). A guy from Australia used this method (+ exercise of course) to loose over 50 kg. and is making heaps of money now by promoting this method. Can’t remember his name off-hand.

I stared at my junk food (similar to stare at the sheep movie), but somehow they found their way into my month.
Ding wrote:
I am only trying to help from my own experience and research, not trying to pretend to be omnipotent.
Please ask your doctor about a drug called Welchol. It is not a statin (as in Lipitor, Crestor). Statins gave you the muscle problem. Welchol does not work on everyone but if it works on you, you are saved.
Statin's direct link to this muscle pain and damage has not been found but scientist found out it turned on a gene, the atrogin-1. This gene happens to be found active in cancer and AIDS patients at the beginning stages of the breakdown of their muscle. So far scientist are not sure if statins turn on the gene.
They only found this gene on. This is a good clue to explain why the muscle pain in people taking these statin drugs. Welchor does not get absorbed by the body. What it does is to carry away the bile acids from your blood. In order to replenish this useful acid, your liver will have to manufacture more.
The liver uses cholesterol to manufacture bile acid therefore it has to collect a lot of them back from your blood. This lowers your blood cholesterol. Welchor gets out of your system with the bile acid. Your stool becomes sticky and you will fart a lot (and awful too) but that will stop.
I know because I used to have high cholesterol and I took Lipitor. I had so much pain that I couldn't even strap my 二胡 on my shoulder and walk to my student's home which was three blocks. I couldn't walk freely. I switched to Welchor and I was fine. My cholesterol dropped and kept dropping.
I did a lot of research on this. Then with my muscle being fine I started to jog and practice my martial art again. Two years later, I am all healthy and I reduced my Welchor to half, then to 1/4 and now none.
My point is, you must take care of your pain first otherwise there is no way for you to do any exercise.
Tony wrote:
John, well said. I was about to give the same advice, but you took my words out of my mouth. Here are some other hints.
* As John said, strenuous exercise is no good. I had a doctor friend died of heart attack when playing badminton with his son several years ago. He was my age.
* You really need to fast before the tricel. test. Better to have a light dinner and take the test in the morning with only water.
* It is dangerous to stop Lipito. The doctor may have a good reason.
* Try a diet of 5 grains.
* There are several good suggestion in my blog. Need to have a post to summarize all health hints when I have time.
