SMALL DOGS SNAP MORE
———————–
PARIS – Small dogs, especially dachshunds, are likelier to attack strangers and other dogs compared with pit bulls, rottweilers and other macho breeds, a study published on Wednesday revealed.
Researchers in the United States surveyed owners of 30 breeds of dogs to assess how the pets responded to a variety of common stimuli and situations.
Dachshunds, chihuahuas and Jack Russell terriers topped the list for aggressiveness, while Brittany spaniels, greyhounds and whippets were the most docile.
The study appears in Applied Animal Behaviour Science, a journal published by the Dutch group Elsevier. AFP

And yes! Both Kenji and Kago topped the most aggressive list:P Alright, we ran out of dog food, tonight you boys go out and hunt for humans ok?:P
I’m sure they won’t bite strangers. But I can’t guarantee they won’t hump you!:D
I say, this is counterproductive counterREproductive:P
“XCGT Y R V CVVB “
That’s what my 10 month old nephew wrote to me on MSN 
Can’t wait to go there and play with him. That kid rocks!:D
Ok, please don’t take this too seriously… 😛 Not all chinese are like that…
During my trip to Manado, everytime we come up from a dive, other divers will be talking about how beautiful the sea creatures were. I, being the only chinese (at least for the Lembeh trip), will be thinking… what’s the best way to prepare them (black pepper crab topped with anemone, braised shark’s fins with crabmeat… tsk tsk. Can’t control it man… it’s an instinct:P
Among the list of things… sharks, turtles, pufferfish, octopus, sea urchins, crabs, lobsters, sea cucumbers, cuttlefish and many many more!! See what I mean? We’ve probably seen all that the ocean have to offer on our dining table rather than their natural habitat.
I used to think, if you don’t serve shark’s fin on your wedding dinner, I’ll give you something extra for the wedding:D Am still thinking about it.
Sunrise. That morning, I decided to wake up a wee bit earlier than others. Sun rises about 545am. Walked out into the cold waters and stayed there for about an hour. It’s probably the only morning I woke up that early.
Haven’t been doing panoramic stitching for a long long time:) This one’s decent:D
To alot of Singapore men my age, this is the most dreaded sms.
“You are required to attend RT”
I got this surprise message a couple of days back. Surprise because I passed mine every year during reservist. Puzzled, I called them up and realize I am listed as “failed” in their records. Here’s how the conversation with the Relations Officer (they’ve got really nice titles these days) went,
me: I’m calling to check why I was called up for RT since I passed mine last Dec.
RO: Let me check… oh, it says you failed…
me: which item?
RO: standing broad jump
me: what?
RO: hmmm… it says 22cm…
me: *ROFL* how do you jump 22cm?
RO: that’s right… hmmm… there must be a mistake somewhere…
So, the whole story is, there’s a data entry error at my unit. It was supposed to be 229cm, not 22cm. I saw that error before I out processed in Dec. The guys promised to change it. Apparently, that didn’t happen. 22cm!!! I must’ve broken the record for the shortest jump:)
That said, that reminds me, my $200 reward.
…from holiday hangover.
And the only way not to have a hangover… is to stay holidaying:D I am determined and I know I won’t let myself suffer!! I’m planning my next holiday!!:D Checked through my schedule… seems like I have a good chance of going off in Oct or Nov:D
Let me set up a smooth system first. Oh yes, can do some housekeeping… The room looks… erm, worse than it ever been:P
