A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest. A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself and doesn't feel even the least bit weird shutting your 'beer/Pepsi drawer' with her foot!
A simple friend has never seen you cry. A real friend shoulder is soggy from your tears..
A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first names. A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book.
A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party. A real friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean.
A simple friend hates it when you call after they've gone to bed. A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.
A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems. A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.
A simple friend wonders about your romantic history. A real friend could blackmail you with it!
A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument. A real friend calls you after you had a fight.
A simple friend expects you to always be there for them. A real friend expects to always be there for you!
Pass this on to anyone you care about......if you get it back you have no beginning, no end.
It keeps us together, like our Circle of Friends. Today I pass this on to you. Pass it on to someone who is a friend to you..
INSTANTLY WHEN YOU RECEIVE THIS LETTER, YOU'RE REQUESTED TO SEND IT TO AT LEAST 10 PEOPLE, INCLUDING THE PERSON WHO SENT IT TO YOU.
When you are down to nothing ... God is up to something.
'Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile. '

Subjects for a date
A boy is about to go on his first date, and is nervous about what to talk about.
He asks his father for advice.The father replies: "My son, there are three subjects that always work. These are food, family, and philosophy."
The boy picks up his date and they go to a soda fountain. Ice cream sodas in front of them, they stare at each other for a long time, as the boy's nervousness builds.He remembers his father's advice, and chooses the first topic.
He asks the girl: "Do you like spinach?" She says "No," and the silence returns.
After a few more uncomfortable minutes, the boy thinks of his father's suggestion and turns to the second item on the list. He asks, "Do you have a brother?"
Again, the girl says "No" and there is silence once again.
The boy then plays his last card.
He thinks of his father's advice and asks the girl the following question: "If you had a brother, would he like spinach?"

SHOCKing Torchlight?
I just thought to let know what my doctor told me recently. I don't
think she was lying and neither am I, so please pass this on to your
friends. Her clinic is in SS2 and you know how congested that place is.
One morning a few months ago in broad daylight, a girl was getting into
her car when a few men approached her with what looked like a torchlight.
Quite harmless looking. They pressed the 'torchlight' into her back and
immediately she went limp and very pale. So she wouldn't be able to
fight back, they slashed her thigh with a parang and sped away in her car.
There were many people around and they quickly took her to the nearest
clinic which was my doctor's clinic. There were two doctors at that time
and they managed to stitch up her wound but the girl remained
pulse-less and still pale as paper. No pulse, no BP (blood pressure). Just
like
dead.
My doctors were confused as to how one wound on the thigh made the girl
almost like dead? They managed to revive her and save her life.
After some checking around, the doctors found out what actually
happened was that the girl was made unconscious not by a torchlight but
actually
a high voltage weapon. I forgot how many watts she mentioned. 1000?
Anyway, it was high enough to kill a person by electrocution.
It seems this weapon is from China. It's not rampant yet in Malaysia,
but with this thing, a person can rob, rape, kill, kidnap, and practically
do anything to you. My doctor said that if the girl weren't taken to the
clinic immediately she would have died because there was no pulse on
her.
So please just beware of your surroundings, if anybody is lurking around
with a torchlight-thingy and approaches you, just scream or run away.
Better to be embarrassed than ZAPPED and fried, right?
Take care.

Moving Beer
Mary was asleep in bed when her husband, Patrick, crashed through the front door at 3 am waking her up. He staggered through the hallway and tried to get up the stairs.
'What are you doing?' Mary shouted.
Patrick replied, 'I'm trying to get this gallon of beer up the stairs.'
'Leave it down there, Patrick', Mary bellowed. 'I can't, 'Patrick replied, 'I've drunk it.'
