The World's Longest Ferrari !!!


Believe it or not, the world's first-ever Ferrari stretch limo: a 23-foot 360 Modena with eight seats and the biggest electric gullwing doors have ever seen.
£200,000 was spent by Style Limousines in Manchester to modify this rear-engined Ferrari 360 Modena.
Those gullwing doors are nine-foot long and were designed by one of the teams responsible for the Mercedes SLR McLaren.


All the eight seats are made of carbon-fibre buckets, with five-point race harnesses - which really needed when the 3.6-litre V8 remains, with its 395bhp roars and accelerates the mega-Ferrari to 60mph in under six seconds.
This F360 stretch is not the only unique limousine in the Style fleet. It also includes a stretch Hummer painted bright pink, as well as other stretch Hummers, Range Rovers and Chrysler 300s.

The SkyWalk over Grand Canyon West is Now Open....

THE SKYWALK, is the latest tourist main attraction in Grand Canyon West. The cantilevered walkway, which is made its media debut Tuesday, is a mere 4,000 feet above the bottom of the canyon. It opens to the public on March 28, 2007.
It cost approximately $30 million to build over a couple of years.


The open-air skywalk extends 70 feet out from the rim of the canyon, where it's anchored deep in the rock landscape. It will be open from dawn to dusk, and the price of admission is $25 per person. As many as 120 people will be allowed on the bridge at any given time; each will have to wear special shoe covers to prevent slipping and scratching.


The skywalk and Grand Canyon West are owned and operated by the Hualapai tribe, which is hoping for an economic boost from the new landmark. The site is in Arizona, about 70 miles northwest of Kingman, and about 120 miles east of Las Vegas.


The U-shaped structure can safely withstand 100-mph winds from eight directions and an 8.0-magnitude earthquake within 50 miles.


Most people will go out onto the skywalk to look down. Here's an unexpected view, looking up from below the glass platform. The 2-inch-thick glass floor is a joint effort of industrial giant DuPont and manufacturer Saint Gobain.

Love Has No Border....

Please hug me tightly darling




Imperfections

An elderly Chinese woman had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole which she carried across her neck.

One of the pots had a crack in it while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water.

At the end of the long walks f rom the stream to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.

For a full two years this went on daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water.

Of course , the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments.

But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable that it could only do half of what it had been made to do.

After two years of what it perceived to be bitter failure, it spoke to the woman one day by the stream "I am ashamed of myself, because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house."

The old woman smiled, "Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the other pot's side?"

"That's because I have always known about your flaw, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back, you water them."

"For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table.

Without you being just t he way you are, there would not be this beauty to grace the house."

Each of us has our own unique flaw. But it's the cracks and flaws we each have that make our lives together so very interesting and rewarding.

You've just got to take each person for what they are and look for the good in them.

So, to all of my crackpot friends, have a great day and remember to smell the flowers on your side of the path!

SAJAK: ATUK MERDEKA...

Malay Poem:

Sajak ini dicipta oleh kartunis Ujang dan telah dideklemasikan di UKM pada
tahun 1992.

Atuk Merdeka

Cucuku,
Kau ingin menjadi apa bila dewasa nanti?

Atukku,
Aku ingin menjadi kayu.

Jika kau menjadi kayu,
Jadilah kayu golf,
Disebut kayu tetapi besi,
Diulit Dato', tauke dan menteri,
Jangan kau menjadi kayu tunggul.

Cucuku,
Kau ingin menjadi apa bila dewasa nanti?

Atukku,
Aku ingin menjadi pagar.

Jika kau menjadi pagar,
Jadilah pagar karan,
Dipicit suis power berjalan,
Dirempuh diusik, boleh pengsan,
Jangan kau jadi pagar makan padi.

Cucuku,
Kau ingin menjadi apa bila kau besar nanti?

Atukku,
Aku ingin menjadi mangkuk.

Jika kau menjadi mangkuk,
Jadilah mangkuk purba zaman batu,
Buruan ahli arkeologi setiap waktu,
Membawa bukti tamadun dan ilmu,
Jangan kau menjadi mangkuk hayun.

Cucuku,
Kau ingin menjadi apa bila kau dewasa nanti?

Atukku,
Aku ingin menjadi bintang.

Jika kau menjadi bintang,
Jadilah bintang di langit,
Tiada boleh ditukar wang ringgit,
Tidak boleh dijolok dikait,
Jangan kau menjadi bintang tiga.

Cucuku,
Kau ingin menjadi apa bila dewasa nanti?

Atukku,
Aku ingin menjadi seluar dalam.

Jika kau menjadi seluar dalam,
Jadilah seluar dalam Superman,
Sarung di luar nampak gentleman,
Tiada manusia memberi komen,
Jangan kau menjadi seluar dalam model playboy.

Cucuku,
Kau ingin menjadi apa bila dewasa nanti?

Atukku,
Aku ingin MERDEKA.

Jika kau ingin MERDEKA ,
Lupakan tentang perarakan di Dataran Merdeka,
Simpanlah budget kereta berhias dan pentas lintas hormat,
untuk membeli kayu,
untuk membeli pagar,
untuk membeli mangkuk,
untuk membeli bintang,
untuk membeli seluar dalam,
untuk membeli MERDEKA.

MERDEKA, MERDEKA, MERDEKA !!!
