Steve Jobs - A Brilliant Man

By jewelminer | October 5, 2011

A great lost to the world and no I do not know Mr Jobs personally but I  know his work and am very familiar with it.  Funny one can feel so sad even when you don’t know him personally eh?  But yes - I’m sure his work impacted all of our lives in one way or another.  How has he impacted yours?

A Shirtless Tiger Woods

By jewelminer | September 20, 2010

I just happened to chance upon this picture of Tiger Woods on Vanity Fair and thought to myself - hey!  Woods don’t look as good under his shirt eh.  The man needs some serious working out - in my humble opinion.  Maybe some Rx6 for this sport icon might do him some good eh?  But seriously I expected a little more from him.  But this was taken before all the stories of his infidelity and mistresses came out.  Wonder what Woods was thinking when he did this shot eh?   But having said all that - he still looks good - from his neck up -  but yes - some fat burner may be good for Woods in some areas. What do you think?

Cube PC For The Rich Only

By jewelminer | August 6, 2009

While everyone can afford walk in tubs these cube PCs are definitely meant for the filthy rich.  Yes ..!! at freaking $26K  I can buy a car for it.. and even though it said it starts at $7820 .. it is just crazy to spend so much on these PC for the show of it.  Anyhow.. who can afford something like that.. except maybe Michael Jackson..  but even he don’t know how to use the PC i would think.. hahhaha!! ok . ok.. enough of making fun of the dead. Rest in peace .. MJ..!

PCs can further be customized as per individual preferences. The priciest of the range is the design09 Tricolor Gold with a price tag of $32,300 (featured bottom left) followed by design07 Tricolor Gold, 8 Signity for $26,400. The prices start from $7,820. But my personal favorites are the design06 with a star-studded effect and the design08 with a gold leaf effect.

Maury Show

By jewelminer | February 7, 2009

For those in the US or even in Canada, if you haven’t seen the Maury show then you don’t know what you are missing.  The wife who came from Asia was watching this show so much and knows all about paternity test and wonder how can some woman not know who the father of the kid was and worst, not just a comparison for 2 men .. but sometimes up to 5.  Want a good laugh ..?? check out the Maury show, it on everyday.. on cable at all times of the day.

John Chow Pimping Russian Brides

By jewelminer | January 25, 2009

The wife follows John Chows blog and was disappointed that this pro-blogger was pimping Russian brides on his site for a few buck, well maybe more than a few bucks of course.  But still, she thinks it is beneath him - so her hero image of John Chow is damaged.  The wife thinks that if John Chow were to go for good causes like those of Mesothelioma or to help those with it would had been a better way to sell oneself.   But now the wife knows better, John Chow can be bought for a price.  Tsk, Tsk!

Dot Com Pho Raised $12K For Union Gospel Mission

By jewelminer | December 15, 2008

Pro blogger - John Chow raised $12K to feed thousands of people at the Union Gospel Mission .. where he grew up around that neighbourhood.  And it all started with his first pledge of $5K himself, he then challenged his readers to match his donation and guess what there are lots of generous people out there or just that John Chow with his robotic looks ( i meant it in a nice way)  is quite appealing.

Well, how many people can raise $12K right..?? but John Chow did.. !! did anyone else .??  nope.. not at all.  Or other self professed pro-bloggers.  For that .. I salute you John Chow.

Bill Gates & Jerry Seinfield Advertisement

By jewelminer | December 11, 2008

Uhhh.. do you? “I sure not!” Like my 4.5 yrs old would say. Well I’ve heard about this advert from another geek blog a few weeks ago and I was really looking forward to seeing it. After all I do like Bill Gates despite the Nazi-like manner of him handling the entire OS world. But still, he is a decent fella and I used to love watching Sienfeld every week. But I don’t get the advert. I see the curios but that’s about it, maybe I’m a bit dense today or just low on caffeine. Pray someone tell me?
