a beatiful sunday with the M&AA

The weekend started off innocently enough.

James and Jeremy are into their final leg of the chase to start their very own Japanese Restaurant Business; doubtless the name of the restaurant will not be that, but that's what it is: Japanese Restaurant Business, with capital letters, because the end of it is Business (with a capital "B"), and its aim is pure profit.

I had to meet James with my old jalopy, to obtain the documents from him. In the end, I had the documents, and had a blast of a time reading through them. The deal seems legitimate; the documents are in order. But some peculiarities need to be sorted out.

Things that piqued my interest this weekend:

1. Small Form Factor PC's.
2. MP3 capable Portable CD Players
3. Malay mythology

Just a memo to dear old me. The brain cells are dying and there's hardly a convenience store that sells replacement brain cells. Small, Regular, or Large? I'll take Extra Large, if that's available, thank you very much.

Friends make pact to make business go
Business not easy as statistics show
Friends get bunch of funny papers
Are told to sign and return them later
Friends send papers to the funny man
The lawyer friend who says "I can"
Lawyer friend looks and says "You can't"
He wonders if he'll be called a c*nt
When the business partners gather
And he tells them the serious matter.



On second thoughts, I've had a relatively "tame" Friday/Saturday. Wonder what happens all over the world on Friday? Non-stop partying all over the globe, that's what. The party starts from the land of the rising sun, and continues from coast to coast. Friday night is halfway through in Japan, it starts in India, and soon after blasts wide open in Europe, continues all the way across the Atlantic, and pretty soon it's Saturday night live back at Japan, and the whole process continues across the globe right to Sunday, whereby the East Asian chopstick culture countries start sobering up, from sake in Japan to soju in Korea, right to rice wine in China and so on, so forth. I wonder which drink it's hardest to sober up from?

It's comforting to know that peoples all over the globe also face Mondays... an affliction not uncommon ;-)
