This is a Perpetual Calendar that I have created for my personal use. You are welcome to use it if you know how.

I've been using this Calendar as far back as 2001 and am still using it as of 2010. I've intended to automate it but I haven't found the time to do it yet... I'll probably not be able to do it.

These image tables (shown below) explain what I'm trying to achieve.

Casio Watch ~ Model No. 1189 1219

(Bought on Sunday, 2010May23)

If you have the same watch, you can use the manual. If yours is a Casio (my favorite brand) you can try if these functions work for you as well coz sometimes there're more or less the same.

World Economy looking like a Ponzi scheme

.
I didn't understand most of this article (see attachment below) about the economy... BUT this paragraph by Nouriel Roubini says what I've always suspected.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Who will then bail out governments that bailed out private banks and financial institutions? Our global debt mechanics are looking increasingly like a Ponzi scheme.”
~ Nouriel Roubini,
Tuesday May 18, 2010, Page 12 of the TODAY Newspaper. Nouriel Roubini is a Professor of Economics at the Stern School of Business, Chairman of Roubini Global Economics, a global macroeconomic consultancy, & Co-author of ‘Crisis Economics: A Crash Course in the Future of Finance’

Romance?

Karl and Milly were lying in bed one night. Carl was falling asleep but Milly was in a romantic mood and wanted to talk. She said, “You used to hold my hand when we were courting.”
Wearily Karl reached across, held her hand for a second, and rolled over to try to fall asleep.
A few moments later she said, “Then you used to kiss me.”
Mildly irritated, he leaned across, gave her a peck on the cheek and settled back down to sleep.
Thirty seconds later she said, “Then you used to bite my neck.”
Angrily, he threw back the bed clothes and got out of bed.
“Where are you going?” she asked.
“To the bathroom to get my teeth,” he replied.

Hard of Hearing

An old man decided his old wife was getting hard of hearing. So he called her doctor to make an appointment to have her hearing checked. The doctor said he could see her in two weeks, and meanwhile there’s a simple, informal test the husband could do to give the doctor some idea of the dimensions of the problem.
“Here’s what you do. Start about 40 feet away from her, and speak in a normal conversational tone and see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a response.”
So that evening she’s in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he’s in the living room, and he says to himself, “I’m about 40 feet away, let’s see what happens.”
“Honey, what’s for supper?”
No response.
So he moves to the other end of the room, about 30 feet away. “Honey, what’s for supper?”
No response.
So he moves into the dining room, about 20 feet away. “Honey, what’s for supper?”
No response.
On to the kitchen door, only 10 feet away. “Honey, what’s for supper?”.
No response.
So he walks right up behind her. “Honey, what’s for supper?”
“For the fifth time, CHICKEN!”***

Adjusting to retirement

I sure have gotten old! I’ve had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes. I’m half blind, can’t hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia… Have poor circulation; hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can’t remember if I’m 89 or 98. Have lost all my friends. But, thank goodness, I still have my driver’s license.

Getting a Workout

I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape, so I got my doctor’s permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But By the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.

Three Elderly Sisters

Three sisters, ages 92, 94, and 96, live in a house together. One night the 96-year-old draws a bath. She puts one foot in and pauses. She yells down the stairs, “Was I getting in or out of the bath?”

The 94-year-old yells back, “I don’t know. I’ll come up and see.” She starts up the stairs and pauses. Then she yells out, “Was I going up the stairs or down?”
The 92-year-old is sitting at the kitchen table having tea and listening to her sisters. She shakes her head and says, “I sure hope I never get that forgetful.” She knocks on the wooden table for good luck. She then replies, “I’ll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who’s knocking at the door.”

the Senility Prayer

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do like, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

AND NOW GET READY FOR YOUR YEARLY DEMENTIA TEST

It's that time of year to take our annual senior citizen test.
Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles. As we grow older, it's important to keep mentally alert. If you don't use it, you lose it! Below is a very private way to gauge your loss or non-loss of intelligence.

Take the test presented here to determine if you're losing it or not. The spaces below are so you don't see the answers until you've made your answer.
OK, relax, clear your mind and begin.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. What do you put in a toaster?

Answer: 'bread.' If you said 'toast,' give up now and do something else.
Try not to hurt yourself. If you said, bread, go to Question 2.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2. Say 'silk ' five times. Now spell 'silk.' What do cows drink?

Answer: Cows drink water. If you said 'milk,' don't attempt the next question. Your brain is over-stressed and may even overheat. Content yourself with reading a more appropriate literature such as Auto World. However, if you said 'water', proceed to question 3.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from?

Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If your answer was 'green bricks,' why are you still reading these???

If you said 'glass,' go on to Question 4.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4. It's twenty years ago, and a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over Germany (If you will recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into West Germany and East Germany). Anyway, during the flight, two engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately the engine fails before he can do so and the plane fatally crashes smack in the middle of 'no man's land' between East Germany and West Germany. Where would you bury the survivors? East Germany, West Germany, or no man's land'?

Answer: You don't bury survivors.
If you said ANYTHING else, you're a dunce and you must stop. If you said, 'You don't bury survivors', proceed to the next question.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
5. Without using a calculator - You are driving a bus from London to Milford Haven in Wales. In London , 17 people get on the bus. In Reading, six people get off the bus and nine people get on. In Swenson, two people get off and four get on. In Cardiff , 11 people get off and 16 people get on. In Swansea , three people get off and five people get on. In Carmarthen, six people get off and three get on. You then arrive at Milford Haven.
What was the name of the bus driver?

Answer: Oh, for crying out loud!
Don't you remember your own name? It was YOU!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now pass this along to all your friends and pray they do better than you.
PS: 95% of people fail most of the questions!!

Some older people develop symptoms that look like dementia but are the result of taking medicines that don't work well together. You may be able to avoid this problem by making sure your doctor knows about all medicines-both prescription and over-the-counter-and all vitamin, herbal, and dietary supplements you take.

Lotsoluv and prayers for peace in your heart...olga

Happy 'You-Came-Into-the-World' Day

(Happy Birthday on the Seventh of May)

I like this poem so much I'm putting this on my BLOG. As in keeping with my normal practice, everyone is anonymous here. But for those who know, this person's identity will come through once you read the poem. The poem is so personalized... it's beautiful.

The author's identity is also obvious (again, for those who know) coz he always signs-off as AL... but then again, a lot of people sign-off that way too.

Enjoy the poem.

By-the-way, 'You-Came-Into-the-World' = 'Birthday'.... so you know.

Happy 'You-Came-Into-the-World' Day
by Anonymous Lee aka AL

Today is your day.
As you go about today,
Do leave the followings at bay;

Forget about your farms,
For they are not real farms.
Forget about your aquariums,
For they are not real aquariums.

Forget about your cities,
For they are not real cities.
Take a moment and think,
As you need to do your thing.

Go on for a long ride on your scoot.
And don’t give anyone a hoot.
Feel the wind rushing at your face,
As you burn the roads with haste.

Smell the air and also the pollutants.
For they are life’s invaluable irritants.
As you end today’s adventure,
Tomorrow will be another adventure.

Have a blessed birthday.
And keep all worries at bay.

"We think we know until 
we find out that we don't."
~ PGA, 2010May05, Wednesday, 1130hrs

I'm glad I had the opportunity to be with Dad on most of his hospital visits... would have been better if I had the car then... so stupid, I have never thought that I would ever have the need to drive a car. I have never thought that I will be able to own a car. I've learned that… sometimes... we think we know until we find out that we don't .

Bibimbap ~ Korean Cuisine

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bibimbap

Bibimbap (Korean pronunciation: [pibimpap]) is a popular Korean dish. The word literally means "mixed rice." Bibimbap is served as a bowl of warm white rice topped with namul (sautéed and seasoned vegetables) and gochujang (chili pepper paste). A raw or fried egg and sliced meat (usually beef) are common additions. The ingredients are stirred together thoroughly just before eating. It can be served either cold or hot.

Vegetables commonly used in bibimbap include julienned cucumber, zucchini, mu (daikon), mushrooms, doraji (bellflower root), and gim, as well as spinach, soybean sprouts, and gosari (bracken fern stems). Dubu (tofu), either plain or sautéed, or a leaf of lettuce may be added, or chicken or seafood may be substituted for beef. For visual appeal, the vegetables are often placed so that adjacent colors complement each other.

Dolsot Bibimbap ~ A variation of this dish, dolsot bibimbap (돌솥 비빔밥, "dolsot" meaning "stone pot"), is served in a very hot stone bowl in which a raw egg is cooked against the sides of the bowl. The bowl is so hot that anything that touches it sizzles for minutes. Before the rice is placed in the bowl, the bottom of the bowl is coated with sesame oil, making the layer of the rice touching the bowl golden brown and crispy.

Jeonju Bibimbap ~ The city of Jeonju, the capital of the North Jeolla Province of South Korea (located about two and a half hours' drive south of Seoul), is famous throughout the nation for its version of bibimbap, said to be based on a royal court dish.

Bibimbap is first mentioned in the Siuijeonseo, an anonymous cookbook from the late 19th century. There its name is given as 부븸밥 (bubuimbap). In Korean households, bibimbap is frequently prepared from steamed rice, vegetables, and meat.

As one of the most representative items of Korean cuisine, and because of its convenience of preparation, since the late 20th century bibimbap has been served as an airline meal on various airlines connecting to South Korea, including not only Korea-based airlines but also foreign airlines such as Lufthansa.

Hoedeopbap Bibimbap ~ A further variation of bibimbap, called hoedeopbap uses a variety of raw fish, such as tilapia, salmon, or tuna. The term hoe in the word means raw fish. The dish is popular along the coasts of Korea where fish are abundant.
