900 dollars on its way!

For those that aren’t aware. The Australia government (or the KRUDD government as ppl here call it, Kevin Rudd the prime minister) are giving out stimulus handouts to taxpayers.

It was initially challenge by some academic lawyer stating that it’s a gift and not part of the taxation measure for which the government had no constitutional powers.

That was rejected by the judges and now we should be expecting that from yesterday!

I will do my bit and spend some but really there are other bills that needs some attention first.

They are some mix reaction to this stimulus package. They are some handful that are sceptical and think we all will have to pay back somehow in the future. Be in raise in consumer product prices, or tax increases. Some blatantly disapprove this extra money and vow to donate to charity instead of spending on things.

Whatever the society feels, it boils down to that the Australian government is doing something about it. So many criticism on Kevin Rudd’s decision and planning but hey ATLEAST he’s doing something.

And it ends...

And yes.. thats exactly what I did. And it felt gooood.

And also I was nursing a ermmm headache yes that's it a bad bad headache ;)

So winter is coming around. And we gain an hour with this daylight saving ending. That means finally when i wake up at 7 am to get ready for work, it wont be pitch black!

However when i go running at 7pm, it will be pitch black.

And it will get cooold! Oh I hate the cold. No amount of blankets, winter wear or even body heat will get me all warm and toasty.

I hate the cold... brrrr

Facebook at work anyone?

Sneaky YouTube, Facebook peeks point to better office productivity

Intersting article! And being one of those said “WILB (workplaceInternet Leisure Browsing)” hehehe I couldn’t agree more!

Althought really I am only limited to reading new.com.au and blog online. Facebook, You tube the likes have all been banned including web mail like Gmail Yahoo Mail Hotmail.

Twitter? Not to sure, yet (or perhaps never) to jump into that band wagon. I don’t even know how rss feeder works! I’m already getting irked up on the new “twitter” style of facebook that keeps repeating stuff of a person updating their photo albums.

It’s true tho, I do need to zone out. Just a quick 1-2 minutes to flick onto a new tab on my interent explorer and read the latest goss/news/blogs on news.com.au. Then it’s back to my two computer screen of spreadsheet spreadsheet spreadsheets. Yes people, If you have not heard it enough, I shall say it again.

If Mr. Bill Gates didn’t’ invent excel, I wont have a job!

I would very much like to think it does add to my productivity! I s’pose my bosses has to vouch for me on that.

And I’m not one of those that go home and after dinner whtever, I jump to the computer and continue my adventures in the world wide web.

I instead chose my 42” plasma screen tv to destroy my already blurred vision.

So hands up who sneaks at work (or maybe it’s encourage at work) to do all the above. Use this article to justifying your action if you do get caught!
