Elliott, a Mayor from a small town paid a visit to his old friend, Lance, who had become a reputable Mayor in Lancashire.

“Wow, what is the secret of your success?”, asked Mr. Elliott, amazed at his friend’s grand house, complete with maids and a sour looking butler.

Pointing out to the window that revealed a view of the town’s half constructed bridge, and said, “You see that bridge?”

“Yeah, what about it?”

His friend smiled, then meaningfully answered, “20 percents.”

Six months later, Mayor Lance received a letter inviting him to Elliott’s house for a dinner.

Intrigued, he visited his friend and was beyond shock to find a Porsche parked over a house even more luxurious than his.

During dinner, Lance couldn’t keep his curiosity any longer and asked, “So, pray tell, my friend, how do you manage to get this much wealth?”

Elliott put down his napkin and pointing over to the window overlooking an empty barren land, he asked, “You see that bridge?”

“What bridge?”, Lance answered, confused as ever.

Elliott smiled. He said, “100 percents.”

I love this joke. Never gets old

This is a respond to Ruthy’s tag =)

1. I’m such a moody person that obsessing over new dreams, hubbies (not a misspelling) and hobbies is my hobby.

2. Since one of every six babies born is Chinese (researchers’ words, not mine), I’ve become a semi expert in noticing a person’s striking physical resemblances to another. I’ll applaud myself whenever I spot on twins-separated-at-birth material.

3. What it takes to earn a death glare from me is strangers and mostly nosy mums whom I just met, gasping in disbelief, “Aww, you’re a Chinese? Wouldn’t have guessed” or just bluntly stating my lack of looking like one. Um, let’s just say between my fifth birthday and now, I’ve had plenty of glaring practices XD

4. Sometimes I live for the TV show LOST, my morning cup of tea and M.A.C foundation.

5. I don’t have a favorite color. Seriously, it’s like one of the most common questions that follows after ‘What’s your name?’ in questionnaires and I’m as indecisive as people whose favorite color is rainbow. Once, it was green because so many in my class said green, that my IQ would decidedly climb up 50 points higher. It didn’t. Instead, my friend frowned and asked, “Wasn’t your favorite, orange?”. Nervously, I said, “HAHA. Why, it was.” Trouble, trouble.

6. I secretly wonder where our iheartbadtz comes from. Random guesses: “Hmm.. Phillipines?”, or “no, don’t think it’s Spore” , and my first guess was the US. Forgot why thought so, but I had zilch clue and I was no Sherlock :P

7. I used to think that Hello Kitty was overrated.

Err, I tag… you? whoever reads this? Raein  maybe, if she hasn’t been tagged! XD
