When have money, keep dogs.
When without money, eat wild vegetables at home ;
When have money, eat same wild vegetables in fine restaurant.
When without money, ride bicycle;
When have money, ride exercise machine.
When without money, wish to get married;
When have money, wish to get divorced.
When without money, wife becomes secretary;
When have money, secretary becomes wife.
When without money, act like rich man;
When with money, act like poor man.
Says share market is bad but keeps speculating;
Says money is evil but keeps accumulating.
Says women are trouble-makers but keeps desiring them;
Says high positions are lonely but keeps wanting them.
Says smoking & drinking is bad but keeps partaking;
Says heaven is good but refused to go.
In the rural area, chicken calls man awake;
In the cities, man calls for chickens.
In the past, famous actresses will not sell their bodies;
Now, actresses will sell their bodies to become famous.
At one, YOU are the top priority,
At ten, academic excellence is the top priority,
At twenty, getting dates is the top priority,
At thirty, a good career is top priority,
At forty, keeping your body in shape is top priority,
At fifty, beating others at mahjong is top priority,
At sixty, keeping IT up is top priority,
At seventy, remembering something is top priority,
At eighty, moving around is top priority,
At ninety, knowing directions is top priority,
At 100, having your portrait on the wall is top priority!

The Art of "Chi Yah Hu" by Peter Da Costa
Peter said...
'Chi yah hu' - my mom commonly cooked this fish back in Taiping but hard to come by in other towns. I found out their Malay name is Ikan Kedera.
No 'chi yah hu' in the Bayan Baru market on Saturday but this morning, was happy to to finally come across them in the Sg Ara market.
RM6.00 for 500gm.
