Body of Lies

After my last post last month when this blog was not ranked, I am happily shocked to discover that it is now a PR 3! And that's not a body of lies. And that I obviously do know what I am doing. ;)

And speaking of body of lies; I received this in the email today with regards to body statistics:-

It takes your food seven seconds to get from your mouth to your stomach.
One human hair can support 3 kg (6 lb).
The average man's penis is three times the length of his thumb.
Human thighbones are stronger than concrete.
A woman's heart beats faster than a man's.
There are about one trillion bacteria on each of your feet.
Women blink twice as often as men.
The average person's skin weighs twice as much as the brain.
Your body uses 300 muscles to balance itself when you are standing still.
If saliva cannot dissolve something, you cannot taste it.
Women reading this will be finished now.

Men who read this are probably still busy checking their thumbs.

Dead or Alive

Flower buds (like the one above in our garden) takes time to blossom. So does indexing of one's website by Google. But there are steps one can take to help speed this process up a little.

The page rank and the indexing of this old inactive blog has "fallen off" the radar of Google's indexing in their last page ranking exercise and it is now back to zero! Which though unfortunate, if I cared about the PR and I'm not as this blog is not monetized; gives me an opportunity to try to see how fast I can get it indexed again. And why is it so important to get your web site and pages indexed? If not then you'll never be found! So I'd started to make some comments on other blogs to get some backlinks and also submitted to a few free "engines".

To help my fellow classmates along (who would be treading the same path soon enough with their new websites or blogs) I have included one of them on the right sidebar (click on the Free Web Submission button) for their convenient usage. And since Google loves fresh content (everything fresh is nice lah!) updating your blog or website often with fresh contents helps. That's what I am doing here. So let's see if I can resuscitate this dead old blog back to life!

Trust this is of some help

BTW - The use of the title of this post - "Dead or Alive" is according to WordTracker (free version) is a keyword with over a thousand searches a day. Whatever.

Going Green?

This I thought, would be a "dead" blog now that I'm blogging using WordPress @ www.fh2o.kuchingkayak.com; but all of a sudden some of my fellow "classmates" at Derrick's Internet Business Course have started a blog at "Kuching Online Business" - so here I am going green by recycling one of my old blogs so that I can use my blogger's ID to post some comments there.

So if anyone of you guys are directed here from "Kuching Online Business" - here's a nice BIG warm welcome here!

And to those newbies trying their hand at blogging for the very first time; Blogger is an excellent platform to begin which I did back in 2005 when I basically stumbled upon it, fumbled with it and now I am completely at home with it! Piece of cake really. Just go ahead and give it a try as nothing's going to break really! Good luck and best wishes.

Fiji Dreaming

I was in Fiji from the 13th February 2008 to 19th February 2008 on a business trip. It's one of the most beautiful places that I'd visited and with over 300 islands set in crystal clear waters with palm fringed white sandy beaches, lagoons, coral reefs and idyllic places to stay - I think it justify the description of 'paradise'.

As you can imagine, I'd taken lots of photos on this trip; however this of the Fijian sunset taken from a boat on my last day there is my favourite and it goes with my still dreamy mood of Fiji. I hope you like it as much as I do.

Happy Chinese New Year 2008

Time flies and rats! It's the Year of the Rat this year!
Here's Wishing You a Very Bountiful 2008.

On Mountain Bike & Feeling Young

I bought a mountain bike and I took her out for a ride this evening - feeling like an excited 5 year old instead of the 51 year old shell that I'm wearing.

Darn!

Long Day

Tuesday sunset in Kuching

It's only Tuesday and I trust that the rest of the week would not be as long as the one I had today ...
