不經不覺又到星期五， 日子過得真快！
朋友 A 君專程致電問候近況，還問近來到過什麼好地方、有什麼好介紹？
真抱歉，整個七月因種種原因，如非 必出席不可的約會，都會婉拒！
原本有兩個酒宴詳情，寫了一半也擱置了，Sorry！請容後再補回吧！
剛剛發現，老友記 V 仔反而很勤力，已把最近的幾個聚會放了上 Blog。

Yahoo-Blog 真不知所謂！！！
唔明點解 Yahoo-Blog 經常說 “找不到這篇網誌”？
但那篇網誌明明是已上載了！？
而且一些朋友的“回應”及“留言”經常無故地不見了！
好易比朋友誤會是我自己刪除的！
初時還以為是家中電腦出問題，但在公司的電腦也出現同樣現象！
Yahoo-Blog 請好好改良吧！
Beauty of Math!
1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98

Brilliant, isn't it?
And look at this symmetry:
1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help
answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
If:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
And:
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But:
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%
Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!
Have a nice day & God bless !!
Thanks Yy.
