Chinese and Japanese Tea and Heart Attack
This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal,
but about heart attacks . The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their
meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while
eating.
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold
water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will
slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will
break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It
will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to
cancer . It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart
attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense
pain in the jaw line.
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart
attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people
who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the
jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The
more we know, the better chance we could survive.
A cardiologist says if everyone who reads this message sends it to 10
people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.
Read this & Send to a friend. It could save a life. So, please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.

Don'ts after Meal-Advice for Longer Life
Forwarded by bayi.
It has been the habit of so many to smoke after eating. Now read this.

advice
It has been the habit of so many to smoke after eating. Now read this.
Don't smoke- Experiment from experts proves that smoking a cigarette after meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes (chances of cancer is higher).
Don't eat fruits immediately - Immediately eating fruits after meals will cause stomach to be bloated with air. Therefore take fruit 1-2 hr after meal or 1hr before meal.
Don't drink tea - Because tea leaves contain a high content of acid. This substance will cause the Protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest.
Don't loosen your belt - Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted & blocked.
Don't bathe - Bathing will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs & body thus the amount of blood around the stomach will therefore decrease. This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.
Don't walk about - People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live till 99. In actual fact this is not true. Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we intake.
Don't sleep immediately - The food we intake will not be able to digest properly. Thus will lead to gastric & infection in our intestine.

World's population is getting bigger and family planning awareness is a responsibility of the government.
Some newly married friends were visiting us when
the topic of children came up. The bride said she
wanted three children, while the young husband said
two would be enough for him.
They discussed this discrepancy for a few minutes until
the husband thought he'd put an end to things by
saying boldly, "After our second child, I'll just have a
vasectomy."
Without a moment's hesitation, the bride retorted,
"Well, I hope you'll love the third one as if it's your own."

When the overlook what really is the problem, they can not get the right solution.
A kangaroo named Joey kept escaping from his enclosure at the zoo. Knowing
that he could hop really high, the zoo officials built a six-foot fence.
However, Skippy was out of his enclosure the next morning, roaming around
the zoo.
A nine-foot fence was put up. But again Joey got out.
When the fence was twenty feet high, a camel in the next enclosure asked
Joey the kangaroo, "How much higher do you think they'll build it?"
Joey replied, "They could build it half a mile high, but unless somebody
locks the gate at night, I am going to keep getting out of my enclosure."

Strange Houses
Forwarded by bayi.
Do you find your house similar to these strange houses? I do. My grandparents house was similar to number seven.
1. House between two rocks. It looks more like a cathedral. What's with that ladder rope?
2. The Castle on a rock. Where's the entrance? Is this Rapunzel's tower?
3. I call this stairway house. I saw one like this in Jet Li's movie filmed in China.
In Tagaytay, you will find similar houses that are designed to follow the rolling terrain of the place.
4. House Hanging from a tree? No way would I be convinced to go inside that house. Ugh.
5. This house is earthquake safe.
6. The Titanic House. No need for centralized airconditioner.
7. The house by the sea.
8. The house in an island. Enjoy the ocean waves.
9. Is this a lighthouse?
10. A tree house for adults.
11. A house on a rock.

Job Interview
Forwarded by bayi.
The Fastest Thing ...
An office manager was given the task of hiring an individual to fill a job
opening. After sorting through a stack of resumes he found four people who
were equally qualified.
He decided to call the four in and ask them only one question.
Their answer would determine which of them would get the job.
The day came and as the four sat around the conference room table the
interviewer asked:
"What is the fastest thing you know of?"
Acknowledging the first man on his right, the man replied,
"A THOUGHT. It just pops into your head. There's no warning that it's on the
way; it's just there. A thought is the fastest thing I know of."
"That's very good!" replied the interviewer.
"And now you sir?" he asked the second man.
"Hmm....let me see. A blink!
It comes and goes and you don't know that it ever
happened.
A BLINK is the fastest thing I know of."
"Excellent!" said the interviewer. "The blink of an eye
... that's a very popular cliché for speed."
He then turned to the third man who was contemplating his reply.
"Well, out at my dad's ranch, you step out of the house
and on the wall there's a light switch. When you flip that switch,
way out across the pasture the light in the barn comes on in less than
an instant.
TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of."
The interviewer was very impressed with the third answer
and thought he had found his man. "It's hard to beat the speed of
light" he said.
Turning to the fourth and final man, the interviewer
posed the same question.
It's obvious to me that the fastest thing known is
DIARRHEA."
"WHAT!?" said the interviewer, stunned by the response.
"Oh I can explain." said the fourth man.
"You see the other day I wasn't feeling so good and I ran
for the bathroom.
But, before I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON THE LIGHT, I
had already sh*t in my pants!"

Hair Spray Restores Dead Hare
Forwarded by bayi

Easter Bunny
A man was blissfully driving along the highway, when he saw the Easter Bunny
hopping across the middle of the road. He swerved to avoid hitting the
Bunny, but unfortunately the rabbit jumped in front of his car and was hit.
The basket of eggs went flying all over the place.
The driver, being a sensitive man as well as an animal lover, pulled over to
the side of the road, and got out to see what had become of the Bunny
carrying the basket. Much to his dismay, the colorful Bunny was dead. The
driver felt guilty and began to cry.
A blonde driving down the same highway saw the man crying on the side of the
road and pulled over. She stepped out of her car and asked the man what was
wrong.
"I feel terrible," he explained, "I accidentally hit the Easter Bunny and
killed it. There may not be an Easter because of me. What should I do?"
The blonde told the man not to worry. She knew exactly what to do. She went
to her car trunk, and pulled out a spray can. She walked over to the limp,
dead Bunny, and sprayed the entire contents of the can onto the little furry
animal.
Miraculously the Easter Bunny came to back life, jumped up, picked up the
spilled eggs and candy, waved its paw at the two humans and hopped on down
the road. 50 yards away the Easter Bunny stopped, turned around, waved and
hopped on down the road another 50 yards, turned, waved, hopped another 50
yards and waved again!
The man was astonished. He said to the woman, "What in heaven's name is in
your spray can? What was it that you sprayed on the Easter Bunny?" The
blonde turned the can around so that the man could read the label. It said:
"Hair spray. Restores life to dead hair. Adds permanent wave."

WELCOMING IN THE NEIGHBOORHOOD
Forwarded by bayi

Indians
An Englishman went next door to welcome his new Indian neighbor.
He was shocked to see the man from India in his nice backyard chasing ten
chickens around like mad. "Must be an Indian custom," he thought to
himself.
Deciding he could put off the welcome till a later date, he went home.
The next day, he decided he was going to welcome the Indian man again.
When he looked through his window, he saw the Indian man urinate
into a cup and drink it." Must be an Indian custom," he thought to
himself. Deciding he could put off the welcome till tomorrow, he went on
with other stuff.
The third day, he was determined he had to welcome the Indian man. At
his gate, he saw the Indian man with his ear pressed against a cow's big
fat butt. He became angry and went up to the Indian man.
" I'm sorry sir, I want to wish you a welcome, but I cannot stand your
crazy Indian customs!" He yelled in the Indian man's face.
The Indian man looked confused and answered." Sorry sir, I think you are
mistaken. These are actually English customs.
I was told to be English you have to chase chicks, get piss-drunk, and
listen to bullshit."
