Hello Aphrodisiacs,
Happy 2006 to you all. Had a great X-mas and New Year's Eve party.
Aphrodite is really good and pumping. Thanks for the support people. This year
we got lot of sporting events coming up. Superbowl, the winter Olympics, 6
nation and other Rugby games, Soccer world cup and soon the AFL should start.
Also, a lot of cricket matches are happening.
We have renovated, the used to be wine bar, into a full-on
Island sports bar. Have already installed a 42 inch plasma TV and soon we will
be getting at least 2 more. Also soon, we will be changing from Kabelvision to
Digital 1. Added more tables and chairs, changed the lighted floor, changed the
carpet, repainted the walls and ceiling, installed 50 lockers for personal pool
sticks. Changing the pool table cloths next week and its a new club again!
Retraining the staff now and off we go again....
The only thing is, it is getting a bit expensive living in Jakarta. The
increase in fuel price and electric has increased everything else. I haven't
really been clubbing. Been a good boy for more that two months now and it
worries me. Getting older?? Hope that's not the reason. Anyway, going to
Singapore this weekend for my Dad's 70th. Will be there from Saturday, February
4 till Wednesday February 8th. I would like to catch-up with those living there.
Please sms me at +62811955124.

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked
the Director what the
criterion was which defined whether or not a patient
should be institutionalized.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then
we offer a teaspoon,
a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or
her to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person
would use the bucket
because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
No said the Director, "A normal person would just pull
the plug.......... Do you want a room with or without a view?"

There once was a powerful Japanese emperor who needed a new
chief Samurai. So, he sent out a declaration throughout the entire
known world that he was searching for a chief.
A year passed, and only three people applied for the very demanding
position: a Japanese samurai, a Chinese samurai, and a Jewish samurai.
The emperor asked the Japanese samurai to come in and demonstrate why he should be the chief samurai. The Japanese samurai opened a matchbox, and out popped a bumblebee. Whoosh! went his sword. The bumblebee dropped dead, chopped in half. The emperor exclaimed, "That is very impressive!"
The emperor then issued the same challenge to the Chinese samurai to come
in and demonstrate why he should be chosen. The Chinese samurai also opened a
matchbox and out buzzed a fly. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! The fly dropped
dead, chopped into four small pieces. The emperor exclaimed, "That is
very impressive!"
Now the emperor turned to the Jewish samurai, and
asked him to demonstrate why he should be the chief samurai. The Jewish Samurai
opened a matchbox and out flew a gnat. His flashing sword went Whoosh! But the
gnat was still alive and flying around. The emperor, obviously disappointed,
said, "Very ambitious, but why is that gnat not dead?" The Jewish Samurai just
smiled and said, "Circumcision is not meant to kill."
======================================
A very distinguished lady was on a plane arriving from
Switzerland. She found herself seated next to a nice
priest whom she asked: "Excuse me Father, could I ask
a favor?"
"Of course my child, What can I do for you?"
"Here is the problem, I bought myself a new
sophisticated hair remover gadget for which I paid an
enormous sum of money. I have really gone over the
declaration limits and I am worried that they will
confiscate it at customs. Do you think you could hide
it under your cassock?"
"Of course I could, my child, but you must realize
that I cannot lie."
"You have such an honest face Father, I am sure they
will not ask you any questions", and she gave him the
'hair remover'.
The aircraft arrived at its destination. When the
priest presented himself to customs he was asked,
"Father, do you have anything to declare?
"From the top of my head to my sash, I have nothing to
declare, my son", he replied.
Finding this reply strange, the customs officer asked,
"And from the sash down, what do you have?"
The priest replied, "I have there a marvelous little
instrument destined for use by women, but which has
never been used."
Breaking out in laughter, the customs officer said,"Go
ahead Father."

CORPORATE LESSON
A junior manager, a senior manager and their boss are on their
way to
a meeting. On their way through a park, they come across a
wonder
lamp. They rub the lamp and a ghost appears.
The ghost says,
"Normally, one is granted three wishes but as you are
three, I will allow one
wish each"
So the eager senior manager shouted, I want the first wish. I
want to
be in the Bahamas, on a fast boat and have no worries. "Pfufffff,
and
he was gone.
Now the junior ! manager could not keep quiet and
shouted "I want to be
in Florida with beautiful girls, plenty of food and
cocktails.
"Pfufffff, and he was also gone.
The boss calmly said, "I
want these two idiots back in the office
after lunch ".
MORAL OF THE
STORY:
Always allow the boss to
speak first
CORPORATE LESSON
There were these 4 guys, a Russian, a
German, an American and a
French, who found this small genie
bottle.
When they rubbed the bottle, a genie appeared. Thankful that the
4
guys had released him out of the bottle, he said, "Next to you all are
4 swimming pools, I will give each of you a wish. When you run
towards
the pool and jump, you shout what you want the pool of water
to
become, and your wish will come true."
The French wanted to start
first. He ran towards the pool, jumped and
shouted WINE". The pool
immediately changed into a pool of wine. The
Frenchman was so happy swimming
and drinking from the pool.
Next is the Russian's turn, he did the same
and shouted, "VODKA" and
immersed himself into a pool of vodka.
The
German was next and he jumped and shouted, "BEER". He was so
contented with
His beer pool.
The last is the American. He was running towards the pool
when
suddenly he steps on a banana peel. He slipped towards the pool
and
shouted, "SHIT!!!!!!!........."
MORAL OF THE STORY:
Mind your language, you never know what it
will Land you in.
CORPORATE
LESSON
A crow was sitting on a tree,
doing no! thing all day.
A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, "Can
I also sit like you
and do nothing all day long?" The crow answered: "Sure,
why not."
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow, and rested.
All of a sudden a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate
it.
MORAL OF THE STORY:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very
high up.

| The Burned Ears | |
| A guy burned two
ears... so they were asking him at the hospital how it happened.
He said, ''I was ironing my clothing and the phone rang...so instead of the phone I picked up the iron and burned my ear...'' ''But how the heck did you burn the other ear?'' The doctor asked. ''How do you think I called you people?'' |
