Solar panels to roast chicken



:lol:

Something light hearted this week... :D Not in much of a mood to do anything really... :shrug:

This is an idea from a short (very short) news flashed on CNN or BBC :? (Can't remember! ^^; ) Someone has invented the first solar panelled oven~ and it is really huge! It kinda looks like a big satellite dish... and the chicken were roasting like Kenny Rogers style on the opposite side of where the solar panels were facing. :hungry: The oven is good for the environment :earth: as it uses alternative energy. :thumbsup:

I've got no time!



^^;

Yup, that's me... :D Well, spending way too much time on the :pc: internet is an understatement. :lol: I can't believe it as well...but it's true. :innocent: The past four months have been 'wasted' away... :dead:

"I've got no time!" ;p The phrase was adapted from the Astro commercial some years ago. The original phrase was: "I've got time!" The advertisement was for Astro's recording decoder (DSR~ Digital Satellite Receiver~ Recorder)

It starts with a boss who is able to interact with all levels of his employees because he watches all the TV shows. :teevee: When asked where he has the time to watch all those shows, he'd reply: "I've got time!" And the commercial ends with the boss back at home watching all the shows which he programmed the decoder to record...at his own free time. :fellaright: Corny, I know! :P But the phrase stuck in my head! ^^;

Drawing note: It was such a pain trying to draw all those logos. :X And adding in the wall clock was even worse! :doh: I wanted to show the whole day has passed by with me playing on the internet :typerhappy: ... the pain was the line thickness for the minute and second hands of the clock. :faint:

"I've got no time!" Sigh... :shrug: I guess it's time for me to find a new job. Really. :sadangel:

Reduce carbon emission



:fellaright:

:fellaleft:

Yup, that's Mr. Ban Ki Moon! :D Well, I know the arctic visit was like ages ago... but I guess I'm still on time with the UN general assembly this week in New York! ;)

I saw the news report on Mr. Ban and then I changed channels :teevee: (Oops! Sorry! :oops: ) and there was another report on how some low cost carriers are staying afloat during this economic downturn by introducing a monthly pass...so ppl can travel more and when ppl fly more means more flights...more flights means more carbon emission??!! :confused:

I found it rather amusing so I decided to highlight it. :)

Mr. Ban would prolly have a fit if he saw that news report... :D but then again, the company might say that the number of flights are already determined so it's their way of making sure the plane doesn't fly empty. :hmm:

Bad influence



:fear:

Well, this week's strip isn't meant to be funny... (in case any of you don't get it! ^^; ) It's more of an awareness of the power of media...and that they should think twice before airing anything.

Recently, I saw a local coffee commercial on the :teevee: and I felt it was rather distasteful. It was meant to be funny but it really wasn't. The commercial shows a man drinking coffee :coffeecup: and suddenly realises that an angry mob is after him (presumably some gangsters wanting to collect a loan? :? ) So the guy splashes his hot coffee on the mob. Upon tasting the delicious coffee on their faces the mob started to sing and dance (yes, Saturday night fever style :| )... and the man also dances with them. :wtf:

That commercial reminded me of a news report sometime last week or so about a man throwing acid at several ppl in the mall. :O I remember watching the scene of two ladies with their faces covered with a mask (I think alkaline masks~ looks like those you use for facial!) and being wheeled into an ambulance. Imagine the damage on their faces... :fear:

Just imagine a child watching the commercial earlier and thinks it's alright to throw hot coffee on ppl's face... Hot coffee that can cause burns and scars for life... :O :fear:
