Lawsuit Against God Almighty

LINCOLN, Neb. - A judge has thrown out a Nebraska legislator's lawsuit against God, saying the Almighty wasn't properly served, because of his unlisted home address. State Sen. Ernie Chambers filed the lawsuit last year seeking a permanent injunction against God.

He said God has made terroristic threats against the senator and his constituents in Omaha, inspired fear and caused "widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants."

Chambers has said he filed the lawsuit to make the point that everyone should have access to the courts regardless of whether they are rich or poor.

On Tuesday, however, Douglas County District Court Judge Marlon Polk ruled that under state law a plaintiff must have access to the defendant for a lawsuit to move forward.

"Given that this court finds that there can never be service effectuated on the named defendant this action will be dismissed with prejudice," Polk wrote.

Omg...Then base on everyone personal opinions, God is going to be sued for Mischief, Threats, Late delivery of promises, unanswered prayers...etc...That might take an eternity for Him to clear the charges...

How dumb can the court be to allowed such filing of lawsuit?

I am amazed @ stupidity of humanity.

Crisis brings opportunitities: Learning to catch fishes in troubled waters


The financial tsunami reaching into Asian market and it may be bad news for most. Singapore is officially declared in recession.

Many of the stocks reminds me of the overpriced sw*s*n ice cream i had in Orchard road. Suddenly sold like ice cream being paddled by the uncles on ice cream motorbikes selling @ $1 per scoop per cone. (sidetrack)

Think this way. ..if you are home maker, or someone looking forward to long term investment. My foresight is property market in SG. SG is diff from U".S simply because we lack of land and govt have plans to further increase the poplualtion. Pro-family policies including baby bonuses not long ago remember?

Through previous down periods of Singapore banks, we see mergers (DBS-POSB, (keppel bank)). This is not likely to happen as the last merger have consolidated the strs of the major banks now. If the tsunami threatens to destroy MAJOR SG banks like DBS, UOB etc, do you think our govt will sit there and watch the show. Knowing the mentality of our government is another important point. "What goes up will come down" A rubber ball that thrown into the air will come down to the ground and then bounce... (U get the hint?)

This is only a handful of opportunities i see..there are specific ones...but i will not reveal too much for it is better to put things into action than to say a million "do wat"s.

My 2 cents about the financial turbulance.
Last advise : "The hastier u are eager to make quick bucks, the quicker u are likely to lose"

Practical tip to Speed up your Internet on Firefox.

Hi SG Guys and gals,

Do you know that for our normal singtel and starhub Internet users, we do not need IPv6 protocol as the protocol is not used for home consumers?

What is IPv6? U can read from the link below"
Definition and info of IPv6

What this means is that by default IPv6 whenever u surf your net, protocol check and some redundant check on IPv6 will take place (eating up abit of bandwidth). Therefore by disabling IPv6 is a wise and smart move to speed up your internet.

Instruction on Disabling IPv6 for Firefox users:
  1. In the Location bar, type about:config, and press Enter.
    • The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue to the about:config page.
  2. In the displayed list, type network.dns.disableIPv6 in the Filter textbox.
  3. Find the entry for network.dns.disableIPv6.
  4. If the value is false, double-click on it, to change the value to true.
    • If the value is already true, IPv6 is already disabled, so it isn't causing your problem.
  5. Close Firefox, start it again, and try to reach a web site.

If disabling IPv6 doesn't resolve the problem, re-enable IPv6 by setting the preference back to false.

*XP SP 2 I.E Users have IPv6 disabled by default.

Hope u enjoy the tips.
