午餐

一對夫婦上畫廊去看畫,站在一幅作品前,明顯被吸引了目光。原來畫中是三名一絲不掛的黑人男性,在一張長凳上排排坐。

奇怪的是,中央那位黑人全身黑漆漆,居然只有底下那一條玩意是粉紅色的,極其惹眼。

夫婦便往前探頭,想看清楚為何那條東西與眾不同?剛好該畫家經過,好心地詢問:「關於這幅畫,有甚麼我可以為你們效勞的呢?」

那位丈夫就說出了心中的疑問,畫家立即糾正道:「喔,我想你們誤會了。這三個不是黑人,他們是礦工,而這位坐在中央的男子呢,他只不過剛回家去用過了午餐罷了。」

縮寫

一位歌手在演唱會上,被熱情的女歌迷要求簽名,但是為了特殊的紀念意義,女歌迷當場剝開內衣,露出了一對乳房,指定心目中的偶像在上頭簽名。

這名歌手從來不讓他的歌迷失望,所以雖然有些意外,但仍落落大方順從了。

此舉,當然激怒了女歌迷的男友,忿忿不平地上前,掏出了胯下的玩意,挑釁地叫囂:「喂,大人物,你有種就簽在我這裡!」

歌手低頭瞧了一眼,滿臉輕蔑,以很不以為然的口吻說:「喔?看來也只夠簽上我名字的兩個英文縮寫了。」

World AIDS day, 1 December

It's World AIDS Day 1 December. Sorry to tell you that the AIDS pandemic has not gone away including here in Malaysia. We need to do more prevention and we need to do it soon. Meantime we need to care more about people living with HIV in our country as well as their families.

Those of you in KL, do make your way to Berjaya Times Square where there is an amazing exhibition by World Vision called One Life Revolution. You don headphones attached to a little tape recorder and walk through the rooms experiencing the lives of three different HIV+ people. It is informative, educational and most of all, moving.
