I am still buried neck-deep in work and though I have a lot of things to tell you guys (some very great news that I can’t stop thinking about!), I don’t have much time for it. I’m going to Tioman tomorrow for a site visit, and will be back by Friday evening. Meanwhile, here’s something I got in my email some time ago:

A man was riding his Harley along a California beach when suddenly the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said, “Because you have TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish.” The biker pulled over and said, “Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can ride over anytime I want.”

The Lord said, “Your request is materialistic, think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking; the supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete and steel it would take! It will nearly exhaust several natural resources. I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of something that could possibly help mankind.”

The biker thought about it for a long time. Finally, he said, “Lord, I wish that I and all men could understand our wives; I want to know how she feels inside, what she’s thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she cries, what she means when she says nothing’s wrong, and how I can make a woman truly happy.”

The Lord replied, “You want two lanes or four on that bridge?”

Cheers! :vodka:

    That is hilarious! Enjoy your trip! Also, not sure if you’re interested, but they’ve seen porpoises off Penang lately. :)

    I couldn’t stop laughing.

    Can I email the joke? I have a lot of friends that would really enjoy it and don’t speak English.

    Sure hope you’ll manage the work and enjoy the trip.
