Billionaires

Mark Zuckerberg, at 23, is the world's youngest self made billionaires - today. His networth is estimated to be 1.5B USD. He founded FaceBook, (I still don't have account on it), which now boast over 65 millions users worldwide. The company itself is priced around 15B USD, benchmarked from the not so recent purchase of 1.6 percent stocks by Microsoft at 240 millions. On a separate note, Mark is also a Harvard dropout, like Bill Gates.

I am no longer 23, so when will I make my first billion? Let's see, if you count in my home currency, 1B IDR would be around 110K USD or 535K DKK. With the current pace, I suppose I can reach that mark within the next... urm, 4 years?

Stuck on Toilet?

If you think about it, over 6 billions people in the world, one strange case like this may be permissible... 

WICHITA, Kansas (AP) -- Deputies say a woman in western Kansas became stuck on her boyfriend's toilet after sitting on it for two years.

Ness County Sheriff Bryan Whipple said it appeared the 35-year-old Ness City woman's skin had grown around the seat. She initially refused emergency medical services but was finally convinced by responders and her boyfriend that she needed to be checked out at a hospital.

"We pried the toilet seat off with a pry bar and the seat went with her to the hospital," Whipple said. "The hospital removed it."

"She was not glued. She was not tied. She was just physically stuck by her body," Whipple said. Read more here.

Rebus

This is the longest 'sentence' that I found can be read the same forward and backward.

A TOYOTA. RACE FAST SAFE CAR. A TOYOTA

ATOYOT A .RAC EFAS TSAF ECAR .ATOYOT A

And this is the longest word that I found can be read the same forward, backward, upward, and downward.

NOON

If you can pay for your bills online; why not pay for your sins?

It's a tag line CNN came up with for this article.

The world's getting crazier each day, that's for sure.

Although, it's comforting to know that our God is even closer to us than those online confession sites. With internet, you still have to have a computer and an uplink. With our God, it's just a prayer away.

Have you sinned against Him today?

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness - 1 John 1: 9.
