Man Gets $218 Trillion Phone Bill
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - A Malaysian man said he nearly fainted when he recieved a $218 trillion phone bill and was ordered to pay up within 10 days or face prosecution, a newspaper reported Monday.
Yahaya Wahab said he disconnected his late father's phone line in January after he died and settled the 84 ringgit ($23) bill, the New Straits Times reported.
But Telekom Malaysia later sent him a 806,400,000,000,000.01 ringgit ($218 trillion) bill for recent telephone calls along with orders to settle within 10 days or face legal proceedings, the newspaper reported.
It wasn't clear whether the bill was a mistake, or if Yahaya's father's phone line was used illegally after after his death.
"If the company wants to seek legal action as mentioned in the letter, I'm ready to face it," the paper quoted Yahaya as saying. "In fact, I can't wait to face it," he said.
Yahaya, from northern Kedah state, received a notice from the company's debt-collection agency in early April, the paper said. Yahaya said he nearly fainted when he saw the new bill.
Government-linked Telekom Malaysia Bhd. is the country's largest telecommunications company.
A company official, who declined to be identified as she was not authorized to speak to the media, said Telekom Malaysia was aware of Yahaya's case and would address it. She did not provide further details.

So you mean 'Crazy bills' aren't confined to Nigerian soil?

Royal rumble

It's stale news that the President of my country is at loggerheads with his deputy.


This imbroglio is heating up and as journalists have said, 'body bags count will start'.
I don't see any strange thing in this struggle because these two people are from different worlds, only brought together by similar desires - the quest for power. So it's bound to happen. But as Pirelli will put it, 'Power is nothing without control'. Some have asked Mr. Atiku to stepdown. I laugh at them. It's as if people don't know what these people are at loggerheads for.Is it not this same power that Atiku wants more of? How do you expect him to drop the one he has when he wants more. If permitted, these people will die there. So I won't be surprised if Mr. COJA(won ti kowo wa ja - according to Eedris) refuses to step down.Deep down within me, I know Mr. Obasanjo will go by 2007, the only thing there is that he wants to scare away some greedy people from ascending the throne.Only one song do I have for Baba Iyabo;Be careful, 'cos this life is full of sorrowsWatch the company you keep and the friends you followbecause ****talking gibberish****Eni to mo eniyan lo n pa eniyanNothing stays the same,As you lay your bed, na so you go lie on top am.
Don't mind Audu Ogbe & Atiku.

If na only one, no be three say I
No go fit stand alone na lie......Iro ma ni won n pa.

Tell them that you can do it all alone............to Ota farm though :D


*******Sorry I didn't get a picture of two white sheep but black ones, I could only lay my hand on this one.****

Dumb and dumberer

It's been a while that I heard very funny remarks and I became stupefied when I heard some recently.For someone to be appointed as the Deputy President of a country, it must have been confirmed that he is sound both physically and mentally. His IQ rating would have been confirmed high enough for him to occupy the revered position.It's not news that people who aspire for such posts are astute men of great wisdom and integrity, who are knowledgeable about many things,especially the ones that affect people's lives.I therefore became flabbergasted when I heard that to prevent infection after he knowingly slept with (not raped) an infected lady, he simply went to the bathroom. In his words, " I took a shower to reduce the risk of infection after unprotected sex with an HIV-positive woman".What in the world was he thinking? That the AIDS virus is like filth which caan be washed off?! C'mon!Haba! I know without any element of doubt that Mr Jacob Zuma is much smarter.Could it be that the shame of impeachment steals composure and understanding from a man?And to even think that he was once considered to be a favourite for the President of South Africa after Thabo Mbeki is stupefying.
And nothing worries more than the thought that a journalist who works for an astounding media house like BBC who cannot simply relay someone's words to the whole world without manufacturing insinuations.As much as I am against third term, I did not see anything that looked like Mr Fani-Kayode saying that the president will run for third term. "What he [Mr Obasanjo] said is that God is not a God of abandoned projects. What he was referring to are the economic policies of this nation. What he's referring to are the economic reform programmes that this administration has set in place," the presidential spokesman explained.
"It does not necessarily mean that that means that God is going to use him in the future." Abi how does that correlate with "Nigeria's president will consider his options to stand for a third term, guided by God and other considerations, his spokesman says" tori olorun?!
Please report what you hear and not what you think.
The saying is true that the world apppears yellow to a man with yellow fever.
It's a funny world you know.
