why does federer cry so much?

i think he overdid it yesterday, maybe he should consider therapy sessions. i guess it's ok to show a bit of emotion that female fans love to see, but not to the point that it made nadal apologize for winning the game...this time federer's crying made me feel more sympathy for nadal. nadal should not have said i'm sorry for winning the open!

Kit-Kat in Japan

Today I learned that when Nestle rolled out Kit Kat in Japan, the Japanese couldn't help but notice how close the words "Kit-Kat" were to "Kitto-Katsu" which roughly translates "win without fail". Students began to believe that eating a Kit Kat before they took their exams would result in a higher grade, which was a major reason the Kit Kat brand is doing so well in Japan's overcrowded retail market. Interesting how we can be tricked into consuming a product for its name than its taste. It wouldn't surprise me if for Nestle "Kitto-Katsu" now translates "win without trying" :)

Free computer games for terrorists

I have in mind computer games made for terrorists and given to them for FREE! They will be games of destruction where the terrorists get to blow up anything they want and...here's the catch, they will always succeed. We wouldn't want to challenge a terrorist to blow things up for real out of game failure, would we?
