Some trends that can tick one off

We know something is wrong with our civilization and all the frills that come along with it when you start suspecting it. When we call ourselves civilized and cultured people, yet somehow that idea is something I am yet to encounter.

Jet charter is fast becoming an essential tool for many of today’s busy executives who need to maximize the efficiency of their working day. FlyMeNow is one of the leading jet charter providers in UK.

Let me list out some plain points that get my vein popping with anger:

1. Doesn’t that annoying commercial on television make you mad since it’s the twentieth time you’re seeing it dance up on the screen? At this point, the Baskin Robbins ice-cream ad shall receive special mention. ‘Ice cream and cake’ has hit my ear so many times that I think I am going to be nauseous when I am served one. The background music is infuriatingly corny, and at times I am irked to the extent that I could bang my head on the wall. Why do the ads have to come up just when I am watching a nail-biting match on television! Is my fate in shambles?
2. The North Carolina Revenue Department has an amazing lag time in processing tax refunds. Why is it that even though we filed our revenue electronically and our refund form should have taken no more than 30 seconds to be typed and sent, yet we are politely asked to wait for two weeks for a check? Isn’t that ridiculous?
3. You should really read the comments section on the internet. You will be able to distinctly differentiate between the intellectual, smart and comical comments from the snotty, gross and phooey comments that are displayed. I wonder if the latter comments come from sane human beings or ravaging animals without an inkling of a hint gesturing that these guys have anything called brains. Somebody tell them they’re just displaying their own numb-skull skills.
4. Then there are the frustrating soaps featuring on television shows – they have used every topic known to man, so they might make serials like ‘Whodunit in the bathroom!’
5. Automated phone systems: Absolutely blah!
6. Some generous social worker really should teach those illiterate employees at the drive-through restaurants how to read. Is there a conspiracy in place to not give me all the items I end up paying for? C’mon! Where’s my burger, guys?

Allen Carr’s easyway to stop smoking books are one of the best selling books on how to stop smoking. It explains in easy language on how to free yourself from smoking

Tom and Jerry virtual world to be launched by Turner Interactive

The branch of Turner Entertainment, Turner Interactive, is developing a 3D online virtual world, based on the popular cartoon characters Tom and Jerry. It will be a dedicated website and will enable users to create their own cartoon characters such as 'cat' and 'mouse'. The website will boast of an interactive world, where the users can roam destinations like malls and parks. Users can roam and socialize in the virtual world.

The good news for Indian fans is that though the website will be launched across the globe, it could land first in India. Benjamin Grubbs, regional director, interactive media, Turner Entertainment said, “India could be the first market where Tom & Jerry virtual world will go live in the second half of 2010.” He also adds, “Tom and Jerry are big brands in India, so India is a perfect market for the roll out of the virtual world first.”
