Strangely, I was never short-sighted when I was in school. So in terms of my eye sight it was a breeze - 6/6. I only realized something was wrong when I was at the National Stadium for a soccer match after a long time and when they flashed the line-up with the players' names and numbers on the opposite I thought the score board was for the other side to read. It didn't help that in the old day, every player was unique in that you recognized them in the way they ran or moved so when I could not see their numbers I still knew who they were. I was well into my second half (not soccer) of my twenties when I realized I was short-sighted after doing an eye test. No wonder every lady seems beautiful at one time. My world crumbled as I can't call people four-eyed anymore. It must have been caused by the midnight oil I burned - er, reading comics. Fortunately I have a good place to go to and have been going there ever since for all my eye care needs together with my family. Ladi

This is a must-read article. If something is not good, it will not appear on my blog. By the way someone in Ghana became the 67th country to reach my blog. Most of us think that we are still fit but only aging a bit somewhat. I asked around and found that it is quite common for folks to fall asleep at the sofa after a hard day's work. More and more often, we may even feel sapped of energy and mostly lethargic. I got to hear more people having all kinds of symptoms of health issues even among the healthy ones. Some have allergies, knee problems, sleeping problems, pain in hips, back and shoulder aches, headaches and migraine. A host of issues can be found in most if not all of us. After a while, we began thinking that well this is probably part of aging. It comes as a package in life. Some of us have moderately high to high cholesterol, raised blood pressure, gastritis or indigestion, we may have even lost our usual appetite for meals and we could have no more energy for exer

Titleist is owned by the Acushnet Company and is most famous for their golf balls like the NXT Tour, NXT, DT SoLo and especially the Pro V1 and Pro V 1x. Titleist is derived from the word titlist which means title holder. Acushnet owns other brands like Pinnacle and Footjoy. They used to own Cobra golf too but was sold to Puma in 2010. Titleist used to have a slogan "Serious clubs for serious players" which in a way makes clubs for better players and you do not see many golfers carrying them unless they are quite proficient but this is no longer and not entirely true. Unlike other brand Titleist do not release a slew of products every time and each time they do they usually have two models. They would name their series as 904, 906, 909, 910, etc. Drivers would be 909 D2 and 909 D3 while the fairway woods would be 909 F2 and 909 F3 while hybrids are named 909H. The irons are AP1 and AP2 with AP meaning Advance Performance. Titleist are also very famous for getting two o

Somebody said that someone said nature is awful and asked what I thought? It is not uncommon for me to get asked such questions whenever some big tragedy happened like the recent earthquake and tsunami, the previous one too and 911. Some even asked me when the world will end. Some Chinese netizens wrote that the disaster should be greater for their war crimes of the Japanese in Asia while other Chinese rebutted those who did and put them in their place. It did not help that some religious figures said certain things about God's warning, punishment and others. There was even a cleric who declared that because women were scantily clad the earthquake happened. I can understand Chinese feelings and when I asked Japanese people what they thought they admitted what their forefathers did was wrong but they felt they were blamed all the time. It isn't their fault but Japanese leaders have a fond habit of visiting the Yasukuni Shrine where they enshrined the war dead whic
