Before & After Take

My wife is still in America for the past one week now and she is enjoying the maiden trip's new sights & sound of the new culture. Her 2 weeks stay there is a tough and gruelling one with daily dialogue & meetings with the Think Tanks from the Robotics Team of the world's top university on this subject. 

Meanwhile, she visited many interesting places where I have left the trails of my footprints. She went on to experience the same river cruise where Bruce Willis filmed several of his action packed movies. She also met up with my 2 long lost Japanese sistas! She blew my mind with their photograph taken below.

She gave me a new key chain before she left and it comes with a tiny cute bible for husbands! I could not help laughing at the daily quotes expressed inside.



Some Silly Quotes:

True love does not have a happy ending:
true love does not have an ending.

**********

One nice thing about being a man is that you don't
have to kiss somebody who hasn't shaved in
3 days.

**********

It takes a smart husband to have the last word
- and not use it.

**********

There are three things most men love
but never understand:
females, girls and women.

**********

The best time to do the dishes is
right after your wife tells you to.

**********

A husband wanted to show his wife 
who was the boss so he bought her
a mirror.

**********

A husband should tell his wife everything
he thinks she'll find out.

**********

Getting married is one mistake
every man should make.

**********

Husbands are like fires.
They go out when unattended.

  8. That is very thoughtful and sweet of your two Japanese girl friends who host your wife in US. They are so cute to take that same pose of picture to show you after 24 years.

    Besides, I love the quote "Husbands are like fires. They go out when unattended." the most . I take that as a reminder to yourself. Letchumy is so lovely to give you gifts when she left for oversea.

  11. already a week was over??!! time really passes so swiftly.. though described as tough and grueling, I am sure Letchumy actually enjoy her stay there.. having a chance to have daily dialogue and meetings from the world's top notch people could mean a sheer enjoyment to Letchumy, and I would actually believe so without doubt for this superwoman..

    so THAT photo was taken finally, and Thambee wonders if that was his original suggestion being taken?? haha.. 24 years apart (not 30 that I thought), same place and same pose and 2/3 same people, haha!! that is fun, especially with the same lady hiding behind, she did it!! haha. now this make me plan to take photos of the same place and same pose with the same people if we are ever going to the same place again.. it really is worth doing, the comparison would be one fun part to appreciate.. :)

    a little "husband bible" left for you before Letchumy left for the US?? hmmm, seems to be a fun read, but probably she has got some hidden message for your behind her intention?? I too enjoy reading the quotes, some really cracks me up but I have to agree that they are so so so true!! I always admire those who can come out with such witty quotes, kudos!!

    "One nice thing about being a man is that you don't have to kiss somebody who hasn't shaved in 3 days."
    That will depend on whom you are kissing and which part of the body you are kissing.. LOL!!

    1. I wanna laugh now as it has come to 2 weeks so fast! Tonight she will board the plane already and head to Chicago! Yoohoo!

      It was all unplanned to take the same poses as I could never imagine that fate could bring them together after 24 years. The 2 Japanese should have gone back to their homeland and got married but they stayed on! It is good that facebook got us connected all these years.

      Whoa!!! You just scared me about the hidden messages!!! Where got hidden?? ***Sweating now!***

      LOL Wakakaka hamsap Thambee!!! What hair are you talking about??
      My beard grows fast like sandpaper without a single day's shave.

    Your wife is so nice to give you such a thoughtful gift before she flew off. Maybe you should prepare something equally thoughtful for when she returns.
