Apex Re-Cycling Day 2011, 17th December .
Re: Appeal for Cash Contribution towards Apex Penang Education Fund via “ Apex Re-Cycling Day 2011”
As 2011 is coming to end soon and with the coming festive seasons and new year, many people would be doing spring cleaning to clear off unwanted items which are recyclable, for example, old newspapers, tins, cans, clothes, electrical and electronic items. While you are sprucing up your home, we beg to collect these items to sell to finance our Apex Penang Education Fund, as follow:-
Title : Apex Re-Cycling Day 2011
Day : 17th December 2011
Venue : Minden Heights / Glugor
Time : 10 am to 3 pm
While we appreciate ‘Trash for Cash “ recyclable items from the residents, we certainly appeal to your esteemed organization and your kind self for other form of contribution, for example:-
1) Co-Sponsoring the project by contributing RM500.00 for your Company Logo to be printed on our Project Banners with our other sponsors- termed as “ joint adoption” of banner . We will put up a total of 6 banners at strategic places near our project venue. If you prefer “sole adoption” whereby only your company logo will appear with Apex Club logo ( the basic logo), we appreciate a cash contribution of RM1,000.
2) A cash contribution of any amount without “adoption” of banner, as above.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Yours in Apex,
Apexian Lee Kai Eng

THE CRAZY AH BENG
Why did Ah Beng go to a movie with his 18 friends?
Because below 18 not allowed Lah !
Ah Beng wants to buy a TV set. He goes to a shop.
Ah Beng : "Do you have color TV ?"
Salesgirl : "Yes !"
Ah Beng : "Give me a green one, please "
Ah Beng is filling up an application form for a job.
He supplied the information for the columns on Name, Age, Address etc.
Then he comes to column on "Salary Expected", but he is not sure of the question.
After much thought, he writes " Yes "
Ah Beng goes to a store and sees a shiny object.
Ah Beng : "What is that shiny object ?"
Salesgirl : "That is a thermos flask."
Ah Beng : "What does it do ?"
Salesgirl : "It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold"
Ah Beng : "I'll buy it"
The next day, Ah Beng goes to work with his thermo flask
Boss : "What is that shiny object ?"
Ah Beng : "It's a thermos flask."
Boss : "What does it do ?"
Ah Beng : "It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold"
Boss : "What do you have in it !?"
Ah Beng : "Two cups of coffee and one cup of ice cream"
After taking photocopies of documents, Ah Beng always compare it with the original for spelling mistakes.
Ah Beng always smiles during lightning storms because he thinks
his picture is being taken.
Why can't Ah Beng dial 911?
Because he can't find the number 11 (eleven) on the phone.
Ah Beng had just bought a new computer and was using it.
When he encountered some problems. He decide to use the 'Help' command after some tries.
Soon after, he became very irritated and called the computer retailer for support.
Ah Beng : "I press the 'F1' key for help lah, but it's been over half an hour and still nobody come and help me Lah !!
Ah Beng with two red ears went to his doctor.
The doctor asked him what had happened to his ears and he answered, "I was ironing a shirt and the phone ring, lah - but instead of picking up the phone, I accidentally picked up the iron and stuck it to my ear, lah" "Oh dear !" the doctor exclaimed in disbelief. "But .. what happened to the other ear ?"
Ah Beng answered : "That stupid dumbo called back, lah !
Ah Beng talk to a long-distance telephone operator.
Ah Beng: "COULD YOU PLEASE TELL ME THE TIME DIFFERENCE BETWEEN Taipei AND LAS VEGAS ?"
Operator: "JUST A MINUTE..."
Ah Beng : "THANK YOU lah" AND PUTS DOWN THE PHONE.
After completing a jigsaw puzzle he'd been working on for quite some time, Ah Beng proudly shows off the finished puzzle to a friend.
"It took me ONLY 5 MONTHS TO DO IT", Ah Beng brags.
"FIVE MONTHS ? THAT'S TOO LONG", the friend exclaims. "YOU ARE A FOOL." Ah Beng replies, "SEE THIS BOX, IT IS WRITTEN FOR 4-7 YRS".
At a bar in New York, the man to Ah Beng's left tells the bartender,
"JOHNNIE WALKER, SINGLE"
and his companion says, "JACK DANIELS, SINGLE".
The bartender approaches Ah Beng and asks, "AND YOU, SIR ?" Ah Beng replies : "Tan Ah Beng, MARRIED lah"
