Who is Vera Baker?

She's the sexy former campaign worker of Mr. Barack Obama, the big man who is now the President of the world's most powerful nation. So what's the buzz on this sexy lady with Mr. Commander in Chief of the United States of America, well one thing's for sure it ain't that sweet.

Earlier reports has it going that the two of them have been going at it and was caught at a posh hotel. Mrs. President, Michelle Obama is said to have blown her top off with this alleged scandal between her man with the 35-year-old Vera.

She’s furious, humiliated and embarrassed. This fiasco is bound to put another huge strain on the Obamas’ marriage.

The Obama White House may crumble...

How I Saved Money at Carrefour last weekend

This is an account how a weekend shopping freak saved money at Carrefour. Here goes...weekends are normally a day I spend with a trip to the local Carrefour in my neighborhood. From some profound reason, I had my trusty Lenovo Thinkpad SL410 with me this time - at the entrance a pretty young thing greeted me as I walked in.

However, some other young person stopped me virtually in my tracks with a hand up and asked, "Encik itu beg notebook ke? Boleh ikat?" - that's the local Bahasa Malaysia for Sir is that a notebook bag? Can I tie it? - and proceeds to reach for my Lenovo bag with one hand while the other holds a cable-tie (a plastic push and lock binder). I was thinking all the time, hey! I've been here with the same before - what the ....and also the inconvenience of having to cut the cable when I walk out which would obviously damage or with some small scratch when I find (if I could) a scissors or cutter at the exit.

And that my friends is how Carrefour turned away a regular minimum RM200 a visit customer who was planning to spend much more that time as he had more than groceries to buy. Bye bye Carrefour for as long as my unforgiving heart can remember.
