A
MALAYSIAN VALENTINE

Suanie
and I were sipping our 46th beer, blowing smoke rings and popping murukku into
each other's mouth when I suddenly turned slushy mushy. In
a bout of barley malt induced insanity, I asked her the risk-laden question: "What
colour roses do you like?" She blew a heart-shaped smoke ring and whispered
oh so sweetly, "I rather you buy me RAM..." Prophetically
enough, a Japanese company is now selling heart-embossed memory chips
for Valentine's Day. Yeah, she's geeky and charming, (almost) always logical and
practical but 512MB of DDR RAM still costs RM
500, unwrapped.
It got me thinking, are there Valentine's gifts
other than expensive flowers, dinners and computer parts? Here's some gift suggestions
for other thrifty Malaysians. Happy
VD friends, bloggers and readers.  | Impress
her with your patriotism. A beautiful drooping Rosa-Sinensis (National
Flower - The Hibiscus) surrounded by three blades of carefully selected Imperata
Cylindrica (National Weed - The Lalang) and 2 cute, sticky, seedy inflorescence
stalks. Sharp and smart. Only 1.50 per bouquet. |
 | Ali
married Fatimah, at long last.
Finally, a bi-gender, laxative-looking aphrodisiac
to share. Just the stimulant for a romantic Valentine evening. Since the product
is new and untested, I don't know if there are any adverse side-effects. |
 | For
Ah Lians only. Get your man a truly useful gift this Valentine's. Only RM 10 per
dozen, wholesale price.
Ah Beng need not drive
around with a flickering fluorescent light anymore.
