Top 5 funniest people on TV

Top 5 Funniest people on TV (in my view)

5. Ray Romano, writer/actor for the CBS series, Everybody loves Raymond. He's paid $2.8 million bucks per episode in the last season (!) but he's worth every penny of it. Now that the show is being re-run on Chan 9, it's really fun to see how the show has evolved over the 9 year period. & It's also amazing to see how he can sustain the show for so many seasons even though there is not much room for manouevre since it is based on just the family itself...

4. David Letterman, CBS late night show host. Ironically, he was also one of NBC talk show hosts' alumni and only moved to CBS when he lost the fight for the late night show in NBC to Jay Leno (who is not even that funny himself..). His wacky sense of humor has set him apart from the other hosts in the US and earned himself a reputation of being a probing interviewer.

3. Conan O'Brien, NBC late night show host. He's one of the funniest talk show host in the US and slated to take over Jay Leno's position as the NBC No.1 host in 2007.

2. 张非, legendary Taiwanese TV host that has one of the most popular talent shows in Taiwan, 综艺大哥大.

AND FINALLY....

1. Jacky Wu Zhong Xian, Taiwanese TV host that has shows lined up from Monday to Sunday (& is reportedly paid on an hourly basis..).
Absolutely love his jokes, & even though he sometimes goes too far, I'm continuously amazed by his endless stream of jokes. One catch: you have to understand both Hokkien and Mandarin to understand what he's talking about...

One of his current top shows:

Update...

No I'm not dead yet... have had to answer that question a million times since the last post... Hmm. First post in quite some time. Have been so busy with exams these past 3 weeks that I wasn't very interested in posting anything up, which is kinda weird if you read this post before... Contradicting, which is what my state of mind is at the moment, but more on that later....

Have had 2 exams so far and only 1 more to go, before leaving Uni. for good... I don't know whether it's just the stress of exams getting to me or there were other factors, but I have been virtually functioning on 3 hours worth of sleep every arvo to keep me going, mainly because I found out I couldn't sleep at all during the night for the first 5 days before the 1st exam and decided to make better use of the time. Everyday I would wake up with a headache and ended up not being able to concentrate for the rest of the day. Luckily I had almost 10 days to prepare for the 1st exam (Corp. Fin.) and I had finished 1/2 of the revisions in the 1st 5 days before I got myself into the semi-conscious state for the remaining 5 days. 1st exam went ok, but I wasn't able to answer some easy questions, which I would have done easily had I not walked into the exam hall only HALF ALIVE. Fingers crossed on the results....

2nd exam came 3 days later. Hadn't attended 70% of the lectures in this subject but surprisingly we were the top scoring group for the subject during the presentation! Figured if that's the case, then it wouldn't be so hard to crap on the exam, given that that was what we did in the presentation too. Managed to prepare the materials to write within 1.5 days and even managed to squeeze in a baddie session and a Tekken showdown w/ Derrick on Sunday before memorizing the pts! All went well in the exam when 2 of the 3 questions I prepared for was spot on and I managed to make up some crap on the spot for the 3rd question, which I thought was pretty good given the time constraint. High hopes for this 1, but better not get carried away 1st, if my past experience was any indication...

Side note: I mentioned it might be the stress of exam that might have caused the insomnia, but I found out that wasn't the only reason. THE MAIN REASON turned out to be I have a VERY PICKY HEAD/BRAIN! I've bought 5 pillows now and for a while they all seem to be pretty good, until they are REJECTED by my brain, which usually results in insomnia. Bought a new one last friday and all was gd again.... until 2 days later when it becomes not good enough (AGAIN!). & my insomnia starts setting in again.... I even resorted to taking some blue pills (NOT what some people are thinking of..) for hayfever & flu with drowsy effect, but even that could not KO me into sleep. Almost every night I'd try to lie down only to wake up 1/2 hr later bcoz I didn't want to waste anymore time trying to get to sleep... & stay up till the next morning... I think I'm turning into Dracula soon....

Any advices for insomnia would be greatly appreciated!!!

Coincidence? Maybe not....

Conspiracy theory ?


In the year 1981:
1. Prince Charles gets married.
2. Liverpool wins the European Cup.
3. The Pope dies.

In the year 2005:
1. Prince Charles gets married.
2. Liverpool wins the European Cup.
3. The Pope dies.

Conclusion: In case Charles will ever get married again and Liverpool makes it into the finals, someone should inform the Pope !!!

Yet another blonde joke...

No time to blog yet. Hope this keeps visitors entertained for a while while I get down to business for exam...

A blonde finds herself in dire trouble. Her business has gone bust and she's in serious financial straits. She's so desperate that she decides to ask God for help. She begins to pray...
"God, please help me. I've lost my business and if I don't get some money, I'm going to lose my house as well. Please let me win the lotto."
That night the blonde dreams she wins the lotto.
Lotto night comes, and somebody else wins it. The next day she prays... "God, please let me win the lotto! I've lost my business my house and I'm going to lose my car as well."
Lotto night comes and she still has no luck. Once again, she prays... "My God, why have you forsaken me? I've lost my business, my house, and my car. My children are starving. I don't often ask you for help, and I have always been a good servant to you. PLEASE just let me win the lotto this one time so I can get my life back in order."
Suddenly there is a blinding flash of light as the heavens open and the blonde is confronted by the voice of God Himself...
"Sweetheart, work with Me on this........... Buy a ticket."
