My "Hallmark" quote

A friend and I were talking about long distance relationship and I sort of came up with the following:

"Distance is measured in meters but love is measured in heartbeats."

Is it good enough for a Hallmark greeting card? Maybe I should try my hand in a writing job. Ahaha...

Some of my favourite quotations...

"A weak man has doubts before a decision, a strong man has them afterwards." -- Karl Kraus

"We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another." -- Jonathan Swift

"Flow with whatever may happen and let your mind be free. Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing. This is the ultimate." -- Zhuang Zi

"夫以铜为镜,可以正衣冠,以古为镜,可以知兴替,以人为镜,可以明得失。" -- 唐太宗李世民

Don't download Opera 12 if you value your flash

I killed my Firefox as it was behaving a bit slow and I thought I will replace it with Opera as my third browser, behind my trusty Chrome and Safari. Hence I downloaded Opera 12 to give it a try.

Bad move! Punishment for not reading this before I went ahead. Opera 12 evidently doesn't like Flash and will freeze cold when it encounters one; not reacting to anything. I had to force quit whenever this happened.

Hope an update to solve this problem comes soon. Or else I will remove it and stay away from it for some time. It is actually a pity as I kinda like the UI and ease of configuring the various settings...
