"Sir, I bear a rhyme excelling
In mystic force and magic spelling
Celestial sprites elucidate
All my own striving can't relate."

What are you? Don thought as he looked at the riddle posed
by the computer screen. He had stumbled across riddles on the internet, and he had been taken in by the crafty, if not lame questions.
The "Solution" link looked very tempting, but Don would not forgive himself if he saw the answer before he got a chance at it.

Skipping was of no choice, as Don proceeded to the other questions,
answering them without much effort. He returned to the dumbfounding question after ten-odd questions. What was the solution to that question?

Oh, Don finally got it, almost half an hour after he first set eyes to it.

So that was what Mdm Wong was talking about. Walau, where got people so lame!

-Author's
notes: Do not check the answer on the internet. Try to understand the question
before you do. This question is really good.-

-Edit on 10/2: Haha, I tested this question on 4/1. Sashti got it first, though ChunYing told me the answer before anyone else had a chance to. I credit the answer to her being at the scene while I was explaining the answer to Son.
Evidence? She admitted it. Wa-hey! So, congratulations to Sashtivaran for winning the elusive $2 prize! Gawd, I love riddles.-

A deep breath was taken as Don took the last breath from the menthol inhaler* he had during his coughing days.

Eh, wait. I can breathe properly now! I'm cured! Don grinned to himself.

Now, where have I seen that action before?

Oh.

He settled down for some cliched blogging after he received an e-mail from Alka.

__Four things About You__

4 Jobs You've Had In Your Life (and memories of them)

1. Pacific Internet sales! Hurrah! Walking around in that shirt makes me feel all grown up at 13! First job, I think.
2. Valentine's Flower Sales Executive. Okay la, I just sold flowers on that day. Earned meself around a hundred fifty bucks that day, and I met Booker T! Should be around 11 or 12, during that WWE tour. He bought like, a forty-plus dollar bouquet for his accompanyment for the night, passed me a hundred-dollar bill and told me to keep the change. Rich sia. This is my very first job! *grins*
3. Surveyor. Horrible job. Door-to-Door, and people just slam their doors on you, and refuse to help you in your surveys. Don't ever take this job, however good the pay is. It'll shatter even the strongest of egos.
4. Pet store assistant. Keke. Visit me in Rivervale Mall, Pet Cetera on weekends. I'll prolly be in there watching a movie if not grooming pets!

4 Movies You Could Watch Over And Over

1. For some funny reason, Mr and Mrs Smith. It's bloody cool.
2. Bedazzled. I love that show! Hot devil. xD
3. Bruce Almighty. Need I say anything more?
4. Ah, any Ace Ventura series. Amazing humour. Jim Carrey's an amazing actor.

4 6 TV Shows You Love

1. Whose Line Is It Anyway? Drew Carey show is pretty awesome too.
2. Malcolm in the Middle
3. Friends, or the continuation by Joey.
4. Cheers! Continuation by Frasier, but Frasier lacks the certain "oldie" element.
5. Charmed. Just too damn good.
6. Desperate Housewives. I couldn't resist putting this in.

4 Places You've Been On Vacation

1. Malaysia. Haha.
2. Japan, Disneyland! The place where I developed my acrophobia and family nickname. Ah, bad memories.
3. Thailand, Bangkok and ChiangMai. The usual.
4. Australia.

Come to think of it, why are the places I travel to all around Asia, ah? I shall travel the world with my wife when I'm older (and richer, pounds are gonna kill my bank account)!

4 Places You Would Rather Be

1. New Zealand, because it's just so damn relaxing.
2. On the CEO's chair of a multi-national company that's doing well in the economy (owning the post, not just bloody sitting there for the heck of it)
3. Next to Barry Manilow, as he teaches me music. Wa, shiok sia.
4. My very own island, a mansion just off the shores of France. Titled and deed named after me, with coconut (what coconut? Europe lah!)... err. Apple trees (?) around me, a large garden overlooking the beach. Sigh.

4 Of Your Favourite Foods

1. Roast duck skin in sweet sauce, accompanied with freshly sliced japanese cucumbers, topped with light, sweet belachan and wrapped around with a light, non-descript crepe. Found only in Chinese Restaurants like Ah Yat. Pure heaven for only sixty bucks.
2. Honey-baked ham/sausage scones, three for a dollar in Cold Storage; fully prepared.
3. Lobster Bisque soup, accompanied by various flatbreads. Jerry's, Jalan Kayu, approx. twenty bucks.
4. Double-egg Carrot Cake fried in sweet, dark sauce. Topped with freshly chopped spring onions, and an extra pinch of salt. Sold by a stall found near Kovan market. That famous stall, lah. Two-fifty is enough. (Another good one would be the stall near the marketplace near Jubilee. Two bucks for that, though it's a tad on the dry side.)
5. Mee Rebus, in Ang Mo Kio near a marketplace. Within walking distance from Anderson Sec. Never knew where the place was, exactly. Only two bucks!
6. Mee Pok-lookalike indonesian noodles thingus, sold in Park Mall. Three bucks for a tasty meal. Quite an offer!
7. Clam Chowder, some "ulu" restaurant near the city. Their fish and chips were amazingly delicious, while their chicken chop was irresistable. This is not to mention their salads. And the cheese sausages! Oh, the cheese sausages where twice as thick as your thumb, and six inches long or something! I need to know where it is! Around twenty bucks for each main dish. Expensive, but worth it.
8. Fondue, Max Brenners. Twenty bucks! Chocolate phantasy!
9. Fried Hokkien Noodles, Geylang. The prawn mee just two blocks across the stall is one of the best, too. Four and three dollars respectively.
10. Fish and chips, Fish and Co. Need I say more? $16.90, I think.

Et cetera, blah blah. More in the city areas, though it's horribly expensive. Good money for good food! Yes, these are all my favourites.

4 Websites You Visit Daily

1. DeviantART. (Largest art community on the net with around 1.2m people usage in time of writing)
2. Newgrounds. (No, it's not a porn site. Avoid the porn links, duh.)
3. Wikipedia. (Just started, it's pretty informative)
4. www.yggr.blogspot.com

Cheers!

*Menthol inhalers are those Axe Brand shit, dig? Really horrible, but you can get addicted to them easily. Le gasp. They sound like alcohol!

Don left the computer as he started on American Idol.

"Why in the f*ckin' hell do people actually try to make themselves look like bloody fools on international television?" Don thrusted his arms up into the air in agony, as he endured a horrible rendition of a Tom Jones classic.

"Oi, watch your language. Who cares about these idiots, you're the biggest one for watching them instead of revising for your tests!" Mum rebutted, glaring at Don as he took the hint- When mothers give you the "death glare"(Don refuses to use the proper term "evil eye"; too diabolical), shut the f*ck up.

"It's only for the humour ma... Alright, I'll go revise my Geography later la..." The sentence trailed lazily.

"You better. And please la, quit watching that rubbish. Watch the Singaporean version if you want humour, la. That shit is good."

"Mmmhmm."

So much for vulgarities. Mothers DO have a sense of humour too!
