It's not just in Mauritius that Iframac and ABC Motors fight!

You might have read it if you have not seen it! In you don't know what I'm talking about, then read "La guerre des concessionnaires d’automobiles" by Yashvin. Even Week-End wrote about it here.



As mentioned in the above title, it's not just in Mauritius that this happens. And this happens nearly in nearly field and of course politics. 

You might remember Paul Berenger shouting that even the prime minister of Mauritius is not secure in reference to the Fine saga. And then you might heard that Paul Berenger is among those Curpen wants to kill or whatever. Then Berenger replying again that he faces danger throughout his whole life.

Coming back to those interesting car advertisements above, I recently came across an email dated December 2007 lost in my spammed Gmail account which I no longer use. Here it is and clicking on the images will enlarge them:

BMW started:



  
Audi answered:





And now Subaru needed to say something:





Bentley chairman ended it:



  
So you can see how it all started and how it ended. Just wondering if I should add this to the Jokes label of my blog ...

Smoke a cigarette everyday and drink a glass of beer every week to live for 100 years!

Mauritius just got another centenarian quite some months ago. He is a Chinese man who is quite healthy but has some problems talking.



One thing unusual about this fellow is that he admits that he drinks a glass of beer everyday. Even more unusual, he smokes one cigarette everyday!

Apparently, you must be wondering how he has managed to celebrate his 100th birthday now?

But one thing I noticed about centenarians is that they are always happy. They always talk a lot and rarely feel worried and have stress. They have a positive attitude.

Of course, things like having a healthy diet or doing physical exercises count on living for 100 years. But don't be in the wrong assumption that by only doing this you will live for 100 years!



James Burty David, our great minister who passed away some months ago was in fact a karateka. He used to go jogging nearly everyday and even recommended his "minister friends" to drink large amount of water!

But how did he died of a heart failure then? Stress? Election worries?

So readers, don't be stressed! Be happy! Enjoy life! Live for 100 years!

PS: I don't smoke or drink or whatever!

Beware of phishers who are targeting Mauritian users

The Mauritian police is seriously investigating this issue where phishers are getting access to bank accounts of Mauritians. And where huge sum of money are involved!



Actually phishers are sending e-mails to customers of several Online banking institutions in Mauritius. These e-mails are very tricky and the customers often reply them with valuable information.



Then the phishers manage to get access to their bank account and withdraw all the money!


So be careful when receiving these e-mails which asks your valuable information. Never send your valuable information and inform your bank about this!
