The error of my ways



Oops! Today, I discovered a mistake that I had made, unknowingly, in this blog site. As you all know, I have been updating, daily, the top 12 nations affected by the H1N1 flu. I did not know what happened to my mind. It failed to discover that I had been typing out ‘10’ for the month of September and ‘9’ for August! 

I only realized the error when I checked the draw date for the Pan Malaysian, Big Sweep, 7 digit ticket. The draw date was written as 13-9-2009. And it was a new ticket! I grimaced! What a careless mistake to make in the internet! I had immediately set on correcting the errors, with my sincerest apologies. Well, time to have a man to man talk with my brain!

Talking about the lottery ticket, I am not actually a gambling man. However, I am also a believer of luck. That is why instead of wasting my hard-earned money on all sorts of lottery tickets I just indulge in one. My contention is that if one has no luck, even if one were to buy hundreds of the tickets, he would not strike it rich. On the other hand, one who has luck coming his way will have struck it, even if he had bought just one ticket. Nice contention….Eh? The ticket costs just RM3.00 and the draws merely comes once or twice a month.

Malaysia, calling itself an Islamist country, also allows the business of gaming in numbers, which is, practically, gambling. However, it has a law that disallows Muslims to indulge in these numbers games. The players, or more correctly the gamblers, are mostly the Chinese and Indians. In peninsular Malaysia, where I live, there are three gaming companies providing the gaming draws, thrice a week. The Companies concerned in the games of chance are Da ma cai, Magnum 4D and Toto. The games involve the correct prediction of 4 digits to come out in the draws.

One good thing about these games of numbers is that they become a talking point whenever one friend meets another.... And also to cover up one's mistake...you know what I mean...ha!..ha!
