Issue#54

Just updated my Samsung Galaxy SII to Androids new operating system Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3. Dont know why I thought it was going to be so much cooler. Just a few things changed. Completely forgot about writing the newsletter. Was supposed to have been submitted on Friday and its already Monday. Oopsy. Almost got the material from last newsletter resubmitted by accident. Ups-a-daisy! An exclamation made when encouraging a child to get up after a fall or when lifting a child into the air. It is difficult to choose which of the numerous variants of the expression to use as the heading of this piece. As with many words that are said to small children, it is more often a spoken term than one that appears in print and this has led to much inconsistency about how it is spelled. In fact, I cant think of a single term that appears in so many different spellings; for example: Upsidaisy, Upsa daisy, Upsy-daisy, Oops-a-daisy, Oopsy-daisy, Hoops-a-daisy The form in which it is now most commonly spoken and spelled is oops-a-daisy. The first known printed record of any form of the term is in Clough Robinsons The dialect of Leeds and its neighbourhood, 1862: Upsa daesy! a common ejaculation when a child, in play, is assisted in a spring-leap from the ground. This was preceded by up-a-daisy, which has its own variations of spelling - up-a-dazy, up-a-daisey, etc. Jonathan Swift used this in his collection of letters, which was published in 1711 as The Journal to Stella: Come stand away, let me rise... Is there a good fire? - So - up a-dazy. The earlier dialect term upaday, which has the same meaning, appears to be the source. The daisy part is a fanciful extension of day,

Hello erbody,

perhaps alluding to the child being on the ground amongst the daisies. Of course, the name daisy itself derives from day - the flower, which closes at night and exposes its yellow centre in sunlight, was thought of as the days eye. Not content with spawning so many forms, ups-a-daisy also has a role in the coining of the word lackadaisical. This first appears in the language in 1768 and can be traced backwards to alack-theday, which dates to at least Shakespeares usage of it in Romeo and Juliet, 1592: Shees dead, deceast, shees dead: alacke the day! Ups-a-daisy is clearly also the direct source of whoops-a-daisy. This has a different meaning and is an exclamation made after a stumble or other mistake. It is usually said by the perpetrator of the error and the saying out loud is a public acknowledgement, somewhat like mea culpa. Whoops-a-daisy, and the shortened forms whoops and oops, are all American in origin. The expression is first recorded, as Whoopsie Daisy!, in the New Yorker, in September 1925. In the 1999 film Notting Hill, Hugh Grants character falls over, saying whoops a daisies. Julia Roberts character then says: No one has said whoops a daisies for fifty years and even then it was only little girls with blonde ringlets. Maybe thats true in California, but its rather surprising that the films English screenwriter, Richard Curtis, gave her that line in a film set in London. Like many in the UK, I still use the phrase frequently, but, as a large middle-aged man with a small amount of straight brown hair, I dont qualify on any of Roberts criteria. Changed the look of the stairway at De Hooi with some creative movie poster wallpaper. Hope you like it. Thanks for making De Hooi Southern Jakartas favorite beer joint.

Well, here is: Youre a woman and you see handsome guy at a party. You go up him and say, Im fantastic in bed. Thats Direct Marketing Youre at a party with a bunchof friend and see a handsome guy. One of your friends goes up to him and, pointing at you, say, Shes fantastic in bed. Thats Advertising You see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and get his telephone number. The next day you call and say, Hi, Im fantastic in bed. Thats Telemarketing You see a guy at a party; you straighten you dress. You walk up to him a drink. You say, May!? and reach up to straighten his tie, brushing your breast lightly against his arm, and then say, By the way, Im fantastic in bed. Thats Public Relations. Youre at a party see a handsome guy. He walks up to you say, I hear youre fantastic in bed. Thats Brand Recognition. Youre at a party and see a handsome guy. He fancies you, but you talk him into going home with your friend. Thats Sales Rep. Your friend cant satisfy him so he calls you. Thats Tech Support. Youre on your way to a party when you realize that there could be handsome men in all these houses youre passing, so you climb onto the roof of one situated towards the center and shout at the top of your lungs, Im fantastic in bed! Thats Junk Mail.

Meggy Mumu interviewed Ade who recently welcomed her first child! Hi Ade, hows your newborn baby? Shes awesome. Shes very easy to take care of! What about your husband? Hes happy excited! Does he get jealous because you now devote your time and attention to the baby? Yes, sometimes. (laughs) How many children do you plan on having? Three, and the newborns my first one. Wow. Do you actually believe that banyak anak, banyak rejeki (the more children you have, the wealthier you are going to be; a traditional local myth - or otherwise! Ed) Um.. Yes, I actually do. What do you want your child to be? The ideal scenario? Doctor. What kind of doctor? Er.. I dont know. One of those specialists who charge high to their patients and get paid a lot. Suppose you end up with three children. Do you want all of them to be.. high-charging and rich doctors? Oh, yes.

Issue#54

Another slight falter in our season as an injury-ridden 13 players lost by a single goal in a midweek game against the Nomads. A bit better fortune, a couple of extra players and perhaps some semi-competent refereeing* might have seen us pick up a deserved point there but, as King Kenny says (this season at least), theres more to a good season than just the points. We should probably focus on the excellent shirt deal and the sponsorship allowing us to party after every game AND send two teams to the Bali sixes this year. On that basis perhaps the only area where Liverpool perhaps has the edge is, as far as we know, they dont have a problem with sock quality. Not to worry - thats being taken care of too.. Our season looks complete! Ray hasnt had a mention in these reports for some time so credit where credits due, he did play through injury pain to allow us to have eleven men on the pitch.. Although next time he may possibly want to consider if the referee is the best man to mark when we are defending a corner. If we want to focus on results on the pitch it should be noted that we managed to bounce right back with two wins in the same day the following Saturday with Willie van Blisterboy outdoing Messi by scoring six in one day. Messi may however wish to challenge whether Willie really should get credit for the two goals awarded in the walkover win against the homeless Diablos. The other match, in which Willie really did score four (and missed a couple, it has to be said) was a 6-3 friendly victory over the Lions, a team not lacking in ability. They have the ability to talk a good game, for example (cheers Neil), and they certainly have the ability to live up to the true spirit of the league by getting absolutely hammered in the bar after the games. Roll on the four team tourney next Saturday - looks like another trophy for the cabinet (if Murphys also stick to the spirit that is and leave the pros at home - its a dangerous pitch boys, dont risk injury before your contracts start). *One more thing which may have contributed to our downfall midweek was some very confusing guidance from coach and skip - first coach said we had already picked up two points for a win awarded for the upcoming game on Saturday and then, having asked for 150% effort in the second half, handed over to skip for the usual morale booster - in which skip asked for 110%! Players were visibly spinning round asking each other what percentage effort they should apply. Two weeks from now, skip will return from a company sponsored trip to a special secret leadership training facility in Switzerland and we are expecting great benefits to flow to BuGils FC - a kind of hidden sponsorship.. Yet another positive for the season.. King Kenny is right.
