HAPPY FATHER'S DAY and 2 other discoveries!
Yeah it's Father's Day today alright in this part of the world. And all this while, I thought that every 3rd Sunday of the month of June was Father's Day. 
I can say I'm right because about 50 countries celebrates on the 3rd sun of June. So to be sure, i googled and found the answer at Wikipedia, that it is celebrated in other days according to the custom of the countries. Click here to read and do checkout the dates for the various countries. Interesting to read that in the Roman Catholic tradition, Father's Day is celebrated on the Feast of St. Joseph (March 19). Ah that gives a good meaning for us Catholics, and for the fathers an example to emulate.
Thinking that at least Mother's Day was spared and is celebrated on the same day (i.e. 2nd Sunday of May) throughout the world, I was again cheated! In the same website, I found that like Father's Day, Mother's Day too is celebrated at different days.
I guess this is not a big fuss because we have many other celebrations that differs in dates with other countries, such as Teacher's Day and Children's day but there are some events that is celebrated at the same date such as World AIDS Day and Nurses Day.
But I want to make a fuss of another discovery i made, that is; the KFC does not taste the same in the land Down Under as to compare in Malaysia/ Singapore. OK, this can happen with other chain fast food restaurants but not in this case with KFC. I'm saying so because KFC has the 11 herbs and spices secret recipe. Isn't the recipe the same all over the world? Everywhere they advertise of the 11 herbs and spices original recipe! So why the different taste? Hmmmm, anyway Malaysia KFC taste better!

He said he was thankful to God for allowing him to be part of God's plan in nurturing life. wow!
