How to disable a stolen mobile phone.

To check your mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone!: * # 0 6 #, a 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless.
Have you locked your keys in the car?

Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other 'remote' for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).

Hidden Battery Power.

Imagine your mobile battery is very low. To
activate, press the keys *3370# Your mobile will
restart with this reserve and the instrument will
show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will
get charged when you charge your mobile next
time.

P/S : OMG, this is so cool. I haven't tried it out yet. Might actually kick off an experiment to verify the hypothesis. Okay, now I shall just wait for my mobile battery to run really low. It's currently on 12%.

Taxi!

I was driving my mom to fetch some groceries and guess what, I bumped into the most horrific and pathetic taxi driver EVER. I was trying to reverse to get out of my parking space and I initially thought of doing so only after this cab cleared the way. But he beckoned me to drive out and I obliged (unfortunately!). But he only allowed me a very narrow space to do so and I obviously couldn't get out of my parking spot (not even a seasoned driver will succeed). Then, he came up to me and scolded me - "Moi, you tau jalan ke tak tau jalan!". It's as if he did this on purpose just so he could make me his punching bag. I had to apologise for his fault cause I was so afraid he might just walk out of his car with a hokey stick and brandish it on my windscreen. He moved on and so did I. I regretted over something though - I should have taken his number plate down and reported this to his taxi company. I'll make him lose his job and his rice bowl and his family (they might leave him due to his anger mismanagement and also the fact that he'd gone broke). Okay, just dreaming. But hey, I could have and would have. I'm just too kind-hearted to do that to him (Yucks!).
