Singapore mass genocide exercise

Off course I am kidding, the gahmen only kills 500 over old and useless chicken in an drill to prevent the outspread of H5N1 bird flu virus. I know, I know, if the news is known by some strong buhddists or animal activists, they may say the gahmen is cruel.

Hey! What? Killing chicken, even millions is still far better than banning bona-fide religious groups.

Shel Silverstein and his books revisit

Remembered I blog about Shel Silverstein and his great books for children during July? Now he has this site that is even niftier. The site features his 10 over books with stupendous flash presentation. You don’t have to buy the books anymore, all you need is a computer and off course, broadband.

Church in Auckland display sign “beware of the God”

I believe the Church is trying to reform and rebuke many of the misconceptions about Jesus, which they claim; He was not a Narnian lion. Other than that, the Anglican Church seems to have some ideas and wish to connect them to the World. (Link)

Choices

This is lostin question of philosophy time.

You have 2 watches, one practical with some very cool features, but it is outright ugly and everyone can see it. Wearing it on your hand is like telling the whole world something about your taste, although it might not be true. People hold you for what you wear.

The second one, beautiful and elegant, the watch has no any other function except to tell you the time. It can be broken easily but the brand is well known, on your hand, watchers will envy you, people will talk about you. You become a celebrity overnight.

The choice is clear. But, you still struggle….

They would properly show them some of Earth’s popular culture as well. (Link)

Singapore identity

This is my favorite topic. If I dare say, this is the single most important thing as a die hard Singaporean. It would be sad if I am wrong.

There are people who fear the wave of incoming foreign talents, I am no exception. There are also people who will not think twice about leaving here for a greener pasture, I know many of them.

Just who is a real Singaporean, a patriot and a person who truly would stand firm even Singapore was to sink?

Our cabinet minister?

I am a small fry, maybe consider insignificance to the nation, but I do have a question, if they set policy to allow foreign talents come and create competition, making many of us lose our rice bowl, will they also allow foreign talents come and run “their” country? That is, taking their rice bowl away?

Why not? I mean we are talking about great pay, if it is about wealth, I believe anyone in the world can train to be a great country administrator, and to love the nation. (Link)

Think I am talking cock?

Men made mark of vengeance on the forehead of a prisoner

Anthony Ray Stockelman, who was sentenced for life, got a hate tattoo on his forehead by his fellow inmates. The wording “KATIE’S REVENGE” serves as a forever reminder for such a crime. Two guards were fired after the photo leaks out to the public.

Talkcock suggestion offered by whatever Singapore agencies

I watch Singapore Chinese news yesterday, it said among the 300 hundreds over cases of HIV, 61% was married couples, more accurately, the wives.

The whatever HIV helping agencies also said that most married couples in Singapore are not aware and never take precautions.

Take what precaution huh?

Like every time wears a condom, during want to have baby time don’t wear is it? Wow! Like that Singapore men must be sharp shooter oredi! Every shoot also can hit the right spot one. Some more you can tell the virus, wei! I want to have baby, you better don’t infect my wife and baby, ok?

If like that can work, I chop!

I like green tea too

Recently I got to know this nice lady from Shanghai. She is nice not only because she is beautiful, but of her high regards to Singapore men, she believes that most Singapore men are friendly and courteous. If you are free, go to her blog and leave a comment there, just say you are Singaporean and she would response. She is pretty good in English too.

But hor! Remember, she is married and very devoted to her hubby one hor.
