Old Master Q

"I wonder why they call me the 'apple polish-er'... Is my boot-licking that obvious? Does my breath really reek of roadkill? Hmm..."

Hop On!

There are a myriad of ways one can see the Singapore city - Ducktours, HiPPOtours, what-have-you tours. You can also hop on a topless bus or hail a $2.80-and-up Mercedes cab. Hey, it's free & easy!

In Touch with Nature 2

Because I get my arse cooped up all day long in the concrete confines of the oppit, it's a much welcome change to be able to walk home from work and expose meself to the 'great outdoors'.

5Epipremnum aureum, or money plant, found outside Borders @ Wheelock Place. Do you believe it'll bring forth wealth and prosperity?

MEN IN WHITE

After spooking audiences with the cold-sober horror offering THE MAID, it seems as though local movie critic-turned-director Kelvin Tong's ready for a little spoof of his own.
Combining elements of comedy and slapstick, the InnoForm Media release starring MediaCorp's Shaun Chen and Ling Lee looks to be Singapore's answer to SCARY MOVIE.

Leslie's Lati

For orangemilky the bona fide Blythe collector, Lati Lea (pictured), which is a kind of 'ball-jointed doll' quite unlike the Allison Katzman creation, could be her latest craze.

Double Trouble

Ever had so much to eat until you felt like you could just fast the next two meals away? Out of ambition last evening, I took on the formidable tag team of century egg congee ($2.00) and fried oyster ($4.00) for dinner - and failed to finish off either. Lesson learnt!

It's SHOWTIME!

BAO SUA BAO HAI

The Theory of Flight

From the visionary Wright Brothers to the enterprising Howard Hughes, modern aviation has come a long way. Yet, this hack's never been on a plane. It's nothing to do with vertigo, claustrophobia or aviotophobia; it's, in fact, been statistically proven that airbuses are a much safer mode of transport than automobiles. I'm just not inclined to fly - or travel, for that matter ;-)

BOO...OOPS!

None of my friends and colleagues chose to believe me when I told them the Malaysian hair-raiser JANGAN PANDANG BELAKANG went hay-WIRE on more than a couple of occasions.
Now take this foggy screencap as irrefutable documentary proof: Unless you're Stevie Wonder, you can clearly sight a steel harness appended to the 'body' of the (presumably flight-capable) hantu lurking behind clueless protagonist Pierre Andre (who resembles our own 'Ah Ge' Li Nanxing, no?).

Dunch Be Shy, Doggy

Aww...why are you behaving so bashfully all of a sudden? Cat got your tongue?? Oh, don't tell me you're sizing up Mrs. Winterbottom's newly sheared poodle again. Shame on you, horndawg!

Japanese Ramen

Never been a huge habitue of Japanese food places (save for the sporadic patronage of Yoshinoya). I believe I belong in the colonial era when I claim that most Japanese fodder are either raw or ridiculously spicy. I once dined at Ajisen and found myself slurping soft drink profusely to douse the 'heat'. Between ramen and the generic Maggi mian, taking into account the ajinomoto, I'd go for the latter *_^

Tuzki (^-^)

Ally's favorite emoticon (as also recommended by 93.3 DJ Cruz Teng).

Weiwei's New Hair

Well, it's not exactly 'new', but I like it all the same - just like the way I dote on her (read: Haribo gummies). Yeha (not 'Yeah')! I know this sounds really rock-dumb, but does Jean Yip cut for men? I could certainly use a snip!

Low Crime Doesn't Mean No Crime

a friendly reminder from the reformed repoman...

AnacondA

At 50 - 100 feet and 300 - 550 pounds, she’s the world’s largest snake. Her bite can puncture flesh and her embrace can pulverize bones. Dare Jennifer Lopez to writhe out of this one, biatch!

Try Eating These!

THE CORNERSTONE OF EVERY NUTRITIOUS BREAKFAST IS A BOWL OF COLORFUL RUBBER (FARM) ANIMALS. TESTIMONIAL FROM SATISFIED PARENT: "BILLY USED TO MAKE A HELLOTTA NOISE IN THE MORNINGS. TODAY, AFTER CONSUMING THIS 'CEREAL', HE'S STILL LYING MOTIONLESS IN BED."

(( The Original ))

(( Yes, all my Doubting Thomases, it's indeed been medically proven - worldwide, no less! - that yours truly (ahem!) is The Original since 1974 (my birth year!). Although, I wasn't born in Germany... ))

The Red Shoes

Did You Know: More than 750 million pairs of Chuck Taylor All Star sneaks have been sold in 144 countries since its 1923 debut (data as of 2002)? One ended up 3here on the feet of this metro commuter. I so need something else to blog about!

Malaysian Beauties

Fans unfortunate enough to have stumbled upon the horror stinker JANGAN PANDANG BELAKANG would unanimously agree that the best thing about this show is actress Intan Ladyana (left) and her curves. Still, my favorite Malaysian starlet is the petite but prickly Sharifah Amani (right), who was featured in all of filmmaker Yasmin Ahmad's movies - most notably SEPET.

PSB Academy

The former Institute for Productivity Training in National Productivity Board (NPB) is now relocated to Tiong Bahru - only three minutes walk from my home! A potential workplace for me in future??

The Ex

memories fade... so do photos...

Half Past Dead

I thought I was gone for good. I thought I could never blog again. I thought a burial (along with final rites) would be in order...
I've been resurrected from the realm between the living and the dead.

Game Boys (Pardon Fuzziness Due to Night Mode)

Doofus: Uh, what's that?
Geeko (in a nasal voice): It's a Game Boy, you dumbo.
Doofus: Oh. Why's it called a Game Boy?
Geeko: Stop talking to me. I'm down to my last life.
Doofus: Uh, okay. But how do you know it's a 'boy'?
Geeko (more nasal sounding than ever): Oh my god! Shut up!

SPIDER-MAN 3

5Eyeing the competition: Spidey, everyone's favorite friendly neighborhood wallcrawler, readies himself to take on a busy season of ogres, pirates and wizards.

With a hefty price tag comes unprecedented box office clout. When Sony's webslinging tentpole pic planted its war flag on this day a year ago, competing studios wisely scattered clear to avoid decimation and collateral damage. As a result, the US$260-million Sam Raimi juggernaut now has the whole weekend to itself to slaughter - and what an amazing way it is to kick-start the sizzling summer season!

My Webcam

So I got myself this $35 3Logitech QuickCam Go from Tiong Bahru Plaza's Challenger electronic superstore, but little did I realize that my room's lighting (or the lack thereof) didn't support it?? Image came out dim, blur and all that stuff...

Kavita's Cavity

it's not a thosai. it's not a chapati, either.
