lion meat for sale

Remember Singa? He was created in the 90s by the government for the courtesy campaign then.
Singa the Courtesy Lion!

Was wondering where he went to recently when I saw this:
lelong lion meat!

Alamak.. How can like that? Now no more Singa Lion, who will teach our future generations about courtesy and graciousness?

Actually it kinda explains all those impolite and anti-social acts which we see increasingly posted in Stomp or in the forum pages. Go figure.

what's that coming over the hill?

Brain fried tonight through misuse
Through misuse, through misuse
You can't avoid static abuse
Abuse, abuse

(x4)
What's that coming over the hill
Is it a monster? Is it the Homester?
Homer Simpson

Without these pills you're let loose
You're let loose, you're let loose
Take off, get out, no excuse
No excuse, no excuse

(x4)
What's that coming over the hill
Is it a monster? Is it a lobster?
Doctor Zoidberg

Confused, mind bruised, it seeps out
It seeps out, it seeps out
Face down, home town looks so grey
Looks so grey, looks so grey

(x4)
What's that coming over the hill
Is it a monster? Is it the cheester?
Dr Chee Soon Juan

Convexed you bend, twist and shout
Twist and shout, twist and shout
Stand up brush off get moving
Get moving, get moving

What's that coming over the hill
Is it a monster? Is it a mobster?
salem witch hunt

What's coming over the hill for you?

the NUS song

(sung to the tune of the OCS song)

We come from many places, all across the land,
From many different races, together pens in hand,
United we stand, divided we fall,
Ready to burn the midnight oil.

(chorus)
We come from NUS,
We are the very best,
We are the elites in the west,
We mug for every test,
There can be no rest,
Our mugging is forever more.

To improve our C-A-P, it's what we all believe
To get on the Dean's List is what we must achieve
Forever in the library, we'll give our lives and more
Never ceasing to mug forever more

(repeat chorus)

and so it is..

Yep.. Its confirmed. Not the fact that SG ministers are getting a pay hike, but rather the exact amount. I just wish that they would not go around beating the bush and pretend to debate about it. The hypocritism is just killing me.

For those who are residing on the moon, a direct link to an article by the Internal Herald Tribune can be found here.

And yep, to quote our favourite Opposition politician Chiam See Tong, "It can be said that our ministers receive the highest salaries in the world. This can be entered into the Guinness Book of Records as a world record. This is another first that Singapore can boast of".

Yaay!!!

All happy now - from Asiaone
They've changed to a more sombre looking one this morning.

Who said we are left out of the hikes? More crazy stuff as usual from Insanepoly. =)

all ready for the second coming?

Been to Church? Hidden all your Easter eggs? Dressed up the bunny? So many things to do in preparation for Easter!

Well, all that hard work should pay off for all our good church-going, god-fearing Christians, as Christ gears up for the Second Coming, slated to happen 2 Aug later this year. Ever since He returned 2007 A.D. ago on what is known now as Easter Sunday, many Christians, prophets and even Nostradamus have tried to predict when the Second Coming, or Judgement Day as many of us also know it by, would be.

Now as all crosses point to the magical date 2 Aug (according to this report by The Onion here), even He Himself has spared no effort in making it as momentous as possible, by getting out the exercise machines (no Cali Fitness up there) to get in shape, fine-tuning his lightning bolt-ing and maybe sharpening his reckoning skills to deal with all us sinners.

Be prepared. Be very prepared.

early easter

The Easter holidays started early for me. =)

Didn't have class today so the ME boys ride was on as usual. Pace was reasonable and for once we managed to stay together as a group for most of the ride (sorry for the previous rides lah!!!).

Went to Bluespoon to get take-away and went to Grandma's place for lunch.

Did a swim-run as usual with SAFRA Mt Faber runners. Swim was ok. Ran alone for the first time in a long time. Needless to say, clocked a PB. =P

It was a good day.

What threat to the Bush Administration are you?
