The Spin Cycle

I don't know about the neighboring islands of Indonesia (it was a bit foggy), but on the afternoon I took the ride - or rather, flight - on the world's largest observation wheel I could clearly descry hordes of Liverpool F. C. fans hogging the National Stadium and waiting for The Reds to rout our home boys. (FYI: 1 revolution ≈ 35 minutes)

Dang!

The 44-year-old Undertaker is seeing the 28-year-old Michelle McCool. Unreal! He's old enough to be her uncle, for Pete's sake! I know there are more extreme cases of May-December romances (especially in Hollywood), but this is bad enough. (Or should I feel happy for them? Maybe I'm just jealous...)

Damn, that McCool looks hot!

We're Sustainable

With the completion of Marina Reservoir, Singapore's catchment area now stands at a third the size of our island. That means we're self-sustainable in terms of water supply and no longer need to 'see Malaysia's face' (read: Mahatir and his outrageous 'bomb threats') for a drink of fluid.

Who Still Remembers Chwee Choon??

My sis, apparently! She's got, like, the most photographic memory (of the most trivial things) among anyone I know – from childhood stuff to books we read for Grade 7's literature class, such as this almost unheard-of 'non-seller' by one Sylvia Sherry. Absolutely amazing.

Direct Access

Singapore Polytechnic must be the only local education institution with its own dedicated, direct (covered) link from school campus to an MRT station (Dover) that was specially constructed in 2001 to serve students there.

Can't blame the public, then, for chiding the Land Transport Authority for putting the taxpayers' money into this limited purpose.

Sing 'Til You Drop

After a hearty group dinner (I didn't get to sample the cereal prawns!), we sashayed over to Level 8 of Cathay Cineleisure, where the next 2½ hours were spent belting out golden melodies at K Box.

Richard & Maureen did many oldies, Allan & Anwar did Michael Learns to Rock, Christopher did John Denver, Steven did Alan Tam and Nu Yin - surprise, surprise! - covered Cotton Fields :-O

This Is Art!

Check out this 'horndog' - willy and all - looking forward to some 'action' at the second-floor lobby of the Singapore Art Museum.
It's a shame they didn't have more of such sculptures over there, which was contrary to what I thought, as it would really brighten up my day!
