Uber Burger
Tuesday, 27 February, 2007
Uber Burger – An example of a Purple Cow gone wrong, in my opinion. Apparently, this ultra-hip gourmet burger restaurant located at Millenia Walk has recently folded. Take a look at this blog post which gives a pretty good run-down on what happened: Are F&B Flops Uber Unlucky? Now tell me, seriously…do you know of [...]
Thoughts On Travel
Sunday, 25 February, 2007
“The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” - St. Augustine … One of the great things about travel is that it opens your eyes. You get to see that the rest of the world can be so different from this sunny little island that we live on. You [...]
Domain Name Question
Friday, 23 February, 2007
How come in countries like Singapore and Australia, the domain extension is .com.sg and .com.au respectively, but in countries like the UK and Japan, the domain extension is .co.uk and .co.jp? Where did the missing “m” go to? Better still, if I’m not mistaken…domain extensions for countries like Germany and Italy are like simply .de and [...]
Pet Peeve: Cheesy Headlines I’ve Had Enough Of…
Thursday, 22 February, 2007
The next time I see the following types of headlines in our local papers/magazines/media, I think I’m gonna throw up: 1. Any article on Stefanie Sun that has the word “Sun” in the headline, e.g. “Rising Sun”, “The Sun Rises Again”, “Sun-ny Side Up”, “Sun Shines”, etc. (The same also applies to articles on Sun Ho, [...]
The Good Ol’ Days Of The NBA
Wednesday, 21 February, 2007
It’s slightly past 1am over here in Sydney, but I’ve just spent the last 30 minutes or so (I’m a slow reader you see) reading this wonderful column by my favourite sports columnist Bill Simmons, from ESPN.com. If you’re an NBA fan and have at least a vague recollection of the good ol’ days of the league, [...]
Out-Of-Country Message
Friday, 16 February, 2007
I will be out of the country till 25th Feb (Sunday). Going Down Under for a holiday. Your comments will probably not be read till I return. For urgent blog-reading needs, please visit other blogs…or re-read my older blog posts.
“Grumpy Old Men (and Women)” plus Other Random Musings..
Thursday, 15 February, 2007
Have you ever noticed, that when you listen in on the conversation of middle-aged to old-aged chinese folk, they always seem to be grumbling about something? It seems as if they’re always the victim of injustice or something. … Why is it, when you are browsing for books and magazines in a slightly crowded bookshop, the [...]
The Times They Are A-Changin’
Tuesday, 13 February, 2007
Today let’s talk a little bit about politics. No, not Singapore politics. We all know there’s nothing much to talk about there (or rather, there’s nothing much a sensible person would venture to talk about). Let’s talk about American politics instead. (Whoa!, you say.) Ok, maybe just a little bit…not going too deep here. … It was the great poet-songwriter [...]
