I read that Roger Federer will be playing Robin Soderling (again) in their upcoming match at Wimbledon. In their 10 career meetings, Roger Federer has won all the matches against Robin Soderling. Which means that Federer has won 10 straight matches against Soderling. So the question is: Who is more likely to win the next [...]

Probability Question (Maths Friends, Please Help!)

RIP Michael
Saturday, 27 June, 2009
Well, obviously the sudden news of Michael Jackson’s death hit me quite hard, as I’m sure it did for many of the millions of fans around the world. As such, I’ve been a bit distraught recently. This definitely ranks as the most shocking celebrity death of my lifetime, as I was not around when Elvis [...]
Is It IRL/Champ Cars All Over Again?
Wednesday, 24 June, 2009
I’m getting sick and tired of Formula 1. Not because of the sport of racing itself, but because of how the FIA (and the teams) always manage to shoot themselves in the foot. A few years back, there was the McLaren-Ferrari “spygate” scandal, then there was the humiliating “liargate” scandal in Melbourne this year which [...]
Singles, Attractiveness, And Life Partners
Thursday, 18 June, 2009
I was recently talking with a friend and we happened to talk about the topic of singles. And he said that as one grows older, it gets much harder to find good single girls around. According to him, finding a good, beautiful, loving girl in her late twenties who is still single and available is [...]
Kobe
Tuesday, 16 June, 2009
So this NBA season has finally concluded. I dare say I had followed this season as closely as I’d followed any other NBA season, right from the very start of the regular season all the way till the end of the playoffs. It was a fascinating season. Before the playoffs started, I would never have [...]
Jeremy Is Sibelius-ing These Few Days
Tuesday, 16 June, 2009
Yup, because I don’t have/don’t want to have Twitter…I have to resort to putting such updates (such as the above title) on my blog instead. Have been busy working on Sibelius to do some music arrangements (inspired by the great Iskandar Ismail!) for our church service music, for instruments such as flute and strings. Very [...]
What’s Your Unique Facebook URL?
Sunday, 14 June, 2009
I’m sure most of you would have known this by now, but for those of you who weren’t aware… Over the weekend, Facebook implemented the function which allows you to claim your own unique Facebook profile page URL. Which means that if you want it to be called “username”, your profile page can be simply [...]
Rare Lobster
Saturday, 13 June, 2009
This is so funny! I was reading about this rare yellow lobster that was recently discovered in Massachusetts. According to experts, this lobster is a one in 30 million rarity. But the funny thing is, as I saw the picture of the yellow lobster, I went “Wait a minute…what’s so rare about this? Doesn’t this [...]
Twitter…The New Facebook
Thursday, 11 June, 2009
I think it’s time I talked a bit about Twitter. Nope, I’m not on Twitter, cos I’ve yet to be convinced of the “essentiality” of Twitter…and I certainly hope I don’t ever have to succumb to joining Twitter. But I gotta admit, it does seem to be the next HUGE thing, if not already so. [...]
Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida”
Thursday, 11 June, 2009
So I bought Coldplay’s latest album “Viva La Vida” a few weeks ago. I actually bought it from Amazon.com and had it shipped to my home, which you might think is quite silly…but it just goes to show you how rarely I step into local CD shops nowadays. In fact, I hardly ever frequent any [...]
