Daily Playoff Rant: Go Spurs!
Friday, 30 April, 2010

I only have one thing to say today: Go Spurs! Close out the Mavs!

Daily Playoff Rant: Last Hurrah For The Spurs?
Tuesday, 27 April, 2010

Not that I’m being  biased here (ok, actually I may be), but I seriously think that the Spurs are looking like the best team in the West right now. Look, they’ve beaten the highly-favoured Mavs three straight games in a row now. And the No 1 seed Lakers are struggling to get past the Oklahoma [...]

TV Talk
Monday, 26 April, 2010

I don’t watch much TV, to be honest. The only thing I watch faithfully is Formula 1 and whatever many NBA playoff games they choose to show every year from April to June. Occasionally I may tune in to the odd big Premier League match, but not often. The reason why I don’t watch that [...]

Slow To Anger
Monday, 26 April, 2010

Occasionally you would bump into a daily spiritual passage that is so pertinent that it seems as if God were speaking directly to you, and I don’t believe that such occurrences are mere coincidences. One passage I came across very recently was “Put A Lid On It” by Joe Stowell (here). It dealt with the [...]

Daily Playoff Rant: Hello, Lakers?
Sunday, 25 April, 2010

This is good stuff…Thunder trash Lakers to even the series at 2-2. Who would have thought? This is the defending champs we’re talking about here. Anyway, the Lakers look rather out of sorts this year. How can the No 1 seed struggle to put away the No 8 seed, and a playoff greenhorn at that? [...]

Good Stuff
Sunday, 25 April, 2010

A few days ago I read with interest (here) about how we have built the world’s first “double helix curved” bridge. How about that eh? World’s first ok!!! I dunno, there may have been “curved” bridges built before, “single helix” bridges built before, “helix curved” bridges built before…but never a “double helix curved” bridge built [...]

Daily Playoff Rant: Go Spurs!
Saturday, 24 April, 2010

I predict the ECF will feature Cleveland and Orlando, and the WCF will feature the Lakers and Spurs. I really like the way things are looking for the Spurs this year. Tim Duncan’s looking as fresh as ever. (Spurs won a hard-fought Game 3, by the way.) The Bulls will give the Cavs a hard [...]

Kevin Durant Fan
Saturday, 24 April, 2010

After watching today’s Game 3 of Lakers-Thunder, and after watching Kevin Durant play for the first time in my life, I have to say that I’m now officially a Kevin Durant fan. Now I know why Bill Simmons has been raving about this guy. Let’s put it this way – some people were just born [...]

NBA Playoffs
Friday, 23 April, 2010

There are few seasons in sports that I love more than NBA playoff season. Nothing beats the intensity of play quite like playoff season, especially when you have certain rivalries going on, e.g. Spurs-Mavs, etc. And even though we’ve just started, this year’s playoffs is looking like a blast already. I’ve got to give Starhub [...]

A Singaporean In Paris
Wednesday, 21 April, 2010

Before the concept of book musicals came about, song and dance at the theatre came mainly in the form of musical revues. Sing’theatre’s latest offering is exactly that – a musical revue that tells the story of a Singaporean KQ (played by Hossan Leong) and his experiences whilst working and living in Paris. To cut [...]
