Recognising the importance of blogosphere, Singapore Tourism Board has a new feature on their website. A new section featuring blogs about Singapore and events. Shows how much blogging has evolved and how influential it is in making decisions.

I guess its their way of giving back to the bloggers and recognition..... Wonder if my blog can go up as well.....

Anyone knows any other gahment sites doing the same?

Oh wait wait.... sorry sorry , wrong picture......




Yeap thats her...

So head over to the blog now to claim that free tickets.......

and No you don't have to have AIDS to go...

You have AIDS.

| Monday, November 23, 2009



You have AIDS.
Yes you have AIDS.
I hate to tell 'ya boy that you have AIDS.
You've got the AIDS.
You may have got it when you stuck that filthy needle in here.
Or maybe all that unprotected sex what you hear, it isn't clear.
But what we're certain of is you have AIDS.
Yes you have AIDS.
Not HIV but full blown AIDS.



Thats right, there is no other better way to break to someone that he/she have Aids. You can sing it like how Peter from Family Guy does, possibly make it more entertaining. 


Might just entertain for a minute. But afterwhich the sad truth kicks in. 


If you or any of your friends still think that AIDS can be spread by sharing the same spoon, same comb, same towel, hugging, handshakes, sharing toilet seats, and from mosquito bites (thats AEDES, not AIDS) then you must be either living in the 60s, or probably very very ignorant. 


I would think its the latter. 


Sooooo let me help you understand AIDS better with the help of HPB's 10 Myths about AIDS together with MY two Myths about AIDS.




Having AIDS will help me write classic rock songs like We Will Rock You and Bohemian Rhapsody as well as sing them. 

Freddie Mercury got AIDS after he wrote and released the above classics and infact many many other Queen classics was written before he got AIDS.

Having AIDS will help me play in NBA and possibly win lots of MVP and infact play in the Olympics. 

Magic Johnson is taking a daily combination of drugs to prevent his HIV infection from becoming full blown AIDS. He is currently and AIDS Activist who goes around educating people about misconception of AIDS.



Bottomline is to do all you can to prevent AIDS and help spread the word about AIDS. Your Life, Your Canvas is the theme this year for Singapore World AIDS Day. 


Simply putting it, its what we wanna paint on the canvas and canvas being our life, and the paint being your choices.


Do your part for World AIDS day by putting a twibbon on your twitter avatar... or embed the countdown timer seen on the left.



Don't be ignorant ... live your life responsibly.

True Story - My Out of Office Message

|
Hi there

Thank you for sending me a mail,  You see I will be on leave from 24th Nov till the 30th of Nov.

So since I will be on leave I may not be able to respond to your emails in a timely manner which I normally do. I will however try my best to reply to the urgent emails once I get internet access from where I may be.

Rest assured I am not leaving overseas, I am still in Singapore. So if it is a life threatening situation, you can still reach me on my SingTel Mobile at XXXXXXX. Again as I am on leave, I may not be able to pick up all the calls. Rest assured I will try my best.

All hopes are not lost though. My colleagues will still be contactable. I will put their emails here for easy access. You can contact
XXXXXXX
XXXXXXX

Now thank you so much for your time reading through this out of office message. I hope it was entertaining for you as it was for me. There are no restrictions for the length of Out of Office message so I thought, hey might as well make full use of it.

Thank you once again and I hope you have an enjoyable day at work. Good bye.


Did I mention that I will be on leave on 24th Nov till 30th Nov? I think I did, but just in case......


This is my out of office message, again might as well make full use of it... If I could embed a video I would...

Obama and Hillary in Singapore...

| Sunday, November 15, 2009


And so ... the heath-care reform and Yes You Can man is in Singapore. Took this off George Yeo's facebook, so credits to him.

Find it funny how nervous he looked in the photo. He seemed more relaxed when meeting Hillary Clinton...



O, Cheaper Better Faster video... yes cheap video

| Monday, November 09, 2009
Warning : The below video may cause dizziness, nauseous, and irritating symptoms like sub conciously humming the tune in your head. In my case, extreme depression. Consult a doctor if you have any of the symptoms after watching the video.

You have been warned.



The above video was created by the FDAWU (Food, Drinks and Allied Workers' Union)...an anyhow put together acronym...

Saying it letter for letter is too long, saying it as a word sounds impossible... Ffff Dah WU

Encouraging people to get on dunno what CBF thingy.... Dont ask me what is CBF.. it just sounds really wrong, or for my case, sounds like something I say when I am angry.

Have you seen the performers in the show? What the hell were they thinking? I know lah cheaper, better, but I totally give respect (or sympathy depending on which side) to the person or team doing this video.

But then again looking at them, they look like they were forced to do it. Some of them were looking off to the side of the camera. I believe they were looking at the Smith and Wesson or Taser pointing at them.

or maybe a letter to sack them if they dont do it.

They actually dare to release this single after the last hit song, Upturn Down turn song.



Back to the cheap video.. No originality and bad recording, the recording was even worst considering they dare to show them recording in a studio with drums and a bass guitar in the background.

Couldnt they have choosen a better tune or heck WRITE a new one?

And what word is Betterer.. is there such a word?

Really sad to see this being approved and published into the internet. The approvers up there must be high on cheap food...

Again no other gahment video, come close or even be as successful as the one below...

A real life example of a blog troll......

|
Most of you (I presume, if not now would be good) would have been to Areyoubeingserved.com.sg

The Singapore site that lets you talk about service in Singapore sharing stories and such.

We all know or have encountered internet trolls from our journeys on the internet.


Those who have been or not been would be interested to know that right in that site resides a troll......

A troll who shall not be named....





 Alright I will name him Michael.

This guy has been leaving negative comments questioning the wierdest things.

 Infact he is trolling so badly he offended the guest blogger Melly from Green Laundry


Disclaimer: The Ben is not me

Lets see some of his other classic comments he made.. this time round questioning Lester from lesterchan.net




What backdoor thingy you talking about... never heard of guest blogger is its?

In the post where the moderators recommended top 15 tips about service by Bruce Buschel . His comments were well... wierd.




Who is pushing what responsibilities? Which part of sharing you dont understand?

Its quite amazing reading his comments. 

Go check out the site for more of his trolling...

I wonder if he is like that in real life..... would love to meet him in person.
