What's up with that?This post is a reaction post based on an article I read on "An American Girl in Singapore" called Heels and Talons, by a blogger named Megan.  Megan saw a girl riding passenger on a motorcycle wearing high heels.  Megan wasn't too impressed with her fashion sense, but what caught her attention was the girl's overly long, disgusting toenails. …

A few months ago I was complaining that I hadn't been able to find decent pizza in Singapore, but I think that quest has finally ended. You may be thinking that Singapore has Pizza Hut, but that doesn't do it for me. Even in the US I think Pizza Hut is gross. The stuff is just too oily. You shouldn't be able to see grease dripping from your slice of pizza when you pick it …

Even after being in Singapore for almost two years, there are still quite a few places I haven't seen, like the Jurong Bird Park for example, but I was kinda shocked to realize that there was a whole park and a whole set of shops, outlets, and stores hiding just behind the main drag (Orchard Road), along Exeter Road behind Orchard Central and 313@Somerset. Like I said in …

My wife is from the Philippines and we have family just outside the greater Manila area in Rizal Province.  They live in Antipolo, which should be ok, because it's at a higher elevation.  Most of them work in Manila, though and we can't seem to get through to them because Globe, the local mobile operator, is down.  At least, I'm assuming it's down because no …

Last night my wife and I had dinner in Tampines and after eating we decided to walk around the mall a bit.  Tampines 1 is still fairly new and we haven't been there often, so I still enjoy doing a little window shopping.Plus, there's Teadot, which was my first stop.  I wanted to sit down and relax for a bit after just eating so I ordered a Cookie Monster's Fav tea, …

Back in January, when talk of putting body scanners in airports was running at full steam, I posted my opinion on the whole matter, which is, in short that it's a horrible idea that offers up way too many opportunities for abuse of the system by less than ethical employees and the government. I pointed out how accurately the body scanners portray people's forms and how some …

While several of our countrymen were waiting to be rescued, Mikey Arroyo, the son of that Malacanang bitch was photographed buying liquor in Rustans in Katipunan. MAGSAMA KAYO NG NANAY MO, KUPAL KA!!!via Grachelle BravoFrom everything I've heard I don't have much faith in politicians in the Philippines. They're nothing but a bunch of crooks that steal money from the people …

When Ion Mall first opened downtown I took a look through it.  Well, it wasn't exactly when it opened, but it was close.  Maybe a week later.  I came in from the ground level and went up a few floors and poked around a bit, but I wasn't that impressed.  Most of the stores are high end like Giorgio Armani, and other crap that I don't care to know the name …

A few days ago I wrote a post about how LTA had told Park-a-Lot developer, NiiDees, that his wildly popular iPhone app could no longer access real-time parking information from garages. The reasons cited were that the information leased to LTA was only allowed to be shown on its site, and not through iPhone apps. They also said that they would consider leasing the …
