Today is Pinky’s birthday. Handsome fella had a good time galloping around the house. He also enjoyed a long massage and pats from his maid. Will post photos tomorrow. 🙂 HAPPY BIRTHDAY PINKY!!
I was quite incensed when I got an email from a London underwriter saying that he is not keen to underwrite contracts governed by Singapore law. What a snooty, ill-informed London born Chinese. Does he not know that Singapore law was derived from English law; that the English appeal courts have cited judgements made by […]
I’ve always felt that knowledge is power and it’s important to be aware of all news, good or bad, so as to make an informed decision. Today however, I concede that sometimes, ignorance is bliss. Jazz has been wanting to get rid of her Ferragamo shoes for some time now (not sure for how long […]
This is what I call brilliance. I received an email from an Indonesia colleague saying that the valuation report I asked for had to be divided into 5 files due to the large size. Sure enough, there were 5 Adobe PDF parts… but all sent in 1 email.
I wished I had an actual photo to show you but I wasn’t home when it happened and even if I was, I think I would’ve been too panicky to take a photo. Horlicks got herself into trouble again. When no one was keeping an eye on her, she managed to jump up onto this […]
Sigh. Not sure what exactly is the matter but MSN doesn’t seem to be accepting web connections via the https port. Managed to get on MSN via imo.im this morning… but after I accidentally disconnected from it, I couldn’t log back on the whole day. https://meebo.com couldn’t work either… till now. Anyway, I wanted to […]

He was assaulted by a cabbie some years back over a taxi licence revocation issue that the cabbie wanted Mr. Seng’s help with, and now some guy who’s mentally unstable splashed kerosene on him […]
Got this from this website. The following were actual announced in church services or appeared in church bulletins. The scouts are saving aluminum cans, bottles and other items to be recyled. Proceeds will be used to cripple children. The outreach committee has enlisted 25 visitors to make calls on people who are not afflicted with […]
Had some internal training this morning via teleconference with our colleagues in HK and USA. During the Q&A, a director from our Corporate Team posed this question: "How long are the data stored in the system?" Sigh. Are the data? How embarrassing to have the only person asking a question from Singapore exhibiting such bad […]
Came across this old photo of Patience and realised how clean and chubby she was back in 2004. Bought in Dec 1997, Patience is 11 years old and currently a little grubby looking. Was searching online for the best way to wash her (to minimise further “weight loss”) and I guess the gentlest way would […]
