AMK Hub’s Cathay is far from finished. But so far it looks good. The main concession stand looks impressive and the seats are quite comfy. Trust Cathay to do a good job, aye?
SURF’S UP, though not as cute as Happy Feet, does entertain. It doesn’t bore me to death like a certain March of the Penguins, which unfortunately, many beg to differ.

I kind of like Chicken Joe, voiced by Mr Dynamite – Jon Heder. Chicken on drugs is funny. Chicken on drugs surfing is whacked! The animation is wonderful and the show is full of subtle, witty humour. Again, I don’t understand how kids can understand. The words are so…adult And unless your child is a surfer-dude kind of thing, this is definitely will be fun. Otherwise, be prepared to answer questions.
Hmmmm… Is it just me or do I sense quite a few perverted and sexual innuendos in there?
See, I tell you it’s a good show ;)
Right. (AMK Hub Cathay)Virgin no more. Both it and I will definitely have a long and close relationship soon. I will part with more money and it can feel the warmth of my ass often. Ah, don’t you love the theatres?
Enough enough.
Was chatting with Sharinah yesterday and as usual, she updated me with her perils of work. Unlike most of us, she has to deal with ugly Singaporeans every day and some really drive her over the (h)edge sometimes.
I realise Singaporeans always like to use this on the police: “We pay taxes and we give you salary!” I am not a police but ..what the hell? What do you mean by that? You make it sound like cops don’t pay taxes and that they are depending on your money in order to live and therefore, they have to serve you blindly? Have to answer to your stupid demands (eg: “There’s a baby snake in my garden, please take it away!” “My neighbor is having renovations and it is disturbing my afternoon rest. Can you tell them to shut up?” “Why must I pay the pest buster when you can do it for free? Come down please!”) when they are busy protecting the lives of others?
Yes, Sharinah is my friend and she is a cop but no…my comments are not really lopsided cause I have other friends (non-cops obviously) making some weird comments. The other day after Night Safari, Grace, Clara and I saw a police car at the McDonalds’ drive-thru. The girls seemed quite amuse to see policemen buying food. Think one of them said, “Shouldn’t they be catching thieves? We pay taxes, leh!”
I really didn’t see the relation between catching thieves and paying taxes but what she said ruffled me a bit. Is this the attitude of Singaporeans towards policemen? And customs officer, cause the father does get a lot of crap from Singaporeans who try to smuggle (and fail) excess raw meat, chewing gums and other prohibited items.
“What is wrong with cops buying food?”
“How can? They are on duty.”
“Then they don’t need to eat?”
“Eat at the station!”
“Yeah…but the food need to be bought, right?”
And if they are to go back station, change clothes and then go buy food, I am sure their meal time is over. Come on, give them a break. They work for more than 12 hours a day and we, the public, certainly don’t make it any easier for them. My heart goes out to all dear policemen and policewomen.
And that is why I can never be like them. I don’t think I am able to handle crap from the public. I don’t think I can be nice tending to silly demands and petty complains. And most of all, I don’t think I can handle when the public say, “Why are you so rude? You are a policeman and I give you your salary!”
You want to know where your salary goes to?
Check out the floating pontoon built for National Day and remember to inhale the coming Formula One dust cause you are certainly paying for that.
Oh, don’t forget The Singapore Flyer! Even though it is a foreign-invested project, don’t tell me the Singapore Govt has nothing to do with it, right? And do you know that as the construction is going on, the govt is not charging them anything? Yes, it is rent-free!
See your money up there?
Apparently the fund was not enough and had to be sourced from 2 German banks.
Wah lao…if not enough money then don’t make lah!!
A thousand times goodnight, tax-payers.
P/S: Me? Paying tax? Yeah right.
P/P/S: The siblings are not sleeping cause they are having a ball of a time finding their celebrity look-alikes. Kids.
