Slingers match up against Slammers

Will be heading down to the match against Thailand Slammers at the Singapore Indoor Stadium this Sunday 31 Oct. This will be an interesting match up as Thailand trashed Satria Muda in a convincing win 84 to 63 on Oct 16 and 76 to 59 against Brunei. So far they have only lost to Philippines Patriots by a close margin.

My pictures of the previous closely matched win (94-93) against Satria Muda can be found here.

So do come down and support your Singapore Slingers and if you fancy a little early Halloween costume party, do come on down in your best scary costumes! We've heard the best-dressed will get to win a MacBook, and the $10,000 challenge will still go on during half-time.

I will be taking photos of "scary" audience this Sunday, so check back here for pictures of the match and see if you got caught on my camera!

Singapore Elections coming

You know elections are coming when SPH does this.

We can even tweet about it!

Test site should be ready very soon.

Am excited about it...possibly my very first time voting as I approach mid-life crisis age!

Almost bought an iPad after watching this

This is ultimate coolness.

A big hint

Sometimes technology of being connected on the move makes us even more disconnected. Perhaps we should all cancel our data plans, lose the smartphones and just revert back to pagers and snail mails. Perhaps being so connected or contactable makes one more liable to forget the people around us? Well, of late, I had fun doing the simple things of carrying lanterns and flying layangs.

Joke for the weekend

Been a while since I posted a joke, here is one for the weekend.

First-year students at Texas A&M Vet school were attending their first anatomy class, with a real dead cow. They all gathered around the surgery table with the body covered with a white sheet.
The professor started the class by telling them, "In Veterinary Medicine it is necessary to have two important qualities as a doctor: The first is that you not be disgusted by anything involving the animal body".
For an example, the Professor pulled back the sheet, stuck his finger in the butt of the dead cow, withdrew it and stuck his finger in his mouth. "Go ahead and do the same thing," he told his students.
The students freaked out, hesitated for several minutes, but eventually took turns sticking a finger in the butt of the dead cow and sucking on it.
When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and said, "The second most important quality is observation. I stuck in my middle finger and sucked on my index finger. Now learn to pay attention. Life's tough, but it's even tougher if you're stupid.."

Google TV

With Starhub having no updates on NBA TV, one can only suck thumb. Well, I can't wait for Google TV to come soon.

Can you spot how many people are in awed of Satria's Holden going up for a block on Slinger's Skinner's attempt?

Well who cares, we won.

Watch this space for more pics soon.
Update: Pictures found here.

Simple engineering

Though I doubt I am getting the iPhone 4, this is one cool piece of simple tool.
And the concept of getting funding to get it built through donations, is again another form of creativity. Click on the link for more details and video of the cool usage.
