Six teams for ABL

Official release in the news today is that 6 teams from Asean will be joining the inaugural ABL in September. The teams announced are Barracudas from Brunei, Kuala Lumpur Dragons, Philippine Patriots, Thailand Tigers and one of last season's match up Satria Muda BritAma from Indonesia and last but not least is your Singapore Slingers.

I do hope there is demand to watch these teams especially Brunei. Anyway top four teams will compete in the playoffs. This will be a long road ahead to emulate the NBA, hopefully more teams join to compete and expand this league into an Asian one and raises the standard overall.

Drinking is good

I do not have to stress the fact drinking is good for health. So says in Scotland that whiskey is the water of life, and this Australian newspaper article about relating drinking to a better cognitive function in aging years.



On a topic of alcohol, this refreshing video of Absolut vodka's ad is nice.

Don't click

Anyway LTA called me back and said, that seating capacity does not include driver. Wow anyway mystery solved.

Another mystery awaits here. Do not click this link. Just don't. Curiosity kills the cat.

Petrolhead quiz time

Made a 1800-CALL LTA call and posed a question back to LTA who got me puzzled when they drop me a notice for upcoming vehicle inspection.



What passenger car in Singapore only seats 3? Mind you, my ride is a legit 4 door Japanese vehicle. Oh unless LTA thinks I own this car.

Still waiting for LTA to call me back, apparently it stumped the lady on the end of the line - she needed a help line.
