Singapore Cops In Unwarranted Penetrations

Remember what PM Lee Hsien Loong said at the 377A debate (on why oral & anal sex between heterosexuals must be legalised but not any sex between homosexuals… personally I’m still not sure why it was so important to all those anal heterosexuals to get 377 revoked. I mean, it’s been a long time since [...]

On the show that earned the $15 000 fine…

The programme was first highlighted by a Bennie Cheok who wrote to the press complaining that “the absence of the opposite gender in the family nucleus will, no doubt, leave young viewers bewildered” and urged the broadcaster to “be more selective.”
In Bennie Cheok’s convoluted language, he/she is really saying it’s better to lie to ‘young [...]

Assessment Time

(Warning: skittish unedited ditsy reflection post. Read at your own risk)
Which is what tends to happen around birthdays right?
I didn’t have time around the actual day. Excuse: I’ve been learning to use new phone, trying out new running shoes & cross trainers (my extra wide but small sized men’s shoes are hard to find here. [...]

DOG KILLER INVITED TO REPEAT ‘ART’

If you want to see what this man calls art, see here. Note all the dog food patterns on the walls around the dog that was tied there to starve to death.
In 2007, the ‘artist’ Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, took a dog from
the street, tied him to a rope in an art gallery, and starved him [...]

Busy But Good…

Reading Twyla Tharp in an attempt not to be too rooted in one discipline…
Reading Rachel Rosenthal because my discipline is my discipline…
Love them both incredibly in different ways!!!
Am terrified of them both too!
Discovered I was too late to sign up for editing workshop organised by readtheselips because I’m probably the only writer who doesn’t understand [...]

Underground Artists

Was feeling down for a couple of days–teetering on the brink of a cold but managed to fight it off without actually falling in… think maintaining a (very very short) daily practice helped.
But this is where ‘believers’ don’t think anything further needs to be said & nothing will convince the rest, so…
Of course frequent swigs [...]

Dog Dilemna

Walked a very nice 2 year old Jack Russell (called ‘Russell’ for a change, instead of ‘Jack’ ;) at SPCA this morning. But ran into a moral dilemma on our return. A man was there, looking for the adoption area. He looked very poor (okay, sorry–I’m making a judgement based on clothes, cleanliness–just pointing out my [...]

Protest Olympic Sponsors

Now the Chinese are upset that the world doesn’t see them as living up to “the Olympic ideals of peace and harmony.”
For me it’s not just Tibet & Falun Gong (described by their China’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman as an ‘anti-humanity, anti-society and anti-science evil cult organization, and was responsible for many cruel killings and [...]
