Poke-a-sheep - Perhaps the most SCREWED UP game I have ever seen. God, now I feel like eviscerating some sheep in the most gory way possible.

Building Really Annoying Web Sites - Favourite website of singapore schoolgirls

Dog rape attempt goes astray - A Thai man was mauled when he drunkenly tried to rape a dog which fiercely resisted his advances

Total Defence Feature - "The passing of the Act saw anti-NS marches, the most serious by some 300 people at New Bridge Road, Rochore Canal Road near Albert Street and Kim Keat Road. Tear gas shells were used to disperse the crowd and about 13 people were arrested... Today, most Singaporeans accept NS willingly as part of their duty as citizens."
Pity modern Singaporeans are not as spirited, not after 38 years of social engineering. At least they acknowledge the existence of malcontents like me!

At least they tell you the truth now. From the propaganda, you'd think everyone meekly accepted it at the time.

You want to make a protest about some issue? Tear gas + arrests = rest of population cowed.


Someone paid GBP 6.50 to win an auction for nothing? This is a weird world.

One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge - To date no one has even passed the preliminary tests for this, which is why healthy skepticism about such matters is always warranted.

Pickled dragon mystery - A pickled "dragon" that looks as if it might once have flown around Harry Potter's Hogwarts has been found in a garage in Oxfordshire, England.

Women's Urinal (from a Dairy Queen restaurant in Port Charlotte, FL)

Self confessed spasticated lists (quite amusing)


Dr Bob's September 1999 Quiz:

Muslims hold that God has 100 names - the Merciful, the Compassionate, etc; what is unusual about the 100th one of them?

Dr Bob's Answer: The 100th name is not known to mankind. It is, however, known to camels. Hence the snooty expression of the latter beasts.

Some other answer: I'm not even going to try a funny answer to this one. Look what happened to Salman Rushdie.


In defence of lust

"Within the US, the federal government spends about $1m (£574,000) of taxpayers' money annually on abstinence-only programmes of sex education, even though such programmes increase young people's health risks by making furtive and unprotected copulations their only option. Human Rights Watch has issued a report which says that abstinence-only programmes pose a threat to teenagers' health because information they need is denied to them in schools. A quote from a Texas teacher introduces the report: "Before [the abstinence-only programme] I could say, 'If you're not having sex, that's great. If you are, you need to be careful and use condoms.' Boy, that went out of the window." The report notes that federal programmes often lie to children, for example about the efficacy of condoms."
So these silly abstinence-only programs not only don't work, they have the opposite effect. Hah!

Also amusing: "it has long been known that more prostitutes fly into towns hosting Republican conventions than Democratic ones."


My MP3 player arrived back from Hong Kong today. Their customer service is really good - they didn't charge me anything (not even the Fed Ex bill for the return) even though the warranty had expired and my brother in law had lost the warranty card, and the player is decent. Too bad Frontier Labs products don't seem to be sold in Singapore.
