The Wagers Of Sin

It had to happen someday. Chelski back from two goals down to win in the 87th, and Man U toothless against West Ham, reducing the lead down to two points - Rooney's got to start pulling his weight soon, what with a fat new £35 million contract. As a consolation, that should drive some of the glory hunters over to the blue side. To make things worse, Grilled Birds lost to Herron 0-6 at home with my main men on inadequate form, and then wm's Lina Inverse got a Divine Rapier and two Aegises in an inhouse game we should have taken. Zzz. Well, some days you're the dog, and some days you're the lamppost.

Backed up all the Imageshack-hosted images on this blog, in the unlikely event that it ever goes under; Reinstalled Apache and Perl on my computer in preparation for webgame development in the near future. Heard a lot of interesting tidbits I never knew (or forgot) about my fellow 4O-cum-jobbers at work. Believe it or not, one of them once submitted an obituary for a Chinese newspaper article review assignment (剪报). And his sister submitted an NTUC Fairprice advertisement. Nice to know I have such original pals :P

Spotted a letter in Today newspaper which followed on an earlier letter that I missed, on Singapore's three-letter acronym. Actually, I don't mind it at all. Counters our stodgy image somewhat. I can almost imagine replying to the standard "Where do you live" query on SEP someday: "Oh, I'm living in SIN". The late Cardinal Sin may empathize.

It's not as if we have a monopoly on funny country codes either - we CAN not have a BAN or BAR on them, ESP as it's such a sensitive BIZ. HAI, DEN what KEN we do? BAH. They're seldom appropriate, with the exception being the declaration on the back of the Brazillian beach volleyball gals' tops.

I saved the best for last. You, yes you, won the TIME magazine Person of the Year award. Don't forget it the next time you write a resume. At this rate, the Alvins will soon be the premier global achievement.
