Why I am not 100% sure. Today is a very unreal day. Very Very depressed and there is no real good reason for it. Went out to dinner last night with a co-worker. We went to the Boat Quay. Which is overpriced and touristy, but still a lot of fun none the less. Stopped at… Continue reading I'm still here……for what reason I do not know.

More on the port deal..
With apologies to William Shakespere, here is Marc Antony’s take on the P&O port deal. I watched the movie version Julius Caesar the other night and this came to mind. (Brando is awesome in the movie, get it and watch it sometime): Friends, Americans, countrymen, lend me your ears; I come to bury Western owned… Continue reading More on the port deal..
Quick post from heaven……..
Just a short note to say how nice it is to be back here in Singapore again. I think I am finally warm for the first time in about 9 weeks. Did work this morning, bought the S.O. the camera I should have bought in December, (she’s still pissed I arranged this side trip on… Continue reading Quick post from heaven……..
A different departure
Out the door in a few minutes to catch the train to Narita. Journeying down to my favorite spot on the planet, Singapore. Usually I’m excited when I travel, this morning I’m apprehensive. I don’t know why……..perhaps it just goes along with that sense of foreboding I’ve been having that 2006 is just going to… Continue reading A different departure
Musings and Figure Skating babes!
OK, OK, enough feeling sorry for myself. Time to buck up, dig in and get back to the normal buffoonry…………I recognize that there are stupid people in the world. I choose not to be one of them. Looking around the news its clear there are lots of stupid people still out there. Consider: Arabs- Can’t… Continue reading Musings and Figure Skating babes!
Under the weather……
No post yesterday for a couple of reasons. Stupefication and sheer amazement at how you can tell someone something 10 times, in 10 different ways and they go ahead and do something really stupid……… Utter astonshiment at trying to do a good thing for the people you work for have them repay you with not… Continue reading Under the weather……
The check is in the mail…….
My campaign contribution check that is. A first for me, I’ve never, ever, contributed to a political campaign before. But I jumped for joy today when I saw this: Too bad I’m not a Virginia resident…(I’m a resident of “No State Income Tax USA”). Just got back from putting my campaign contribution in the mail.… Continue reading The check is in the mail…….
Seeing the light………
Lex , as he so often does, has very adeptly opened up a can of worms by pointing his readers to an article from the New York Times Sunday Magazine by (former) neo-con Francis Fukuyama ( whose name means lucky mountain in Japanese…) has finally seen the light. In a long, but well worth the… Continue reading Seeing the light………
It always goes down hill.
When last we met: Not to worry. No one was there on the way out. Homeward bound we went. I was really happy and content. S.O’s friends dropped us off and I was looking forward to a night of sweet bliss with S.O. Then my cell phone went off……………. No good day goes unpunished and… Continue reading It always goes down hill.
