Just spent some time at my folks reading last week’s chinese evening papers, catching up on the suicide case of a Mr JS Tan.
The gist of the case for Tan is that he is $1,000 in arrears of his utilities, town council and children’s school fees, went out to look for money and decided to [...]
The haze has been hanging around for what? Two weeks now? Sometimes, you try to be the good citizen and lower your carbon emission by walking home, and what happens is you get dirty air in return.
Today, I decided to even things out a little by puffing my smog as I take that walk back [...]
I run my own business and as a result, had the opportunity to coach my colleagues in the course of their work. Over a decade now, I’ve observed most adults simply don’t read enough to catch up. Sometimes, it seems to me that they avoid reading intentionally by filling up time with TV, movies, shopping [...]

There’s really no need to hurry into anything, I guess.
I just finished reading iWoz. I think it has changed me at a fundamental level.

I’m driving my 6th car now. I’m not saying this to brag but to stress how utterly stupid and wasteful I am previously. I’ve just made a decision to sell my Toyota when I run out it’s road tax and insurance sometime Feb 2007.
By then I hope someone will bring this into Singapore. Isn’t it [...]
