Re-tyre, not Retire

3 reasons why I should re-tyre & not retire:

(1) Don't want to turn into a fatso
(2) Likely to be bored to death
(3) Don't want Alzheimer for company
(I rather mahjong kakis)

Bridgestone, GoodYear, here I come!

Vanity, at what Price?

Cost me close to S$500 to have 3 tiny moles removed by laser from the forehead of my 20-year old metrosexual son at the National Skin Clinic.

They charge on a per mole basis! Procedure took a mere 5 minutes.

I wanna train to be a plastic surgeon in my next life.

On The Bus or Off The Bus

Once upon a time, a newly-integrated organisation chief shared her vision, passion & drive for a united team , using the following quote (in red) as the high - light of her inaugural preso:
“There are going to be times when we can’t wait for somebody
Now, you’re are either on the bus or off the bus.
If you're on the bus, and you get left behind, then you''ll find it again.
If you're off the bus in the first place - then it won't make a damn."
Ken Kesey
How many of us know that Kesey was a hippy of the 60's?
The origin of this interesting methaphor of "Being on the Bus" can be found here -

Back to the chief's bus with everyone on board. Hallucinating drug trip, it was not! Enroute, many outside the sista & brudder-hoods cryptically checked "how many or who's left?". Some self-styled clairvoyants predicted "bus going bust".

Well, as they say, it's now history, or rather her-story.

Hello Golden Years

I am preparing for retirement. When the time comes, I will have limited income stream from part-time jobs (ie if I can find any), or if self-employed, even no or negative income for a while.

Blogging is one avenue where I hope to generate income to see me through the golden years. Google AdSense is a start. Opening a blogshop is also on the plan.

It's also a means to help keep my mental faculty alert and ward off Alzheimer's disease.

I am also opening up this blog to some close associates to share their stories, photos, experiences, jokes, thoughts, views, comments, rants, etc, on anything under the sun, & to make for more interesting read.
