reCaptcha Plugin + Cbox

I have added two features into the nowhere blog, though I won’t call them improvements, since the blasted “reCaptcha” plugin for WordPress didn’t seem to work very well * special apologies to Jon *.

A little frustrating for my detractors and also the guys who wanted a say at the dismal behaviour and attitude of teenagers these days. Makes you wonder if our own elders and parents had entertained the thought of gassing us when we were kids, no? Heh. And thanks to re’Crap’tcha, I now have sitting in my mails, several complaints from a number of other people who are unable to enter their comments. * sigh *

Anyway, that’s why I have put in cbox. And this isn’t an improvement either because it defeats the very purpose of the reCaptcha plugin, i.e. to reduce the spam. It now basically throws the gates wide open for any single-cellular escapees from a patri-dish to make their points too.

Still, that doesn’t mean some of those un-educated pea-brains can now post with impunity or spam my blog as they like. Like I have said in my earlier post, if you shit on my blog, I will wipe it clean just like it’s dog poo at the corridor outside my door.

So, if you cannot spell (or deliberately do not want to spell correctly or write like you SMS); if you are disrespectful – especially when you are fxxking kid whose freaking public transport concessionary fare and education are subsidised by a taxpayer like me – I will just yank your comments from the cbox, because until you start earning your own money and contribute to the productivity of this country, your puny parasitic existence deserves no further attention – than what I am giving you now – until you have proven otherwise.

Well, you losers who lost the Youth.sg competition should learn one thing from Zoe Tay, and that is ‘swallow’. And I am talking about your pride, not your boyfriend’s / girlfriend’s body fluids, though I suspect you would be hard pressed to spell saliva, phlegm or semen correctly even on a good day when your minds are not all that stuckup.

So good day for now, since I have make my rules clear. If any of you – especially some creature called The Hen That Never Perished – need a thesarus to come up with better words at insult, or a dictionary to learn how to spell, a good online one is available here. Above which, I suspect a booked called ‘HTML for Dummies’ and a new keyboard without a broken shift / capslock key would help her a lot too.

And no, the thesarus is not a relative of the pink Barnie.

Anyway, there are just too many of the morons for me to smite at one go, so can you scheissekopfen please take a number? When he has time, Dr. Grievous will attend to you untermenschen one at a time. But only once… unless you are willing to pay for another session so he can give you a detailed psycho-analysis, allowing you to discover just what a spectacular portion of maternal copulating faecal material you have always been.

Until then, you can say whatever on your blog * yawn *. I maybe informed you have a lot to counter what I say but I just love my eyes too much to not want to hurt them. The prospect of lowering my I.Q. by a horrendous 20% figuring out all that bad… erm.. whatever is too much to bear. Was whatever put up by the hen on my cbox, which I wiped, English? Even Singlish is way superior and my god-niece born about 2 weeks ago was a lot of more intelligible because her one syllable wails carries more meaning.

After all, it would mean one of the following meanings: poo, food, discomfort, want attention, and she is a joy to watch.


*And change to 0 to o, O bold adventurers!

Friday night at the Esplanade…

My church friends decided to have a night’s off at the Esplanade on Friday evening and after dinner at City Hall, we went to the Esplanade to look at the art pieces on display there and also listened to / view some of the performances.

Here are the few pictures of what was there with my Nokia 7390. The first three were of the visual arts on display. The images were all created with ONE continuous line, with none of them intersecting one another. The remaining three were of a group of South Korean performing artists making music with parts of cars and simple every day objects like plastic containers and bottles.

All in all, it’s an enjoyable night.

Asian Civilisation Museum

I went to the Asian Civilisation Museum around 3pm today to view the Beauty of Asia Exhibits and and I wasn’t even aware that it’s International Museum Day!

What does International Museum Day mean to me? That simply means, admission is FREE – whippeee!! – for ALL museums today, worldwide! And so, I get to view all the exhibits for free when normally I would need to pay $8.

I didn’t take a lot of photos, because we were not sure if we are allowed to do so. It was very much later when we saw tourist snapping away, that we realised that well, unless it is explicitly forbidden – where there is a ‘no photo’ symbol on the exhibits themselves – we can take photos. By then it was too late, we were down to the last exhibit hall on South Asia.

Anyway, the photos are blurry because I turned off the flash feature on the camera. Somehow I didn’t see anyone taking photos with the flash on and I decided to do the same. Unfortunately that automatically turns on the ‘slow shutter’ feature on the camera, and thus, when my hands aren’t steady, the photos comes up blurry. * sigh *

But all in all, it was a worthwhile trip, even if I had paid $8 for it. However, the exhibits are a little too few, when compared to what I have seen in the Shanghai Museum. But again we really can’t expect much when these exhibits are sometimes donated, or brought in from overseas. I’m just grateful I get to see the few which are there.

Chel-ski 1 : 0 ManUre

Didier Drogba (116)

Yes! That’s right!! Any day ManUre lose is a good day for me!!! And the feeling is even better than striking the first prize of 4-D!!!

This is fresh from Soccer Net: Chel-ski have beaten ManUre 1-0 in the FA Cup final with a Didier Drogba goal in extra-time to complete an FA Cup and Carling Cup double.

So there. Carling Cup: Zilch. FA Cup: Zilch.

Just a miserable EPL Champion. And they got it not because they were better that Chel-ski, but simply because all the other teams ‘bway kan’ and Chel-ski was just down on its luck.

That’s not forgetting – Champions League: Zilch.

Taiwan F-5F Crash

It is a sad day when I read the news that 2 SAF soldiers were killed in Taiwan after a Taiwanese F-5F fighter jet plunged into a storeroom in an army camp situated in Hukou of the Hsinchu Prefecture of Taiwan, R.O.C.

I spent a year of my NSF life in Hukou Camp back between 1993 – 1994, back when Ex. Starlight was an open military secret. (By ‘open military secret’ I mean that many knew that Singapore sent our NSF and Operationally Ready NSmen for training there, but none of us were allowed to talk about the details. Neither will I talk about them now.)

Back then, the Taiwanese people were more friendly and the warmth and friendship offered by the Taiwanese people is something I can never forget.

Between 1998 – 2005, I was also in the same camp for overseas ICT with my Operationally Ready NS unit regularly. But when I returned in 1998, things were very much different and the shops outside the camp were different and much of the people I knew back in 93 – 94 were gone. It was also a much unfriendlier place, perhaps because of Singapore’s political stand on the matter of ‘One China’. Though the people were not hostile, Hukou just seemed strange to me, but maybe that’s because I have been away for a good 5 years.

Whatever the case is, I liked Taiwan, perhaps because I spent my early twenties there and I have friends in Taiwan whom I still contact via SMS or MSN at times. I almost always boasts to my Singaporean friends that Taipei is like my second home because I knew it like the back of my hand. After all, I never had a problem getting around Taipei.

Until now, I still would wish that the two sides of the Straits of Taiwan would settle their differences peacefully because I couldn’t imagine, nor could I bear to see a land I had learn to love be ravaged by war.

That is perhaps why I am forever critical of the current ruling party in Taiwan, who never seem to put the well being of the Taiwanese people as their primary objective, but spent much time bickering over those meaningless political ideals. That being said, I also do not really agree with the opposition KMT in delaying the passing of the bill to purchase certain new military equipment.

I wondered, if the Taiwanese had gotten replacements of F-16C/Ds, perhaps the F-5F that crashed would have been retired, and this might not had happened. It is my sincere wish that their politicians would look past their petty differences and do what is necessary for the well being of their people.

From an ex-Hukou permanent staff, my heart goes out to the families of the SAF servicemen who have lost their loved ones in Hukou, and I prayed that those who are injured will get well soon.
