Can you eat lunch for $1?

Just had a plateful of “spaghetti” (actually noodles with broiled chicken pieces), a can of coke and a bottle of water for lunch. Grand total of 3.70 ringgits (or $1.01 USD).

Quick Update

Well I’ve now been in Singapore for ~5 days and just realized I’ve provided no updates. So here’s a few random experiences/thoughts of my trip so far.

After landing at DFW I had about 20 minutes to catch my flight to Tokyo. Thankfully, as I exited the plane a women was waiting for me […]

Lost

I lost February! I think that’s the first time since the inception of my measly blog that I missed an entire month. Dang it. Failure.

I Need a Man

Okay so here’s what happened.
I get up (relatively) early this morning to work on my lawn. I get through the front with no problems…it looks great. Freshly mowed, edged, flower beds cleaned out, hedges trimmed. Nice. Then to the backyard. I weed eat one strip along the fence […]

Nerd Alert - Consider Yourself Warned

Last fall I purchased a new notebook, the Dell XPS M1330 and let me tell you it’s a great piece of hardware. I have, however, been pretty frustrated with Windows Vista. Granted there are some okay features but it just seems really unstable and I’ve had to reinstall twice after discovering corrupt programs […]

Apologies to RSS Users

My apologies to you if you use RSS to read my blog. I just upgraded my version of wordpress and in the process merged a couple of databases with old blog posts. Soo…if you now see a bunch of old, unread posts in your feed you can just mark them as read and […]
