Spotted this banner along the junction of Queen Victoria Street and Des Voeux Road in Central. At least people in Hong Kong can voice out if they think they are screwed. How about you, Singaporeans?

Cathay Pacific sex scandal

Airborne Sex, Mile High Club, or whatever. What's the big deal with that?

The bigger scandal is not the sex itself. According to sources (as usual, unnamed), the air stewardess involved in the recent Cathay Pacific airborne sex scandal has either resigned or been dismissed. No big surprise here. Only thing is, the pilot on the receiving end of the oral job is reportedly still on Cathay Pacific's payroll. Apparently, the airline's management either failed or simply couldn't find concrete evidence that the pilot in question is the one, despite the fact that he has made a police report admitting that the leaked photos are indeed his. Their excuse? The appearance and clothing of the man in the photo is not clear so his identity cannot be determined. Wow... I can understand if people have trouble putting two and two together, but we're talking about someone who admitted to the police that he has been caught with his pants down, right?

Wait, there's more!

If you think the idea of an inflight blow job is far-fetched, Ryanair's controversial chief Michael O'Leary actually promises this service in business class. Watch the video below to hear it from the horse's mouth. As befitting any budget airline, prices can go up and down and up and down (ok, you get the picture).

危机=商机?

Many foreign businessmen and commentators have observed that the word for crisis in Chinese consists of the characters for danger (危) as well as opportunity (机). Their point is that, unlike pessimistic Westerners, the Chinese sees crises as opportunities for improvement. However, the etymology of 危机 does not support this popular wisdom. In most context, 机simply means “moment”, as in "dangerous moment".

Singapore presidential election

Since every Tan, Tan & Tan jostling for power these days seems to be fighting for photo-op riding MRT/bus or saving damsel/enfant terrible in distress, I presume the rest of the minions in Singapore should be concerned about being taken for a ride.

So here's a video dedicated to the privilege few who are the descendants of the Pappies.



The message is clear: If you wanna ride, don't ride the white horse. As addictive as the MIWs might have been, white horses are bad for your health, if only for the simple reason that they will lull you into a false sense of security.
