My big fat grapevine tells me not much hap­pened in the news­room at Mediamonopolycorp’s News­ra­dio 938 last night when news broke of the earth­quake, so I’ve had to fill in the blanks a little:

Eh, so how ah, go where eat supper?

Dunno leh, every day eat New­ton sian leh.

*Beep Beep*

Eh, my friend SMS say build­ing shake, ask whether got earth­quake or not?

Har? Earth­quake?

*Beep Beep*

Yah, another one just SMS’d me.

Quick, turn on tv.

*press press… flicker flicker… CNA comes on and shows live report*

Oh no. Really. Earthquake.

So how?

Wait, I check.

*dial dial… buzz buzz… mum­ble mum­ble… nod nod…*

Manager/Producer say no point, we close shop liao, let CNA do the story.

OK, so how ah, go where eat supper?

New­ton lah, where else. Eh, I ask you ah, you renew road tax got pay the radio license or not ah?

I also say. Give the $110 (tv licence) and $27 (car radio licence) to be placed in a blog­gers’ fund, because at least some blog­gers bother to risk life and limb to bring you the news. (link via mr brown via lancer­lord).


Aun­tie, the teh-O too hot, burn my tongue. See lah?

iTunes’ party shuf­fle is play­ing a copy of: Stand­ing In The Door­way — Bob Dylan — Time Out Of Mind, of which I have the orig­i­nal CD and there­fore didn’t steal music.
