Straits Times podcast: Bloggers on blogging


(ST Graphic) Next issue: Reading blogs can get you in trouble too

mrbrown and myself provided a fabulously fresh perspective on this exciting new subject on Thursday when Jolene, an intern with the Straits Times, came and watched us eat lunch, drink tea and talk for an hour about how teachers are too thin-skinned, and how students nowsaday dunno how to suan teachers without getting into trouble. (Tip: Don’t go to that Junior College lah!)

Jolene then went back to SPH, edited out her own voice (poor thing), and put some chick’s one on (after telling us it was Arnold Gay who was gonna be interviewing us after listening to our answers), and voila, y’know, there’s a three-minute podcast for your listening pleasure. Our own version of the interview will be on a new episode of the mrbrown show. Stay tuned. Meantime, listen to the Slanted Straits Times one:

Squatting Matilda

Reservist Briefing
Mr Miyagi receives his medal for ‘Best Army Blogger’

Army briefings are seldom exciting, and yesterday’s one was no different. My unit mates all asked me, “Are you gonna blog this?” or, “Are you gonna blog about this?”, to which I replied, “No lah! So boring, blog what fuck?”

Of course I was kidding. “So boring”, but surely still can blog about it.

Today’s Army story comes by way of an anecdote shared by my platoon mate, in response to the safety and environmental briefing preparing us for Ex Wallaby 2005.

Our Safety Officer (you can spot him – he’s the one with the yellow helmet) told us that among the hazards we’ll be facing in Survivor: Outback Ex Wallaby would be kangaroos and wallabies, because when threatened, they can jump, kick, bite and cause nasty injuries to personnel’s personals.

Platoon mate’s anecdote:

“Last time Ex Wallaby that time, I go and pang sai lah, and usually, I go and shit that time, I go far far away. Because I don’t want my platoon mates to come and jee siao (disturb) me. Because when they shit that time, I also go and jee siao them.

So, I shit that time, I go far far away lah.

So, I shitting and smoking lah, then I look up, got seven kangaroos looking at me. Wah lan eh, I scared to move lah! Because the Safety Officer say, when we see kangaroo, don’t make sudden movement. Because they can attack you.

So I squatting there and smoking. I look at the kangaroo, the kangaroo look at me. Wah lan eh, I squat there damn long.”

And of course we had to ask him, “And then what happened?”

Platoon mate’s killer kangaroo line:

“Then they hop away lor”.
