OK, the winner of the Kumar Stripped Bare Ticket Contest is onewheel, who correctly guessed that Kumar was a Signaler (Sorry, chainsawieldinun, onewheel was closer).

To be slightly more accurate, he was a combat signaler in an infantry unit.

Congratulations, onewheel! Enjoy the show!

Kumar Tix going fast – get yours here for free

The people at Dream Academy tell me that tickets for Kumar’s show are selling out, and that there are only single seats left for some categories.

So I’ll remind you all that there are two tickets here for seats next to each other, for the first person to correctly guess Kumar’s vocation in NS.

(Hints: 1. Vocation, not unit or formation or arm. 2. He was in the Army. 3. He was PES A/B).

Pregnancy brains

No, I’m not talking about Naomi and her pregnancy hormone induced faux pas. Because even if I did and she read it here, she would have killed me so it wouldn’t be funny anymore.

It’s the waiting staff at restaurants in Singapore. They keep asking if Naomi (who is now 8 months pregnant) would like a glass of wine to go with her dinner.

Right up till last week at Pasta Fresca, where what looked like the captain or lead waiter asked if she’d like a beer, right after he asked if we’d like to sit in the smoking section, which I thought had been completely outlawed since January.

I hope this is limited to the F&B business. I don’t think I’d like real estate agents selling us houses under power lines.
