Qualifications Of Men: KBS Youth Choir

I have blogged about the Korean variety show "Qualifications of Men" (aka Qualities of Men) from KBS two years ago on my previous blog.

The members are faced with another choir challenge to take part in the KBS National Choir Festival.

Unlike the previous choir challenge which was opened to anyone within the KBS TV Station, the requirement this time is restricted to those who were born before 1960.

And the irony of it all was that the choir is named the "KBS Youth Choir" even though the members were at least 52 years old.

The recruited members comprised of people from all walks of life including houswives, retirees and even professionals like a company CEO, Doctor, High School Teacher and Professor.

Video: Guard Dog Killed By Delivery Man

A guard dog in Taichung, Taiwan dies after being kicked repeatedly by a delivery man!

Surveillance footage shows Liu, a delivery man, attempting to strike the dog, "Little Tiger" with a box in a threatening manner even though the dog was waving his tail - a sure tell tale sign of his friendliness.

Alarmed by Liu's sudden gesture, "Little Tiger" began prancing around the deliveryman and following him about.

人生最大的遺憾莫過于與親人的生離死別。

當您知道生命即將結束的時候﹐你會跟家人說些什麼？

短片里的爸爸就把想跟女兒所說﹐却来不及讲的話都事先錄在視相里了。

事隔多年﹐女孩終於長大了。

她也錄了一段話給爸爸。

究竟﹐她跟爸爸說了些什麼呢？

達信牛肉面 Thaksin Beef Noodle @ Clementi Central

Thaksin Beef Noodle

How often have you come across a dish that got it's name from a Politician?

Indeed, the name was what truly caught my eye while researching for recommendations of what to eat at Clementi Central.

Nestled in a Halal coffeeshop, Thaksin Beef Noodle sells - as you would have guessed it -  Beef Noodles that is named after Thaksin Shinawatra, the Thai Prime Minister.

Manned by two Malay ladies, the stall offer other Thai dishes like the Pad Thai, Seafood Tom Yum, Seafood Fried Rice and Beef Ball Soup.

I decided to give their signature dish, the Beef Noodles a try after reading reviews online touting it as the next best alternative outside of Thailand!

What I learnt was that the boss acquired the recipe from a Thai thus making this an authentic bowl of Thai Beef Noodles.

Available in four different sizes (Standard, Value, Supreme, Super), I ordered for myself the Supreme bowl which costs $6 and I requested for kway teow instead of noodles.

Boon Kee Wanton Mee @ Clementi Central

Boon Kee Wanton Mee

I stayed in the vicinity of Clementi Central when I was younger and Boon Kee Wanton Mee was what I ate most of the time whenever I accompanied Mum to the wet market. 

That was undoubtedly one of the best Wanton Mee I have ever had and constantly craved for through these years even after having moved to another estate since I was in primary 4.

视频： 超人也問路？

超人配樂版

一位伸直右手正在飞行中的超人突然出现在一辆行驶中的车子窗外。

他靠近车窗，拍打窗户问倒「哥斯达黎加」的首都「圣荷西」怎么去，让车内乘客捧腹大笑。

而坐在副驾的女乘客笑着回答：“往前，再往前”。

超人向她道谢后，就往右飞走了。

仔细一看，原来“超人”是后座乘客从后车窗伸出上半身，模仿超人飞行的动作。

Make It Right For A Better Ride

Giving up space to another makes for a pleasant ride

Being a frequent public transport commuter, I do have my fair share of grouses and horror tales (of inconsiderate behavior) to tell.

However, among all the annoying traits that I have come across on the train, nothing irritates me more than having someone reading the newspapers near me!
