Today we went to celebrate Carmen cum Guang Hao bithday...I rush over to Alexander in a cab. The thing that is CARZY is the CAB DRIVER!
Usually when u take a cab it will go at 60-80km/hr. I got up the cab, told him that i wanna go this place and that i was my friend birthday so i ask him to go the fastest way.The he say that the onli way is AYE, so i say okie lor...
Then he started off quite well, at 70kn/hr then when he reach the mouth if AYE,he started to switch gear, like playing Daytona like that, no kick one!
Then he push the acceleration, and he push and push and push....
The meter kept increasing and get higher and higher and higher, till it reaches 120km/hr! 120km/hr! and he was good, he maintain that speed all the way till the end of AYE... This is the first time i even move my butt in a car when it turns, he didn't even release the panel lor, not even thinking of braking...Siao one!
I reach Queensway from Jurong Point in only 15mins... Record breaking Chan Kim Lee( name of taxi driver)

BREITBART.COM - Senate OKs Border Fence, Backs CitizenshipThe Senate agreed to give millions of illegal immigrants a shot at U.S. citizenship and backed construction of 370 miles of triple- layered fencing along the Mexican border Wednesday, but prospects for legislation clearing Congress were clouded by a withering attack against President Bush by a prominent House Republican. "Regardless of what the president says, what he is proposing is amnesty," said Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis. the lawmaker who would lead House negotiators in any attempt to draft a compromise immigration bill later this year. I am pleased that the fencing passed the Senate, a sign that a deal can be worked out. But Mr. Sensenbrenner needs a little more common sense. The tough rhetoric may sound nice in sound bites back home, but will not help his cause. If he wants more secure borders, he needs to drop the phony tough talk, and back up and figure out what is possible to pass as a final bill. Remember, you can always pass tougher legislation later. And half a loaf IS better than nothing.


Booked a $320 win last night. The confidence is starting to return, though it's a bit nerve-wracking to have an all-in called by a cally-wally on a board of J-T-2-9 when all you have is an overpair. My $320 win couldn't hold a candle to SoxLover, who turned $300 into over $1,000 in an hour and ten minutes by catching every single draw he flopped and getting paid on all of them. Must be nice.At least my singing at the poker table annoyed him. Have I mentioned how much I like to sing at the poker table? Only about a dozen times, I think -- but I've never mentioned how annoying most other people find it. The implied tilt odds are through the roof.Karaoker, kids. It's the sport of the future.
