The lowest requirement of labour with the minimum requirement of technology.
This Saturday at MakDauds, we discussed the origins of the term “then you know”. While apparently simple, Azmi appeared perplexed by its origins and what exactly it means.
“Then you know” is added for emphasis at the end of a threat, for example “I punch your face then you know!” What is less clear, of course, is what exactly it is that we’re supposed to “know”.
If you’re reading this for the first time, there is a very stupid story behind why this category is called MakDauds.
You see, we used to hang out at this coffee shop at the junction of Changi Road and Frankel Avenue called Daud. It had maintained the Dawood, and subsequently Daud, name through several changes of ownership and had been Frankel Daud Seafood Restaurant since we were in secondary school. This despite the fact that for many years it did not actually sell any seafood.
Carrie Underwood prevails…
Did she win deservedly? Or did Bo Bice lose unfairly? Debate if you care to do so…
It looks like UsDudes.com has more competition in the form of usdudes.net. I have to say I… can’t really tell what this website is about. It appears to be some sort of evangelical Christian site, but aimed at the Dukes of Hazzard crowd.
These usdudes sites seem to be coming out of the woodwork to compete with us but fret not, more content is coming soon. We’re still number one.
Hello there.
I’ve decided to take on the responsibility of reviewing Najib’s posting history thus far, in the style of Television Without Pity. For the sake of the children, of course. No task is too great when it’s being done for the children.
Note that it was over a month before his next post. Thus, it was definitely not “real soon”. Whether it was “something good” is debatable.
We bid an emotional farewell to Vonzell Soloman, the mail gal from Florida, who showed a lot of heart and personality throughout this season of American Idol and was often praised by judge Randy Jackson for being the most improved singer. Last night she delivered three challenging songs so effortlessly and with such professionalism that it was hard to see why America voted the least for her. Not to say that the rocker and the country chick were lousy - they were equally spectacular in their own elements. Alabama son Bo Bice sang with charisma and conviction while Oklahoma farm girl Carrie Underwood took flight with her saccharine yet powerful vocals.
The tribe has spoken: Tom Westman, a fireman from Brooklyn, NY, was declared the official winner of Survivor: Palau and the $1m prize money on Sunday night, beating finalist Katie Gallagher, a radio ad saleswoman from Merced, California. In the final episode of the series’ 10th instalment, Westman displayed grace under fire during an emotionally-charged final Tribal Council, while Gallagher crumbled under her own complacency while being interrogated by the jury of seven ousted contestants.
Stay at the Hotel Raizan
I posted this in the comments section for the boyband interview feature, but I think it’ll get more responses here.
So we now know that 1) Raizan really is Japanese, and 2)we’ll always have a place to stay when we’re in Osaka.
Welcome to the Hotel Raizan Kitakan
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel Raizan Kitakan
Any time of year, you can find it here
After a tumultous season of backstabbing, deceit, squabbles, shaky alliances and taxi-stealing moments, the sweet and popular married couple Uchenna and Joyce have emerged as winners of The Amazing Race. Having had to begin the final leg of the race without a cent to their name, Uchenna and Joyce battled their way to the finish line, beating Survivors Rob and Amber and the constantly-bickering Ex-POW/Beauty pageant queen duo Ron and Kelly. The turning point arrived when Uchenna and Joyce managed to get onboard a plane at Puerto Rico that barely left for Miami with Rob and Amber already firmly strapped to their seats. The Survivor couple, almost probably counting their million-dollar eggs before they hatch, were stupefied upon discovering their rivals entering the plane at the eleventh hour. Ultimately, it wasn’t going to be one in the pocket for them. With that development, he three-way race of the last leg whittled down to a two-way fight instead, as Ron and Kelly were unofficially tossed out of the competition having missed that flight to Miami, a result of a costly directional blunder on the roads of Puerto Rico. Blah blah blah blah and to cut the long story short…… Who says that nice guys always finish last?
…so I’m back
from outer space…
ok, maybe not really but it’s been a good one month plus
