Travel dates are 8 to 31 Jan 2013 and 21 Feb to 26 Mar 2013. Neatly skirting the entire Chinese New Year period.
Pisses me off though, I have a flight from Bangkok to Singapore on 23 Feb. This could have saved me about $75.

Blackburn's New Manager
Blackburn's search for a new Manager is quickly reaching ridiculous lengths. But one should really not be surprised given that Shebby Singh is in charge of this search.
Shebby is the bloody idiot who somehow managed to get a pundit job on TV a few years ago and still completely sucked at it. And Blackburn's owners Venky's recently gave him a job as director of football. Just this alone should be enough to prove to Blackburn fans that Venky's know nuts about football. They most likely saw Shebby on ESPN and thought that was a good enough reason to give him the job. At the time though, even my wife thought Shebby was completely full of shit.
The gossip today tells us that Diego Maradona is the latest name to be offered the job. Why not use your newly found miracle job as a way to get in touch with one of the greatest footballers of all time eh?
When I'm made Director at the Singapore Slingers, I'll be getting in touch with Michael Jordan for the coach position.

AVN Adult Entertainment Expo
Well well well. A possible trip to the US looks like it might coincide with the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo 2013 to be held 17-19 January 2013 at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
Daily VIP Passes are at $85 and General Admission Passes are at $65.
I'll only be free on the 19th anyway, so if I do go, I'll most likely spring for a VIP Pass. Some details, such as the parties and stage shows, are still missing from the website. I'll wait for these to be put up before making a final decision.
Meanwhile I've been looking up some YouTube videos to get an idea of how it'll be. Embedded 4 of these below. Looks like good fun.

Machete Attack In Pattaya
Wow a machete attack on Soi LK Metro last night in Pattaya. But thankfully no foreigners involved in this one, just Thais doing their thing.

Cat Hates Collar
Another cute animal video.
This poor kitty just can't wait to get rid of that collar and its annoying little bell.

Fave Songs 002: Guns N' Roses - November Rain
One of the best rock ballads of all time: November Rain by Guns N' Roses.
This brings back a lot of memories from my teenage years.

Pattaya ladyboys arrested
According to Pattaya One, 40 ladyboys were arrested last night on Beach Road and Walking Street. They were subsequently let go after a 100 baht fine and a warning to not be seen in these areas again.
The plan is to improve Pattaya's image in preparation for High Season and to remove them every night until they are forced to relocate to another area that families are less likely to visit.
Weird plan though. Any families who go to Pattaya for a holiday should certainly already know about the famous nightlife. I haven't seen any families walking on the Beach at night. And I would think any families who ever decide to go to Walking Street actually want to see the gogo welcome girls and all the ladyboys walking around.
I guess I'll have to wait a couple of weeks and find out where the ladyboys have decided to relocate to.

Tom Cruise is Jack Reacher, LOL
I love the Jack Reacher novels written by Lee Child.
Jack Reacher is a 6ft 5in kick-ass master. Unfortunately they chose Tom Cruise to play him in the movie coming out this December.
First time I read this, I thought it was a joke. But it's not. Talk about shitty casting or the power of the $$$ in Hollywood or the Scientology puppet masters at work.
Tom Cruise should be embarrassed of stepping into Jack Reacher's shoes but he's either delusional or desperate for a few last paychecks.
Lee Child should be ashamed of letting this happen but I guess he's busy enjoying the ton of money he's been given.
I would say there's no way I'll watch this movie but honestly, Singapore is much too boring for me to be able to guarantee this. I'm pretty sure that in about 6 months when this movie becomes available, I'll be bored enough (or I'll have sufficient bandwidth) to download it. So I'll watch it but I most likely won't finish it.

Facebook Stock - still down overall
Facebook's stock might be up today but it's still down from its rather ambitious IPO price.
While most of Facebook's founders are still rich, many of the investors have been burned big-time.

Nothing overly practical for us normal folks. Unless this damn blog ever provides me enough money, this is just a pipe dream.

Apple iPad mini
The latest worst kept tech secret is out, Apple has announced the iPad mini.
List of features can be seen here.
I have always resisted buying an iPad because I see it as just an oversize iPhone. But with a trip to the US possibly coming soon, maybe maybe maybe I'll spring for an iPad mini. It might come down to what type of seats we can get on that plane.

BlackBerry Porsche P'9981
Wow this Blackberry looks goooooooooood.
These pics below are of the BlackBerry Porsche P'9981, the result of RIM's partnership with Porsche Design.
The only gripe I have is with the rather crass Porsche Design text at the top but then again if Louis Vuitton can sell bags with their brand written all over, why not?
But beware, this cool phone costs $2000 and availability is very limited.

Dog nurses Kitten
Cute video of the day.
Three-year-old dachsund Remy is a first-time mom--but not to a litter of puppies. She's nursing a rescued kitten named Alvin, and she's even producing milk to feed him.
