Night Owl Chatterboxes - Part XVI

In the other news, I read in Time Essays that Bush Snr actually appointed a commitee nicknamed God's Squad to take off animal or plant species which are 'impeding economic progress' from the environmental protection list?

You can buy remote starters for cars that are activated via a key fob. Many people have them here--they can be useful for starting the engine while you're still in the house, so that by the time you're ready to leave, the cabin of the car is all nice and warm. I'm pretty sure you can get them in Canada too.Originally posted by littlestream:Wei, wei, wei...............choy! Tai kar lai si
Actually, I liked my Elantra. But now that I've been driving my Mazda, I like it better. Drives very well. While both are 2L, the Mazda felt to have more power and sturdy. Hubby said it's economical too.
I think the one complain I have will have to be the gas tank is on the right hand side. Meaning I have to walk around to fill up. Don't like that idea. Anyways, hubby has been doing all the filling up since I got the car.
Oh, and the other thing is once you get the engine running, you can't lock it. Why I need to do that? Well, for ALL the winters, hubby has been out in the morning warming up my car so that when I get in, the temp in the car will be just nice for me. Sweet eh? Yeap, he is so wonderful. Oh, pai seh, okay, back to topic. Well, with this car, we can't lock it while it's running so he has to keep an eye. There were instances where cars get driven off.
MG, I didn't lie. I did take pic of the car with my V3 but I didn't know how to send it to my email. But anyways, to post pic of my car? I feel gwai gwai de.
Strangely enough, leaving a car unattended with the engine running in a public location is considered an offence here. A lot of people still do it, though. -
is the law inflexible?
can anyone answer me this.. -
the Republicans did more damage to the ecology than anything ever...
they just sold the US down the line for their cronies...

i'd not want to live in the US... they're screwed.. and then some (sorry MG)
the GOP has alienated the US in such a way that no one, and i mean NO ONE has anything redeeming to say about the US gabrament anymore... -

I know, I've seen the ads. But my car key has a micro-chip. And that key-hole thingy? Has some kind of flashing light. In any case, if I do any alterations to the car, the warranty will be void.Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:You can buy remote starters for cars that are activated via a key fob.

Yes, it is an offence in Canada to leave car running unattended too, especially having the air-conditioning on during summer months. But I think the grace duration is 3 minutes. -
long story..around 7 pages..Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:The law pertaining to what?
and the worse thing i'm made to do the decision part on the case which i have alot of problems with cause i do not know which to add in and leave out..
the frigging applicant seems to be arguing about the law more den the case itself even stating the draughtsman made an error by leving the word order out of S 154 of the companies act...
irritating.. -
stella, you should log off and concentrate on your school assignment.
-
stella, any chance your lecturer or tutor is some lady called Gopalan?
For business law, I dont encourage anyone to use the one written by local NTU lecturers, where it have been made the sole biz law textbooks in NTU, NUs and elsewhere
Try others, like Latimer of Australia..they are deeper in insights, and more enlightening i would say -

cute little critter
Orphaned squirrel monkey Loki clings to his toy duck at Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Australia, Thursday, Jan. 19, 2006. Loki, who lost his mother shortly after birth eight weeks ago, has been hand raised by zoo staff and will be introduced to the rest of the Squirrel Monkey's when once he is weaned and learns to regulate his body temperature.

Different strokes for differents folks. Nobody is claiming that the US is Nirvana or paradise on earth, but millions of immigrants seem to like this country enough to make it their adopted home.Originally posted by the Bear:the Republicans did more damage to the ecology than anything ever...

Name me any country in the world that has a 'perfect' system of government. The current Republican administration might not endear themselves to the electorate for a variety of reasons, but the people of this country have the option of voicing their displeasure come election time.
Do the citizens of Singapore actually have a voice in the poliitical process there? -

I used to live near the flyover. The block was next to the then Siong Hoe factory. A biscuit factory. Hmm....yum yum.....I can still smell the aroma of the cookies. In fact, in my early teens, I went in there to look for part time job but was considered too young.
And then there is the Central and oh yes, a park!!! There was a restaurant in the middle of the park. At night ah???? Lovers' Park.
