Night Owl Chatterboxes - Part XXXVIII!
-
i dunno.. but they're cool and tough as heck.. have you seen the documentary?
they are fierce predators.. one attacked an adder.. the adder bit it but it did not stop, so the adder was killed and the badger was eating it.. then the venom took effect and the badger lapsed into a coma... and was out cold for 5 hours...
it woke up, and continued eating the snake as if nothing happened
it will also endure hundreds of stings to get at the honey.. and in africa, it'll be guided to bee hives by a bird called a honeyguide which eats the larvae off the honeycombs the badger steals..
the badger is cool as it's totally fearless!

It's really sickening and disturbing to read abt the 2 recent gang rape cases....
The police is blaming Sin Chew Jit Poh for publishing the article on the front page...
Needless to say, the police got jeered at an event over the weekend
Some are now reflecting abt what MM Lee talked abt many years back... -
idiots...
instead of ranting against the paper, they should put the rapists in prison... then the papers would be praising them.. -
Yes, I read about that. I'm happy for them and wish them all the best in their medical studies at the NUS.Originally posted by sbst275:hoh...

Hopefully, this is the first step in alleviating the chronic shortage of medical staff in Singapore. -

But that would mean the police would have to do actual investigative work...Originally posted by the Bear:idiots...

Or choose a bike route that is mostly downhill.Originally posted by the Bear:if only i have Mrs Bear to ride a tandem with me -
yeah... sometimes, they have to (ahem!) think out of the box and do what they are totally unqualified to doOriginally posted by Meia Gisborn:But that would mean the police would have to do actual investigative work...

Actually they've arrested the rapist
But the prob is, the harm is done... The ppl in JB has enough of this alrdy...
Talked abt developing JB into another Shenzhen, yet security is at the worst level... Even KL is better than JB in security -
JB reminds me of some kinda frontier town full of outlaws
-
That would just make any makan trips there all the more... exciting!Originally posted by the Bear:JB reminds me of some kinda frontier town full of outlaws
I think the allure of cheap seafood will still persuade Singaporeans to risk going there on a regular basis. -
okay... why the heck is my right forearm aching when i went cycling?

It's really very very bad these days..Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:That would just make any makan trips there all the more... exciting!

Fake accidents, gang rape even near 2nd Link, robbery.... what the... -
Actually there was 1 lady also from NP who was actually the 1st to pursue medical courses directly aft poly... But had to pursue it overseasOriginally posted by Meia Gisborn:Yes, I read about that. I'm happy for them and wish them all the best in their medical studies at the NUS.
Hopefully, this is the first step in alleviating the chronic shortage of medical staff in Singapore.
I've a feeling that this happened because of the lady's case -
Excessive use of the right handbrake during the bike ride, perhaps?Originally posted by the Bear:okay... why the heck is my right forearm aching when i went cycling? -
