Woman: Hey, you know, I’ve googled and saved some pictures of that long haired Chippendale guy that I really like. Partner: Yeah? What for?

BirdChat Series #3: Doubtful Bird (aka Jesus on the Beach)

Birdie: I think all this depiction about Jesus as unmanly guy with flimsy hands is just stupid, you know. It doesn’t make sense! He is a carpenter, for goodness sake.

Conspiracy Theory

It’s no secret that my company has been trying to cut cost. Who doesn’t, right, amidst the global economic recession? But whether the cost reduction has anything to do with the peculiar coincidences that happened these few days, maybe only God (and whoever “arranged” this) knows. There had been a series of important emails to [...]

‘First-Time Offender’ Redefined

I committed my first crime a few days ago. I mean the first one that got caught. Well, while in my humble home country the word ‘offender’ makes you think of drug smuggler, child trafficker, rapist, or mass murderer, I can assure you that my case is not even close to drink driving. (I don’t [...]
