why wy?

I've been away from home too long. Forgot the name of my nearest community centre and actually had to wiki it.

Ghim Moh is a district in Singapore that has a reputation nationwide for attractive food at its Food Centre that distinguishes it from other food centres in Singapore. Famous stalls include beef hor fun, char kway teow, chwee kueh, mee pok, roasted meats, and xiao wan mian. The estate consists of 21 blocks.

The chicken rice is pretty good too, even though it isn't famous.

Am still on my music binge (now playing oldies like mr sandman - think 1950s not metallica) but came across this guardian article that made me laugh so hard.

You could be forgiven for consulting the history books. The winners at yesterday's Q awards were a roll call of heroes from decades past - from 60s' legend Smokey Robinson, the 70s' Jeff Lynne, the 80s' Aha and the 90s' Take That. Add in Oasis, U2, Boy George, Peter Gabriel and the Who, and it would take a long time to add up the combined ages of the winners, though one observer did work out an average age of 41.

The baby of the winners, Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys - just 20 - admitted he was too young to know all the people around him, although that did not stop him from issuing a forthright assessment of one of the winners: "A lot of people make jokes about having awards for no reason just for the sake of having awards, and pretending they were good when they weren't. I'm not old enough to know a lot of them, but even I know Take That were bollocks."

That was, perhaps, the bitchiest comment of the lunch - apart from a legally unprintable swipe at Heather Mills McCartney by Jonathan Ross. The Q awards have been notable in recent years for their fallings out: Elton John used them to accuse Madonna of lip-synching and last year Liam Gallagher called Chris Martin a plantpot. This year's awards were a much more sober affair, but not literally, as there were enough cocktails, wine, whisky, vodka and beer to sink a battleship.

Sigh. I want to write like that.

Have you discovered firefox 2 yet? It's great although it feels slower.
