  • New Safety Doors on Singapore’s Above-ground MRT Stations (Part 2)

    In the last post I basically just mentioned what the news mentioned.  There are new “half-height” safety doors being installed on all 36 above-ground MRT stations in Singapore.  That article also mentioned that they had started their project with the Pasir Ris MRT station and it said they had already been installed there. Well, that…

  • The Cat’s Out of the Bag!

    I just wanted to say thanks to all you lovely folks who have dropped by my blog via Singapore Community Cats and Cat Welfare Society to check out my “Cats Are Good For Singapore” post. I appreciate the attention, the compliments on the article, and hope all of you enjoy it! Also, if you’re a…

  • Real Life FarmTown Coconut Tree

    Look familiar to anyone? This really does remind me of the coconut trees in Facebook’s FarmTown application. Ya, I’m addicted to it! Kinda silly, but it’s a fun way to kill time. Sorry, to those of you who saw this when I posted it to Facebook before. ^_^ Posted via email from Bradley’s Posterous

  • A View of Orchard Road From the Lucky Plaza Mall

    Orchard Road is the main shopping strip in Singapore and is well maintained by the government to present the best image possible to foreigners who are in the country.  You can find everything from Louis Vuitton to McDonald’s there. I read an article recently that was talking about counterfeiting in Singapore, and wrote a post…

  • Half-Height Safety Doors at Singapore MRT Stations

    I read an article on ChannelNewsAsia’s website saying that by 2012 Singapore will finish installing half-height screens (or safety doors) along the lengths of above-ground MRT stations. They’re doing this in an attempt to make the stations more safe for passengers.  There have been 92 instances since 2006 where people have fallen onto the tracks,…

  • Buddy Hoagies at Downtown East

    The first time my wife and I saw this place we kinda scoffed at the name.  It sounds pretty lame right?  So, we didn’t bother trying it out.  We didn’t even bother looking it up online. I was really in the mood to try something new, though, so when a Friday night rolled around and…

  • Interested In A Golden Shower?

    Hey, I didn’t make this up. That’s a street in my wife’s old neighborhood in the Philippines.

  • The Search For Great Pizza in Singapore Continues

    One of the things I’ve been unable to do since moving to Singapore is locate a great pizza. I mean a great pizza that tastes like a slice of pizza I could get in New York City. I know that’s not likely to happen, but man, I was hoping for something close at least. There…

  • Singapore’s National Day

    So, Sunday is August 9th, Singapore’s National Day. The country will be celebrating it’s 44th birthday, it’s 44th year of nationhood, supposedly. I say supposedly because I remember reading recently that the Prime Minister said that Singapore is not yet a nation. I know he was speaking figuratively, but it still can’t be a fun…
