Hello & Goodbye

Finally, my compaq baby is reborn! Spanking new and un-burdened, with zero files & pictures, it is ready to be contaminated by yours truly once more... Thank you big taurus wong, for so patiently spending that 3 grueling hours with me, in front of baby desktop, gently coaxing it back to life... such focused concentration in the midst of all that painful reformating & installation! Thanks techno-buddy, I owe you one yet again. Too bad you are taken. =)

Okies, now that I'm reunited with my own online machine, it's time to join that list of 10,000+ (& counting) citizens who had signed the online petition asking dear Mr TT Durai to pack his bag & disappear with his gold tap... & the 3800+ (& also still counting) donors who have decided to stop financing his ridiculous 12-mths bonus... This is such a massive, nationwide joke I thought it surely deserved a special feature on Ripley's Believe It Or Not. What blatant & guiltless exploitation, followed by equally repulsive & evasive denials!! Never underestimate the ability of mankind indeed. I am almost embarassed to belong to the same species. But then again, there are still some old faithfuls like dear Mrs Goh who professed her 'complete trust' in the association & its CEO in Straits Times today... oh well, what can I say??

I pity the patients. They are the real victims of this whole brouhaha. I promise, if and when NKF's funds run out after 6.9yrs of FULL subsidy for them, I will start digging into my pockets & contribute that (measly to Mr TT) $2/mth again.

Till then, Mr TT, I think it's definitely time to say GOODBYE. Goodbye, and may we never meet again.
