reactions to the news today
a few things to get off me chest, after reading thru the newspapers today:
.............................................................................................
Culture Watch:
(in the LIFE section)
here's a pix of (both pensive) Dick Lee and Jack Neo, probably at the ceremony which conferred unto them the The Cultural Mediallion Award.
and for which one of the responses/writeup was:
read the remarks hightlighted in "green" and "yellow":
while im not here to argue whether or not either of them deserved said award, my question to the yellow-highlighted-remark is: " Then does it mean we are looking at Quantity versus Quality? "
.............................................................................................
Cheating Case Puts In Doubt Singapore Standing On World Gaming Stage:
(in the DIGITAL LIFE section)
read the "crime" hightlighted in "green" and the accusation in "yellow".
this i think is pure comedy-gold. the china team cheated and yet they accuse the organizers of giving/providing them the opportunity for the crime? and peeps are arguing that t'was the lack of professionalism in the organizers/marshals? muahahahaha
tis like saying:
"Hey this not our fault we broke into your house, you should have locked the front door in the first place!", innit?
.............................................................................................
An Eye For iPod:
(in the DIGITAL LIFE section)
and who do you think would be cashing-in/reacting to this?
P.R.O.N. = mark my words.
in this cyberage of instant gratification, what more would anyone want to see? except for what they are not allowed to, or are denied (pending costs of video downloads of coz) ... why download something on a small screen when ya can watch it on the telly? (music videos et al) ... and when there is a demand, sure as heck as there'll be a way to satisfy it ... i've heard of peeps having pron videograbs in their 3G-phones and now with a bigger, more mobile screen/equipment?
.............................................................................................
but then again, alla these are just of me own humble opinion only, innit?
heh
