veri quiet in this thread.

got ghost??

i remember i used to watch the ghostbusters cartoon.

 

There were plenty of "ghost stories" here about how the sub-prime ghost haunt the market bull until it had a heart attack...:) 

 

Most of the ghost stories I hear about are about NS.

 

Does anyone here read Russel Heng's popular "Singapore Ghost Stories" series of books?
If I'm not wrong, there are 16 books so far in the series...

 

Let's keep this thread alive!

Anyone has any Hungry Ghost stories to tell me? Pray tell....  

 

yea baseerahmed, agree with jessie. :)

and thanks kilroy. your posts have been educational. do keep them coming when you can. :)

 

Hi Baseerahmed,,  I seconded you ie KiLroy has posted great postings lately.  I also enjoyed reading them.Thank you, KiLroy !!!

 

The 'Basket of Goods' to calculate Spore's inflation rate is obviously flawed and does not reflect the true inflation faced by people in Spore.

I remember the June 2007 inflation report released by the Dept of Statistics reported YoY housing costs was -2% (figure may not be accurate as it is from memory; but there was a decrease in housing cost compared to June 2006). Such glaring anomaly should have been reviewed and corrected before release of the data......but I guess it served its purpose as this component helped 'pull' down the overall inflation to a more 'acceptable' level.

It seems that the components in the 'Basket of Goods' is engineered so that it will result in 'tame' inflation figures to make it look good on paper but does not serve its purpose of presenting the real situation.......just my personnal pinion.  

 

of late, Kilroy's postings on general topics on stock market are simply great !

Thank you , Kilroy !

keep them coming ....!

 

Personally,I find cost of living in spore to be reasonable.

I normally pay double the px in australia for the same qty of food ordered.

So much so,thinking of retiring there.hahaha

 

hi lausk22, thanks for your compliments :) forgive those who trespass against u. godpa and others have not reached that stage, so nothing for me to forgive him/them about :)

as for trusting...well, it's always good to put one's trust in another (unless judgement proven wrong), especially when he/she is someone of wisdom and years of life experiences to share and teach. if given a chance, it would be lovely for me to learn from u too.

as for godpa(s), hahahaha. so far oni 1 leh. cannot handle big family, so 1 godpa enough. and i dun see any young ones offering leh. u are definitely not offering; and neither are u young :)

have a gd weekend everyone :)

 

Hi all,

Was really busy the last couple of days so I didn't post too much. Talking about GST ... I think hawkers didn't change their price much but the restaurants have started to charge already. I keep having to remind myself that GST is now 7% because my mouth always drop open when I see the final price!!!  

 

Read about the inflation after GST. Recall that some VIPs said very few hawkers increase their prices. Recall one evening that I found that my stomach was not filled when I taken a bowl of noddles which usually I felt enough for me. Flash back to the bowl of mee, Aha more water, less mee but no increase in price. Neutral to GST.

 

 

hi Asterisk.. thanks sir, but actually (hope I dont sound too patronising) I am very sure one day you will certainly travel, and to many places all paid for, your turn will come... just be patient... when I was your age, I dont even get to go by MRT, I had to take bus, and wait long long to go to school,

but now ze eye is very sleepy... as I was on the move since 29th morning... got clogged mind.. zz z z 

oh hey Laotze... i try my best sir.. you give me stress...

 

To my three great pals....

cks...I prefer comedy like As You Like It than tragedy like Macbeth...but agree with you that life is a journey. Bon voyage to you...I'm sure many in SJ will be waiting for your return from your journey anxiously to unfold your dramatic travel tales with sensational photos to boot.

EastonBay...Bon Voyage to you too....Again...the players here will be waiting to lap up your Silk Route travelogue. I'm sure you will have many enetertaining stories to tell when you are back.

Mani...Godfriends are like God Brothers one level better than Good Friends. But don't worry ..I'm no Brokeback type.. 

bunbun..what can I say?..you are a nice gal..trusting and forgiving, no wonder even young fellows would luv to be your godpa...;)

cheers!!!
