STGCC 2010
Ol'Dan is back at STGCC this year with the Singapore Garrison of the 501st Legion and trooping as an AT-AT Driver as usual (below right):
and as seen at AsiaOne:
I not only had a good time posing at our photo booth to raise funds for the Singapore Children's Society, I also got to meet StickGirl (at last):
Pardon my 'janitor' outfit, StickGirl. AT-AT Driver also need to take five. XD
To top it off, I bumped into an ex-JC classmate of mine whom I only knew for three months before I transferred out. After 20 years, he still recognises me and called out to me. Great to see him getting his son acquainted with Vader's finest troopers.
This will be a day long remembered.
p.s. Drop by the Starwars.sg/501st Legion photobooth to support our fund raising for the Singapore Children's Society.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's...
For non-Chinese readers:
The second and third chinese characters, 鸡 and 机 (ji) have the same pronunciation.
飞机 (fei ji) literally means 'flying (fei) machine (ji)', i.e. aeroplane.
飞鸡 (fei ji) literally means 'flying (fei) chicken (ji)'.

The Comic With Hainanese Dialogue 4
Happy New Year! Ol' Dan has been busy (and still is) with a long-term project which has been leeching his life-force. Glad I could squeeze time to do a new comic.
女: 这个屁股是谁的呢?
Woman: Whose backside is this?
女: 你是谁啊？
Woman: Who're you?
猫: 我是小小．
Cat: I'm the Little One.
女: Orh...原来是小小.
Woman: Oh, the 'Little One' I see.
Editor: The Hainanese word 'Boh' is somewhat a variant of the Chinese word '阿'. Just can't pinpoint an exact word for it. Also ' 阿小' doesn't seem right. Having the cat introducing itself as '小小' seems to convey 'the Little One' better.
女: 你要喝咖啡吗?
Woman: Would you like some coffee?
猫: 要!
Cat: Yes!
猫: Mmm....咖啡味真香!
Cat: Mmm...The coffee smells great!
女: 来, 请你吃蛋塔.
Woman: Here, let me treat you to an egg tart.
女: 你吃东西前没有洗手的啊?
Woman: Don't you wash your hands before eating?
猫: 不要浪费水.
Cat: Mustn't waste water.
女: 唉... 没话讲.
Woman: Haiz, I'm speechless.
:P
