The folks over at the Singapore government’s Media Development Authority pull out all the stops in an apparent attempt to prove that government bureaucrats can be cool. . . And end up verifying exactly the opposite. . .
Like my bankers and accountant, I prefer my bureaucrats to be boring, not cool.
Besides, whats this they claim about creating jobs? Never met a bureaucrat that could create any jobs - except, of course, one for his nephew in some obscure bureau.

Imagine what it would cost if Japanese companies had to equip their expat executives with a traditional house in, say, Manhattan.
November 28th, 2007 at 7:50 amI feel for the real/genuine rappers out there ahaha
Anyway, I hardly understood what it was all about.
Yeah, because I’m not a rapper maybe.
When they will make the death metal version, I think I will understand their message better.

Wow look at the typos!
Now we have the blatant proof that listening to rap make people lose their brain cells.

November 28th, 2007 at 10:37 amRYO, are you old enough to know where that expression really came from?
November 28th, 2007 at 4:03 pmIt was apparently a famous catchphrase used on some old show that was popular with the kids (American Bandstand). It aired in some form from the fifties until the late eighties, which should make me theoretically old enough to have watched it, but I never did. Its host was some guy who also did Thanksgiving Day parades (who, for some reason, always gets mixed up in my mind with the guy who used to sit beside Johnny Carson). My impressions of America in the fifties have been largely formed by watching Happy Days. (Let’s put it this way: I’m not old enough to have watched originally aired shows in B&W.)
I thought the Sprockets skits were funny (it’s all in the delivery, I suppose) but I admit that I was ignorant of the source of the expression until recently.
November 28th, 2007 at 10:25 pmAbsolutely right, RYO. The guy’s name is Dick Clark.
November 28th, 2007 at 10:37 pmPretty pathetic. Rock on.

November 28th, 2007 at 11:36 pmDick Clark, right… Thanks. (I thought he passed away, but I guess he hasn’t, at least not according to the Wiki link you provided.)
