It seems that no warning signs will stop smokers from buying cigarettes.  Such is the power of nicotine.  So these ads are all useless- but hopefully they will stop people who are not smokers from taking up the nasty habit.

Julian Beever calls himself a “pavement picasso” and he is truly a great artist and just as prolific.  His work continues to grow, although sadly, since its made of chalk, can only be preserved in pictures and youtube videos. Although there are other chalk artists who do phenomenal work like Kurt Wenner, Tracy Lee Stum, Lori Escalera, only Beever’s work truly looks 3D from a certain angle.

I’ve seen Wenner’s work in Shanghai and the only way you could see it “sort of” in 3D was when you looked through a lens.  That isn’t necessary for Beever’s work which really pop-out, but again, only from the right perspective.  If you’re looking at it from the wrong angle, it just looks like an elongated mess which is part of its charm!

Sometimes all you want is a nice cup of coffee.  Here it is served Singapore style, in different pantone colours.  One of my friends, a higher order tai-tai than I, still doesn’t know how to distinguish between coffees since she never orders her own.  So when we asked her to do it for us today, she asked the Uncle, “what do you call the coffee that is lighter in colour?”
