taxi/stand


It's official. In addition to a deadly array of martial art skills, the culinary expertise to match any award-winning chef that he possesses, and a masterclass sports act, Butlerman is now a fully fledge photographer.

Or not. Above demonstrates a feeble attempt of stylistic flamboyance that most first-time photographers rarely capture - I don't think I've broken the trend. Since then (midway last year) I've bumbled through taking some shots since with some interesting god-awful results. Hopefully within the year (it's a sad case when I'm not even sure I can complete anything by this year... to be elaborated upon somewhere someday) I should be able to retake some of the shots with hopefully more visually-appealing results. The shot above at Vivo's taxi stand just happens to appear pretty.

Speaking of taxi stands, Butlerman in recent efforts to "Go Green" has forsaken the traditional Batmobile in lieu of more environmentally friendly modes of transport. Captain Planet, who sports a similarly retarded haircut (had one today myself) and that same muscle-bound body, his fellow vigilante would approve. After submitting myself to an incredibly gruelling saturday of work and enforced entertainment, I indulged in a midnight screening of "The Bucket List" whilst doing my best to stay upright in one of Lido's sleazier cinemas (I've been on swings that were more stable). Without any other option left open Ine a magmanimous display of environmental awareness, Butlerman actually took a cab home.

Perhaps I'm used to lip-wobbling, face-peeling breakneck speeds that the Butler household enjoys driving their car at, but the pace at which Ong Kai _______ drove at provoked severe disbelief and irritation - I've seen people reverse faster into a parking lot. Despite bearing a startling and rather unfortunate resemblence to the supreme racer of Star Wars renown Sebulba, I was half-expecting to see a tow-truck pulling the taxi in the opposite direction, such was the manner the taxi was lurching along in. Every time we hit a corner (wildly enthusiastic figure of speech - at that speed we weren't going to hit anything), I was readying myself to drag myself out half spluttering drool from exhaustion and drowsiness to push the car along. Superhuman intuition or not, one is certain that this is probably not an isolated scenario.

Until he manages to start driving...

toilet break!

It goes without being said that a blog post is long overdue, if only as a means of persuading everyone that Butlerman is once more at peace with the world. Relatively, that is. As a longtime pursuer of justice, "flabbergasted" would be the (lip-smackingly) appropriate word to describe myself when I found out that a certain high profile terrorist was on the loose in the mazey labyrinth of Singapore. Wentworth Miller's character in Lost(EDIT - Butlerman is bad with popular culture) Prison Break would be kicking himself silly if he had thought of using the "toilet" ploy earlier. A bunch of average Singaporean students would have been able to prevent the Oompa Loompa lookalike from escaping, seeing as how we've been taking full advantage of our bladders since time imemorial to escape from classes.

Other significant events have occured in my life recently, but in the interest of self-preservation, amongst others, this superhero isn't going to air his dirty spandex laundry anytime soon.
