Tuesday 5/27 Millings

Millting Points: Things I know about Singapore:

  • Don't be naughty or you'll be caned.
  • Selling gum is illegal unless it's nicotine gum. What kind of society awards smoking?!?
  • Singaporean men must serve two years for an army with no enemy.
  • According to Scott Yi, all Singaporeans look the same.
  • Like all Asian countries, Singapore has yet to utilize the undershirt.
Daily MillStar: A MillCredit goes to Kara Dziobek, who was the first person to join the "I read the Daily Millings everyday on dailymillings.blogspot.com" Facebook group.

Daily MillDud: A MillDud goes to Trinity Brewhouse, which was closed last night because of Memorial Day. They would have been lucky to get our business, because East Ave Irish Pub in Pawtucket is the rich man's Trinity Brewhouse. Not only does East Ave also have 20 cent wing Mondays, it has the wings in 4 different varieties.

MillBoard Charts Song of the Day: The song of the day goes to "Emphasis" by various bands from Mars Hill Church. In our time at Citylife Church, Joses and I were dazzled by this song. It is interesting to note that the word "emphasis" fails to appear in this song at all. Perhaps, this song will take off and become this generation's "Shout to the Lord."

Milligan: When I was in 8th grade, I started to care about what I was wearing. At the time, it was trendy for boys to wear an unbuttoned short-sleeved plaid shirt over a white undershirt and khaki shorts. I remember waking up about a half hour earlier to iron my clothes before school. Considering the fact that I didn't even begin to like girls until the 10th grade, I gladly trade in the ironing skills I acquired for about 365 extra hours of sleep.

MillBox:
Question: If I wanted to ask you or Joses or Jimmy a question for the Daily Millings, what should I do?
Miller: Well, you should post your question as a comment on this blog or you can email your question to dailymillings@gmail.com if you wish to remain anonymous (even though you can comment anonymously on this blog).

Joses Ho's HoBag:
Question: What's your advice to any CHC (our campus fellowship, College Hill for Christ) men looking to date?
Joses: Start early.

Didier Dinh's NBA Dinh-sider: To Coach Doc Rivers...Where is Eddie House when we need him? He saved your team the previous round and you're going to bury him on the bench again? Is it because you're afraid that he cannot bring up the ball? Ray Allen and Paul Pierce do that job most of the times when he's on the floor anyway! As we were shooting 30% the entire night isn't it logical to give your second best shooter a try?? You have given the Celtics a very inconsistent rotation this entire post-season, which prevents the guys off the bench to get any kind of rhythm. Do the right thing and find some minutes for Eddie.

Millage People Shout-out: Mad props to the mystery person who is reading this blog from Singapore. Since Joses and his entire family is still in the states, I have no clue who you are. Please identify yourself!

Yo, can you give a MillDud to the Yahoo Mail spam filter? It almost caused me to miss the invite to the Facebook group...not cool.

Also, I'd like to point out that there's no way that Mr. Tull could have the patent he claimed on 5/23...Cuz sadly I know I'd used that move twice by the second week after orientation of 2000. Not an auspicious beginning to my career at Brown, but hey, at least I could only go up.

P.S. So nice to have another blog to distract me from studying for boards.

Hi Tim.

I love the chicken army

Bearded said...

and tim...i see your point, but it's more common in the way you used it.

My patent involves 3+ weeks of pseudo-dating, then ignoring. It's much more immature.

what happened to the tulebag? does this mean that the hobag will soon be an extinct sxn also?

you guys crack me up.

Alright, I suppose my ignoring generally started before 3+ weeks of pseudo dating...though I think it was less a sign of maturity, and more ADD...though from where I'm sitting, I'd say I'm a lot happier about the times I ended up not dating someone then the times I did.

I also love the chicken army. They must get chaplains from Church's Chicken (which may only exist in Urban areas in the Midwest).

Hey Yufu.
