Sleeping on the job, amazing mooncake logic, and Mr Moon River passes on...

NOD = Napping On Demand!

You are not alone if you feel like nodding off on the job, a survey says (ST, Sept 27, below). At least among Singaporeans. If only you could get a power nap before you even start work, if only, if only...

One mattress company, perhaps sensing that there's a legion of "instant turn-on" Singaporean nappers out there -- and they all carry DBS credit cards! -- is running a "Take a Nap" campaign...

Over the moon with your weight loss? Here, have some mooncakes!...


And don't forget to come back for more slimming sessions after you have stuffed yourself silly with all those calorie-laden mooncakes.

Meanwhile, there was a time when mooncakes were mooncakes, ie, you had a choice of leng yong or tau sar filling, with or without salted egg yolk (single or double). Prices did not go over the moon either. No longer.

These days, the varieties are mind-boggling and so are the prices, like these "hand crafted" ones below (and they are not the most expensive, mind you):


It's mooncake madness all right...

Thank you for your music, Mr Moon River...


Here's his signature song, on YouTube...
