ST's Punchlines on that "What S'porean workers want" story (yesterday):

This shophouse (Blu Jaz Cafe) in Haji Lane was in the news. Its creative artwork would have been lauded elsewhere but someone labelled it "graffiti", and that's a no-no in Singapore. The Urban Redevelopment Authority was not happy about it...

And this sports headline (new swim boss' name is Turner) just doesn't work...


Finally, you know Halloween is round the corner when such gross ads appear:
