And if you were wondering about the Superbowl…

3 02 2008

… American football isn’t something the locals understand or watch. BUT, believe it or not, there are enough crazy “expats” here to support the early morning special opening of not one, not two, but MANY bars on Monday morning.

The Singapore-dwelling faithful will be watching the live game with bacon and beer at 7:18am kickoff time!

Unfortunately, I have to show up for work on Monday. If this were any other week, I would love to dwell in this most unique of expat experiences. Alas, Monday is Simone’s official first day back at the office, and the boss has us in his office at 10 and is getting quite antsy about his upcoming speeches at the India event … so we’ll be neck deep in work… but I’ll be with everyone in spirit. Sorry New Yorkers … NYC is where I live, but I’m a born and bred New Englander … GO PATS, the world is rooting for you!!!!

We will keep you posted on your Pats, for sure!!! 7:18 AM, S’pore time, and Beer & Bacon are on the menu??? Is that Bacon with/without chopsticks??? I love to hear about “cultural” differences! :-)
Hang in there…bring lots of TUMS for the boss on Monday…and remember, Simone is now back, just in time to share the work load! I bet his talk will be inmspiring and captivating…can you get a copy on tape? Dad & I would love to hear it someday.
Keep your eye on the donut…and remember that Conrad will soon be with you.

Ah, there’s some wisdom from the ‘rents we should all live by. If you haven’t heard the full warning: “Keep your eye on the donut … but watch out for the holes.”
