Yes! Let's meet! :D (there! we now covered US, UK and Ausies... :D)
I'm not from Singapore, but I've been caned a few times.
I'm not from singapore, but Def Leppard played some good acoustic version songs there. :D
No, but I once had a barber named Dominique.
I'm not from Singapore, but Tom Waits made an excellent song with its name.
I do know someone from Singapore but I won't tell. She is in the boards as well :D But I won't tell.
I'm not from Singapore, but I'm jumping on the bandwagon.
I'm not from Singapore, but it's okay--I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
I'm not from Singapore, and I never will be.

Coincidentally, you never replied to my PM. Are my credit card numbers lucky or not?

You need to zoom in with the '+' on the map for the flags to appear.

I'm not from singapore, though I sing and I can pour. And I don't think I'm your friend, but I've been wrong before.
Nope, but I'm a poor singer, thats for sure!
I like your joke better than mine, m0ds. How dare you.
*groans at some of the jokes*
I thought I'd heard all the bad jokes about Singapore before (the caning one is miiiighty old), but some of these are really bad. :P
Anyway... I'm probably the only active member from the Lion City here now, but I have no idea about your friend, hello123. Sorry :(

Hi, I quite often stay in Singapore..
but sorry, I don't have any idea about your friend also..

thanks for the help, all! well, i am giving up. if nothing else, i found this thread to be extremely informative! can someone (who knows) please respond to the following questions:
1- why is singapore called the lion city?
2-does singapore have a capital (i have heard that it does not)?
3 - is the major dialect there mandarin or english?
peace in the middle east!
hello123
Wasn't Don "The Barbarian" McPherson (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?action=profile&u=2428) who you were looking for? Gord mentioned him in the second post of this thread.
If it's not him, I can't help you. I don't know any person who can sing, pour and teach at the same time.
Didn't know about the past of Barbarian, but as far as I know, he's living in Hong Kong at the moment.

Wikipedia knows all of this. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore) I could reproduce it here, but you'll learn more from reading the article. :D
thanks! it probably also has a definition for "too lazy to search" or "yearning for human contact", too!
:D
I bought my iPod in singapore, it was very cheap. They use the same plug sockets as we do, so it was very easy to use at home to. I wish I was wfrom singapore.
my life will be enlightened forever, zooty. from all of us, thank you :'(

In Soviet Russia, Singapore is from you!
You know ... I thought my luggage felt a tad heavier than usual. I hope you guys are having fun with the mini-elephant and blow-up doll (it's for scientific experiments)
A mini-elephant and a blow-up doll?

Welcome to Pun City.
Quote from: Zooty on Wed 04/04/2007 23:56:35Welcome to Pun City.
Pun City??? I thought I was in Singapore ... damn Google maps.
Since Darth is carrying me around in his luggage, I decided to climb out, only to find myself in PUN city. When will we get to Singapore?? I am starting to cramp up in this small suitcase.
I AM FROM SINGAPORE! NO JOKE! It is an extremely modern city island of its own with three main races, chinese, malay and indian. My ancestors moved from india ages ago. We all learn english as our first language however the majority there are chinese and are slowly starting to change it. It is very clean and then law, and schools, are very strict. It is called the lion city because ages ago a malaysian prince called sang nila utama came on his ship to singapore (legend has it that in a storm, he stopped the boat from sinking by throwing his crown overboard) and saw a tiger that had swam there from sumatra and mistook it for a lion and called it singa(lion)pura(city), soon sir stamford raffles of england founded singapore but the national anthem is in malay. Only a year ago I moved to england because the education here is beter. :)
thanks! lots of information that i never knew before. but why no capital city? is it just too small of a body of land to have one?

I'm still stuck in the suitcase since Domino locked his suitcase.
Quit whinin'. You've got the elephant.
victor love your avatar. where the f did you get it?
Well, the elephant is in Darth's suitcase and I'm inside Domino's which is in Darth's!
And I found my avatar amongst Domino's stuff.. He has some pretty obscure things in here!
