      Anyway, last bit on the dog analogy. I don’t think 3. is a golden retriever (just gentle and trusting). I read his interview where he was reminiscing about going up against Goh Keng Swee in the early days about some education issue. Also did faintly recall about him standing up about the graduate mother scheme and some others in parliament.


      Did I let that golden bit out of the bag? or I made wrong association?

        Way2GO:
        What type of guard dog would u pick tmr?


        1. Doberman – Elegant looking dog n extremely loyal to their loved ones.
        Can be aggressive to strangers. Obedient, only respond to one owner.
        This breed was originally bred to be a personal protection dog.
        Not a ppl’s kind of dog.

        2. Mongrel – A common breed seen in SG.
        Elegant looking would be too much of an exaggeration. One wouldn’t be proud to display its photos in public places.
        Speaks funny. Not top dog material.

        3. Golden Retreiver – a versatile dog good for a variety of roles
        except its trusting n gentle nature makes it unsuitable for a guard dog.
        Makes a good house pet.

        4. Bulldog – not a pretty looking dog, just like its female companion.
        Cover its face if don't want to scare d children.
        Sourpuss looks aggressive, but is actually gregarious.
        Can be wilful n fiercely loyal, which is good against an unyeilding bigger opponent.
        walao wei, Way2GO :rant: ,

        you label with all these animal names, not afraid to kena yellow card for being DEROGATORY ???
        Semalam saya baru cakap satu 'anak ayam', sudah kena shoot. :sad: :sad:
        DesertWind:
        Personally, any reference to any animal is not nice to me. :skeptical:

          Only problem is that I couldn't attend becos nid to take care of kids. now :stupid: :stupid:


          And yes, the old adage again \"old ginger is spiciest\" - as seen in Ivy S-L's speech, and TCB's strategy.
          Hi hquek,
          I did not attend too, same lor, need to take care of kids!
          Am trying now to watch on the web but could not watch because got the message \"you need to install Adobe to watch\" flashing. :frustrated: I need my hubby to fix this!

          What to do? 🤷
          Relax la....I got to go to the office to work now! 😢
          :celebrate:

            If u still cannot decide who to vote ... Maybe a simplify version will help u 😄

            Who would you put in a room to watch your kid to make sure he do his homework properly?

            1) his best friend
            2) the teacher that he don't like
            3) grandfather that he knows he can easily convince him not to tell u if he misbehave
            4) A uncle that your kid think he can step over
            :evil:
            Puff, this is quote of the day!

              I feel that for someone who is qualified to be the president himself, his comment should carry more weight than many others..

              http://www.facebook.com/georgeyeopage

              And.. for the record.. I guess I never say who I'll vote for, or who should you vote for.. But rather provide views and opinions so that readers judge for themselves who they should vote for.. 😉
              limlim,

              nice one 😉 😉

              you never say who you will vote for....but you have stated clearly ( me too ! ) who you will NOT vote for :boogie: :boogie:

                  Big fish:
                  Since so many of you supported TCB, can someone clarify why he make a fuss about indoor and outdoor rallies? Does he mean outdoor ones are low class? I wanted to vote for him and placed him at my first choice, now I have change my mind. I also not very high class.

                  Still don't know who to choose next? May be invalid votes, hee hee.
                  For me I did not think it as \"high-class\" or \"low-class\" but as consideration for his supporters to give them a nice cooling place to go to! Very good mah, got air-con, Singapore very hot leh!

                    Yah and it's sheltered so not scared of heavy downpour. I also agree nothing to do with class. Just consideration for his supporters.

Just consideration for his supporters.[/quote]Think is the way it was titled in ST on the word 'dignified' (something like 'more dignified indoor rally' - cannot remember exact words). Happened to see the article after reading Big Fish's comment.
