SHIOKED IN SENTOSA

Reporting from Sentosa island off the Singapore coast, home of the newest Universal Studios theme park, as well as two golf courses, a Merlion statue and a sanctuary filled with peacocks, bananas and the sounds of pre-recorded monkeys.
I’ve been to Singapore a bunch of times, but this is only the second time I’ve been to Sentosa. The first was in 1998. They’ve really built it up since then.
Not that I’ve seen that much of it. I’ve been working almost nonstop since I landed, so pretty much all I’ve seen is a nearby 7-11. And this.

I fly out this morning, and then it’s off to Shenzhen across the HK border for three (3) straight days of PowerPoints from just one (1) company.
Joy.
Also, as this will be my first trip to mainland China in a couple of years (having finally gotten my visa re-approved), this will mark my first attempt to buy a copy of Guns’n’Roses’ Chinese Democracy in mainland China (subject to availability).
Because that’s how far I’m willing to go to entertain you.
Time to go.
Appetite for destruction,
This is dF
