Obama Inauguration : Lego Style


The folks at LegoLand California have built this historic mock-up scene of President-elect Barack Obama taking the Presidential oath of office at the steps of the Capitol in Miniland U.S.A. President-elect Obama and his wife Michelle, and daughters Sasha & Malia, along with Vice President-elect Joseph Biden are replicated as mini-figures in LEGO brick. Hundreds of LEGOLAND mini-figures have been invited to witness the historic occasion too. Way cool!!!

Pre CNY in Hong Kong

It's close to the Chinese New Year and it's fitting to pay a visit to a country that has given me many fond memories. It's a city that basically reinvents itself to stay ahead of the curve. That's basically a fact of life and time waits for no man. So to be relevant one has to constantly adapt and shift to the changes in society, culture, politics and yes, ....fashion.

Met up with some friends there and KP was great to have hosted us. We were having a great time discussing on all things and I must say he is certainly always thinking ahead. Nice to have caught up with u again.


Despite what you may have heard, HK still serve the BEST Char Siew (BBQ Pork) in the world. Period.
