You better watch out

You better watch out

You better watch out
You better not try
You better not flout
I’m telling you why
ICA is checking you now
(sung to the tune of ‘Santa Claus is Coming to Town’)

Well if you are wondering where this 'song' comes from, the source is none other than ICA(Immigration and Checkpoints Authority, SINGAPORE) mentioned in the lyrics. Now who says all civil servants must be strait-laced, no nonsense. Kudos to the person/team writing the press releases, it makes the press releases a much more captivating read while sending the message too. The press release continues below:

Yes, Christmas may be over and the malls stopped playing Christmas songs, but would-be smugglers have better take heed of the new ICA ditty. Two smugglers would probably remember this song for a long time, as they found out that ICA officers at the checkpoints remain vigilant during the peak festive season as well. At Woodlands checkpoint on 28 Dec 05, ICA foiled an attempt to bring in 450 cartons of duty-unpaid cigarettes and another attempt to smuggle controlled drugs into Singapore.

You can read the whole press release here, and the index of press releases here.
Just to name a few other interesting headlines: "Something buldging at the front of part of his trousers", "I know what you did last December".

PC in oil, anyone?

Here's an interesting DIY that the guys over at Tom's Hardware did, a DIY fanless oil cooled system! (Click on the pic to go to the article) Now that's a lot of deep fried chips(lame)!

There's trouble brewing, guys
