Movie of the Year (2007)

Transformers

Well, it may not have the best storyline or acting, but it was by far the coolest!

Torch;D

Most pointless activity (2007)

Changing governments in South-east Asia.

We seen the failure of the monks in Burma. We seen Thaksin's party take back power in Thailand. And we seen yet another failed coup in the Phillipines.

Debate of the Year (2007)


Is there a God? Does religion do more harm than good?
Well, that were big questions brought up by atheists in late 2006 that lasted throughout 2007. Although not sufficiently structured, the atheist managed to irk religionous groups enough to produce several rebuttals.

Technology Breakthrough (2007)


iPhones
It responds to tilting, has a touch interface, and responds like an iPod. What more do you want? Yes, it acts as a phone too.
November Foxtrot

Book of the year (2007)


Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows
Is there any other book that can gather as much attention as this? The swan song of Harry Potter will stay that way.
But 2007 was a competitive year. So contenders include, Captain America #25 (Death of Captain America) and The God Delusion.

I know Singapore is an island. But that's no excuse to having high drowning cases, especially for this year. We need to be more aware of this.

Ok, everyone, it's time for the best and worst of 2007! Here it goes!

Singapore soccer team is one step away from World Cup 2010!

No, it's not a fake. It's true. Ever since beating Thailand for this year's Tiger Cup, Singapore soccer team officially now does not suck. And their goal of reaching the world cup is that much closer! They even drew with China 0-0!

If they get past this round, they'll be in World Cup 2010!

Ho, ho, ho? No, no,no! (International News)



In Australia, a major shopping mall has banned its Santas from saying the traditional greeting "Ho, ho,ho" as it makes "unnecessary references to prositution". In other words, my dear friends, it will pollute young and impressionable minds.




What a whole lot of crap! Everything in the world has a dirty reference as long as one searches for it. What about removing the word "hooker" from rugby? Or "cookies" from candy stores? Or "puppies" from pet stores?

The Alternative: Saying yo, yo, yo to the Ho, ho, ho.
