so i'm back in sg, back in hall
i realize there are some other interesting-ish stuff that happened after that last entry, so here's the story.
actually here's where the story's not. am waiting for pics from fellow adventurers to new york. and then i'll post up another typical photoblog entry thingy.
but here's a story anyway... some of you would've heard this one already, but for the sake of those members of the audience who weren't there, here goes:
my flight to sg from van was delayed, so i was there drinking at the bar with some strangers in the same predicament. they're in their 40s, 2 canadian mining engineers working in indonesia and bangladesh, and a thai-canadian businessman. so we drink and talk, and we hear that the flight's delayed overnight, and that SQ will get us hotel rooms for the night. all well and good.
we sit around drinking for a tad longer, and by the time we checked, everyone's cleared out of the area. they're business class passengers, so they get the nice Fairmont Hotel, and i get the somewhat lesser establishment of Best Western Inn. By this time we're all buddies, so Dale sweet talks the hotel clerk and convinces her they made a mistake and that i should get a room in the Fairmont as well. The clerk is confused and gets me a room. sweet.
we meet up later for dinner and they decide to go to a strip club. i've got no cash left, but they say, no problem, and so i say, no problem. so we go to brandi's. the girls, boy, the girls were smokin' hot! dale buys me drinks, a couple of lap dances, and i go back to the hotel a happy man.
so, if ever you're at an airport waiting for your flight, please, have a drink or five.
