D - d a y

Yesterday was America independent day. Coincidently, there were 2 other D-days which i know.

the first one? my close friend.. (some of u would know who is he) Poor guy, seems like he had been taken advantage of in his office... finally yesterday he did something, and as he told me, it was his D-day.

now more or less settled le, tiriness also caught up with him.. Take good care bah, pal. You can survive what the future brings.


the next one is something not so close to me but yet i could feel it.. Have you heard about Eurovan club? (http://www.eurovanclub.com) It's a club for all van drivers in singapore.. Of coz not your delivery van man, but people who had chosen Vans as their private (cum work) wheels... mind u, these european made vans could be even better built and well equiped compared to some of the private cars around, at an much lower cost. (btw i'm interested coz now i'm driving my dad's van oftenly and also wishing for my little Peugeot (van) in future...if possible)

seems like i gettin off topic....haha...anyway, wat happened was this editor from Torque Magazine wrote an article, in which many parts are not true, ignorant and biased..
(if u have e time -- http://www.eurovanclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2859&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 )

result? Many drivers are offended, many threads followed, and the club decided to send in a petition. 5 other van clubs joined in and after 2 nights of signing, 129 persons put down their signature. And the petition was sent in yesterday (aka D-day) to the publisher, the magazine itself, and the straits times forum.. (<- anyone saw it?)

hmm... wondering... what's gonna be the outcome of this...?

(personally i hope after this incident the "whole world" would be able to see van drivers are Not Lower Class than car drivers...and we r not taxi drivers too!)


To sum up.... In both D-days, one was "many against one person", while the other was "one person against many".... for the former one the result is unknown yet, and perhaps, in e end it might not do much change to that dumb editor. but for the latter case, the result was seen on the D-day itself... so? well done, pal, for speaking up ;^)
