SOUNDING BOARD is an outlet for opinions on good and crazy things going on at home (wherever I may be). All are welcome. You are not expected to bring anything except your common sense & sense of humor.
'If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get one million miles to the gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside.'

_____________________________________________
Another case of maid-cruelty-leading-to-death in Singapore. No, her name is not Flor. This time the wife (Tan) is being accused for, what else, maid abuse - for witholding information that her husband had assaulted their Indonesian maid, and for grabbing and pinching the breasts of their maid. (Her husband is now serving sentence for manslaughter - yes, the maid died - and four charges of maid abuse. Last year, the husband had whipped the maid with a cane, splashed her with hot water, jabbed her with the handle of a hammer, and burnt her lips and palms with a cigarette.) Damn. No comment. %$#@&*#@
