Don't break the law.
I think it takes SKILL and EFFORT to break the law there.
I'm totally confused.
he's saying pizzleboy ain't got no law breaking skillz
Yup, but since things like spitting on the ground or even owning chewing gum are illegal there... (ok, I've heard that the latter has been loosened somehow.)

I still have a T-shirt saying "Singapore is a FINE city", listing fines for some ridiculous offenses.

You can't buy gum, nor can you bring it in for the purposes of selling, but you can chew it.  also, don't spit it out.  I brought a 3 month supply.

You know what else is funny?  I went to Sim Lim Square to look for a new camera.  I think I'm going to get the Canon A610.  Anways, I know I can buy it from the US or canada for about $350 Sing dollars.  So i tried going into a couple shops and they are quoting me $523 - $480, which I obviously think is too much.  So I start to haggle with a couple of them and they won't budge, so I tells them that I can buy it elsewhere yadayada, and they basically tell me to buy it there and get out of the store. 

That's got to be a first.  Getting kicked out of a store for haggling.

Hey, it makes sense. If you can get it elsewhere for a price they can't beat, you are obvioulsy lost as a customer to them. All time spent on you is wasted. Plus, you may make other customers aware of thae fact that their prices are not so great.

I just got back from Singapore a week or so ago. I was there on a two week business trip. If you like clubs go to Ministry of Sound over at Clark Quay(pronounced key). The zoo is awesome and the night safari, which is pretty much a zoo at night is also awesome. Go shopping on Orchard Road and ride the subway around to Chinatown, little india, and the arab markets. You can find some decent stuff there to buy. Ummm...I dunno, what do you like to do?
