This made me smile. It is actually pasted onto one of the struts holding up the monorail.

Thanks LB. there were loads of them all over the place.

I am asked to join my friend to new a club in town next week called "Buddha Bar" :D

Where I live there are many asians and one particular man made it a mission to rip down these posters! He must've been buddhist and found it offensive. But he was not angry or anything. He just slowly pulled each and every one of them down and put them into recyling bins!

Ooh yes, I suppose it could be seen as offensive. I just assumed it was an Asian-run nightclub and that is why they had gone with the Buddha imagery (ie, to attract Asian clubbers).

Have fun, Connie.

I like it. Reminds me of my visit to South Korea. The big attraction there is the karaoke bars. They are everywhere.
