Dr. Balaji recently fired the first salvo in attempting to root out the source of Singapore's AIDS problem, and a significant cause is the homosexual community and their sex parties which used to be held in conjunction with National Day.

Mr. Brown, Mr. Miyagi and Cowboy Caleb then ridiculed the report and Dr. Balaji's hypothesis, which was in fact provided by an unnamed epidemiologist who no doubt remained anonymous lest the gay community corner him and infect him with AIDS. In addition, the trio also attempted to help clarify matters a bit.

(A) AIDS is spread by gays breathing on people (watch out, unnamed epidemiologist)
(B) Journalism has risen to new heights due to gays (sarcasm ok?). I'm sorry, journalism may have risen to new heights due to gays. (Just a hypothesis)
(C) The war in Iraq is caused by homosexuals (I think they hid the WMDs as well... hypothesis, you understand)

I'm sure if I'd wandered into more blogs, I'd found more sins than that.

Not to be outdone, $trait$ Time$ has returned fire, and shown why it was once the Best Asia Pacific Rim News Paper. Today's report has more sources who will collaborate with Dr. Balaji. There's Sam, David and Unknown Hong Kong Guy. If you check out Fridae.com (won't link there, in case I get blamed for promoting homosexuality, and thus AIDS. I don't want people to die because of me ok?), you might find these three going by the aliases Sam, Frodo and Gollum instead. Journalism has become really easy nowadays, with the proliferation of unnamed sources. It must be considered very hip nowdays to contribute to $trait$ Time$ without disclosing names. When you pay for the online version, you can even access 7 whole days of newspaper articles about Tom, Dick and Harry!

But then again, reading the things some people say, I think it's now understandable why some would remain anonymous.

[excerpt from $trait$ Time$]

But family life educator Koh Su Yin said: 'By having the parties, we are sending the message to young people that such a lifestyle is okay. It also desensitises and normalises a behaviour which would be construed intuitively as unnatural.

'We would not want young people to be attracted to the gay lifestyle as it undermines the basic family value of committed love, the importance of marriage and the stability of a family that constitutes mother- and father-love.'

Not everyone will have the audacity to paint all young people silly, stupid, naive and unopinionated AND imply that it's fine for old people to be attracted to the gay lifestyle in the same breath. Bravo Ms. Koh. Next time, parliament should make it a point to ban something if they want to teach young people a lesson. Don't want them to jaywalk? Ban cars so it is not considered jaywalking. Don't want them to take drugs? Ban all medicine in Singapore. Don't want them to be childless? Ban singlehood and exile the singles. Don't want locals to enter the casino? Ban them from Sentosa lor. Don't want people to dirty the streets? Ban the sale of chewing gum. Oh wait. Already kena banned. Forgot. Anyway, if we do that, we can be sure that brainless young people who think with their genitalia will not be intuitively desensitised. So simple, this policy-making business. I can do it also.

But of course, I must remain anonymous. So don't be surprised if you see "Cap'n Intrepid" appearing in the $trait$ Time$.
