    A rant!

    I was listening to Joe & Petrina's moring show the other day on 91.3FM when he started to whine about having to pay $100 for a plastic tank,a starfish and hermit crab for his son. Apparently, the school organised a optional 'science field trip' which includes a 'starfish starter kit'. Who are they kidding. Do they expect the starfish and crab to survive in a plastic tank? I wonder how is the con-man who came up with this idea.

    Hahaha! that scheme is brilliant! except for the poor animals I think the possbile backlash the school will recieve from angry parents and possibly some animal welfare group is going to be a well deserved kick in the nads

    I'm so sick of government school admin/management and their inexcusable(and plain inhuman) incompetence.

    On another note... 91.3? is that a chinese station? I seem to have never heard of it..

    I don't understand the people here, why can't they leave the animals alone. See the poor cat and they must dismember it.

    If this 'nature appreciation' thingy results in the death of 20 starfish and crabs at one go, I think its better off telling the kids that the animals will kill them if they step within 20ft of it.

    Oh yes, 91.3 is the NTUC radio station, previously playing techno-beng stuff revamped into an Ah-Pek station for people like me

    This is so sad... Why must they follow every other station playing the same songs now?!

    I think pets should not be imposed on clueless young children. It's cruel to the pets if they receive improper care.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    What makes it worse is it was a SCHOOL that organised this... SCHOOLS are supposed to EDUCATE the young. Alas all i had when i was growing up were a bunch of old witches(Just read out of a textbook)

    Witches who, to this day, hire people to clean the fish pond because the water is always green... pfft, wonder where they got their degrees from...
