Hello my dear critters...

Just a quick Happy Chinese New Year greeting to all who celebrate the event and for those who don't... hope you get LOADS of angpows anyway! :-) Not that I am encouraging you to be materialistic or anything but hey... this is the ONLY time we are actually rewarded for being single... hahahahah

Also, a HUGE BIG THANK YOU to all of you who have contributed to this site in some way. We have already surpassed 5000 hits and for a website that started out as a class discussion in August 2007, I think we are doing pretty darn good and should give ourselves a pat on the back. But not to rest on our laurels and be lazy... of course... critters always have to ensure their critter brains are fully oiled and ready to run for any occasion.

To the newcomers and new people who recently were invited to this space, a hearty big welcome to you. Please do feel free to post your comments as well as upload new entries. As you can tell, there are those among you who are good at posting pictures so, this adds a nice visual dimension to our blogging world. Thank you Kenny and Cheryl specifically!

And finally, here are some links that were posted by some of you in another space which I think would be handy to archive here. So, for those of you who want to read the articles you didn't get to read the last time... here they are:

Our next critical thinking discussion meeting will be happening soon, after CNY. Watch out for more info your emails. From now on, news about CT meetings will be sent to your directly via email just in case you don't check back here often enough. We will be having a very special guest to our next meeting and a great movie to boot.

Until then... take care, stay healthy and thank you for making my critter life all that more interesting for my having met all of you :-)
