I puzzled over how to give away this domino in Singapore. I keep eating at very busy little food stands where nobody speaks much English. And I sure speak neither Chinese nor Hindi! But, this afternoon, I wandered into a coffee shop staffed by two English speaking women. I explained that I wanted to buy coffee for the next person who came in. They seemed amenable to the idea, and I saw them hand the domino over to the next young man who walked through the door. He was a straight fellow and didn't even smile, but I saw him looking over the instructions and flipping the domino over and over. With luck, you'll hear from him. This coffee cost more than any meal I've eaten here, so it was not exactly a cheapskate maneuver either.

Got the invitation to try it from Herb. I like the idea but will just have landed in Singapore on the 16th. We'll see if I can figure out how to do this there.

This Domino was created for Topple Two Night. On May 16, 2008 people all around the country will perform a random act of kindness and buy dinner for a stranger. We hope that the recipients will feel inspired and share their story and pass on the domino.
