Nostalgic Neurons

'A' is for Alliteration, which is defined as 'Use of the same consonant at the beginning of each stressed syllable in a line of verse'.
Writers of Justice League of America comics are obviously fond of alliteration. Here are a list of alliterative titles given to JLA superheroes that I can remember off the top of my head:

Flash aka 'Sultan of Speed' or 'Monarch of Motion' or 'Scarlet Speedster'.
Hawkman aka 'Flying Fury' or 'Aerial Ace' or 'Winged Wonder'.
Batman aka 'Masked Manhunter' or 'Caped Crusader'.
Atom aka 'Tiny Titan'.

I have one in my head now... the 'Wanton Wars', cos I just rode back from my first bowl of Cho Kee wanton mee. Location is Old Airport Rd food centre. 2 wanton stalls separated by only 1 or 2 stalls, in the row facing the main road, named Hua Kee and Cho Kee respectively. Apparently, Cho Kee has received more accolades, and no doubt, it's the flashier stall with its numerous displayed articles and awards, AND it's electronic queueing system. You make your order, receive a number, and go to collect your order when your number comes up on the red LED sign.
I have tried both... verdict? Cho Kee's noodles are wet and smooth and easy to slurp down. It's wanton is delicious. However, Hua Kee's noodles has a killer chilli-mix which I instantly loved the moment I tasted my first mouthful. The winner? Hua Kee.
