 Makati Standoff

Today, Trillanes walked out of his court hearing, walked around Makati, then decided to check-in to the Manila Peninsula. What the hell was he thinking?!? Or is he thinking at all? Does he and his cohorts think they are the only one who cares about this country? Does he think their approach is the only [...]



 Samsung MetroWear 2007

Tippi, my classmate in French, invited everyone in class to the Samsung Metrowear 2007 fashion show where she will be showcasing her latest designs along with those of other designers. Only three(?) of us actually went and just as well since the place was already packed as it was. We had to squeeze our way [...]



 Achmed The Dead Terrorist

I don’t laugh easy. Ask Izza who still owes me a drink for betting against this. But Jeff Dunham’s Achmed the Dead Terrorist act sure got me laughing. I even could have laughed out loud. Jeff Dunham is the man!



 Famous Half Pinoys

This morning Jem sent me this joke: Famous Half Pinoys: Jaime Ayala – half pinoy, half Spanish Henry Sy – half pinoy, half Chinese Lito Atienza – half pinoy, half Hawaiian shirt John Osmena – half pinoy, half pinay Prospero Pichay – half pinoy, half gulay Mike Arroyo – half pinoy, half baboy GMA – [...]



 Beowulf

 LinkSys WRT54G Version 7

 House Of Representatives Blast

I just arrived home last night when I learned from Izza about a blast at the House of Representatives. I immediately checked The Inquirer and realized something is really up because but it was not responding, probably overloaded with requests. Fortunately, ABS-CBN was and I was able to confirm that there was indeed a blast. [...]



 Rei Ayanami

This morning, Joy gave me good… heck… excellent news. She has pre-ordered for me the first of Kaiyodo‘s Fraulein Revoltech Line: Rei Ayanami!!! Pre-orders just started this month and it will actually come out only by January. Still, it’s good to already know she is coming my way. Can hardly wait! Thanks Joy!



 Lust, Caution

You probably heard about Lust, Caution because of its R rating and its supposedly hot sex scenes. Indeed the scenes are hot. Really hot, in fact. But that’s not all there is to it. Really. Behind it all is a well-crafted wartime espionage thriller. Set during World War II in Hong Kong and later Shanghai, [...]
