I know you guys are pretty tired right now from hearing about Janina’s excursion in the travesty that is the Bb. Pilipinas pageant show. I promise I won’t post anything about her as soon as I give my 2 cents worth on the issue. But before that I’d like to say something to some people [...]
In my wanderings of the blogsphere I came across a blog that criticized the Toronto Star, the most read newspaper in Canada, for downplaying the role of Islam in the ritual murder of Aqsa Parvez, a Muslim girl killed by her father for dishonoring their family. A link in the site led me to Muslims [...]
I did something different this Christmas. Instead of sending out Christmas text greetings to the people listed in my phonebook, I only let the messages I received to pile up in my phonebook. I did, however, text my replies to those who sent their greetings. This not only allowed me to save on Christmas spending, [...]
Photo taken from: Wikipedia:Halloween. It’s just past the Halloween season and people half a world away have just finished dressing up into all kinds of costumes and go trick or treating. I would have passed the holiday off as aloofly as if I didn’t even know academically what Halloween* was until I saw kids dressing [...]
In a show of utter contempt for all things politically decent, Gloria pardons Erap. I pity the prosecution lawyers. They spent 6 years of their lives for naught!

It’s fiesta time in the city but we Protestants wouldn’t have anything to do with it, that is except for binging food* prepared by Catholic hands and enjoying the carnival. I may sound like I go pamista during the season, but I do not. My first and last eating of fiesta food was way back [...]
Robert Jordan, author of the Wheel of Time saga has died, and I am grieving. It’s not because of the still unfinished book. Nothing has gotten my blood boiling these few hours more than the realization that there are people who “feel sad” with his death because he didn’t give them the book they’ve been [...]
How could the former President Erap be acquitted of perjury and still be convicted of plunder? I think his alleged perjury was an instrument in obtaining his plunder conviction. Is this some sort of compromise between the government and him? He says the government, as a compromise, offered to turn the other way if he [...]
It was supposedly the night before I left Cebu. My cousins wanted me to show me around their city, and they decided to bring me to 22nd Street, a comedy bar. The plan was for me to join them later since I had a date with my high school classmates, with one of whom I [...]
They say that: “A rolling stone gathers no moss.” I say: “Nobody has yet seen a stone rolling so long moss has started growing in it.”
