AS THE AMERICANS were celebrating their 232nd Independence Day on July 4, 2008 I took another major step in shrinking my computer. Just about six months ago I dumped the laptop in favor of the first of the much smaller and substantially less expensive Netbooks (aka sub-notebooks or mini laptops). After two Netbooks (yes, I [...]
HERE’S ANOTHER NICE STORY with an important lesson, shared by Mr. Rico Gonzales, CEO of Philips Electronics and Lighting, Inc. to his management team, and forwarded to me by e-mail by my ex-girlfriend.
I copied and pasted it here verbatim.

MIND BOGGLING! THAT’s how I would describe the You Tube statistics I stumbled upon recently.
Below is an excerpt of that statistics which was culled by Digital Ethnography.* But while these numbers indeed boggle the mind as they are, do take note that these are as of March 17, 2008 and are, therefore, already obsolete!

I WATCHED THE DARK KNIGHT last Wednesday (July 23) with my ex-girlfriend. It was awesome! The movie is almost 3 hours but I didn’t seem to notice. Multiple orgasms guaranteed! Oops sorry, bad language. What I meant to say is that the movie seems to have several climaxes, so much so that for at least [...]

MY EX-GIRLFRIEND AND I went to Eastwood City two Saturdays ago to bring some documents in relation to our condo unit at the Eastwood Excelsior.
After the photo-finish completion of our mission (we made it to the admin office of Eastwood Excelsior a few minutes before their closing time of 12:30PM), we were famish.
I would have [...]
WHEREAS ABOUT THREE MONTHS ago I explored the mountains of Turkey and Iran with Bob Cornuke in search of Noah’s Ark, last month (June) I hitched a ride on the Rozier Balloon called Breitling Orbiter 3 with Swiss pilot Bertrand Piccard and English co-pilot Brian Jones.
A Rozier Balloon, by the way, works on a [...]
MARIELLE TURNED FIVE on July 8.
<Click this link to play Marielle’s favorite dance tune: makulay-ang-buhay>
We started her birthday celebration by giving her Nursery 2 class in Merville Sacred Heart School a little blowout. We brought a birthday cake and ordered snacks from Jollibee. We prepared loot bags, too, for Marielle’s classmates.
Her mom gave her a [...]
I’VE BEEN BLOGGING about our exploits in the Delbros AB Normal Club without really explaining what the club is about. About two weeks ago I got an e-mail from a reader asking what “AB Normal” means. “Do I mean ‘abnormal’?” she asked.
This blog entry is my reply to her and to all of those who [...]
I KNEW THAT my friend, Mitz Picardal, is really serious with his new-found hobby when he sent me a copy of his award-winning photo dubbed Banca Smoke earlier this year.

AS HAS BEEN MY ROUTINE for several months now, I started my day in the office today by opening my Firefox Web browser which will automatically launch my blog site.
My first reaction was to panic as I noticed that the latest post in my blog is dated June 28. Today is July 17. Between these two dates I [...]
