It's Just Another New Year's Eve

Bottles of Champagnes, Beers and Bourbons Red, White & Blue Balloons, Caviars, Cigarettes and Cons. New Year's Eve. Baboons and Buffoons romp in smoke- filled rooms. Anyway, if you want to drink and be merry tonight, DON'T DRIVE . Treat your Lady to a night of romantic Carriage Ride in the snow and have those ice- cold Bud Light in hand instead... Oops. Happy New Year!

Crap Mentality

Wanna know the reason why the Police took a long time to release the result of their very thorough investigation as to the exact origin of the Glorietta Mall Blast? It was because of the pressure that they got from the Special Agents of the FBI who helped them gather the pieces of evidence in the blast site and want the report suppressed until they got clearance from their superiors in Quantico. But the PNP Leadership in a rare show of defiance to Uncle Sam and probably bitten by the Patriotic Bug, released the result of their investigation anyway since they were afraid of the consequences that their findings will do to the lives of the more than 90 million Filipinos living here and abroad. The PNP Leadership doesn’t want themselves to be caught literally and figuratively with their pants- down especially when it comes to National Security. They have learned their lessons from past experiences when all kinds of crap were thrown at them from all angles by angry Filipinos for ever

Hail India!

The Geeks are No Freaks

I have reached my level of incompetence and I’m sure Mr. Peter whose Principle I first encountered when I was in high school two decades ago when I got hold of his book from Ol’ GrandPa’s bookshelf is probably grinning in his grave and probably saying, I told you so?! You see, my desk top computer crashed and with it all my files gone kaput (or until I find my recovery discs from the heaps of CDs scattered all over the apartment) -- and with the meltdown goes thousands of my personal stuffs from pictures to writings to videos to music that dates back to about three years ago. Damn Windows, I’ll probably switch to Mac. So, PC or Mac anyone? Good thing I was able to back them up in my laptop, actually not all of them. But it's OK. Some files I was able to save in CDs and some on-line. But it’s better than nothing, eh? Maybe it’s about time to buy an X- drive, huh? Yeah, one of the reasons I made & maintain several websites was to back up my stuffs for free. Thus, I have seve

The Leader of the Band

Believe In Me If I could ever say it right And reach your hostage heart Despite the doubts you harbor Then you might Come to believe in me. The life I lead is not the kind That gives a woman peace of mind I only hope someday you'll find That you can believe in me. Those other loves that Came before Mean nothing to me anymore But you can never be quite sure And will not believe in me. Too many hearts have been broken Failing to trust what they feel But trust isn't something That's spoken And love's never wrong When it's real. If I could only do one thing Then I would try to write and sing A song that ends your questioning And makes you believe in me. Too many hearts have been broken Failing to trust what they feel But trust isn't something That's spoken And love's never wrong When it's real. If I could only do one thing Then I would try to write and sing A song that ends your questioning And makes you believe in me Oh, you can believe in me. Dan Fogel

I first heard of the rumor that he will be Journey ’s new lead singer several months ago. I was skeptical at first not because of his talent but because I never thought not even in my wildest dream that one of my favorite rock bands, Journey will pick somebody outside of the Continental United States much less a Filipino as their new lead singer. It was the stuff of urban legends but it turned out to be true, in fact too good to be true--that it was guitarist Neal Schon who found him through YouTube and contacted him and invited him to audition for the band. Here’s Neal Schon in his own words, “I was frustrated about not having a singer,” explains guitarist Neal Schon, “so I went on YouTube for a couple of days and just sat on it for hours. I was starting to think I was never going to find anybody. But then I found The Zoo and I watched a bunch of different video clips that they had posted. After watching the videos over and over again, I had to walk away from the computer and let

Mary Carey, the Porn star who once challenged the Terminator, Arnold Schwarzenneger for the governorship of Cali-Foo-Nyaah is on the news again and she's planning to auction her recently removed breast implants for charity, the Breast Cancer Research. How’s that for 15- minutes of Fame in the guise of a good cause, huh? No, she’s not done with it though, she’s gunning for a bigger and better(?) pair of Bs from 36D to 36 DDDs. I don’t know what’s with some men err women in this case where they want to change their God- given assets to monstrous proportions and yet it’s not even that good nor better nor beautiful than its former size err self. I guess we could put all the blame on Pamela Anderson for making Silicone implants the in- thing since her Boobwatch err okay, Baywatch days and Tommy Lee Sexcapades. Heck, even Borat wants a piece of her cake and eat it too. We can’t blame him though for aiming for one of America’s iconic Bombshell. I’m sure it will benefit his movie sequel
