J-J-J-Jaded
Sam and I are in a taxi heading for Robinsons Ermita and this song is playing on the cabbie’s radio:
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Well, every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure
And again we ask each other a question that has come across [...]
I’ve never Kippled
I have always pessimistically thought that putting up a blog was an invitation for people to throw rocks at you. I was thinking exactly that when I first put up my blog at blogspot.

Anonymizing
One utility that has been on the internet for a long time — but of which I have just recently discovered the use — are anonymizers. What’s an anonymizer?

Beat the Heat
Kainggit noh? We all feel like getting in there with her, and thinking jeez why didn’t we get the bigger one so we all could get in with her. The answer is simple: mahal yung malaking pool noh!
Just this afternoon I set the big industrial stand fan five feet away from me as I sat [...]
Online Again!
Thanks to Chris, Lester and Webster of iCable (and Chet Asehan for recommending them) we are online again! The device marked in the photo above is the Motorola CyberSURFER Wave cable modem unit that iCable provides its customers. For the connection (and several feet of extra cable apart from the 150 ft they provide, I [...]
Stuff you can do
. . . while waiting for an internet connection
Contrary to what I earlier believed, I do have a choice when it comes to a broadband connection. I could go cable internet, and for that I chose belltel.ph’s iCable, as recommended by my internet cafe suki Chet. Buti nalang mabait si Chet, ok lang recommend nya [...]
