The last straw? Not!
I had started to write this post with just the first part of the title, ending at the question mark. But recent events has forced me to append the exclamation.
When I first heard the news of the Fort Bonifacio stand-off I thought this might be it, the proverbial last straw for the Marines. And perhaps [...]
Not the same banana
Definitely not the same banana, Sam’s new home is. We (actually I) decided (and he meekly went along) that since we were on a new webhost we should change templates as well. His choice was the next generation Kubrick theme K2, with quite a few customizations implemented by yours truly.
You can download K2 from [...]
. . . Plus c’est la meme chose
It’s ironic to think that the person we are trying to get rid of is probably the most qualified leader we have had in 20 years. This is what I heard from my boss earlier today, as he proceded to enumerate the occupations of our presidents from Marcos (a soldier and an orator), Cory (we [...]
Moved In!
Say hello to our new webhost, Bayanhosting. Where the connections are faster, the service is great, and where people actually do something to help you out.
New theme, again, although I can’t say I’ve settled for this one, but I do think it’s time for me to stop fiddling with the themes and get on with [...]
Moving along
Around this same time last year Sam and I migrated from the free bloghosting service of blogspot.com to paid hosting from ploghost.com, and took the leap from Blogger to WordPress.
There must be something about February moving into March, because we are moving house again, this time from Ploghost to Bayanhosting. Why are we moving? A [...]
Say it isn’t so!

Users of Apple computers were warned recently to protect themselves, after the existence of a new kind of worm virus emerged.
The Leap-A worm, which spreads through instant [...]
Sneaky Marketing
I noticed a few comments made on my blog recently by users with names like “disaster recovery services” and “12dailypro” that have made it past the normal checks of Spam Karma. They have all the appearances of legitimate comments with messages such as “I look forward to coming back to read more. I love [...]
Party!
Maia couldn’t have her birthday party on Valentine’s day because it was a school day, so we decided to throw her party on the Sunday after. She had all her friends from the subdivision plus all of Ama’s family. It was her first children’s party and she played the perfect host, going from table [...]
In search of the “Perfect” Theme
Been tinkering big time with my themes lately, in hopes of arriving, once and for all, at the perfect, most appropriate theme for this blog. You might say I keep redecorating this blog to compensate for not being able to redecorate my own house (but even that will get a minor redo tomorrow, pics to [...]
Lazy Valentines Evening
Really lazy evening this, when we didn’t even bother to buy/rent DVDs to watch. And there was no need for it, with Star Movies showing A Walk in the Clouds early in the evening, and then Love Actually after that. Not for us the mad rush to posh restaurants on this night, definitely not a [...]
