Robert Downey Jr. is Ironman
I first fell in love with Robert Downey Jr in Heart and Souls, where he had a coterie of souls with unfinished businesses as his guardian angels. I almost drooled over our t.v. set when I saw him sing with Sting in Ally McBeal. He made deadpan hilarious in Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang, and [...]
Listen to this lady and weep
Her name is Madonna Decena and she is singing for her kids.
The show is called Britain’s Got Talent (American Idol in one of its various incarnations). There’s over thirty videos of her performance on YouTube, but I found this one to load the fastest, probably because its one of the later ones, and there were [...]
Write your congressman.
In the U.S. whenever a constituent wanted to express his opinion regarding bills or issues in his political district, he would be enjoined to write to his congressman. More so if the constituent would like to know how his congressman stands on the same bills and issues.
I had never written to a congressman, because I [...]
Two from Gary Granada
Laro ni Idol Manny Pacquiao ngayon. Tigil daw lahat ng bagay ngayong araw na ito. Tigil blog, tigil putukan, tigil traffic, tigil nakawan (pero sa kalye lang yon; sa gobyerno kahit anong araw me nakawan parin).
Kaya si Pareng Gary na muna ang bahala sa inyong lahat.
Sophia mia!
I remember a time when women were rounded and full and voluptuous, not skinny and almost cadverous. I remember women like Sofia Loren and Gina Lollobrigida, Catherine Deneuve, and our own Stella Suarez and Divina Valencia. Not just skin and bones these women were, but curvaceous and rounded. And they sure could fill out a [...]
Missing Horatio
I haven’t been downloading any movies lately and certainly not any of my favorite CSI:Miami Season 6 episodes. Been busy with work and more work and keeping the bandwidth at home at optimum performance meant no large downloads, after all four of us share this connection.
I’ve always liked CSI:Miami. Some CSI afficionados may think [...]
Halleluuu, hallelujaah
Ngayong gabi
Ako ang sundalo mo
Habang ika’y tulog
Ako’y gising nakabantay sa iyo,
Sinong sawa, sinong galit
Sumigaw ngayong gabi
Halleluuu, hallelujaah
–Bamboo
Our Navy Seabees band during a recruitment sortie by the Philippine Navy in one of the malls in the city. When they sang this song they out-bambooed Bamboo himself. Galing nyo, Sarge!
If I’d been 25 years younger and [...]
When Mother’s Day is also your “Mom’s” birthday
I spent my earliest years with my father’s big sister. Her name is Tita, which is short for Teresita. She is my Auntie Tita. She had a house in Quezon City, but it’s not there anymore, sold many years ago to a Chinese businessman who wanted the land but not the house. The house was [...]
Saved!
Yoshikatsu Kawaguchi is the heart-throb figure of the Japan squad, attracting admirers for his talent as well as an army of female followers with his handsome looks. Kawaguchi enjoys immense popularity in Japan, but it is his goalkeeping prowess which has made the 29-year-old the star he is today.

Friday Night Out
It’s the little surprises that get you.
Friday night traffic, stuck in EDSA crossing in a bus in the rain, texting Sam who is happily browsing around at PowerBooks MegaMall. After forever, the bus door opens, conductor tells us to get off—MegaMall stop. I get off, look up, and realize it’s a long walk in [...]
