E-heads Should Have Their Reunion Gig at the Sunken Garden!
I was going through my usual ceremony of browsing through the Net for whatever content worth blogging every morning. As the news about the “unthinkable” reunion concert of premier Pinoy rock band Eraserheads this August 30 at the CCP Grounds is fast becoming a reality, there was this particular post in one of my Yahoogroup [...]
How showing off your baby penis can get you celebrity status
Who would ever forget that genre-bending, seminal grunge album by Nirvana called “Nevermind”? I remember how the dark-toned lyrics, shrieking choruses and whaling guitar riffs shaped a new breed of culture that time. Nirvana opened the floodgates for other Seattle-based Grunge bands to shine, making the trio the legends of their time while making an [...]
With SMS rates cut into P0.50, what would you do with the other 50?
Can you “pasa-load” me?
Call it a relief or not, telcos gave in to Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo’s request of slashing inter-network SMS rate into half (P0.50) during her State Of the Nation Address (SONA) earlier this week. The National Telecommunications Communications said that this will run until October, good for three months.There are also [...]

Maybe because it starts to get labeled as an endless litany of the so-called “achievements” of the government during [...]
When Love, Friendship and How Not to F#*k Up Your Life Becomes Hi-Fi

Oil Price Hike: An Intoxicated Conspiracy Theory
We are all feeling it already. The world seems to be on thin ice. Even my dog is already skinny because our ration of dog food (read: food leftovers) from the “carinderia” (food stall) in front of us isn’t that as much as it used to be. And I am beginning to notice that my [...]
What’s your kickazz Dark Knight song?
While the phenomenon that is The Dark Knight currently wreaks havoc at the tills, I can’t help but wonder on the lack of star power of its original soundtrack. Not that I am not taking away anything from Hans Zimmer & James Newton Howard (who, by the way, are two of the most prolific musical [...]
Like, yeah. Hello World.
They say the blog is one’s journal. An extension of the self. A window to vent rants, musings or whatever it is the demented mind wants to shout out. It is a parallel dimension of the virtual interaction in the current social phenomenon. An impetus of a changing world.
It is in this nature that I [...]
