To Whom It May Concern! Oct 3, 2008 1:27 pm
Mood: Peace, 305 Views
Well, I guess you know who you are. Since you blocked me off for posting comments in your blog first of all, i'm not stalking you coz you and I were online/YM friends for almost two years. You just can't face the fact that you have fooled and deceived a lot of the chatters in ELR including myself by making up foolish names, and dramas to go along with it until I got you busted for the third time.

I offered my "PEACE" with you yesterday but it sounds like you are gearing up into the battle zone which could get ugly, you know! I have the ammo prep up and getting ready also into the war zone if that's what you want my friend! It's the magic of copying and pasting and saving all the data into my hard drive if you know what I mean.

I know for a fact that you are not a Registered Nurse, a Lady Trojan player, a postal worker, a former US Army, A UCLA Bruin student.............need I say more??? I have few more in my sleeves, ya know!

Don't you remember that YOU and I made a bogus profile together as I provided you a bogus picture of a Russian blonde and you used that picture as yourself? We were having tons of fun coz guys were drooling for that "blonde chic"

All i'm telling you is please stop fooling people around in the chatrooms and pretending to be someone else. Please get real and be yourself!

BTW.....the correct spelling is "THEIR" not "THIER" This is the word that i've been telling you about in YM that has been giving me a clue who you are going back to your original profile and all the blogs you wrote and the comments you posted on other people's blogs. A person who has a Master's degree will not mispell this simple English word! There is another word that you keep mispelling but I will keep that for now.

Again.....PEACE! Life is too short for fighting and cuzzing my friend!

***CHANGE - Politicians' Buzz Word *** Jun 22, 2008 3:58 pm
Mood: 11, 194 Views
The buzzword of this political campaign season is 'CHANGE'.

Candidates toss it around without really saying what they want to change to.

There's an old sea-story in the Marine Corps about a lieutenant who inspected his Marines in the field, and afterward told the 'Gunny' that the men smelled bad.

The lieutenant suggested the solution might be they should change their underwear.

The Gunny responded, 'Aye, aye, sir, I'll see to it immediately!'

He then went straight into the squad tent and announced, 'The lieutenant thinks you guys smell bad, and wants you to change your underwear.

Smith, you change with Jones, McCarthy, you change with Witkowskie, and Brown, you change with Schultz. Get to it!'

The moral of the story: A candidate may promise change in Washington D.C. or in any other capital places in any other country, but don't count on things smelling any better.

***The Boston Massacre*** Jun 20, 2008 11:07 am
Mood: 19, 270 Views
As one of my friends sarcastically described what happened in the NBA Finals.....The CELTICS OBLITERATED the OVERRATED LAKERS.......LOLZ

I love it! As a Northern CA residence, naturally, I hate the LAKERS myself. It's all hyped since they play in a big market and where Hollywood folks hang around as you can see they jumped on the bandwagon during their home games in the Staples Center.

I was so ecstatic when the CELTICS SPANKED, DEMOLISHED, TRASHED, EMBARRASSED, BURIED, SMOKED, ANNIHILATED the Showtime troops.

But seriously speaking, it was the Celtics leadership who made it all happen going back to the years when Arnold "Red" Auerbach was their fearless leader.

Because of "Red", the Celtics are one of America's most racially liberated institutions. Because Auerbach's thinking and approach were so ahead of their time, the Celtics are still to this day completely misunderstood.

A Finals roster composed of a dozen black men, led by a black head coach provoked pride, ecstasy and pandemonium in a city and a fan base that are often accused of bigotry. For a moment, Boston seemed to love this collection of last-minute-thrown-together Celtics as much as the Larry Bird squads that were pieced together and groomed over a decade.

Obviously, this does not mean that Boston is without racial flaw. It is no different than any other ethnically diverse American city. Our history shows that when things go well, we enthusiastically come together; and when things go bad, we retreat and point fingers, often along color lines.

Now, the latest Celtics team isn't all-black for any particular reason other than general manager Danny Ainge had the freedom to construct his roster without consideration of race because of Auerbach's legacy.

Good leadership is so liberating and necessary and uplifting.

Go GREEN.......Go CELTICS!!!

Friends I will remember you,
think of you.........
Pray for you.

And when another day is through
I'll still be friends with you

And the gifts of growing old
Are the stories to be told
Of the feelings more precious than gold

And when another day is through
I'll still be friends with you!

<<<<<<-- Thanks Lola Grace for sharing and letting me use this picture. Don't wanna be tagged for "copyright" violation

Sorta slow day! I was trying to download songs in my IPOD and one of my favorite Sharon's songs ....a flash from the past! A song that reminds me a lot of things as a highschool dude in Zambales and now approaching middle age in CA having some "salt and pepper" hair and few years down the road it would be all "white hair"

Manang Smiley....you know who you are...as you know I have my own version....ha ha ha

Cheers.......

Kung tayo'y matanda na
Sana'y di tayo magbago
Kailan man nasaan ma'y
Ito ang pangarap ko
Makuha mo pa kayang
Ako'y hagkan at yakapin ooooooh
Hanggang pagtanda natin
Nagtatanong lang sa `yo
Ako pa kaya'y ibigin mo
Kung maputi na ang buhok ko

Pagdating ng araw
Ang `yong buhok
Ay puputi na rin
Sabay tayong mangangarap
Nang nakaraan sa `tin

Ang nakalipas ay ibabalik natin ooooooh
Ipapaalala ko sa `yo
Ang aking pangako
Na ang pag-ibig ko'y laging sa `yo
Kahit maputi na ang buhok ko

Ang nakalipas ay ibabalik natin hmmmmmm
Ipapaalala ko sa `yo
Ang aking pangako
Na ang pag-ibig ko'y laging sa `yo
Kahit maputi na ang buhok ko
Kahit maputi na ang buhok ko

A Pinoy Leading JOURNEY (Arnel Pineda) Jun 9, 2008 3:15 pm
Mood: Proud to be a Pinoy, 723 Views
The Headline.....JOURNEY AT the Pavillion in Concord, CA

WOW......I was mesmerized, speechless, stunned, blown away at first by Arnel Pineda's voice. The new front man for the rock group JOURNEY! It was so incredible. His voice and that of the former lead man Steve Perry is somewhat on the wavelength. Very strange but true. After all these years, I thought Steve Perry's voice was irreplacable with that distinctive, high pitch voice but man........Arnel has the whole package.

Arnel Pineda who used to sing with Cal Jam in Olongapo City has made it big, touring with the legendary JOURNEY. Finally, the Pinoy talent has been recognized. Never in my wildest dream that a Pinoy will be their new front man.

Arnel came from a humble beginning in an area where I grew up as a Navy brat in Subic Bay Naval Station performing their gigs alongside Magsaysay Drive few miles away from the main entrance at the old American base.

To those youngters that does not know JOURNEY, they are a rock super group who had big hits in the late 1970's and early 1980's. Hits such as OPEN ARMS, FAITHFULLY, DON'T STOP BELIEVING, WHO's CRYING NOW, LIGHTS, etc etc.

The group JOURNEY are based here in San Francisco area where as the song LIGHTS was written for such city......"When the lights go down to my city....and the sun shines on the bay. I wanna go back to my city by the bay."

I've seen the original JOURNEY in my younger years performed at the Shoreline Amphitheater alongside with Eric Clapton in Mountain View, CA early 1980's with Steve Perry as the front man. I would have never thought in 100 years that a voice such as Steve Perry's would be replaced and with that to be a Pinoy! His voice is incrdible. Arnel Pineda has it all The dude can sing it all. He has deep moving voice and soul

Arnel, you are the MAN! You indeed make me a very proud Pinoy brother. You are the new ambassador of the Philippines. More power to you and I salute you.

MABUHAY!!!

***Life is a TRIP*** Jun 3, 2008 10:08 am
Mood: Aloha Time, 311 Views
It's been a month and a half since I've spent few minutes chatting in ELR (English Language Room). I sure do miss my online friends but now I realized that i've been wasting a lot of precious time hanging around in FFF.

I was in Orange County (Southern CA) last month attending my niece's wedding. Not to be biased, it was a lovely and wonderful garden wedding in Irvine, CA atop the Strawberry Farm Golf Course Club. Some pictures are posted in Friendster account for my friendster buddies.

The little girl his uncle used to babysit, drove and picked from grade school is now grown up and happily married. Time really flies and i'm really really getting old..........ha ha ha.

I also had the chance to see some close highschool friends and get to hang around the beach area and reminisced good 'ole days as usual.

Soon I realized...."Life's a Trip." Since i'm medically retired now, single and financially stable, something click......why not travel every 3 months or so before it's too late.

As soon as I got back to San Francisco area, I phoned my buddy in Hawaii. I asked him if he has plans for Labor Day weekend and he said nothing really. "I'm just trying to figure out what's ahead of me since I sold one of my houses" was his answer.

Okay, I will call you back in half an hour" was my response. As soon as I hanged up the phone with him, I grabbed my American Express and booked 6 day vacation 2 blocks off Waikiki Beach.

Then I phoned him back, "Edward, take one week leave. I will be there Aug 30 thru 6 Sep" as I told him. Let me call Johnny (another HS friend) in Seattle just in case he wants to join since there's an extra bed in the condo where i'm staying and it's all paid for" was my quick response.

Sure enough, Johnny in Seattle was excited 'bout the plans as he said he will file for his leave first and will let us know if he can fly out from Seattle to Honolulu that week.

Dang......now I can really relate when some people say "Life's a Beach" but for me "Life is a TRIP!"

ALOHA..........

***Taking a break from ELR May 13, 2008 12:09 pm

Taking a break....

Late spring and the weather has been gorgeous lately. I've been trying to keep myself busy shopping, downloading songs, and spring cleaning.

I mailed a Big Balikbayan Box to my house in Pinas mostly clothes and personal items jst in case I decide to fly to Manila at a moment's notice since im now retired and no time factor in taking vacations.

Oh yeah, that $600 rebate check from the US Government for a single person.....it's gone. Swiped my American Express twice at CostCo for 2 IPODS that has 80 Gigs that I can download 20,000 songs. One for me and a gift for the other one.

I love the new technology. I can't keep up....LOLZ Not too long ago I bought a DVD camcorder, now they have one that doesn't need a DVD but instead it has a built in memory or an option where you can use a memory stick.

Somehow I'm feeling a lot better and stronger and hoping in a few more montns, I don't need some assistance goin out shopping and be on my own again.

Me and mom so with the rest of the family are all flying to Orange County/Riverside (Souther CA) next week until the following Monday 26 May *Memorial day. Better to fly than driving nowadays with the price of gas at $4/gallon.

My niece is getting married. It also happens that I have some highschool friends around the area and they are anticipating for my arrival so we can hang around with each other for few days in So Cal. It should be fun.

Gosh I haven't had Barong Tagalog since I was in highschool back in Pinas and I get to wear one on the wedding day, May 25th.....yipeeeeeee! It will be interesting. I had to order one for this special occassion. Pictures will be posted in my Friendster's for those who are in my network.

I haven't been logging into FFF for the past 3 weeks and I haven't been to ELR for that period of time either. Things not interesting anymore for some reasons. I miss the good ole days when the room was fun and friendly but that atmosphere is gone.

Anyway, friends in ELR and YM, hope ALL is well with you guys. Time for some sun and fun again.

PEACE! God bless and take care for now......

***I Luv the 80's *** May 1, 2008 5:03 pm
Mood: reminiscing, 524 Views
It was 1983. Ronald Reagan tagged the USSR an "evil empire." And more important, Mc Donald the McNuggets in the United States.

But to me, there were the movies. This was the year that produced several iconic films of the '80's. Watching these movies as a young Generation "X" (Gen Xer) had such an effect on me that they practically infiltrated my DNA.

On the 25th anniversary, here are my choices of the 1983's best of cinematic gems and always be a classic in my collections. So grab a McNugget and let's stroll down in the memory lane.

-Scarface: with the brillance of Al Pacino, the horror of his Cuban accent to shout the classic line, "Say hello to my little friend!" when introducing a shorter colleague. It was a classic mobster movie depicting the rise and fall of a gangster.

- The Big Chill: with Kevin Klein and Glenn Close and a group of college buddies reuniting after several years. As someone who hadn't been to college yet, it was very encouraging to see "old people" still know how to have a good time. Sadly, I am now one of those "old people.

- Risky Business: the ultimate highschool male fantasy, a beautiful woman (Rebecca De Mornay), and joy rides in Dad's Porsche. In my opinion, this movie was the one that catapulted Tom Cruise to super stardom. He genuinely captured the angst of suburban high school existence. There was that underwear dance, Tom dancing on a couch in a cute and career enhancing way.

-Trading Places: Eddie Murray, one of the great comedians and Dan Aykroyd that all begun with $1 bet! on what would happen if the rich and the poor switch places. It was the greatest wager in film history.

- National Lampoon's Vacation: Chevy Chase plays Clark Griswold who leads his family across America for a vacation. I loved this movie coz I lived this movie. I remember goin to San Diego/Southern California from San Francisco area the first time for a 10 hours plus drive with my brother in law together with my sister and niece squeeze in a Ford Mustang fighting in the back seat between stops and after visiting relatives. It was a torture hearing my niece saying...."are we there yet?"

Yes....for me 25 years later, these are my classic movies. What about you.....do you have or do you remember your classic movies of the 1980's not necessarily the ones from 1983. Tell me and why?
