THIS BLOG TELLS HAPPY BIRTHDAY

July is a memorable month, not only that me and my oldest son was born on this month but also it was a paper anniversary of my blog. I'm quite happy about it because it share the birthday of some famous people like George Bernard Shaw, Kevin Spacey, Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stone, Kate Beckinsdale, Drew Barrymore, Sylvester Stallone, Princess Diana, Imelda Marcos...
Thank you for those who read and share my mind even the issue is so shallow. The truth is I hate to post blog in english 'coz my grammar is poor but I must admit the fact that writing in english has it's advantage, you create the impression that you are inteligent while writing the most stupid things... but who can stop me from writing of some foolish and non-sense things on my blog.
Oh, before I forgot the real issue here, it's my birthday tomorrow, to be exact every 2nd day of July. Couple of days ago I had some strange feelings how to accept that I become a golden boy.(yes few hours from now I turn 50) Scary, How can I deal with people who will call you "tatang" (old man) few years from now or sooner, but right now I am comfortable when they address me as "kuya" (old brother)
I don't want to look back to some of my misfortune, some regreting moments of my life, careers, lovelife etc..because I was really grateful to God who gave me those precious years good or bad. Now I was blessed w/ 2 kids and my wife, what can i say about her? she's an angel (don't get me wrong she's still alive) My life now is my family and it was all that matters to me.

If life were just, we would be born old and achieve youth about the time we'd save enough to enjoy it.

HAPPY FATHER' S DAY

Any man can be a father, but it takes a special person to be called Dad.


The idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought the idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Day sermon in 1909.
Having been raised by her father, William Jackson Smart, after her mother died , Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her, It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter a courageous, selfless, and loving man.
Sonora’s father born in June, so she chose to hold the the first Father’s Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.

Father’s Day was recognized by a Joint Resolution of Congress in 1956. In 1972, President Richard Nixon established a permanent national observance of Father’s Day to be held on the third Sunday of June.

Ang Blog na yata ang pinakamagandang pangyayari sa internet dahil dito ay napakaraming isipan at pananaw ang iyong matutuklasan hindi tulad dati na monopolisado lang ito ng iilan na manunulat sa diyaryo at magasin. Ngayon kahit sino ay pwedeng mag-blog sa iba't-ibang kategorya at hindi mo na rin problema ang matanggihan ng mga publikasyon dahil ikaw na rin ang awtor at patnugot nito. Ayon sa pag-aaral mahigit 200 libong pinoy na ang nagba-blog sa iba't-ibang kategorya, Hanap-buhay ito ng ilan, marami rin na ginagawa itong talambuhay, ang iba'y wala lang (tulad ko) pero ang nakakatuwa meron nabuboong magandang ugnayan sa mga blogista at ito ang magandang parte marami kang nagiging kaibigan na kasundo mo at kasalungat na rin sa takbo ng iyong isipan
Kaya blog na kaya mo ito, bro!

PINOY SINO KA NA?

Ang mga Pinoy sa ating henerasyon ngayon ay hindi mo na makikilala sa dami ng identidad, dumagsa ang napakaraming termino at katawagan sa kanila, marahil ang mga ito ay dahil na rin kakapusan sa buhay. Ang hostess at beylarina nuon ay naging GRO na at Japayuki ngayon, may mga pang-masa rin na pokpok sa kalsada, na sa napagkasunduan halaga ay pwede ng maibsan makamundong pagnanasa ng ilan sa mga hayok sa laman. May mga macho dancer na hinihimas ang kanilang mga ari habang nagsasayaw upang bigyan lang ng kasiyahan ang mga matrona at bakla. Sumulpot na rin ang mga dance instructor (DI) mga bayarang "Crying Ladies" sa Binondo, Mga nagkalat na TeleEvangelist at mga preacher sa kalsada at bus. Mga masahista at singer na bulag sa mall, footbridge at bangketa, Ang mga "Call Boy" na kadalasan kinakapit sa mga lalaking nagbebenta ng aliw ay kinakapit na rin sa mga "Barker" ng pasahero sa FX at Jeepney. Sa pagarankada ng Globalisasyon meron na tayong mga Overseas Contract Worker (OCW) mga bagong bayani sabi ng Gobyerno, na sa hanay ng mga ito ay matatagpuan natin ang mga seaman, domestic helper, mga hosto sa Japan, caregivers, mail order bride, at maging sa hanay ng mga propesyonal. Siguro Pinoy na rin ang bansag natin sa mga ss:
"Whistle Blower" (na ginagamit naman ng kongreso at senado para sa mga ekpose at hearing laban sa administrasyon).
Mga Pulitikong lumalabas sa mga "commercial ads".
Ang telebisyon na-nagbibigay ng kaunting aliw sa paulit-ulit na tele-drama na hango sa naman sa kwentong komiks nuon ay siyang kinahihibangan ng masa mula sa pag-giling ni Marimar hanggan sa pag-langoy ni Dyesebel.
Ngayon ang pagkatao ng mga Pinoy ay lubhang bumaba mula sa pagiging timawa sa pagpila sa bigas hanggan sa pagbebenta ng mga laman-loob para mabuhay lamang sa mundong ito. Umaalsa ang masa habang patuloy na nagmamahal ang arina.
Halina kalkalin natin ang basura at magkunwaring ayos lang ang buhay at pamumuhay. Hay, Pinoy....Sino ka na ba?

BIRTH TEST

I received this email and its quite interesting, but don't take it seriously...



Once you have discovered your Birth Number, forward this emaill to the rest of your friends, including the one who sent this to you. Put your number in the Subject and Pass it on!

Have fun!
Your birth date describes who we are, what we are good at and what our inborn abilities are. It also points to what we have to learn and the challenges we are facing.

To figure out your Birth Number, add all the numbers in the birth Date together, like in the example, until there is only one digit. A Birth Number does not prevent you from being anything you want to be, it will just color your choice differently and give you a little insight.

Example March 20, 1950

3 + 20 + 1950 = 1973

1 + 9 + 7 + 3 = 20

2 + 0 = 2




Keep going until you end up with a single digit number. 2 is the Birth Number to read for the birth date in the example.
