March 3, 2012March 4, 2012 · Leave a comment ·

Sorry, I missed updating my blog. I’ve been away where my only Internet connection should’ve been my old reliable Smartbro plug-it. Except that… this one pops up on the screen. Of course, I couldn’t report it since I don’t have any connection… like duh? So … Continue reading Help! How’d you work with Smartbro on a Mac OS X Lion?

Sometimes you just have to ride

February 24, 2012February 25, 2012 · Leave a comment ·

I’VE had this fear of horses throughout a major portion of my childhood and adult life; after being bitten by one when I was in sixth grade. Yes, bitten. Our neighbor had a horse; just your regular Pinoy workhorse, and not those giant Arabians. It … Continue reading Sometimes you just have to ride

IT was the eve of Maan’s birthday and Kublai’s gang gathered for food and wine. The after dinner talk was a very long one that spanned topics from how many architecture schools give more premium on design rather than functionality of a structure and thus … Continue reading Maan’s birthday frog

HAVING seen the devastation humans have wreaked on marine life, it was a pleasant dive in Tagbaobo, Island Garden City of Samal last Saturday, the last day of my two-week sabbatical.

Body building, not

February 17, 2012February 20, 2012 · 5 Comments ·

DOES Doctor Snow hurt?” I asked Trisha after deciding I needed to see a chiropractor for my bum shoulder. “Hint,” she replied, “the place is called Davao Pain Clinic.” Okay… I once had a chiropractor. I hated him. He loved torturing me. He was my … Continue reading Body building, not
