Quick Stomach R.I.P.

So, I went to Manila last monday and the first thing I had in mind after checking in is to go to Quick Stomach. Well, I originally planned on going to Persian Kebab first but my wife pleaded that I delay my Kebab tryst so we could go together later at night. (She had to go somewhere else first.)

I was shocked to see that Quick Stomach was closed. It looked like it was under renovation. I asked the attending lady inside the pharmacy beside it and she said that quickstom (as I fondly call it) was closed for good. Well, that’s not good, it’s bad. Read more »

Tropical Storm Cosme

If you’re a frequent traveler here in the Philippines, you may find these links useful for weather forecasts:

Yahoo says Google is a malware

google-malware1.gifApparently, Yahoo’s partnership with Mcafee has some minor glitch. Yahoo Search tags a Google result as malware. Curiously, searching for “google” doesn’t display this warning. Searching for “altavista” does.

Do you think this is an honest mistake, a prank or a joke? Whatever it is, my guess is Google is not laughing.

Update: Yahoo already fixed the glitch concerning Google.  However, one site, whose not as big as Google, is also affected by this anomaly.  The site owner claims they are not spammers as tagged by Yahoo Search.  E-mail correspondence with Yahoo, so far, isn’t doing very well, according to the site owner.  Ouch!

Kobe is MVP! (finally)

I don’t care. I just want him to win titles.
For all the hardwork he’s put through, he deserves all the luck to win it all.
