It’s my birthday today, November 27, 2008. IT’S MY PARTY AND I’LL CRY IF I WANT TO…

I found out that that phrase means…. something negative:

The song lyrically portrays the emotional downfall and public humiliation of a teenage girl who, at the birthday party she is throwing, is humiliated when her boyfriend, Johnny, abruptly leaves her and takes up with a girl named Judy, to whom he gives a ring to show his love for her.
The song’s chorus, “It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to… You would cry too if it happened to you,” quickly became a part of American pop cultural language as a phrase used to describe being utterly humiliated and miserable during an event that is supposed to be a happy occasion.

I guesss….

A reader sent me a couple of interesting questions which I think is worthy of its own blog post. The question is related to blog hosting (or blog site hosting).

1. How much does web hosting cost you annually?

Annually, it costs me about $84 for the hosting and $9 for each domain name at Host Monster . Host Monster has a promo now, $1 cheaper than regular rates, so you might want to buy now.

Beware of hosting companies who offer very cheap plans.  Sometimes their services are also cheap.

2. If your web hosting plan says you have a choice for multiple domains, does it mean you can have a second and possibly a third blog at no additional cost?

The short answer is yes.

The long answer is: Read more »

I’m *just a little* happy that Barack Obama won.  Obama’s victory means nothing unless the Lakers win the championship this season.

What? You’re no fan of weird humor?

The latest pinay scandal to hit the World Wide Web is the Criselda Volks Scandal video. I really don’t know Criselda Volks so I don’t know if indeed it was her. No, I haven’t seen the video, which may be titled Criselda Volks Scandal. To clarify, I don’t know if the title is the Criselda Volks Scandal. I just made that up. If the tile of the video indeed is the Criselda Volks Scandal, then so be it.

Pinoys are really into pinay scandals, aren’t they?

I feel for Criselda Volks. First of all, how did this video, which I am referring to herein as the Criselda Volks Scandal materialize? Read more »

Are there real vampires? Are vampires even real?

I chanced upon a Tyra Bank Show episode about “real vampires“. One guy was quite small and said he weighed around 125 pounds (almost the same weight as Tyra) but he leg pressed what looked like a very heavy set of weights.

I didn’t quite catch if that man said he was a real vampire but it seemed like he was talking like he was a real vampire.

What impressed me was how the guy correclty identified 3 items by smelling them while being blindfolded! He correctly guessed the chocolate, beef steak and mangoes. Tyra Banks thought the mangoes were papayas, funny. Read more »
