Are facial scars sexy?

I just had to ask because on Christmas day, I got a facial wound as a present.

I was about to pop open my last bottle of beer from the cooler when somehow the bottle beside it burst and something hit me in my face just below my right eye.  It could be the bottle cap, it could be broken glass.

The wound was big, it required stitches.  I’m just glad it didn’t hit my eye.  Honestly, I don’t mind the wound but it just effectively halted my holiday drinking spree.  I know, it sucks.  Reunion with friends while binge drinking, what a torture! Read more »

George W. Bush ducks shoe bullet

George W. Bush ducks, not one but, two shoes thrown by an Iraqi journalist.  I can’t believe it.

I observed two things:

One, the Secret Service agents were lousy.  How could they give any man the time to throw two shoes.  It’s a good thing both shoes missed.  Had one of them hit their target, the embarassment would’ve been deadlier than an actual assassination.

Two, how did Dubya evade the shoes?  He was nimble out there.  I’m not a Dubya supporter but I’m happy for him, really.  He was doing a Neo (from the Matrix movie).

Or, two, how could the Iraqi miss??

Smells Like Nirvana

The baby on the Nirvana Nevermind album cover is cashing in on his fame.

He got paid $1,000 to re-enact the famous pool pose. He says he also gets paid to hang out and allegedly, he’s in talks for a possible movie role.

The original shoot cost $200 and he  was naked.  This one cost $1,000 and he’s not naked.  Also, do you think it’s the same pool?  Because I don’t think so.

Oh well, whatever, nevermind.

Free Minimalist Wordpress Themes

I think I’m bored.

Wait, I’m always bored.

Aha! I know… I’ll develop Wordpress Themes.  Hmmm, I’m a minimalist.  So, maybe I’ll create Minimalist Wordpress Themes.

Don’t worry, I know PHP. Honest! (Quick, what does PHP stand for? Don’t! Google! That!  You’re right, it’s Philippine Peso.)

But… where to start?  Ah, yes, here.

So… check back after about… a month.  Maybe I can create a Minimalist Wordpress Theme that you’ll like.

Cebu Pacific passengers in Thailand still waiting

Cebu Pacific passengers in Thailand are stranded and asking when Cebu Pacific will take them home.  Philippine Airlines already scheduled an airlift of about 433 PAL passengers today.

Moreover, Cebu Pacific passengers claim that the Thailand Toursim Authority were the ones who facilitated their free hotel accomodations (as a result of the flight delays).

Allegedly, Cebu Pacific still has to comment on this issue.  Read more »
