I had a leisurely time reading the morning paper earlier today only to be surprised by news of the death of a former bank president. (Cached link.) The evidence clearly points to suicide, which I find uncommon for a predominantly Catholic population. The only state I can recall high occurrences of suicide is Japan, where […]
Help, I need somebody, Help, not just anybody, Help, you know I need someone, help. Yes, it’s from the Beatles’ “Help.” As you (or not) noticed, the world is quite strange now. The music is different, and the lyrics ain’t the same. And the band ain’t what it used to be. Go ahead, sing me […]
Excerpts from a comment I wrote off–site: “Man, there’s no such thing as ‘crashing at the right time.’ Dreams, when they crash, leave you empty and lost, not knowing where you’ve been, but more sadly, not knowing where to go. “You can pick up the pieces, collecting the ones that make you the unique person […]
“Successful people don’t see luck as only a matter of chance but also a matter of choice. You can choose to take the necessary steps to create the destiny you desire and not just wait around for something good to happen. Reach for your dreams!”
Have you ever been to Wendy’s lately? The branch at SM Megamall just reopened. You’ve got to try the Bacon Mushroom Melt — it’s now the size of a Burger McDo, just tastes a little better. And the cheese ain’t melting. Good thing they still serve good fries.

She ends up emailing me about rediscovering jobarclix and his wonderful […]
Yes, this weblog is still alive, though not much activity except for the occasional recent link every few days. But the coming week should produce some very interesting developments. By the way, I celebrated my birthday two Saturdays ago. Thanks to those who greeted through comments as well as those who texted and made it […]
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not […]
I just had a date with the bathroom scale which isn’t really in the bathroom but in my sister’s room and I just found out how much weight I’ve gained in just two months! For a few months last year I was quite steady at 155 pounds, but gained a few to reach 160 right […]
I would’ve wanted to write some funny, happy story for the new year but it’s quite hard to put the mind and heart into thinking that the world is madly rejoicing in the revelries — because it isn’t. As the total lives loss nears 150,000, let us pray for those greatly affected by this destructive […]
