Anyone got new beef with anyobody?

Been gone for 9 days on a "post-vacation" vacation in lovely Barcelona. My fiance made me promise to leave my VAIO at home which meant no internet during our entire stay.
Missed you all!!!

Now hurry up before this question gets deleted.

i usually take the MRT when i go to work and i have noticed that rarely will a guy offer his seat to a woman. i really couldn't quite hide my chagrin as even if there's the pregnant, the elderly or the physically challenged among them, they would ignore these people and some would even pretend to doze off...

please don't tell me that it is because of equality. the "if men can very well stand in the MRT, women can too," mentality. of course. but a guy proffering his seat to a woman shows his character.

comments?

thanks.

"Empanaditas" are little turnovers made of the thinnest, flakiest pastry surrounding a fine paste of chicken, carrots and raisins - a sweet and savory combination - to die for!

To learn more about it, check this out ---

In the Philippines, empanaditas are very popular and are considered a "must taste" for tourists.

So when was the last time you had empanaditas? Are you craving for it now?

Like strangers.
That´s what we are.
Darling how can lovers pull apart so far?
Like strangers.
How can it be?
Only days ago, we loved so tenderly.
I love you, truly I do.
And I hope deep in your heart you love me too.
Let´s forget that we´ve been angry.
Let´s be lovers like before.
And swear not to be like strangers, anymore.

*"Like Strangers" by the Everly Brothers

Thank you very much.

I am an American Pastor by the way who lives in the Philippines-I am not Filipino. I just read a question asking if Filipino men who stay at home (house husband) are weaklings.
*For the Most Part* 1. I have noticed when a family cannot send "all" children to school, the Filipina is given the advantage to go. 2. If one child must work to send seblings to school/help feed the family, it is the male child who chooses or is picked to go to work at the very young age. 3. When I ask a male child how he feels about working to send his sisters/brothers to school/feed his family. He smiles, looks at me with grate pride and announces he is a MAN-that's what men do. 4. When I ask a female child the same question, she bends her head in shame and cannot/willnot answer or begins to cry. (I am talking about the pain she feels, not that she cries).

But yet I see the filipina Look Down and belittle the un-educated filipino. Why does this seem to be the norm?

Do you think HE feels pain also?

I know we have Little Leagues in the Phils. but still its popularity pales in comparison with basketball. Somehow one would think that baseball would be embraced by our kids since it doesn't really require height (which we lack) to be good at it. And even the equipment needed (bats, mitts) isn't really that expensive and besides, we could always improvise. What do you think? Comments, please. Thank you.

at 2PM PST today. Weatherman said this signifies a clear threat of drought.

La Union has been declared under the state of calamity due to the drought. The Ambuclao and San Roque Dams are now nearly critical levels. But it's been raining cats and dogs in Baguio this month.

What do you think? Effect of global warming?

Reminds me of the hailstorm day before the 1990 killer quake.

I've been there, but I suspect many others are afraid to go once they've encountered some of the locals here in YAP who threaten/abuse them each time they make statement that sheds light on an unpopular but true reality of life in the Philippines. The prospective tourists start believing that the malcontents here are representative of the typical pinoy (of course they're not) but can you blame them?

Okay, so we've been to Boracay and Palawan, time to move to another beach. In Cebu, we can go Malapascua Beach or Bantayan Island OR we can go to Bohol - Alona Beach (Panglao Island). If you were the travel director of YAP, which would you recommend?


water, water, water everywhere
we see it here, we see it there
we swim, we wade - our bathing suits we wear
our problems, our worries - we forget what they were

the tourists they come they enjoy it here
our food they eat, our laughter they hear
they come from countries, far and near
our people, our ways, they need not fear

we welcome everyone to take a trip
our beaches are great, take my tip
the waters are cool so take a dip
hey there's a shark - just kidding, pip!

***corny poem is my original!
