Naging Promdi rin ba kayo?

Dear mouse,

Sa aking pong sinulat sa blogkadahan, Salamat sa Diyos, Ako’y pinoy, (kung hindi pa kayo nakapunta, tanggapin ninyo ang aking matalim na irap, hehehe), may remarks po tungkol sa dyipni.

Akala ko biro lang hanggang mabasa ko ang Blog ni bugsybee ang A Promdi in Manila.

Ito yong comments ni retz.

Pasahero: mama` bayad o (abot ng pipti peysos)

Tsuper: san galing toh?

Pasahero: sa bulsa ko!

Tsuper: nde ang kako, san ka sumakay!

Pasahero: dito sa jeep niyo! sanpaba? aysus

ito naman po ay totoong pangyayari ayon kay bugsy tungkol sa isang bagong salta sa pinas at hindi marunong magtagalog..

"Mama, bayad ko" What will I say when I want to get down?

"Mama, para." Okay, that's easy, she said, so off she went. When she reached a certain point, she wanted to pay her fare so she said, "Mama, bayad ko." As usual, her fare went from hand to hand to hand until it reached the driver. When the driver got it, "Saan galing?" Her answer: "Sa akin po." This sent everybody around her laughing.

O di va, kahit hindi nagpapatawa ang pinoy, nakakapagpatawa. hekhekhek

Dear mouse,

Kararating lang ng nanay ni Neneng galing sa Pinas.

Unang napetition si Neneng ng kaniyang ama na nag-asawa na ng iba.

Tapos penitition naman niya ang kanyang ina.

NENENG: Anong ginawa ninyo 'Nay?

NANAY: Bakit, anak, tinagpian ko lang yong butas mong pantalon.

NENENG: Pero FCUCK ito.

NANAY: Huwag mo akong murahin kahit sa Ingles. Naintindihan ko yan.

NENENG: Hindi ko ho kayo minumura. Tatak ho ng pantalon ko yan. $ 34 dollars ho yang bili ko.

NANAY: Kamahal naman, marumi na, butas pa sa tuhod.

Nang Lumuhod ang Tala

Dear mouse,

Sabi ni Rusell "Gladiator" Crowe"

"I'm in a lot of trouble. I'll do my best to solve the situation in an honorable way. I'm very sorry for my actions. "One thing that I don't want to do is imply that I'm trying to make out it's somebody else's fault," Crowe told the paper. "It's not. I know it's my fault. I've got to face up to it and deal with it. I'll cop whatever I cop.

Dear mouse,

Kala ko sa Pilipinas lang nangyayari ang loyalty ng mga FAAAAANS.

O di va kaya si Cindy Kurleto, may i frozen beauty siya as a love interest of ECHO CHO CHO CHO (jericho) dahil love team niya si Kristin Hermosa noon.

Dito rin pala, bawal kay Brad Pitt at Angelina Jolie ang magsama kahit sa promotion ng kanilang pelikula.

Ito ang balita.

Magagalit ang fans ni Jennifer Aniston.

Sa Forbes Mags pala, si Jennifer ang nakalistang may pinakamalaking kinita sa pelikula at TV. O day isnabin, marami siyang tagahanga na maaring magpataob ng tambalang Brad at Angelina.

At ang paborito kong si Bruce Willis ang may pinakamalaking kinita sa isang pelikula lang, his fee and his percentage in the gross earnings ng The SIXTH SENSE.

Talagang it pays if you can see dead people. Nyahahaha

Talagang producers na ito, bulsa muna pago pag-ibig anoh?

Except for her lips na gusto ko talagang lagyan ng tape sa ilalim para siya huwag lumaylay, I like Angelina sa action movie at si Brad Pitt naman sa Ocean 11 and 12 at Spy Games.

Ayoko na rin si Brad, gusto ko na lang si Val Kilmer. Kita ko yong old movie niya na The Saint at Batman. Galing ng emote niya.

Bakit post ko ta-artits ? Syempre naman anoh, sino ba ang di nanonood ng movie para sa ilang minutong pagkalimot sa mga palabas sa Kongreso diyan. Babaw na ng story plot, yon din at yon din ang mga gumaganap. Sa katagalan nga napansin ko parang tumanda na yata ang mga mukha nila.

Orgasm and Mental Disorder

Dear mouse,

Don't worry, there was no study about the correlation of the two. However, this article is about two studies that raised my one eyebrow to perfect arc and the other one to knit for disbelief as in what? I am sitting next to a mentally unstable person?

Recent study conducted showed that United States is leading in mental illness.

ACCCCCCCCCKKKKKKK

Here is the news:

WASHINGTON, June 7 The United States leads in mental illness globally with 46 percent of Americans suffering mental disorders ranging from anxiety, depression to substance abuse in their lifetime, The Washington Post reported Tuesday. Within the past year, about 25 percent of all Americans met the criteria for having a mental illness, and fully 25 percent of those had a "serious" disorder that significantly disrupted their ability to function day to day, according to a one-year-and-a-half survey of the country's mental health, conducted by the University of Michigan.

This news was responsible for the arching of my brow. Blame your mother if you do not have orgasm.

MMMMMMMPPPPPPPP

A new study conducted on more than 4,000 women determined that heredity is the most important factor in determining how easily a woman achieves orgasm. In other words, if you’re having problems obtaining sexual satisfaction, it might just be your mother’s fault. The results were published in Wednesday’s issue of the British journal 'Biology Letters.'

Do I hear why momma ?

Deep Throat and Sore Throat

Dear mouse,

Was the wiretapping incident inspired by latest news about Deep Throat ?

Deep Throat is the pseudonym that was given to a secret source who leaked information about the involvement of U.S. President Richard Nixon's administration in the events that came to be known as the Watergate scandal. Deep Throat was an important source for Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, who together wrote a series of articles on the scandal that played a decisive role in exposing the misdeeds of the Nixon administration.

If it is, then the scandal should be labeled, The SORE THROAT.

Poetry is the food of the soul

Dear mouse,

Body needs nourishment so is the soul.

Allow this Ca t to feed its soul by publishing some poems that should be in my menu for these trying times.

Nobody Walks Alone

Oft' times when the highway of life seems rough and all of your dreams have flown, Just remember, wherever your road may go, Nobody walks alone.

When everyone has let you down and under your sins you groan, Just keep reminding your burdened heart, Nobody walks alone.

Then suddenly you'll feel His hand in yours, And His eyes lifting up your own, And you'll hear His gentle, forgiving voice: Nobody walks alone.

Only to Ask

All alone, I plodded upward, not asking aid from anyone, I alone, would be the victor, 'till the battle that would be won.

Oh the roads were rough and rocky and the hills were tough to climb, All alone-towards the summit, just a little at a time.

But I failed to climb my mountain, Oh, so close, I had to stop, And I hung my head in sadness, for I hadn't reached the top. And I wondered why the Master had not aided in my task, And I heard a soft voice answer, You had only but to ask.

A tail of two tapes

The controversy of the "doctored" and "undoctored tapes is the subject of the story in the Inside PCIJ:Stories behind our stories.

Entitled:

A tale of two tapes

Here is one statement from the original and the spliced tapes.

Original tape

Gary: Sige sir … talaga namang aming inaalalayan si Bobby eh… talaga namang siya yung atin

Spliced Tape

O sige basta kwan, talaga namang aking inaano si Bobby e, talaga namang siya naman ang atin.

Speaker 1: Kung gusto ko tulungan mo si kuwan para sa ano niya.

Speaker 2: Huwag kayong mag-alala, ngayon din ho ay ipapakuwan ko na kay kuwan ang ano.

And here is the tail.

Updates :

A former lawyer of deposed President Joseph Estrada said Tuesday he edited the tape of conversations between President Arroyo and a still unidentified person in which they discussed rigging the 2004 election.

Allan Paguia, who had defended Estrada before the Sandiganbayan and the Supreme Court before being suspended by the Supreme Court, also admitted in an interview over DZMM radio that he even made the introduction heard in the audio recording

Citizen journalism

Dear mouse,

Have you heard about citizen journalism?

This is the concept of average people writing the news in the internet.

In some parts of the United States, the idea of citizen journalism is boosted by the widespread popularity of blogging and the series of scandals by well known journalists that destroyed public confidence to the mainstream media.

Although there are questions as to its business viability as regular source of income some advocates of this non-traditional journalism have already put up companies that promise payment for article submitted.

For more of the news, read this.

In a way, we Pinoy bloggers can also become citizen journalists without having to go around for scoop news. We can write about our neighborhood, such as away ng magkakapitbahay, busted street lights, illegal parking, baradong manholes and even huweteng.

The global pinoys can write news about the host country.

The Masters of Disguises -liars and cheaters

Dear mouse,

If you think that my cable TV is tuned in the TFC 24/7, you're wrong. 23 1/2/7 lang.

That is for my TV in the living room. In the bedroom, no TFC. Pa-intellectual naman kuno ang dating.

Last Sunday, my idea that chameleon is the only animal that can quickly change in appearance and color to fool predators vanished when I saw a documentary about animals that are masters of disguises to protect themselves from enemies. Spy agencies may have been able to get some bags of tricks from these inferior creatures but definitely they could not duplicate the Nature-endowed abilities for animals to drive away unwanted companies.

Not all snakes have venoms. Snakes that you may see in the backyard may not be venomous at all but they have a way to fool a dangerous adversary, the domesticated cat. The small snake may try to pose like a deadly cobra,ready to strike but cats cannot be fooled easily not unless they encounter the type of snake that can cheat them by posing as if it were dead. DEAD as it looks like it is dead and smells like it is dead that even the flies are attracted to it. So the next time, you see a dead snake in your yard,check if it is really dead. Ooops, don't, it may not be dead at all.

Butterflies are beautiful but before they became one, they have to undergo series of disguises in order to finally metamorphose into one beautiful winged art of nature.

As a caterpillar, it can go to the most extreme disguise of looking like a bird dropping. Some animals cannot be fooled however, so it can switch to disguises including that of a small snake .

As a last trick, it can change its body form into a coccoon that can adopt shape and color to its environment. It can look like a green leaf or a small fruit hanging from one of the twigs.

The leafy sea dragon is not a dragon and not a sea weed either but it looks like one with its green tentacles attached to its sea-horse body.

It's really a sea horse but it looks more like a sea weed especially when the male carries the eggs of the young. The part of the body where the eggs are deposited by the female to the male partner becomes sticky that some sea stuff attach to it and conceal the eggs from the predators.

The master of disguises however is the mimic octopus. It can disguise as a snake, a flounder,a sea weed all in a few seconds because of its capability to change colors, shapes and movements when it mimics a particular animal of its choice.

Interesting. In the spy world, this is the ability to be invisible, to adapt and be among the enemies without being detected. These animals have their ways to teach us something that humans can not do even with their superior brain.

Excuse me while this Ca t changes to a human disguise. Ahem.

Cerebral malaria

Dear mouse,

Americans who planned to travel in areas where there are disease-carrying insects are required to have their shots.

This news should have made the people aware of the danger in going to places unprotected from the deadly malaria.

Reyster Langit, son of veteran radio broadcaster Rey Langit, died Friday in a US hospital, according to reports reaching The Manila Times.

Reyster, 33, died from heart failure in a hospital in Los Angeles, California. He was diagnosed with cerebral malaria, a disease he contracted in Pala­wan while o n assignment for the public affairs program Kasangga Mo Ang Langit.

His companions, DWIZ reporter Jesus Christian Macadaeg and cameraman Arnold Tanare, also contracted cerebral malaria and died from complications from the disease.

When I was in high school, we climbed a mountain in Bicol, if I remember it right, it was Mt. Bulusan.

We reached the part of the mountain where clouds just get past us that visibility became zero. The climate was so cold that the hot soup turned cold with the "sebo" on top.

After two nights in the camp, several of my companions fell ill that they were rushed to the provincial hospital.

It was due to intestinal flu.

There were no mosquitos up the mountain may be because of the wind but when we came down to pass the night in one of huts, grabe...ang mosquitos, para silang mga hayok sa laman.

Thank God, walang carrier ng malaria.

In college, my friends and I went to Zambales for a volunteer work in the forest nursery.

Somewhere, looking for some wild berries,"duhats", we lost our guide and our water supply too.

We're so thirsty that we were thankful to see a little stream (bukal) with clear water. My companions were about to scoop some water to drink when I saw "kiti-kiti". The water was not muddy. It seemed, it's clean but, the flow was so slow that it became a breeding ground for mosquitoes." During the evening, we slept in a rundown nipa hut. It was our choice. It did not have a roof so we can see the beautiful sky and the stars. Then mosquitoes started buzzing and biting us. I remembered my brother wrote from Australia that he contracted malaria but he was luckily treated at the earliest symptom when it manifested.

I can't sleep. So I feigned illness. I need to go to the doctor. The nearest clinic was 4 hours away.

One of the senior members of the team applied first aid by using her knowledge about survival in the forest. She looked for a banana tree and cut the unopened small leaf. She heated it over fire and slowly opened the leaf while applying it in my tummy.

Araaay, init.

She said that I was just pretending that I was sick, because, if not, the leaf was going to give me relief instead of burning my skin. Quackery ?

Ah ewan.Wanna go home and that was all I wanted. I know these stingers were disease carrying insects.

Iniimbita niya ako sa LA naman daw. Bago ako mnakasagot nakita ko ang close-up na mukha ni Kris Aquino. Ikakasal na raw siya kay James Yap. Pareho kaming baba ng phone. Parehong nasa The Buzz ang aming TV.HAAAA?

Masaya na rin ako kay Kris kung totoo ito

Sana hindi ito kagaya ng mga nakaraang naging karelasyon niya na galing sa mga second hand store.

Marami nang palit-palit na gumagamit bago napunta kay KRIS.

Isa pa pareho-parehong mga pabling na hindi yata mabubuhay kung walang babaeng magsasabi kung gaano sila kaguwapo at malakas ang sex appeal.

Sino kayang babae ang makakapagmalaki na siya lang binigyan ng tunay na pagmamahal. Gusto ba niyang naririnig ng I love you all kaysa I love only you ? Pero si Kris Aquino siya. She may have everything except a man who will truly love her as she is, a woman who has a lot of love to give but receives nothing in return.

Hindi ako selosa. Pwere pag gusto ko ang isang tao, selos ako.

Nakita ko kahapon ang pinagseselosan kong babae.

Bumalik muna tayo sa nakaraan.

Napanood ko ang Ten Commandments noong ako ay maliit pa. Rerun na yon at hindi ko alam matagal na palang ginawa yon. Sa akin ang mga actors doon ay mga bata pa. Crush ko si John Derek na gumanap na Josuah. Batang-bata pa siya doon. Tuwing rerun pag Holy Week pinanood ko. Sekreto ko yon. Hanggang makita ko ang retrato niya sa magasin. Matanda na pala siya. Kurap ako.Siya ba yon ? Pero ang crush ko ay yong bata niyang anyo.Kasama niya ang kaniyang asawang si BO Derek.

Kagabi palabas ang isang lumang pelikula ni Bo Derek.

Patay na si John Derek. Ewan ko kinurot na naman ang puso ko. Parang inagaw niya sa akin ang isang iningat-ingatan kong crush na hindi ko man lang pinaalam kahit sa malapit kong kaibigan. Pagtatawanan kasi ako.

I dreamed of being Miss Universe

Dear mouse,

Walang tatawa. walang tatawa. Ipapasumpa ko kayo sa anghel ko sa kaliwa na maging palaka kayo pag lalaki at kampanerang kuba naman pag babae. Pag may mga nagsabing babayes, na hindi man lang nila pinangarap yon, loud laffter ang aabutin sa akin..

Sa dadsy ko kasi, ako ang Miss Universe. O di va, sa mga ema at epa natin, tayong mga little goirls ang pinakamaganda. Kasabihan nga pag ang ema mo ay di matanggap ang kasabihang, a face, only a mother could love.. Day, its time for you to choose from options to say goodbye to this cruel world. In short, pangeet ka talaga.

Sa akin, motivation yata ni mader para hindi ako masyadong makabawas sa family budget ng pagkain, she asked me to watch my waist line. Kaya naman, bata pa ako ay conscious ako sa aking baywang at ang mahilig tirhan ng bilbil, ang sikmura. Kailangan, maliit siya. Kaya minsan, nagparetrato ako sa Luneta, kasama ang aking mga kaibigan, stomach in ako para ipakitang flat ang tummy ko. Tagal ng retratista, buti di nakita ang aking bluish na kulay sa pagpigil ng hininga.

Pinaiinom rin kami ng Milkmaid para raw tumangkad. Bakit si Nino Muhlach, di lumaki?

Hindi dahil paborito ko ang pelikula ni Sandra Bullock na Miss Congenialty pero, wala na talaga akong bilib sa pageant.

Ito ay mula nang malaman ko na sa Latin countries kung saan ang mga kandidata ay palaging nanalo, karamihan sa mga napipili ay pumupunta sa mga cosmetic surgeon para alisin ang mga hindi kanaisnais at pagandahin ang di maganda. Kung ganito ng ganito ay palitan na lang ng titulong Miss Universe:Makeover.

Kahit ang competition nila sa best national costume. hindi ako bilib. Para kang nanonood ng mga showgirls sa Vegas at Reno.

Huwag ninyo akong pansinin. Asim-ubas lang yon sa akin, dahil hindi ako tumangkad at ang aking harapan ay hindi lumaki kaya muntik na akong napagkamalang plantsahan ng aming katulong nang minsang ako ay natutulog ng nakatihaya. Saka litro na ang uso sa coke at hindi na yong classic coca-cola bottle.

Jose Rizal, the first Filipino blogger

Dear mouse,

I should have written this in our blogkadahan but I chose to present something else, a humurous one.

If May is the month of festivities in the Philippines, June is the month to celebrate the greatness of Filipinos, not necessarily the national heroes.

A blog, as many agree is a journal or a diary on line, whether it is about oneself or about the current events. As people, we make history and now we write history from our journal.

More than a century before blogs became popular, we have already a blogger, a diarist-- someone who took notes of his travels, his observations and maybe if he were alive today, he would be blogging too.

Read some of his "blogs" ermm diary entries.

1. blog about what he ate:

I have eaten luncheon for one mark, tip and beer included.

2. blog about the sunrise

Today I see clearly the sunrise. One can look at the red disk without hurting the eyes. It rises little by little in the horizon.

3. about one of his travels

At 7:15 we left Dinynnau. The Merkens is an old steamer with two chimneys. In front of the national monument is a sunken ship.

4. about his observations

Many German women and above all English women wear their hair short like men. There was with us a young woman with short hair and without holes in her ears.

5. blog about his feeling

I took refuge at the University from the shower and there on the bulletin board I read a sad thing: A very severe decision against a student announcing to the public that the young Frederick Wensel is forever expelled from all universities because his conduct makes him unworthy to attend classes.

6. blog to inform and warn

Notice to Girls, etc.

In German newspapers it is usual to find announcements for housekeepers, companions, maids, servants, etc. The interested parties are requested to present themselves at certain stations in Holland, France, or England. The Rotterdam Association, in order to abolish prostitution, warns women and girls to be very careful with such advertisements. I return to Leipzig in an express train.

Kakukulit ng ilang buwan, ang aking mga ateng na mga manunula at pintor ay nagsama-samang magsulat upang magturo ng pagpipintor at paghahabi ng tula.

May bago na rin silang bahay. Inyo pong dalawin.

Yong nga tatang at kuyang ko po ay nawala na sa eksena. May mga kaniya-kaniya na ring pinagka- kaabalahan.

Pakipasyal lang po.

Trio raw silang tatlo?

Sa maliit na tinig ako ay sisigaw

Ako ay tutula, ikaw ay sumayaw

Biglang iiyak at maglulupasay,

Nakuha na ang barya saka aayaw.

A pic for Sassy's blog

Dear mouse,

I was about to blog about the student protest ala Baywalk bodies au naturel.

But I saw Sassy's blog, bare protest.

Something is missing from her blog though.

Here it is.

A prayer from a friend

Dear mouse,

Akala ko kaya ko. Tinanong ko ang aking kaibigan, bakit?

Ito ang ibinigay niya sa akin.

Along Life's Way

Lord, lead me to a quiet place,

And softly close the door,

So in this perfect solitude

I can learn to love You more,

I'll speak to You as would a child

Of my failures and triumphs each day.

I'll ask for Your forgiveness

For my errors along lfe's way,

To contemplate your love for me

And the sacrifice You've made

Fills me with assurance

That I should never be afraid,

My life is yours to lead, my Lord,

Let me listen to Your voice,

So when temptation comes my way,

I will make the perfect choice,

As I slowly leave our quiet place,

And start my busy day,

I know you will walk beside me,

Every step along the way.

SO YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING?

Dear mouse,

Ever wonder why you can do this to your cat?

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Because a cat has 32 muscles in each ear.

1. It has also over one hundred vocal sounds. Dogs only have about 10.

MEMEMEMEMEME

2.A dragonfly has a life span of 24 hours.

And I was very guilty then when i found them dead a few hours after i tied their tails with thread.

3.A crocodile cannot stick out its tongue.

Magandang tuksuhing BELAT...

4.A goldfish has a memory span of three seconds.

Meron pa palang masahol sa akin.

5.A "jiffy" is an actual unit of time for 1/ 100th of a second.

Now that was unrealistic when they tell me to do a sandwich in a jiffy. (kamot ulo).

6.A snail can sleep for three years.

Kaya pala sila may cover. Para di sila maistorbo.

7. An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain.

Hmmmmm. maraming ostrich sa Congress.

8. It's impossible to sneeze with your eyes open.

ACHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

9. Leonardo Da Vinci invented the scissors.

Mahaba kasi buhok niya.

10. Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing.

And I am not even lying.

11. Peanuts are one of the ingredients of dynamite.

Uhmmmm, I am must be a walking dynamite, I ate a lot of peanut butter.

12. Rubber bands last longer when refrigerated.

And I thought they are noodles.

13. There are more chickens than people in the world.

And people eat chicken everyday.

14. Winston Churchill was born in a ladies' room during a dance.

I am wondering what was his mother dancing ?

15. Women blink nearly twice as much as men.

Got to try.
