Unsolved: Like Fringe in condensed version

Thursday night is Fringe night.  No matter if it's on at 10:30 in the evening (which is much later than I am accustomed to for weekdays) thus making me late sometimes for work on Fridays, but Fringe had caught my imagination and so I'm sticking to it, even if TVNZ moved it to this unholy hour.

It's just that Fringe tackles things that have baffled science since time immemorial.  And I can relate to these things because I have been reading about these since back in high school.  Telekinesis, Spontaneous human combustion, time travel, abductions, extra dimensions... these boggle the mind.

St Vincent Church

The St Vincent Church is memorable to me not because of the Church itself, but because of the Gym to its right.  Back in high school, my friends Sonny and Leo and I would industriously take the long walk from SLU Boys High to the Gym.  Nope, no jeepney rides for us because we're saving up every cent we have to buy... used stamps!  Yep, we were philatelists in our youth, influenced by Leo.  The Gym has a store inside where we buy the stamps.  I don't remember now how we knew the store sold stamps, but I believe it was Leo who made the discovery too.

LGTM Corporation, give us our money back!

Just like any other parent who would like to have a place to retire to and pass on to their kids, we started to invest on a plot of land in my hometown of Baguio City in the Philippines. We have been paying a monthly amortization since the middle of 2007, with the property developer stating that in about 5 years' time, the place would have been developed already - roadworks, pipelines, basic city services would be available at that time and that we would be able to start thinking about having a house built on the land.

Fast-forward to December of 2010 when we visited the Philippines for a December vacation. We had high hopes of the place when we visited the site.... only to be very disappointed.

Now We Remain by David Haas

I just love this song, and would like to share it with you.

Sa Ugoy ng Duyan

Happy Mother's Day po sa lahat ng mga Nanay sa espesyal na araw na ito!



(Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers on this special day!)

Meet Ben, Gwen, and Kevin

They are the recent addition to our family. They've been with us for about a month and a half now (how time flies!) and they are doing splendidly well, considering that the last time I took care of fish was back in high school.
