Sushyal ang Azkal Namin - Half Danish Bread, Half German Shepherd



if you like the azkals then stop right here.

still here? well... dang! just when i am resigned to the fact that the Philippine Basketball Association is unofficially Phil-Am Basketball Association with its influx of ameyricans and crossbreeds playing for its ranks, our football team has stepped up to recruit drop dead gorgeous halfbreed players to fill in its ranks.

the only difference is that most of these meeestizos are not amboys (american pinoys) but europines (i just made that up, european pinoys). it suddenly feels like high school all over again where the meestizos in the class wanted to play soccer. but that's another story, i'm digressing really.

my lady friends kept texting and posting facebook shoutouts about azkals this, azkals that. i have this theory, 90% of the audience and fans are women. not that they have any dang clue why people need to kick someone else's ball and why it takes an average of an hour before anyone ever scores (hmmm, slow foreplay). does anyone ever think why billiards is not that popular compared to football? imagine efren reyes without his front teeth. it doesn't exactly make the ladies go oooh... ahhh... more like ew.

Princess Taray (not her real name) told me that her husband probably rued the day that he introduced her to azkals.

oh and another trivia, a radio dj gleefully mentioned that azkals ended with a draw when they played with the locals in bacolod a couple of weeks back. it seemed like he wanted to imply that bacolod locals are not that "great". the dj forgot one thing, if there's any place where football is GOD of sports, it's in Negros. Mr. DJ, if bacolod locals had the same funding they'd be trashing azkals anytime. then again, they're not exactly eye candy.

and since i'm officially on a rant, the azkals should stop using that name. look, they don't look like azkals (asong kalye) unless you live in Forbes where the azkals look like purebreeds.

the sign

"Lord, give me a sign..." no, i haven't fallen victim to overly melodramatic movie lines. on the other hand, i actually did use these words while attending mass last sunday (Redemptorist, Cebu City). you see, i have been increasingly dissatisfied with matters regarding the church but not necessarily my faith. to a point that i am debating whether i should even attend mass. i was asking myself if i wanted to attend mass given the fact that the church is getting more political. sure, i understand liberation theology and standing up for what is morally right. but that is exactly the same thing that has been bothering me, the moral thingy. the local church is proclaiming that the current administration has no moral leadership. i am not refuting that claim, on the other hand, the church could have said the same thing about itself. except that they rather not comment on anything when it comes to issues facing the institutional church. and there are tons of dirt, make that hun

cebuanas.com again

one of the most popular post in this blog is cebuanas.com . for some reason, when someone does a search on the web for "cebuanas.com scam" they end up in my website. i guess my write up about their special romance package caused such a ruckus that they took it out of their website. i felt like doing a sherlock holmes and decided to visit the site to pose as a customer. here's a snapshot of my interesting, grammatically challenged conversation with kai: that's not all, in the course of my "investigation" i stumbled across some literary gems of advice for the foreigner interested in looking for a wife: WHY FILIPINA SEEK A FOREIGN HUSBAND? Filipinas seek a foreign husband because… Filipinas seek foreign husband not just for MONEY, GREEN CARD or a citizenship. It is because they feel that foreigners can make a good husband and a partner. - but the MONEY, GREEN CARD and citizenship must be there as well. they feel that too. They want to marry a foreigner becaus

Men and Makeup

nope, this is not another entry about metrosexuals and how the lines have been blurred when it comes to men wearing makeup. i am referring to the local and national election campaign posters plastered all over the country. someone has go to tell these candidates and their stylists that blemish free skin, pouting rouged lips, blushing red cheeks belong to cheeky graduation pictures, or a starlet posing in uno. not the local posters. on second thought, the more senior candidates probably used their graduation pictures, high school pictures mind you. i don't understand why they are afraid to show character with a few elegant lines on their faces. the way botox cleared the expressions, or how photoshop removed all pores from the skin, or how subcutaneous fat seem to have been sucked off from their chins left a very puppet-like look. yup, character, character assassination. combined with exaggerated, toothy grins, some pictures reminded me of joker. not arroyo (one of the few ch
