I said it before, I’m not one who’s fond of local politics.. and as such have not dipped my fingers a lot (or at all) on it here. I’ll leave that to the experts — most especially to one of my recent favorites.
So what do I make of the…

* I came across this particular site that really got me laughing out loud. The Professional Heckler is a blog about Philippine politics — which I normally don’t care much about, but the outright mockery is just hilarious. The blogger does not seem to have any partisan affiliation, which I like.…

Well hello — no surprises here hehe. While it’s true that I hate to wait, waste time, and can’t stand unpleasant situations, I think I’m not that easily annoyed with most people (I hope! ).

Sharky, Sean, and Nash
I feel like I suddenly became a single parent of two ever since Sean joined the party. He is quirky, aloof, and untrusting, opting to be left alone most of the time. When picking him up, he almost always squeals as if in pain instantaneously — perhaps…

* Eternal Moonwalk: This online tribute to Michael Jackson features videos of people (and sometimes, animals and things) ‘eternally’ moonwalking to the bass line of Billie Jean from all over the world. Some are great, others are odd and offbeat. Definitely worth a visit
* Check out these amazing pics:…

Who's that dawg?
 

I got my second dog today — also a shih tzu, white with black and brown markings, named Sean.
