Things I Think I Think:

  1. It's wonderful what Pacquiao does. All he does is fight & the whole country unites even for just a day. Or not (more on this at the second item). When he fought, would you believe, the Armed Forces declared a ceasefire with all rebel groups; the ZTE scandal got buried; the crime fell to zero. Why can't this guy fight 365 times a year? Makes me wonder.
  2. They say sour grapes are that, sour. ABS-CBN, are being themselves again. Classless & full of crass. They are predictably demeaning Pacquiao's recent win. Get over it folks. You had your chance when Pacquiao was still a "Kapamilya".
  3. Summer is indeed here. Notice the heat these days?
  4. And what about Easter Sunday? I can't ever recall waking up so early for a mass. Chabs & I woke up at around 3:30 AM to witness the "Salubong" in Bocaue. Couldn't they, at least, make this at around 7 AM? Just wondering. But it's still a good experience though.
  5. On Tita Cory having colon cancer: She had a full life. I bet she wouldn't live it any other way.
  6. On Pope Benedict XVI during his annual "Urbi et Orbi" Easter message greeting the Filipino faithful in Tagalog: Work on it. They say practice makes perfect. But the gesture is appreciated and kinda cute.
  7. Boy, the people who walked to Antipolo on Maundy Thursday were numerous! They occupied three-fourths of Ortigas Avenue. And did they start early too. The road was jampacked with people at 8 PM. I still recall the days when only half of Ortigas was filled during the Alay Lakad & started at around 12 midnight.
