The reported sex scandals. Look, it’s not a scandal. The fact that people have sex is not a scandal.

This is a picture by an excellent photographer Parc Cruz. It is a Brazilian child. It reminded me of this street child that I saw in Cebu. I can’t help but wonder what has happened to him. I gave him a few pesos, knowing and hoping he would buy some […]

But, what if you added cute with long, black, silky hair to the list of adjectives? Confused […]

Ok, so you thought you had a bad doctor? even a bad priest? But what about a bad doctor-priest?
Don’t know what that is?

I think that we have to be cognisant of the fact that this administration is THE WRONG ADMINISTRATION to implement a new constitution.

I was talking to a friend today (here in the U.S.) while we were having some coffee. He’s a real martial arts junkie, and he asked me about Arnis. I was surprised that he knew what it was, and I was a bit ashamed as well that I didn’t know more about it. A lot […]
