Drunkyard!!!

Last Saturday nite party went great...Drunk again of course but we had a lot fun... I wasn't able to work yesterday, because I was so weak to even stand up and eat...It's a good thing though because this is the first time in my entire stay here in Russia that I was able to take the Sunday off...But I miss seeing my wifey and baby through YM...

Stardock

Do you want to have a nice dashboard on your Windows desktop, like a MAC?  Download Stardock, this is a nice tweak to your desktop...It gives you the icons like what macintosh has on its dashboard...Here you can create shortcuts to your favorite programs and links so you don't have to go to Start -> Programs  and you can make a full view of your wallpaper while having your dashboard at the bottom/top/left/right of your screen... I like it, try and see if you'll agree with me :)

Global Warming...

Much has been said about Global Warming...The awareness it has created globally is truly mind boggling..Needless to say, do we really care?

We should, some might say, but are we doing enough to contribute? Last March 29, through the initiative of WWF not the World Wrestling Federation, World Wide Fund that is, the Philippines participated in the Earth Hour... Lights were turned off for 60 minutes in the Metro area and some neighboring provinces to help reduce energy consumption..In case you haven't heard yet,  global warming is the increase of Earth's temperature because of  too much green house gasses that makes the planet so hot so ice caps  are melting and our weather becoming more unpredictable like the El Nino and La Nina phenomenon...Am no scientist but at least I could understand what's happening to Mother Earth and steps we could do to help... I agree with TIME Magazine making Vladimir Putin as their Person of the Year for 2007 but I would not disagree with them if they've chosen Al Gore for his efforts on Global warming... 

I think it's about time that we have to be aware not only on the political end of our country (Gloria Resign thingie) but also we should be concern with our environment... For my part, I stopped smoking for almost 2 years now, it may not be as significant as what Al Gore is doing, but at least I'm making an effort and not just watching our planet deteriorates because of the abuses made by its occupants...

Vodka + Red Bull = ?

This thing has been going on for years(since 2001 as a matter of fact) but I haven't tried it or so as my friends...Last nite we finally decided to try it and know if the hype is true...

Honestly, it tastes great, the combination of alcohol in vodka and taurine in red bull makes you wanna guess which one is kicking in :)

Alcohol makes you wanna sleep after drinking more than you can handle while red bull keeps you awake..Maybe this is the reason why you drink more of this combi, to keep you partying 'till the wee hours..

This combination is better than Vodka and Shweppes but depends on the location or environment also..I would go for VS if the location is on the beach..VS with slice lemon and ice would definitely beat the scorching day at the beach while Vodka and Red Bull is a great combi when you're chilling in a bar or partying on the dance floor..

Lastly, I advice that you have to put ice on both mixes, and don't worry if you will notice that your mouth is dry after drinking VRB, it's one of the effects of this mix...

Araw ng Kagitingan

Today is Araw ng Kagitingan or Day of Valor, a national holiday, although our beloved President Luckiest B decided to transfer it and decalared April 7 as the special non-working holiday...

This day commemorates the fall of Bataan during World War II...

Below is a screenshot of Corregidor...

Just to give you a 'lil background, Corregidor was the remaining obstacle to the Japanese forces during the 2nd World War because it serves as the last line of defense for Allied Forces ( U.S. Army Forces – Far East (USAFFE))...

You can try googling for Corregidor and Fall of Bataan using the search engine on top of this page...

till next time, cheers to the good life!!!

Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water

I received this email last week and I think it's informative...
Now am sharing this to you.. READ ON...

Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water

This is a very good article. Not only about warm water after your meal but about Heart Attacks also . The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.

For those who like to drink cold water from the fridge, this article is applicable to you,because you are in great danger.It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. Common Symptoms Of Heart Attack...
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive.
