NBA Finals Game 4

2008-06-13T12:31:00.006+08:00

The Celtics overcame a 24 point deficit to defeat the Los Angeles Bryant in Game 4. Now is the time for the Celtics to finish this series and grab their 17th championship that seemed impossible a year ago. Go Celtics!!!

NBA 2008 Playoffs/Finals

2008-05-26T22:21:00.004+08:00

I really don't like the outcome of the playoffs. My Wizards failed again to overcome LeBron's cavs. Now the Lakers and the Spurs are back on the western conference finals. On the eastern conference its the Celtics and the Pistons. I think a Celtics, Lakers Finals would be a good one. Reviving that rivalry would be exciting. I'll be placing my bet on the Celtics because I hate Kobe "Ass Hole" Bryant.

Fuck you Microsoft!

2008-04-15T11:52:00.005+08:00

It's been a month since I last posted here in my blog. Lots of things happened during those days. My Xbox 360 died (RROD) on March 5, 2008 after the Pacquiao, Marquez fight. I was so depressed I wanted to flush by xbox in the toilet. I knew that that day would come and it did. Right now I don't have any intentions of having my xbox repaired because it's too damn expensive. Lots of good games are coming out this summer and I won't be able to play those good games because of this Three Red Lights of SHIT. Fuck you Microsoft!!!

Urbandub : Under Southern Lights

2008-02-28T10:43:00.007+08:00

This is the 4th album of my favorite OPM band Urbandub. It has 10 songs.

1. An Invitation
2. Anthem
3. The Fight Is Over
4. Guillotine
5. Cebuana
6. Life is Easy
7. Evidence
8. A Method To Chaos
9. Inside The Mind Of A Killer
10. She Keeps Me Warm

All of their songs are well written. I love the way Gab and Lalai's voice blend together. May favorite track here is "Cebuana". I love this song! I never get tired of listening to it over and over. For me Urbandub is the best rock band here in the Phil. they are very unique and talented. I don't know how the hell Spongecola received the best rock video. They are not a rock band! They are boy bands. The 2007 best male vocalist : Yael Yuzon. C'mon! My dog sings better than him. Anyways, Urbandub has touched my life. They deserve lots of awards this year.

Vocal Fold Nodule sucks major ass!

2008-02-14T09:14:00.007+08:00

What a valentines day! Instead of thinking about gifts, love and finding a date, I found myself a vocal fold nodule! I'm very stressed out because my band will be performing on Saturday for a valentines day rock concert in Eastwood Libis. How am I suppose to sing and have fun on that day?! My parents will be on that event and I'm sure they will be cheering for me while I sing with a hoarse voice. That sure sucks!

I am the most pleasant mother pheasant plucker,
to ever pluck a mother pheasant.

Shaq On Phoenix Suns

2008-02-08T08:48:00.000+08:00

WTF! Shaq is now on Phoenix Suns. The Suns traded star player Shawn Marion and guard Marcus Banks. I think this is a good deal for both Miami and Phoenix. Shaq is not in his prime now because he's getting older and facing lots of injuries. But still, he's the diesel! He still can play good. Miami needs a perimeter shooting guy and Shawn Marion is a good pick. Even Miami has Shawn Marion, I don't think they can get to the playoffs. I like Miami but in their standing now? I really don't think they can reach playoffs. For the Suns, now they are more powerful. If Shaq brings his game back, there's no question they can be the new NBA champions.

Is Metal Gear 4 coming to xbox 360?

2008-02-06T11:17:00.000+08:00

Metal Gear 4 is coming to the Xbox 360 console! - That's what every Metal Gear fan and Xbox 360 owners are hoping to hear. I'm one of those. I was searching for a MGS4 image on google then I saw this one. A Metal Gear 4 game cover for the Xbox 360 made by a fan boy. Isn't that great?! We all know that Konami said that this game is made only for the PS3 console and I have been reading alot of rumors about this game coming to the Xbox 360. I have read one in XboxFamily. The assistant producer of Metal Gear Solid 4 said this:

"We're telling our fans that if you want to play 'Metal Gear Solid 4', you have to buy a PS3,"Ryan Payton, the assistant producer of the game.

What is their problem? I'm thinking, maybe the owner of Sony has a gay relationship with Hideo Kojima..? Or maybe Sony is paying good money on Konami? C'mon! Bill gates can double that! He's one of the richest gay person in the whole world. Releasing it both on the xbox 360 and the PS3 will make lots of income. But in the PS3 alone? No way! PS3 games are way too expensive than the 360's and every gamer knows that! I'm still hoping that this game will be released on Xbox 360. Rumors or facts It's still nice to hear that this game is coming on our consoles.

Incubus Concert in Manila Araneta Coliseum Seating

2008-02-05T09:33:00.000+08:00

The event is getting close. Only 33 days to go and I'm getting stressed out lately, thinking about our seats. Thanks to a good friend at enjoyincubus.com "drive". He managed to make a sketch of the seat plan. Ticketnet told me that the numbering of the seats are from right to left. Yeah! our seats are on PT107 row C seat 10 and 11. That's near enough to have a great view. I hope this one is for real.

Vitamin Beer

2008-02-04T09:13:00.001+08:00

“If you are looking for an excuse to take a swig, this is it,” said Billy L. Lalang, a filipino who concocted a beer mixed with Vitamin B, to replace this essential vitamin lost when excessive amounts of alcohol are consumed.

Although yet to be marketed, this “prophylactic for drinkers” as the Filipino inventor calls it, has won a gold medal at the European Union-sponsored Genius-Europe competition.

What a great invention! It will be a great excuse for being drunk... in vitamin B. I hope they also put vitamin B for Gin Bulag.

Man on Mars Truth or Ficiton?

2008-01-25T16:37:00.000+08:00

Is there a possibility that man can live on Mars? Is it a rock? A martian? Or Osama Bin Laden going to take a pee outside his hole? I have read an article about this image taken by NASA's six wheeled robot named Spirit during it's mission on Mars to study its surface. I really don't think this is for real but who knows? Maybe there is life on Mars.

Looking for Sony CyberShot Digital Cameras

2008-01-24T11:37:00.000+08:00

Our summer outing i is getting near. The tentative month is on March yet there is still no assurance on where the vacation will be held. Since we are going on a trip, I'm thinking of havinga digital camera. Right now, I'm keeping an eye on this two. The Sony CyberShot W120 digital camera which has a wider 3-inch Clear Photo LCD Plus screen for easy playback viewing and menu navigation. The Sony CyberShot DSC-H10 digital camera has a powerful lens and a long-range flash to help you capture details from afar. The Sony CyberShot W120 digital amera has an HD output and a new technology from Sony, the Smile Shutter. It waits until the person smiles before firing the shutter to ensure happy faces in every picture. A new Smile Level setting will let you tune the threshold before a picture’s taken, from a gentle smile to a huge one.

Incubus Lyrics : Anna Molly

2008-01-23T12:53:00.001+08:00

What is your most favorite song of Incubus? For me, Anna Molly is one of my favorites. It's poetic and very deep. Some people pronounce it anomaly. I think Anna Molly is another way of saying anomaly meaning something odd, a strange condition or situation. For me, my interpretation of this song is he's wondering if the right woman for him really exists. He's thinking about his ideal girl does really exists, which it doesn't is an anomaly. I don't know but that's my interpretation. Here's the lyrics:

A cloud hangs over this city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be, (might be)
Out there and sober as well from loneliness,
Please do persist girl it's time we met and made a mess

I picture your face at the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic, proof of the prize!
Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Anna Molly,

A cloud hangs over and mutes my happiness,
A thousand ships couldn't sail me back from distress, (distress)
Wish you were here, I'm a wounded satellite,
I need you now, put me back together, make me right

I picture your face at the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic, proof of the prize!
Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Anna Molly,
I'm calling your name up into the air,
Not one of the others could ever compare,
Anna Molly, Anna Molly!

Wait... there is a light... there is a fire...
Illuminated attic,
Fate? Or something better? I couldn't care less,
Just stay with me a while,
Wait... there is a light... there is a fire,
Defragmenting the attic,
Fate? Or something better? I couldn't care less,
Just stay with me a while

I picture your face at the back of my eyes,
A fire in the attic, proof of the prize!
Anna Molly, Anna Molly, Anna Molly,
I'm calling your name up into the air,
Not one of the others could ever compare,
Anna Molly, Anna Molly!

Wait... there is a light... there is a fire
Defragmenting the attic, (Anna Molly!)
Fate? Or something better? I could care less,
Just stay with me a while (Anna Molly!)

Is Nyko intercooler EX worth buying?

2008-01-22T16:42:00.000+08:00

A lot of xbox 360 owners nowadays are getting stressed out thinking they might be the next victim of the technical problems that the xbox 360 console are now facing. The overheating problems and the dreaded 3 red lights of death are in the top list of those. At $19.99, the Nyko Intercooler Ex, provides increased air flow away from the 360 which allows the console to perform without having too much heat. It's ideal on areas which doesn't have taht much breathing space for your xbox 360. A pass through power connection utilizes the existing Xbox 360 power supply negating the need for an extra AC adaptor. The unit also powers on and off automatically with 360 and the intercoolers small size will fit in tight spaces like entertainment centers with your 360 displayed in either horizontal or vertical format. But I have read about rumors about not getting this. They say it will only cause some major problems on your xbox 360 like burning, melting and receiving the RROD(red rings of death). Some say, this new product of Nyko is the best intercooler ever made to help you cool down your Xbox 360 during hours of play. Very confusing isn't it? The question is, is it worth buying? If you're having troubles deciding whether you should buy this (like me) or have your own cheap way of cooling down your xbox 360, I say if you got the money and you have gathered lots of good information about this and you think it can help, then go. And if you're having doubts because you think your console is better without it, then do the cheap way of cooling down your xbox 360. Place it on a well ventilated area and have your xbox 360 a rest after 2-3 hours of playing.

Guitar Hero 3: Legends Of Rock

2008-01-22T08:50:00.000+08:00

I have played this game but only on a demo. It's like playing dance dance revolution but way better. It has lots of great rock music like the music of Pearl Jam, Ozzy Osbourne, Sex Pistols and Black Sabbath. I have read an article about the game series earning about $1 billion. Wow! This third title did so well, it was on the top games of 2007. I don't have this game yet but I'm gonna buy this one for the Xbox 360.

AdSense for Bloggers and Making Money Online

2008-01-21T14:26:00.000+08:00

I've been dreaming about making money online, but after what I have read at kuya marghil's site... I think he's right. Google adsense is not for everybody. My site has nothing to do with making money or getting fame. I guess I'll just write things down here even it would make sense or not. Seeing people visiting my blog is enough for me. I'll just post anything I want and read it over and over. If I have something to say..I'll just say it here. Thanks kuya marghil! I'll be setting the adsense thing aside for now. :) I'll be reading the e-book you gave me.
