Idea: Restricted Blog

I typed in Http://whoweareinstead.blogspot.com in a chance that I can get that address for the Pinoy Jars of Clay Fans Club. This greeted me:This blog is open to invited readers only http://whoweareinstead.blogspot.com/ It doesn't look like you have been invited to read this blog. If you think this is a mistake, you might want to contact the blog author and request an invitation.This is curious and now I'm thinking - this can be the means of creating a membership only site!

Sad, cant sleep. Don't know why. Incredible Landladies

It's been a tough time looking for a new apartment for me this Christmas season. I don't know why it has to happen at this time ALL THE TIME. It's been the 3rd time in six years that I have to move out of where I'm staying and go somewhere else. Mostly due to incredibly difficult landladies. Are they even to be called ladies? Oh no, that's not true, the first one was an inconsiderate female housemate who wanted to glue the phone to her ear and wanted me to offer them what I was eating every time they're present in the living room.  We weren't even friends but she wanted ME to give her courtesy. Oh dear. The 2nd one was a literally insane landlady of a rental place in guadalupe. Every tue and thursday she would BLARE her instrumental oldies at about 9am to who knows when. Nobody stood...

Vertical Horizon Manila feeback/New Car/New Doctor Who/Torchwood

I've been keen on waiting of the Torchwood and Doctor Who Christmas Specials on Dec 25 and blogged about all the excitement in my entertainment blog. Kylie Minogue will guest at a Titanic WAITRESS. Like most Who shows, this one has a twist, like the time when aliens stole a HOSPITAL and put it on the _____ (Spoiler). This time its a 71min show and it'll be set on the Titanic, with a twist. Hunt for the trailer if you want to know what it is. BBC will show the special on Dec 15, 8pm. The rest of the world will see it online Dec 26. Thank BIT TORRENT and online TV show sites. Also, I discovered that I have a copy of Lorie's CD, she's a french pop singer and it's a live album copy I've got. Funny thing is if you know french, you'd realize that the crowd shouting "LORIE-LORIE-LORIE!" is actually...

Listening to Lorie...Les Ventres Ronds

Here's the lyrics to the song Les Ventres Rounds (round tummies)ette saison, j'ai l'impressionEst favorable aux ventres rondsEcoutez bien cette chansonQuelques couplets, une attentionA toutes ces femmes arrondiesQui vont bientôt donner la vieEt qui font naître des enviesJe voudrais juste dire merci{Refrain:}Volez, volez les jolis ventres rondsIls sont touchants, ils sont si mignonsVolez, volez les jolis ventres rondsCe soir je vous dédie cette chansonQuand je les croise dans la rueJe les regarde l'oeil attendriJe leur souris, je suis émueAlourdies mais épanouiesLe poids de l'amourEntre fraises et mal au coeurN'est jamais trop lourdC'est juste un signe de bonheur{au Refrain}Dans leur regard si pétillantIl est écrit si simplementQue mettre au monde un enfantC'est se sentir vivant9 mois d'attente...

Abusive MMDA, how to defend yourself from them.

Got this from Cathie, hope it's real.SUBJECT: TOOLS AGAINST MMDA OFFICERS"I just reached my limit last weekend, and decided to take actionagainst the abusive MMDA enforcers. I basically called up the MMDA headoffice and inquired from the Personnel Officer, Antonio Pagulayan, toclarify their policies. Here is what I got. If any of these abuses seem familiar to you, Mr. Pagulayan has askedthat you call either the MMDA hotline (136) or call the METRO BASE at0920 9389861 or 0920 9389875 and ask for an Inspectorate. They will sendinspectors to the place where these MMDA officers are extorting, evenwhile you are arguing out of your apprehension."1. MMDA officers are not allowed to group together in order toapprehend. They are not even allowed to stand together in groups of 2 ormore. The only time...

How to print / open / read MDI on a MAC OS X?

How to print / open / read MDI on a MAC OS X? Apparently a pitfall for most new mac users. Right now i just use http://www.freepdfconvert.com/. It converts the MDI to a PDF w/c it email to me --then i print that. WARNING. If you have a lot of files, ZIP them first then upload to the site, because it has an anti-abuse mechanism that only allows you to send files for conversion--every 30 minutes only. You can bypass of course by using a different email. So there....
