http://my.earthlink.net/article/top?guid=20130121/3057877d-a66d-40ca-b2cb-d8b7ed9c390a

On President Barack Obama's 2nd Inauguration, here's sharing again my tribute -

What can be a better, more special day than to have an Afro-American US President to take his 2nd inauguration on Martin Luther King's Day!

CONGRATULATIONS, MR. PRESIDENT, AND MORE POWER! MAY YOUR VISION OF A UNITED COUNTRY AND THE WORLD COME TO LIFE IN YOUR LIFETIME.

FORWARD!

49ers Did It!

49ers has just won the NFC Championship!

http://my.earthlink.net/article/top?guid=20130120/6d143de0-ae1e-41c6-b59d-a060e14b0533

Whoa, wouldn't it be nice if the 49ers win the SUPERBOWL next week like the SF GIANTS won the WORLD SERIES for the same year?! Another parade?!

FEAR THE NINERS! I don't know about Crabtree. I'll give you 
The benefit of the doubt, but better behave yourself, man!

What a 49er Mess!

What's this about the Crabtree incident? Michael, DAMN! This is what happens when a sports team wins. They become so overconfident, or is it complacent, that they think they're God and they can do anything. Remember when the DENVER BRONCOS won the NFC and went on to the Superbowl and on the eve of the big day, one player was arrested for drunk-driving? You think the Broncos won - NO!!
I mean, the game isn't over, Crabtree! And this is a team effort! You just changed the mentality of the whole team! While everyone else is all set to win the NFC, you dampened everyone's spirit with whatever you did! Oh yes, everything is under investigation and yes, you're innocent till proven guilty. But why behave badly, in the first place?! Sexual assault - it's not clear yet. It may have been with consent! Who knows? But can't you just have a little discipline and focus on the forthcoming game like your teammates?

Pictures,videos, breaking news... it's HOLLYWOOD!

Fashion, love, relationships, confessions...

Yeah, confessions! Did Jodie Foster really say she was gay? My tv went dead at that most crucial moment after she said," I am single..." What'd she say next?

On the other hand, that's the price of being a celebrity, a public figure, or anybody, for that matter. Privacy?! It's the thing of the past! You search any name and Google finds it. You can be on youtube even without trying. On FB, and who is not, and you're tagged everywhere! Someone "shares" your photos on the internet, even those which shouldn't be there!

I feel compassion for Jodie Foster, Anderson Cooper, and all others who come out of the closet and admit they're gay. Why, why do they have to say anything? Do they owe it to the world to tell the truth about their sexualities? They can tell their closest friends, their families, if they choose to, but the whole world, they owe nothing! They owe it to themselves to keep their privacy! But yeah, sad, sad to say, privacy is history.

It's a different story with the likes of Lance Armstrong and others in sports, for example, who should admit to taking drugs "to WIN!". That's downright cheating! That's unacceptable! On the other hand, to those who have admitted, I give them respect 'cause it takes a lot of courage to do that... "And truth will set you free."

But sexuality, what's wrong with that? You're entitled to who you are, what you are, how you are - to be yourself! But if coming out will be such a big relief, so they can move on with their lives, I admire and respect them all for that. It must be a hard decision to make. I bet Jodie Foster was utterly nervous and anxious for the entire evening of the Golden Globe Awards just waiting for her name to be called for the Cecile B. DeMille Award. Hats off to her!

To Jodie Foster, 50 more years!

One Magic Word

Out of all the positive thoughts, notes, words of wisdom, inspiration and so on, that I came across this past holiday on the internet, FB, twitter, email, and the like, one word struck a nerve. It hit me like magic, I don't know why, how, but I'm gonna carry that with me this whole new year and beyond - TRUST.

After the Holidays

So much to catch up on! After the holidays, there's just too many things to do - bringing down the Christmas tree and decor, cleaning up all the mess, (I ain't complaining!), paperwork, paying bills where you left off, (that, I'm complaining!) - I just don't know where to start! 

Where do you begin? What do you do? And I've got to prepare for my trip to MNL, too!

HELP!

This is Funny!

The Christmas card I gave Norman had 2 cut-out pictures of bathrobes. And guess what he gave me for X'mas, one of them, anyway - a bathrobe! 

Now is that coincidence or what?!

GREETING HAPPY NEW YEARS, MANY NEW YEARS AHEAD!!!!


The end of the world averted 
It's a new life, new beginnings
Happy New Year, Twenty thirteen
And more HAPPY NEW YEARS coming!!

HERE'S TO LIFE, LOVE, HEALTH, PEACE, HAPPINESS, JOY AND MUSIC FOREVER!!!
