Cory brought respect back to the Filipino people. We were once a beacon of hope to the rest of the world. We were respected and admired.
Alas, the rest that followed her, especially the one clutching her throne now in Malacanang has brought nothing but shame to our nation.
Let us continue her fight.
Ninoy, Cory, di kayo nag-iisa!

Melamine
I read in the Inquirer a few days ago yet another story on the melamine menace inflicted upon us by evil businessmen from China. This is about the whole Sunflower cracker boo-boo. Initially they said it was found to have the now dreaded "M" in it's ingredients. This was later found to be suddenly safe (i wonder how much money exchanged for that to happen), and here is where i would like to point out the kicker....... Apparently, the tests showed that the melamine content in the Sunflower crackers was below the maximum allowed content according to the BFAD..............wait a fuc*ing minute....SO THEY KNOW it's there and they are allowing it? For how long now, i wonder?
That would also mean that LOCAL businessmen, the greedy and evil kind, are knowingly poisoning people for financial gain. That just sucks. Period. I personally haven't been eating Sunflower crackers for over a decade now, but now that this is out, i'm never touching their company's products from now on, and that goes the same for my family.
Be wise, people. Now is the time for vigilance. For the sake of profit, you don't know what these food manufacturers are putting in our food.
Be vigilant. The food that we enjoyed when we were young may not be good anymore.
Stay healthy. Think healthy. Be picky in what you eat and try to go for natural and organic stuff. You might be feeding your kids with toxic substances. Do a bit of research from now on on the food that you eat, especially that which you prepare for your kids.
Another problem that's surfacing is the added contamination in eggs and other food sources. Apparently these evil Chinese businessmen have gone to mixing the melamine in feeds. So now it's being consumed by chicken and possibly even pork and even beef, i guess. Hmmm.....chicken, pork, beef.....these are what we consume on a regular basis, correct? OMG. This is getting a bit out of hand. Even if they say that the amounts are minimal, we are still putting the melamine in our bodies clogging your liver and kidneys and who knows what else?
We should all go cold turkey for a while. Let all the stocks be left unsold and rot. It should not be in the feeds. It should not be eaten by the animals that we eat, for crying out loud! That's just sick. Really sick.
Melamine should be IN THE PLATES that we eat off of, yes, as in Melawares (the plastic plates sold in malls... Melaware is a brand, for those who do not know), NOT IN THE FOOD that we eat. Sheesh!!!

Metro Manila Asphalt Menace!
You have probably seen this.......a contractor laying asphalt. Typical, right? To the point that you see that they NO LONGER "cook" the asphalt but just shovel dry asphalt into a hole on the road AND LEAVE IT THERE for unsuspecting motorists to drive over them and compact it for them. The effect, the TAX PAYING motorists like you and I get blasted with asphalt in running over these improperly laid asphalt and from the vehicle in front of us who's tires are spewing the asphalt on the face of our cars. UNACCEPTABLE!!!
Just so you would know, i experienced this just before lunch on my way to the office along C5 road. C5 road! One of the major highways of Metro Manila. Was it a side street, maybe? No. It was on the C5 Highway itself! It's at the point around 700 meters before the spot where the road forks going to the service road, on the 1st and 2nd lane from the right side (the "slow lane").
To the contractor....SHAME ON YOU! Companies like you contribute to the decay of our country. Only profits are on your mind. That was a very dangerous thing that you did. What if cars panic-braked and caused an accident? Karma will get you, that's certain.
To the government office that paid for this....BOOO!!! How did you choose this contractor? Another rigged bidding? You MOST LIKELY over-paid for this asphalt-laying so they should have at least made a good job. Do you even monitor them? I guess not. Contractors like this should be banned. Very irresponsible of them and they endanger the lives of motorists.
Voice your complaints people! Nothing will get done when we just choose to shut up and ignore this kind of thing! I for one will complain.
Wag nating babuyin ang ating bansa! Our leaders don't really care about this because no one gets punished. Doesn't mean though, that we should do the same.
It's high time that we give a damn!

My last post didn't go through.... :(
Such a pity.
I was posting through Facebook a couple of days ago, but my blog didn't go through. :(
Bummer.
Anyway, i'll just try to summarize it.
I FINALLY got the 2009 Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Turbo! I am SO happy. This is my dream car that came true. :)
Special thanks to my partners - Andrew, Dale and Mr. Ed Diaz, for helping me make this dream come true.
The new Forester is fantastic. Very smooth. Very fast (at 230hp). I haven't fully broken it in yet, but it runs like silk.
The 2009 Subaru Forester is a great SUV! Will beat anything in it's level (or even, higher, come to think of it) in safety and performance.
It surpasses all American, Japanese and Korean SUVs (and a few of the European ones as well) in terms of safety - with full curtain airbags, front to rear, Vehicle Dynamics Control, anti-roll..... the works. It even got a 5 out of 5 Star crash rating with the NHTSA and the IIHS.
Did i already say that the new Forester is fast? :)
It's not a guzzler, either. It consumes the same amount of gas as my 2.3 liter 2005 Mazda Tribute. Pretty good, if i may say so myself. :)
Looking for a new ride? Don't go down the beaten path. Get the new 2009 Forester and put a huge smile on your face!
Cheers!

The 2009 Subaru Forester
Thank you Lord! The 2009 Subaru Forester is now here! =)
I can't wait to sell our Mazda Tribute and get this Forester that i have been wishing for. My friend Andrew and I saw the units in advance last Monday. I am very satisfied with the way it looks and the REAR LEGROOM that it now has (and then some). Fantastic! A test drive is not offered as of yet. MotorImage says that they do not test drive units unless a unit has been purchased by the company or someone from the company. For now the units are already reserved for quite a few clients. Envy....... but not for long! =)
I WILL sell my Mazda Tribute for a very good price in the next few days and after that... I WILL GET A BRAND NEW 2009 SUBARU FORESTER! I CLAIM IT IN JESUS' NAME! AMEN AND AMEN!! =)
peace out!
