My take on online gambling January 16, 2008
Posted by uhuh in : Personal, Rumors, Society , add a commentI guess it is not because online casino sites exist online. There are hundreds of them actually and I know this because I Googled it. Yeah, I now know how to make some research through search engines so I pretty much know what I am talking about.
Let’s admit it. Some people just love online gambling and there’s no way we can put a stop to it especially if it is legalized in some regions of the world. In fact, Las Vegas’ main source of income is from gambling. So we really cannot stop the addiction unless there is an inner realization and metanoia for those who are actually hooked into it.
Anyway, most of the online casino sites provide links to other sites that actually conduct gambling transactions. I am not really sure how this is done because I have not tried anything like this, but I believe that these sites are secure and that they actually deliver. How else would these sites be useful if they don’t?
My parents taught me that this activity is not good but I guess in some parts of the world where wealth abounds, this is a different story. I have always been told to be frugal and thrifty so this thing is a no-no for me. But for people who have lots of money, this is just a regular activity for them.
Peso is getting stronger October 24, 2007
Posted by uhuh in : Income, Loneliness, Pain, Personal, Pinoy, Society , add a commentI am one of those folks who are troubled if they should be happy that the peso is getting stronger. Well I have some online money making gigs and I get paid in dollars, so the peso regaining momentum would mean lesser value for my dollar earnings.
But of course, I know that it is a good sign that the Pinoy currency is actually kicking some ass in the stock market. I just can’t help getting sad that my dollar earnings would suffer from this. Or perhaps I just don’t get it at all because I have no idea what accounting in San Diego means.
Oh well, I don’t know. I hope things get better soon, whatever that means.
Sam and Piolo attacked by gay rumors October 24, 2007
Posted by uhuh in : Celebrity, Lawsuit, Pain, Pinoy, Rumors, Shame, Society , add a commentThis is not the first time Piolo Pascual and Sam Milby are attacked by gay rumors. They have face many in the past. However, this is the first time that Piolo and Sam tried so hard to deny the accusations.
Just recently Lolit Solis wrote in her column that she saw Piolo and Sam at Sofitel hotel talking to each other in a rather intimate manner. She said she saw Piolo whispering to Sam’s ears and when they noticed her presence, they hurriedly got out of the area leaving Lolit wondering about the big rush.
Now, Sam is threatening to sue Lolit for her statements if she won’t issue a public apology. Lolit, of course, is not scared of this threat. She lashed back that Sam can sue her anytime and that she won’t take her word back.
All I can say is that this issue is so lame yet Sam is so affected by it. If he is not gay, then he is not. There’s no need to try to prove it by suing a journalist who has faced hundreds of libel suits already. Lolit is thick-faced and is used to getting sued already. Not even a face lift in Beverly Hills, CA can handle that thing.
Pinoys are hot these days October 6, 2007
Posted by uhuh in : Celebrity, Pinoy, Politics, Shame, Society, Television , 1 comment so farI wrote an entry just two minutes ago about a Pinoy former president being spoofed on American television. Well, a little bird told me that this is not the first time Pinoys made the international headlines this week.
A popular comedy show Desperative Housewives also made fun of the Pinoys. Teri Hatcher’s character Susan Mayer uttered these words:
Can I check those diplomas because I just wanna make sure they are from some med shool in the Philippines.
LOL. Teri should have refused to say those lines. But anway, she is not smart enough to make her own choices though.
And also, Britney Spears included Philippines in her Piece of Me song. Click here to see it for yourself.
Pinoy former president called a slut? October 6, 2007
Posted by uhuh in : Celebrity, Pinoy, Politics, Shame, Society, Television , 1 comment so farI heard from a friend today that a Pinoy former president named Cory Aquino was called a SLUT by some American TV Show. Now that’s way overboard.
That TV show is just so mean, calling people names like that. And I heard that two more women Presidents were also made fun of. Geez, I can’t believe TV has gone so low. I would have imagined that old lady crying over that remark. People just have no respect for women these days. And she is an old woman for crying out loud.
How cruel.
