Something to Think About

Here’s an e-mail that has been circulating around for quite some time.


Dear Anak,

Naipadala ko na 50 thousand pesos na tuition fee mo, pinagbili na namin ang mga kalabaw natin. Ang mahal pala ng librong COUNTER-STRIKE, wala na din pala tayong baboy naibenta na din para dun sa sinasabi mo na project nyo na NOKIA N95, ang mahal naman ng project nayun. kasama din ang 7 thousand dun para sa field trip nyo sa MALL OF ASIA, anak malayo ba yun mag ingat ka sa pagbibiyahe mo, isasanla pala namin ang palayan natin para mabili mo na yung instrumentong iPOD na kinakailangan mo sa laboratory nyo. Anak komportable kaba diyan sa boarding house mo san ba kamu yan sa VICTORIA COURT – maganda ba dyan di ba mainit diyan. Anak kamusta na pala yung group project nyo na SANMIG LIGHT, napailaw nyo na ba? Mataas ba nakuha nyo na grado dun.


Anak, sana bago pa maubos ang lahat lahat ng arian natin ay maka gradweyt kana, walong taon ba talaga ang kurso mo sa SECRETARIAL, sana pag graweyt mo makakuha ka ng trabaho kaagad kagaya ng manager ng kumpanya para mabawi natin ang mga ari arian nating sa sanglaan. Ay sya nga pala anak diba sabi mo sa JOLLIBEE ka palagi kumakain ok ba naman sayo ang mga ulam dyan baka hindi masarap kawawa ka naman. Eh yung school bus nyo na TAXI sabihin mo sa driver mag ingat siya sa pag dri-drive.


Anak, hanggang dito nalang at sa susunod ay ipapadala ko sayo ang pera na pambili mo ng ALTIS na gagamitin mo sa VACANT SUBJECT mo.


Nagmamahal,
Itang at Inang

P.S. Anak mag aral ka ng mabuti.

People often forward this to their contacts because they think it’s funny. I think it’s hilarious! But I also believe that this is a sad reflection of reality today.

Getting Down and Dirty with iPhone FW2.0 and App Store

Thanks to the iPhone Dev Team, my first-gen iPhone is now running App Store apps courtesy of the unlocked and jailbroken iPhone 2.0 firmware. After fiddling with it for a couple of hours, here’s what I found:

The Not-So-Good Stuff:

  • iPhone FW2.0 is a bit sluggish compared to its predecesor, FW1.1.4
  • MobileME is still very buggy. I added two contacts on the web version and it got pushed to my laptop a few minutes later and to my iPhone 10 minutes later. Not good considering it’s supposed to PUSH information instantly or at the very least after a few seconds.
  • Some App Store apps are still very buggy causing it to quit suddenly and sometimes even cause the iPhone to reboot spontaneously.
  • Still no flash support in Safari.
  • Still no A2DP (wireless music streaming over Bluetooth) support.

Yup, the Eraserheads are at it Again

Yes, the buzz you’ve been hearing is true. The band that energized the Philippine pop rock scene in the 90′s will be doing a reunion concert on August 30, 2008.

Oh and the best part? It’s gonna be FREE.

I know you want details, you’ll know more when I know more so keep an eye on this page.
