OBAMA - BIDEN, McCAIN - PALIN ; Who will win? ----m(O_O)m---

Will it be Obama and Biden?

Or McCain and Palin? You choose!

Here's my 2 cents on the candidates for the US Presidential race... between the Democrats and the Republicans I will put my chips on the Democrats... Obama and Biden had the most comprehensive and complete package AFAIK. Obama getting internal country matters taken cared of with Biden getting the job with his large experience on foreign policy. Popularity wise they are ahead of the pack. We call people like McCain traditional politicians (TRAPO) here locally. Trapo means "rag" btw and is a monicker given to old politicians that stayed too long in the government... it also may or may not be good to be associated with the current regime of current President George Bush...it is also not a good term to be stricken with.

McCain also chose an inexperienced running mate that knows 0% on foreign policies and can affect the outlook on their party. I just hope women votes from the undecided Hillary Clinton supporters would go her way. That's a big IF btw.

With the recent developments on Hillary's speech during the Democratic convention that pushed for the support on Obama's candidacy, it's more likely that they (including hispanics, other ethnic groups) would still stick to Democrats... But they will be given the hard task of getting these undecided ones on their side. It is hard because Obama of course had given his remarks on Hillary previously that may be well detremental to his ticket. McCain in the upcoming Republican Convention would take advantage of this and try to woo Hillary supporters to his side. With all that and Oprah, I'd say I will still put my 2 cents on Obama and the Democratic Party. Watch the African American guy get to the Whitehouse come election day.

Ely Buendia is now okay ^_^

My hero Ely Buendia is resting at a local hospital ^_^. He's okay now!

Articles from local news says Ely Buendia is now okay. Thank God!

“He had a slight attack because of stress due to the recent passing of his mother (Lisette Buendia), and their sound check which lasted till 3 a.m. today (Saturday),” said MTV Philippines and Radiohead director for marketing Ronald Esguerra “But we have received word that Ely is now in stable condition.”

My hero Ely Buendia suffered a heart attack on January 7, 2007 and had already undergone surgery.The concert, which was staged at the Fort Bonifacio Global City open field in Taguig, started at around 8:15 p.m. and paused for a break at around 9:30 p.m. The Eraserheads opened their much-awaited reunion concert with “Alapaap” and “Ligaya,” complete with fireworks display that bested even WWE!.After waiting at the open field for an hour since the intermission hoping for further developments, loyal fans of the band calmly left the concert area after being treated to a thrilling first set.I was touched by the fact that the fans did not clamour for the concert's continuance but understood that Ely has to be safe.

MTV Philippines’ Esguerra said that while he is hoping for a second Eraserheads reunion concert, there is still no word on whether another one would be staged.
“We have received no word of a Part Two but we also hope there will be one,” he said.

Here's there setlist btw!

Note: Ely Buendia is all things omnipotent for this blogger.
Thank you to everyone who like me made their own prayers for his safety.

KUMAGCOW'S Food Review: DQ Mango Almond Blizzard (1st Evah!)

Blizzards from DQ... something cold and X_X

Well people... I just had my first taste of DQ's Mango Almond Blizzard. Sorry to say, I just did not like it. You know why? The ice cream was not "mango" enough... there were not so much of a mango when I ate it... it would have been nice if it had mango bits on it... but instead they only put a measley amount of mangoish syrup on it that did not even taste like the real thing. The almonds? OMG.. I thought I would enjoy it but NO... the chunks of almonds were too big... and mind you when I took several crunches on it the almond skin sticks to your throat I coughed a couple of times ingesting this supposed treat. I did not enjoy it. The strawberry kitkat was way better. I'll give this 1 Kumag. Hey! At least I got fed right?

Ely Buendia was rushed to the hospital OMG! =O

RUSH UPDATE!!!

Ely Buendia was rushed to the hospital OMG. The Eraserheads Reunion Concert was cut short because of this. After they played their songs Alapaap and Ligaya they went on a break then the MTV Producer and his sister went up on stage after a 20 minute intermission number. They are all still on the field waiting for further announcements. Ely Buendia was rushed to the Makati Medical Center and doctors say it was due to overfatigue. Reports indicate that Buendia is now in stable condition. "He had a slight attack because of stress due to the recent passing of his mother, and their sound check which lasted till 3 a.m. today (Saturday)," said officials from MTV Philippines. They all asked for prayers for the band's lead singer and songwriter. IMHO they should have made practices days before the concert. How I just wish he's okay. I hope this is not the end of it. He collapsed and sat onstage after singing Lightyears and the audience thought he was just acting. Raimund Marasigan also came out onstage, followed by Marcus Adoro and Buddy Zabala who assisted Buendia's sister in announcing that the concert would no longer continue. Let's just pray for him T_T
