KUMAGCOW MOOOOVIE REVIEWS : DESPERADAS 2 (All we need is Love)

Sunday, January 11, 2009



I had a blast last night when I went out with my friends to watch this Comedy film from the Metro Manila Film Festival called DESPERADAS 2 (All we need is Love). This is a sequel to the same film title last year which I watched with a different girlfriend lolz. It was nice to say at least becaus I was smiling at times and that's pretty hard to do in my books. Ruffa Gutierrez, Rufa Mae Quinto, Iza Calzado, Marian Rivera along with their fifth long-lost sister, Ogie Alcasid star in this very funny movie. I recommend you watch it!



Why you may ask?! I found it hilarious for one and you should never miss Ogie's role. That was the best! Ruffa (Isabella) is a non committing lady that tries a skin care business and made everybody else ugly. She was jailed in the last bit but bailed out by Ogie's character Luga Luda who is a princess of some filthy rich foreign island and kingdom in Africa. Rufa Mae (Patricia) had a rich boyfriend/politician that only made her into a bag lady for gambling/jueteng operations. The shopping was not that bad though... everybody enjoyed that in the movie. Iza (Stephanie) was a postpartum depression victim... after giving birth, she went to extremes of even trying to commit suicide in their front lawn. Eventually she was saved by a raindance by Ogie hahah. Marian (Courtney) is still a designer of underwear and bikinis that had a stalker and never got into bed with her husband because she said she was not prepared to have a baby. Ogie (Luga Luda) had a wonderful stint of having a boy of her own...her antics were just fun! I couldnt stop laughing in the massage scene. Poor boy got kissed a couple of times too hahaha. She had an unbreakable bond as half-sisters. The five are brought together by the love and affection they hold for each other.




All in all this was a nice movie. I don't watch Filipino Movies that much because they are somtimes predictable and too commercial. This was great considering they only landed on the 4th spot in the festival. If I were to judge they should have been second to Ang Tanging Ina nyong Lahat. ^_^ You should watch it since I gave it 4 KUMAGS out of FIVE.

Google Money Tree Legal Battle

Friday, January 09, 2009



I
heard cyberspace crime has gotten more advanced these days but now even web masters fall victim to these people from a Google Money Tree scam which supposedly hailed from and advertising company called Hydra Affiliate Network. An innocent publisher of http://www.shoemoney.com just got his picture posted in major Internet websites and was claimed to have participated in such horrendous operations of the site without his knowledge. It was even posted in major websites such as ESPN, THE HUFFINGTON POST and FOX NEWS. The list just goes on and on but they never even stopped. I just smell a major lawsuit in his hands because I believe he has been wronged and marred of his credibility. I just hope the Gods and Goddesses of the Internet listens to this innocent man’s plea for justice on a complicated version of identity theft.

What if this happened to us? I wouldn’t handle it this well to tell you frankly. I know there are huge scams in the Internet and I don’t want to be part of it. Getting someone's picture without his permission is just wrong. You can invoke all the rights in the world as you would like but if your turn comes and your privacy is on the line, you should never settle with what they want. You need to continuously fight and they on the other hand need to pay for what they did wrong. We always get that short warning of copyrighted images in the search engines, why on earth don’t we just practice netiquette where it’s supposed to. That’s just not right!

Disbarment VS Alabang Boys Attorney Mulled

VACC is now taking action on this Alabang Boys Lawyer!

A disbarment case against 2 of the infamous Alabang Boys was filed in the Supreme Court. Attorney Felisberto Verano is now under heavy scrutiny. Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption's chair Dante Jimenez filed a letter complaint for disbarment versus the said lawyer.

His actions were said out of context of the code of conduct of Lawyers for fixing release papers of the said publicly villained Alabang Boys. They said these ways of Verano should be stopped immediately because the Law is nothing to be played with. He also was complained about using a government agency's letter head even if he is in private practive. Everything is attached to the complaint, now it's up to the courts to spank this bad boy if he is proven guilty.

Debt Consolidation is a Smart Choice


Democrats said that they’d rather spend the money on the infrastructure, on direct investment, on energy conversion, on other kinds of things that much more directly, much more rapidly and much more certainly create a real job than to put tax cuts for everybody to enjoy. That in my opinion should be started selective and when their turn comes to a point that they already are within their means, then it should resume. The US Economy has got to show they know how to pay for their national loans too specifically because big bulks of their funds come from China and some countries in the EU.

His planned tax provision would provide a $500 tax cut for most middle class workers. There would be a $1,000 rate for couples too. This would cost the government an additional $140 billion to $150 billion over two years and over the $10.2 Trillion that will be passed on future generations of Americans. They plan to get these reliefs to worker’s paychecks directly which would make it more felt in their sector. Debt from government and medical bills were not discussed because his approach was more “General” in nature. He did not want to go into specifics at all because he knows both houses would meddle with plans in the economy. An answer to some of the common problems in debt would be consolidation so that people would end up paying for a single interest rate rather than paying different companies with higher ones. This is where http://www.budgetplanners.net can help immensely. They will readily provide information how to save your every penny through means on how to consolidate debt. The recession will surely never cease to exist this year but in order to survive; we have to make smarter choices. I just got my own lecture about it in their website, isn’t it time to have yours?
