I often visit web sites of my peers in the blog industry and read off what they have to say with life in general. I enjoy doing this in my spare time because you get to see what they think behind the keyboard and have a glimpse of what they have in mind at these times. There is a thing called link building that makes this activity extra special if you exchange putting in links on your site with another web master that has related content. If you add url link exchange activities in your daily blog routine then traffic from search engines become way better. Part of the charm of the netiquette these site owners apply is link exchange where you both add each others URL and make it beneficial with one another. It pays to actually cooperate with sites that have the same subject as you are so when your turn comes to be searched in engines all over the Internet; you would end up on the first line and on top. This is essential for businesses and the service industry where they find most of their clientele on the web.
If you are clueless about what SEO or Link Exchange is, I suggest you take a look at very useful sites like http://link-exchange.disastercover.com that has a lot of information on why and how you need simple link exchanges. I have done this in the past and got to where I am now in cyberspace where I have most of my rankings very high. It takes only a few minutes to understand the concept and I hope some of my friends here take time to read the articles there. I specifically would like to suggest you start with the ones on how it can help your site so you kind of get the idea what benefits you will reap at the end of the day. Who else should help us attain our goals but us! We just need the proper information to start how this is done and that is exactly what the site I mentioned has. Let's do this!
My Aunt's cremation went well. Relatives came by the dozen. Mom prepared food for the wake which she and my cousin sponsored. Turned out they had so much people who came there for it and they almost didn't get to eat. (Madami kasi MASIBA! Gusto pa ng Kanin! Hahah!) Though I couldn't blame them because my Mom makes the best Caldereta and Pancit Molo (no JOKE!). She even gets the ingredients from Iloilo or Bacolod before she cooks em here! Really authentic!
I'm so excited a MUJI store is opening here in Manila. It's in Bonifacio High Street and I couldn't help but think of hoarding organizers. I need that in my room. I can also start my Christmas shopping there. Oooh just thinking about how I'd spend on my card is getting me sick! hahah I have lots of plane tickets and hotel reservations to pay for heheh
I'll choose some rad shoes again for a coat and tie I picked up yesterday. I think it is becoming an obsession. Well not so much... just don't count the number of shoes I have on the shelf and I'm good as cured.
I'm off... gotta get home early and go out too. I wonder where my feet will get me today. I don't have friends on Fridays anymore. Sob story there!
Covering a wedding on Saturday, wish me luck with that!
Andres a swashbuckling private investigator was hired by the Manila chief of police for an assignment. He was in the prime of his youth, women adore him while guys envy him. His Mom was white as Redford; and Dad was black as Norman... he turned out to be as brown as Charlie. His name was legendary, since he was also a former member of the vamped up Manila Mayor's secret service. 3 women were by his side as associates; namely Marcela, Lorenza, and Delfina. The Manila City hall and Mehan Garden is not what you think it is. It served as their headquarters in the outskirts of Manila; marble slabs flipped off at a turn of a stone... they become mainframe computers and super machines. Various high powered armaments adorn it's walls while each white pillar contain Mammoth Tanks with high grade ultrasonic capabilities that could rip up a whole army in seconds. They are currently investigating a gang of Saibai Men said to have set foot in Manila to wreak havoc and employ street children for petty crimes. Intelligence reports these Saibai Men had weapons at their hideout in the South Harbor, Manila; it consists of rusty bolos from which death wil come from tetanus and not from its blunt blade, aluminum alloy baseball bats and a few hundred sumpak units. Apparently they were going back to the basics; since vintage was having a comeback, he wore a Dick Tracy like outfit while the girls wore 60's inspired numbers that made twiggy envy them. The Saibai Men caused quite a ruckus in the suburbs but they always made it look natural as if it weren't organized as it is. Someone is surely heading the operations and Andres wasn't confident his 3 associates could handle it (no matter how much "girl power" hype was present) so he went on alone on this quest.
He had 2 newly trained ASPIN dogs to accompany him named Bantay and Tagpi. Bantay was fitted with rocket propelled grenade launchers (hailed from MILF - JemaahIslamia technologies) and meat grinder teeth while Tagpi through advanced engineering had environmentally friendly bio diesel flame throwers, long razor sharp claws and bionic eyes. They all had overwhelming power written all over them when people see them on the streets. Andres was quite sure he'll find information on the pier. Even if it was a little far from his area of responsibility he scoured every Japan Surplus store and asked around for the Saibai Men which was the operating in Manila. It was a little dangerous since he was literally in enemy territory but he never hesitated. The Manila Police reported over transistor radios that the Sampaloc - Espana area were overtaken by them already. Students from UST were forced to give in lunch money, as locals passed out from the stench of flood from man made waste the Saibai Men prepared for over a period of 7 years. It was planned all along. Andres knew that he needed to see who started it all; he went through the side streets and went on to the Bureau of Customs. Who wouldn't suspect something fishy in a government office anyway! He secretly monitored the movement as these Saibai Men were being moved by the hundreds through huge cargo container vans. Andres immediately sought Bantay and Tagpi into action shooting ship cranes disabling them from carrying and taking Saibai Men defense forces inside the pier. Andres hastily ordered Bantay to immediately launch several missiles on the other boats since more of their minions were taking arms already. Tagpi on his own slashed his way through the rushing forces from the Saibai Men's front. They were no match for him.
Andres rushed to the commissioner's office and got the lead from bystanders that he was the culprit behind this brouhaha. Apart from another fleet of Saibai Men in the midst there were several mutants who stood guard for the man leading this operation. To get to that area he had to go through several walls put up on the camp cum South harbor. At this time a huge airplane flew on top of him and dropped several big boxes attached to gigantic parachutes. When it landed the boxes flipped open and there were Mammoth Ultrasonic tanks in it. The top cover opened and the three gorgeous ladies Marcela, Lorenza, and Delfina were all driving it.
Marcela, Lorenza, and Delfina
Bantay and Tagpi soon followed eliminating some of the Saibai Men guarding the gates. Andres hopped in and got on one of the tanks, fired it up and the first charge was shot. Then a huge wave came out of the tesla coil like front of the tank immediately tearing down the walls and obliterating stuff and Saibai Men that were on the way. They proceeded to the last one which was attached to the building... bore a hole on it exposing who the culprit was. "Hold it right there!" said Andres. When the smoke cleared they saw one familiar face carrying a couple of bolo's on his hand, he was juggling it and throwing several ones to Andres. It was the Chief of Police that hired him... shocked as Andres was he managed to dodge some of the blades; but there were still some that went through and got him wounded. He's doing hand to hand combat now and it wasn't easy battling it out with the cop. Boom!, Pak!, Thud!, Kapow!... Andres managed to cripple the cop, he's got an Aikido blackbelt to thank for that. On the ground, choking like a little kid he asked the cop why he did this... cop mustered strength to take a few seconds off the hold and spit on his face. Andres pressed a few nerves and got the cop to talk. "I needed an alibi to kill people and you were the perfect excuse... you spoiled my plans, so now we'll both die!"... Andres saw the cop press something within his shirt, he was full of c4 blocks inside his shirt. In 10 seconds it'll explode, so he hurriedly asked everyone to leave the premises. "KABOOOOOOOM!!!" the South harbor building exploded and everyone got out eventually... the girls got Andres out of the rubble. "Next time you play something like this alone we won't be here!" said Marcela. "Nah, I'm sure I can handle it!" said Andres grinning while clearing up everything on his face.
When I was in college there was only one guy I always with. He's my best friend Louie. We go way back; and if you ask him about who I am he'll probably tell you a lot than I normally would. He knows what I do behind the camera; and so do I with him. We met through a common friend almost hitting each other but we ended up getting along really well. We finish each others' sentences now and even stay late till the wee hours of the morning. He even taught me how to ride a motorcycle and I enjoyed it I was planning to buy a big one since I adore the ones I saw in MI2, have you watched that movie which Tom Cruise starred in?! Did you see the great bikes and motorcycle helmets shown there? How I wish I could have one of those!
My friend had to work because he just started a family. On his way to work a white plate motor bike cut him off the road and got him flying through the air. Unfortunately he didn't wear any protective gear and it almost got him bed ridden less you know what. He could have been better dressed in real deal motorcycle clothing and got tougher gear; and that was a big lesson he learned a little too late. I stayed with him in the hospital for a few months until he was able to attend physical therapy sessions. It was hard on him, his family and me. Today he spends doubly hard getting a job and keeping it. All that because he wasn't suited up for biking!
It pays to be prepared and safe. Life is indeed very fragile. I never thought it would happen to someone very close to me let alone my best friend. We need all the things that can protect us from harm's way. If it's going to cost me more than black leather pants then I'm all for it. It's that plus the fact that I look good in leather jackets too. I heard the on line store called leather up has jackets, helmets and boots on their catalog. We might as well take a look at the armored jackets, SHOEI helmets (which I personally prefer) and great flame designed boots that they have because we can get it at half the price! Isn't that sweet! We get to protect ourselves and get the best deal too. I better tell some of my friends about it. We need to be better equipped these days so we won't be sorry when accidents happen.
Do you have your own motorcycle story to tell?! Let me know!
