Poor You!

Just got a nasty comment from a pathetic individual.  You know who you are.  If you're reading this, then I guess you really like my blog.  Why bother going back here to check what I have to say about you?  

You seem to have a lot of anger in you.  I'd guess because you lacked caring and love.  Poor, poor you.

You dare call me a faggot when you didn't even have the balls to post your own name.  I'd say you're the faggot by hiding as an anonymous poster.  I suggest you write your own blog.  It'll make a good catharsis for you.  

Something New from Samsung: Galaxy S III

After all the buzz around the market entrance of the IPhone 4S, here comes the Samsung Galaxy S III!  It is bigger (screen size), thinner, and lighter.  To compete with IPhone leading operating system (iOS), Samsung is now introducing the Ice Cream Sandwich version of the Google Android OS Ver. 4.0.

This phone addresses the common user complaint specific to the screen dimming feature of  many mobile phones to date.   Samsung's solution:  SMART STAY.  This feature utilizes the front facing camera to detect if someone is looking at the screen, if it does, the screen won't dim.

Other features include:  SVoice, voice recognition; Smart Alerts for missed call reminder; SBeam for file transfer; and, Pop Up Play, for picture-in-picture multitasking.

The phone will come in PURPLE BLUE and MARBLE WHITE with 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB memory.  

No price announcement as of yet.

Why It's Hard to be The President

Damn if you do and damn if you don't.  This is the reason why it's difficult to become the President of a country.  There will always be somebody who will not subscribe to what you have to say or do.   In this job---there is no pleasing everyone.

For those of us from the outside looking in it is very easy to be critical.  Often times our opinion is based on a specific point of view.  You may have your point but as a president you will need to see past the specific to what would benefit the majority.  

Just recently, PNoy rejected the Php 125 across the board wage hike that the labor sector has been clamoring for.  For many expectant workers this is definitely not a popular decision but in retrospect it is the right decision considering the potential backlash of company closure and the accompanying unemployment of some 527,000 workers.  It will also affect the competitive position of the Philippines in terms of the global investment market.  However, even with this reasoning, you still won't be able to please everyone.  

Hirap talagang maging Presidente!

Bato-bato sa Langit...

Ang company phone po ay hindi nauubusan ng load kasi post-paid sya.  There is also such a thing as call and text unlimited within the company circle.  Ang ibig sabihin po nito ay wala pong dahilan na di sumagot sa mga text at tawag na galing sa mga internal kustomer!  Manong man lang isang text para ma-acknowledge ang tawag at text sa iyo.  Pero kung ganyan rin lang na di ka sasagot e mas mabuti pang bawiin nalang sa iyo ang cellphone mo!  

Unless...wala kang maisagot kasi di mo alam ang trabaho mo...in this case, e dapat yatang tanggalin ka na sa trabaho kasi pabigat ka lang sa kumpanya!

Avengers: Nick Fury

I grew up reading comic books.  I practically learned the English language reading Spider-man, Batman, Incredible Hulk, Superman, Green Lantern, and yes---Avengers comics.  

Movies eventually gave real life personification to these characters and I have indulged myself in almost every film depicting my favorite superhero.  However, I get irked when the characters I knew from my childhood are defined contrary to the way I knew them.  One such character is Nick Fury.

David Hasselhoff played Nick Fury in the Fox TV movie
Nick Fury:  Agent of SHIELD 

Nick Fury is a fictional World War II army hero and present day super-spy.  He is actually a contemporary of Captain America which leads you to wonder why in the hell is he still alive to this day.  Well, if Captain America was injected super soldier serum, Nick Fury was on an anti-aging serum---Infinity Formula--- that practically stunted his aging process.  He has no super power but he is a master strategist and a born leader with a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and a brown belt in Jiu Jitsu.  He is a war veteran of World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War, and other unspoken of conflicts where he lent his consultancy and went on missions in.

Well, I knew Nick Fury as a cigar chomping bad ass with an eye patch---and he was a WHITE DUDE!  This is why I was taken aback when he was portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson in Iron Man 2.  Obviously I'm no longer attuned to the latest in the comics world and did not know that this version of Nick Fury existed in a Marvel parallel universe.  This version of Nick Fury debuted in Ultimate Marvel Team-ups #5 (August 2001).
