Superbowl Commercials

Miss the Superbowl?  Well mashable has the most important part – all the Superbowl commercials in one place!

My favorite one is the Ferris Bueller “remake” which Honda did.

Merry Christmas!

 

Oh Charlie Brown, where have you gone?

Pig

There are few things as delicious as a roast pig.

Crispy skin, juicy fat, tender meat.  Yummy in my tummy.

The pig above is is “lechon” (suckling pig).  One of my favorite types is crispy pata.  Both ways common in the Philippines.

Rehash

I was browsing through my blog, looking at old entries (is this similar to typing one’s name into a search engine?), and this one caught my eye.

Blue line to Wonderland

Wonderland

I think about how life was a year ago.  Happy hours, video games, and a general carefree lifestyle. Perhaps not the most fulfilling activities but enjoyable.

Travel has started again.  Taiwan last week, Japan next week, Seattle in June, and perhaps a stop or two in New York or Europe.  There’s something calming about being in transit.

I will remember today

I went for drinks, a lot of beer.  It was a hard day.  I got home and went into the elevator; a lady stepped in too. Her perfume smelled good.  It was late at night, perhaps awkward to start conversation. I wanted to ask her where she had been, what she was doing, why did she wear this perfume? Instead, as neighbors do, we stood in the elevator silently. I fiddled with my phone and tried to download e-mail. Connections never work in an elevator.

The universe conspires?

Even very minor events are likely to shape your life in the next few months. You’ll be developing as yet undreamt of dimensions to your character, so follow your intuition. The whole financial position is about to change, for the better.

Perspective

Friend passed this along.

We do live with some pretty amazing things.
