NBA Conference Finals

Looks like the Spurs pulled it off again, beating the Hornets at their homecourt in game 7 and setting up a Lakers vs Spurs Western Conference Finals. I wonder how David Stern is feeling right now ? On one hand he could have his dream matchup of Lakers vs Celtics (will a new Lakers vs […]

Latrell Sprewell and Karma

Remember Latrell Sprewell ? Well it seems he’s fallen into hard times, I just love how karma works sometimes. In case you don’t know Latrell Sprewell is a former NBA player who refused a a $21 million contract because “he’s got a family to feed” (read: I’m greedy and want more money).

Sansa Clip Firmware 1.01.29 Update

Good news for Sansa Clip owners, firmware 1.01.29 just came out and it has loads of useful features. For me the best new feature is that podcasts and audiobooks are now treated separately from the music files (just put them in the Audiobook/Podcast directory or tag them as Audiobook/Podcast).

Cardinal Santos Hospital

I’m currently here at the Cardinal Santos Hospital where my wife will undergo an operation. I’ve been to quite a few hospitals and I gotta say if ever I had to be hospitalized (knock on wood!) the Cardinal Santos Hospital would be on the top of my list. This place is swanky and doesn’t have that hospital smell-of-death to it. They have a coffee vendo machine which has a gazillion different versions of coffee - coffee latte, frappucino, you name it they got it. The only downside is it’s very expensive especially the food. I bought a bag of Oishi crackers and it cost me P37, if I bought it in a grocery it would probably cost P12-15 these guys charge an arm and a leg! Oh well I guess if there’s any place where it’s gonna cost you an arm and a leg it’s a hospital. At least for me it’s only metaphorically and not literally.

Bonifacio High Street

I finally was able to go to Bonifacio High Street this saturday, for those who don’t know Bonifacio High Street is a row of upscale (read: expensive) retail stores and restaurants in Fort Bonifacio. There are actually two rows of establishments and in between them there’s sort of a mini-park where lots of people play around with their kids and/or walk their dog (and/or vice versa).

Battlestar Galactica Season 5 Premiere

Just finished watching the Season 5 Premiere of Battlestar Galactica. BOOM! Right at the start we’re treated to an awesome in space set piece battle. For a TV show the CGI in the sequence was top notch. The premiere follows the plot lines left hanging in the season 4 finale. Where did Starbuck come from ? How are the four cylons dealing with their newly revealed status ? What’s gonna happen to Baltar ?
