Miss Teen USA 2007 - South Carolina on Today show

She tries to defend herself. Starts out convincing, ends up showing off her true colors. That last question must have been fixed.

Inside your hard disk

Okay, this is really nerdy but it's interesting. It's like finding out how the brain works or getting to know a side of someone you don't know. Hahaha!

Thriller in Cebu

Saw this on Anderson 360 (On CNN). I didn't know it was from the Philippines at first.. (I automatically assumed that orange jerseys are standard prison wear)

Well, there's so much to say about this video. What a great way to deal with prisoners! I'm sure they turn out softer after doing tons of these dances--and apparently, they do have other dances. Why the hell are they dancing anyway? Are they competing in an inter-prison showdown? Only in the Philippines would prison gang wars be resolved though dance!! Hahaha!! They're all synchronized too! This is just incredible.

Also check out their other videos on youtube.

Update: 2008 Toyota Corolla


Check it out, a very detailed overview of the upcoming 2008 Toyota Corolla.

Am getting myself one when it comes out. I wonder what other colors they'll have. Anyone know when this will come out?

Family Guy, Simpsons, SouthPark CrossOver Moments

Apparently there's a rivalry going on between Simpson's, Family Guy, and South Park fans.

Well, as much as I love the Family Guy, they clearly are a rip off of the Simpsons. But no matter what, you've got to love the three shows just the same.

Megan Fox on Jimmy Kimmel Live

We've got a winner here!! Some people say she's just trying to copy Angelina Jolie. But if you look like her--which would be described as uber hot, which is two notches above hot--who cares anyway!?

Try to find her FHM photos. That's it right there.

Rundown Feb 2007

No posts in months means I'm giving you a quick, off-the-desktop roundup of what's new in my material world.


1) Enviga - Calorie burning iced tea, from the makers of Nestea and Coke.



2) Sunset at Anilao - Yes, another sunset shot--I just can't get enough of those. Am serious about taking diving certification. Am already screening rates, places, and dates.



3) 2008 Corolla - This is the concept for the 2008 Corolla. Hopefully, by that time, I would have a 'budget' to get one. Official statement from Toyota is they moved the release of the all-new Corolla (leaving the Civic with a lot of breathing room) because their engineers were too busy with the new Camry. And seeing the new Camry, the 2008 Corolla should be a sight for sore eyes.





4) 2007 Honda CR-V - It's a whole lot curvier than the previous ones. No, I won't have enough budget for something like this in the next 5 years but I just want to point out that there's a new one. I wonder if there's a pretty RAV-4 in the works.



5) Nokia E65 - Due out later this year, this is Nokia's first attempt at a slim slide-up phone. It being a candy bar is a bit of a drag, but it's slim and slides up and it's Nokia so that must be a good thing right?



6) Samsung Ultra Edition U600 - Staying at pace with the leaders in the slim-phone range, Samsung comes up with a slim, slide-up with a large screen.

The Perfect Human

Dean Karnazes ran 50 marathons in 50 days. He does 200 miles just for fun. He'll race in 120-degree heat. 12 secrets to his success.

DEAN KARNAZES WAS SLOBBERING DRUNK. IT WAS HIS 30TH BIRTHDAY, and he'd started with beer and moved on to tequila shots at a bar near his home in San Francisco. Now, after midnight, an attractive young woman – not his wife – was hitting on him. This was not the life he'd imagined for himself. He was a corporate hack desperately running the rat race. The company had just bought him a new Lexus. He wanted to vomit. Karnazes resisted the urge and, instead, slipped out the bar's back door and walked the few blocks to his house. On the back porch, he found an old pair of sneakers. He stripped down to his T-shirt and underwear, laced up the shoes, and started running. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
