Aaaaaaaaagggghhhh! I'm so bored!


My god! Its so booooooooooooohhhhhhhhring today. I'm so bored I'd rather lie down and sleep until tomorrow afternoon.

Met up with Zac at Shang EDSA about the Internet Cafe. Our first all-business talk meeting for the Internet Cafe. Too bad Franz wasn't there. Mike came too so we can talk about the game console place thing. Initially the Internet Cafe was just me, Zac and Franz and Me and Mike for the game console place thing. Eventually we (Zac, Mike and I) started talking about combining our efforts for one giant gaming establishment place. Franz hasn't given his input yet but we'll talk to him soon.


Afterwards Mike, Zac and I saw a sign that encouraged us to pursue this even further. After that Mike separated to pick up his loving wife in the Mall next to where we were. Zac and I went on to watch Kung-Fu Hustle.

It's a kick-butt action comedy. I liked it alot.

Earlier this week Cheryl Nera started chatting with me on YM. It's not really a big thing but it surprised me is all. She's still in Malaysia but she'll be back in Manila by middle of March for some much needed and sought-after vacation. After that its off to her quest for an MBA.

I also had a couple of job interviews this week so things are looking up. I hope to get that SAP/ABAP programming job. My chance to go into the complex and difficult world of SAP.

Boring ass sunday


I was supposed to hook up with Zac to talk about the Internet Cafe, but he called that morning saying he was called away by his mom. So the day went tits up at about 10:30am. So I thought 'fuck it! i'm gonna watch a movie'

I had like three movies to choose from that I wanna watch Ocean's Twelve, Kung-Fu Hustle and Blade Trinity. I know, I know. Blade Trinity. I gotta watch it. Its the last film of the first comic movie that paved the way for everybody else. So it gets its due from me even though Triple H is in it. HHH's work ethic aside i still don't like him.

Anyway, I went over the Edsa Shang cause I've never seen their renovated theatres. Its supposed to be better now. So at the ticket counter, I find out that Blade and Kung-Fu Hustle have started. I hate to start a movie late so I decide to watch Ocean's Twelve. I buy a moderately large cup of root beer and a prism shaped cup of buttered popcorn and wne in the theatre. The threatre is so-so.

From the opening scene of the movie with Pitt and Jones, I got to thinking 'What the hell am I watching?'. Of course I stuck around until the end despite that comment.

Ocean's Twelve blows. The majority of the movie was the group stroking the Nightfox's ego by acting like thir bumbling their attempt at theft The group has already stolen the egg while they were at the train station yukking it up. The cameo of that Topher guy form 'That 70's Show' was pointless. Bruce Willis's cameo was suprising. At that moment I was hoping he would be playing Hudson Hawk in the movie and recognize Matt Damon's character or Don Cheadle's character as a colleague and he would be the twelfth member but that is too far fetched. I'm ranting here. I'll stop.

I checked the movie schedules again after to see if what time Hustle and Blade would start but both movies started a good 15 minutes before Ocean's Twelve eneded. So I'll watch those next time. For the rest of the afternoon I walked around the mall checking out girls. But its was sunday. A family day. So not a lot to see. The few girls I did see were leaning on the skanky side.

Then I got home and watched tv and thought about other entreprenuerial stuff for the rest of the night.

Man does anyone read these?

WILL EISNER DIES


Influential comics creator Will Eisner passed away on Monday.

Eisner, 87, had been recovering from quadruple bypass heart surgery.

Below is an excerpt from the obituary from the Lakeland (Fla.) Ledger:

"Eisner started making comics in the 1930s. He was the first to use "silent" balloonless panels to emphasize emotions, by focusing the reader's attention on finely wrought facial expressions. He addressed subjects considered unthinkable in comic books and rarely seen at the time in newspaper comics: spousal abuse, tax audits, urban blight and graft.

"His first graphic novel, A Contract with God, published in 1978, combined comic books and literary novels.

At its height, The Spirit, created in 1940, had a weekly circulation of 5 million with 20 newspapers inserting it into Sunday editions. The supplement consisted of a comic book with three self-contained stories, and The Spirit became the most popular.

In the comic written and illustrated by Eisner, the title character was a coroner named Denny Colt, believed murdered by a mad scientist's potion but actually buried alive. He protected the fictional Central City, which was based on New York.

Eisner was drafted during World War II, and the Army had him create "Joe Dope" to teach Jeep maintenance to soldiers with a bumbling comic character.
After the war, he went back to The Spirit and continued the series until 1952. The Army also hired him for more instruction manuals, which he produced until the 1970s.

Human Beings

Whats worse than tsunamis and water borne diseases? human beings.

They gnaw at the fabric of morality and compassion. Opportunists lie in wait not caring for the water borne diseases they may get ravaging the victims of the tsunamis. Doesnt matter if they play the 'caste system' card tojustify their actions. Rape is rape. They have to be put down like the dogs they are

To anyone who reads this, tell me if the perpertrators religion or position in society has anything to do with their reason to rape a child. If it is, that ain't right. Its never right to rape a child.

I wish those perperators die. I wish their dicks shrivel up and fall of because of the water-borne diseases. I wish they get raped till they die. Does anybody have a genie? i wanna make a wish real bad. I wanna make these wishes come true too.
 

mikoroshi

Unbelievable cowardice of the japanese police.

Click here to read the article

Mikoroshi. Its a dirty word. Dirtier than shit, cunt, fuck, bitch and any other shit you can think of. Its dirtier than any word Geroge Carlin can come up with. Don't do it. Show the balls that you're not gonna stand idly by.

I wish those cops die. I wish they get beaten up in front of their families and leave them conscious enough to know that the beating will go on until their entire family dies of the fmaily tree. Does anybody have a genie? i wanna make a wish real bad. I wanna make these wishes come true too.

By the way, if the yakuza are doing crimes and everybody knows it? Why doesnt anyone do anything about it?
 

Egorot no more.

Check the new title of my blog. Its the name of the site i had at freewebs. "Egorot" - What was i thinking? maybe i should've written it like this: "Ego Rot". Might've made more sense.
