Let me count em...

3. Ive quit facebook, why???? I am also asking.
4. Gaining weight.... hope I can lose it by year end (this would require a journal, which this blog will be a part of)
5. In misery
6. Currently soul searching
7. Trying to do things that would keep myself busy
8. Got acquainted with new peeps....
9. Trying to motivate self to be productive
10. Should go to anger management.

Just give me sometime to shake the rust and the cobwebs and those for the the few who follow me, expect the mediocre me to provide mediocre journal of my so called life and the people that I came across.

The Benefits of Sex

Did you know that you can tell from the skin whether a person is sexually
active or not?


1. Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find that when woman make
love they produce amounts of the hormone estrogen, which make hair
shiny and skin smooth.

2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of suffering dermatitis,
skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced cleanses the pores and
makes your skin glow.


3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on during that romantic
dinner.

4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up. It stretches and tones
up just about every muscle in the body. It's more enjoyable than swimming
20 laps, and you don't need special sneakers!


5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases the chemical
endorphin into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving
you with a feeling of well-being.


6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered. The sexually
active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals called pheromones.
These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex crazy!


7. Sex is the safest tranquilizer in the world. IT IS 10 TIMES MORE
EFFECTIVE THAN VALIUM.


8. Kissing each day will keep the dentist away. Kissing encourages
saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the level of the acid that
causes
decay, preventing plaque build-up.


9. Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking session can release
the tension that restricts blood vessels in the brain.


10. A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural
antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.


Now its time for everyone to do God's work and spread the legs.... errr the word I mean.... A little sex wont hurt anyone as what Russell Brand has said... so its true sex helps you more ways than one... But still practice it safely....

But if there are any woman that is in doubt of the facts stated, allow me to demonstrate with the help of the person in question of course...........

Heard and Read Somewhere

Have you guys ever encountered quotes or saying that was so funny or stupid that you tend to absorb it and use it once in a while... here are some of them:

Heard during a basketball game wherein the coach of the team which is trailing by so many points is trying to motivate his team during a huddle:

" Remember guys, Basketball is a team sport.... it was invented by James Naismith in Springfield Mass." ( whats the motivation there, obviously the coach ran out of encouraging words)

How about the fun line from the Little Rascal Movie:

Old Man: If I were your parents, I'd punish you!
Kids: If you were my parent, I'd punish myself!

I guess I forgot the rest.......

Women Knows how to fight too... WNBA style

Rolling with the Punches

And finally Im back again after several weeks of doing stuffs that are no way related to blogging. And what have Ive observing lately, for me, is just crazy funny.

There were days IM so pre-occupied by some not so-senseless thoughts like images of politicians in every government funded projects.. My take is they should not place their names or pictures there, no need to glorify them that they came up with the idea for the road pavement the new pedestrian bridge... Thats their job, thats why they were seated in office for them to do that. I wouldnt even mind if they actually did the whole construction of the project, then they can proudly say that it was their project.

I also came to think that I might try stand up comedy... I might video myself and post in on youtube.com. I do have the comic material already, but Im not quite sure if I'll be doing it in filipino or in english. People that knew me well, might agree, and hopefully they would, that Im in a funny person. That part is left for the people who would be watching me soon.

Now during my free time Im in a way busy with giving out advice to people I know and also strangers.. I think Im effective with the advice thing because some of them are still coming back for more....

I just hate it when you think of something, specifically a great idea while you are on the road traveling, and by the time you reach your destination you completely forget about it.

Now I dont know why I placed the title Rolling with the punches, coz on my way to work I already had the idea.....

Way to Go Agent Zero

I have to give my sincerest hats off to Mr. Gilbert Arenas who recently visited Manila. Why? Because he deserves one.... If you would be reading his blog you would see how much he appreciated the hospitality and warmth of the Filipino people, we should have more visitors like this.....You guys should visit and view his blogs for more of a clearer details ( http://my.nba.com/forum.jspa?forumID=400032200&start=0 )

An excerpt on his excellent blog goes like this:
"One thing I want to say about Filipinos: they’re very warm people, very good-hearted people. Like, everybody was nice. You know, you meet nice people, but a whole country of nice, genuine, warm-hearted people was unbelievable. These are diehard fans."

It is such a thrilling feel knowing your people are appreciated, despite the negatives we been getting

My hats off also to mr Sandro Paredes who took the pictures and followed Agent Zero all throughout his tour of the Metro.

Whats in A Name???

While a was busy glancing the ever nostalgic Roxas Boulevard on my way to work..... a thought hit me... literally..... a gust of wind came in and made the ID of driver hit me on the head.... saw his name,,, was it an epiphany??? I dont know, but in a way it hurts... what does it got to do with the blog I am writing........ NONE... just like the dramatic effect..... seriously before I was bothered by the silly ID, I was already thinking whats in a name... how come some names are famous... and why are some great endorsers....

I was already thinking about this years back... like in my case, I kinda regret my parents for giving me such a lame name... that is why I am using Jake..... it has more of the catchy feel, dont you think??

Lets take the case of Michael Jordan, the sheer mentioning of the name already gives you visions of greatness.... what if some signs of stupidity of his parents, they suddenly name him Gusting or Gorgonio.... it wont sound right... same with his last name.... Jordan..... what if his last name was different like ahhh , Bagonggahasa... Air Bagonggahasa would not sound right....... Its just some names are bound or assciated with greatness..... like Tiger Woods, Einstein, David Blaine... the recall and association factor is just great.....

Perhaps that is also the reason why some great people in the past and present changed their name.... here are some of the samples....:

Real Name Famous Name

1. Eric Weisz ( his name did a disappearing act) --- Harry Houdini
2. Samuel Langhorne Clemens( keeping it simple)---- Mark Twain
3. Cordozer Broadus (the is not going to shizzle my dizzle) ---Snoop Dogg
4. Thomas Mapother IV (who would fall crazy for such a name) ------ Tom Cruise
5. Demetria Guynes (Ashton must have been Punk'd) --- Demi Moore
6. Steveland Morris ( I guess his parents were also blind in choosing names) ---- Stevie Wonder
7. Jon Francis Bongiovi Jr. (surely he was living on prayer when growing up) ---- Jon Bon Jovi
8. Kenny Gorelick ( last name is not really romantic) ----- Kenny G.

And the list would definitely go on... but what I am saying here is that names does make a huge difference...

I also read on article years back that we Filipinos has a knack for word play in names... like we are found of using Baby as a name for a kid.. its cute when you are young but what if your 80 years old.. will be called Lola Baby???? Thats wrong...

or putting an H or extra consonant or vowel to make it cute... believe me.. its not cute, its on its way to crossing the irritating level.

So for those who are planning to name their kids real soon.. think about it, make sure your kid's name a a ring of famous into it.... But not to the point that you would name your kid, Lebron James Santos, or Chris Paul Soriano, or Baby James Yapati..... or Miley Cyrus Baguio ( two famous names, hahahaha)

Think first, so that no regrets later.....
