well i just, hmmmmmmmm, aaaaaaaah, hmmmmmmm, aaaaaaah, hmmmmmm bwahahahahahahaha, i just couldn't help but laugh.

why??? simply because, the moral of the tragedy/story is "patience is a virtue" my dear "patience is a virtue" my dear!

adios!
p.s. to sender of the message, don't be offended i know that you had that message forwaded to you. this is just my opinion!! peace.....

what's odd!

here's a short list of the things i found odd nowadays:

- the "I Manila" advertisement that has been popping-up in the Discovery Channel (yes virginia, i do watch that channel) - it should've been re-phrased as Haaaaaaay, Manila

- the blacked eye peas - "negative images always shown by the media" should sumarize all that i want to say

- UK advertisements to help kids fight obesity (read the full article here) - LOL, very creative, what if they broadcast it here (wawa si jollibee at si tito mcdonald's hehehe)

- the pinoy big brother craze - not another reality show, ughhh i'm sick of them

- the royal honeymoon of prince charles and princess camilla - oh well, anything about the UK's royal family is odd right??

- ate glo is still "La Presidenta" and proudly announcing the failures and stupid reports of the military and the PNP - tsk tsk tsk, un lang po!
and lastly,

- it's back to school, back to the torture.

adios!

The Migration (hasta la vista baby!!!)

i'm baaaaaaaaaack (so?) and Happy Eid Al-Fitr Al-Mubarak to the Muslim Ummah!

yes people, i've migrated (not phyically though, hopefully this will happen soon)!!! i changed the O/S of my laptop and i'm officially a member of the Ubuntu linux community, but it ain't "no more gates nor windows for Lid" - or windoze/winbricks as the linux community likes to call it - at least not yet, co'z i still need to figure out how to use linux to the fullest, but i have to admit i'm really impressed with Ubuntu, though i had to spend countless hours to update it and install new free and licensed programs (no pirated stuff here peeps), accordingly it's easy to upgrade, but in my case i had some difficulty since the admin/root password i inputted during the installation process didn't work when i tried to access the >Synaptic Package Manager and >Ubuntu Update Manager, so i had to resort to the tutorial provided in ubuntuguide.org and type/copy-paste those commands in the Terminal, nevertheless it was a worthwhile experience, i felt like i was some freaking hacker or one-heck-of-a programmer while typing those commands hehehe.

so to conclude this post, i'm happy to admit that now Lid is 85% free from windoze (15% will represent the time i would spend using windoze, for gaming that is) "the best things in life are free" truly apply to linux and its constantly growing community..

adios! it's 3 a.m. already...
