Discover the Joy of Life

Love

2010-01-05T19:13:00.000-08:00

The best part of being in love with someone is being convinced that that person will be with us forever. Most of us start relationship believing in the promise of love without end. Unfortunately, not all relationships end the way we want them to.

To some, love comes in a fleeting moment and goes just as fast. But getting over the feeling always seems to take a lifetime, because the only person who can heal the pain is usually the very same person who hurt us and made us cry.

Sometimes just as we are about to accept the failure of our relationship, that person comes back to us and unknowingly destroys our defenses. Suddenly, we find ourselves hooked on love again. And it hurts even more because we know that person doesn’t share the same feeling anymore.

Even if there is the urge to forget because it hurts, there would always be that compelling reason to hope for love to come back. It is like waiting for the sun to shine in the middle of a storm.

The love that brings us pain should be the same love that would heal our hearts. When you love so much that it begins to hurt, then you have to learn to let go to lessen your pain.

Love hurts, and sometimes it hurts like there is no tomorrow. But there still is and there will always be one. No matter how battered and stricken we have been, there will always be a tomorrow that will bring hope and love. But that tomorrow will never come unless we leave the past behind and live today as we should.

Let the pain remain for a while and let the tears fall as they please. Then after all that, move on and find your place in this world where you will feel that everything is going to be all right.”

COMMITMENT

2009-12-03T01:27:00.001-08:00

The most important, most critical component in successful loving is commitment. Not love. It’s easy to love without commitment. People do it all the time—easy to love, to give of oneself for a while. But commitment implies bonding in such a way that one promises to keep the fires of love burning indefinitely.

In the countless counseling sessions I have had with troubled couples over the years, there has always been the problem of a failing commitment on the part of at least one of the partners. Unless there is the raising of the level of commitment, the relationship is doomed. It’s finished. Sooner or later the stresses will take their toll and the relationship will begin to fall apart. On the other hand, look carefully at couples who are still very much in love after 20, 25 years. Their commitment to each other cannot be shaken. Neither can their love.

It also means shutting one’s heart to the possibility of loving another who might even be more attractive, even more lovable. Not easy. This is why solid commitments are not at all as common as we are led to believe. In fact, more often than not, I think that the commitment two lovers make are not equal. What I mean is that the commitment of one might be a whole lot more or a whole lot less than the partner’s.

We see it all the time. One loves more than the other, is more committed than the other. It is false to believe that two lovers love each other to the same degree. We have often seen lopsided love relationships where one partner is giving so much more to the relationship than the other.
But writers and poets seem to always indicate that love isn’t just a two-way street, but an equal two-way street.

That hardly ever happens. It is impossible to determine exactly how much a man loves a woman or how much a woman cares for a man. Love cannot be measured and that can be a huge problem. You can love someone and tell him “I love you” and you’re telling the truth. But how much do you love him? Enough to let him court you? Enough to marry him? Enough to die for him?
The greatest test of true love is commitment. And the greatest indicator of deep love is deep commitment. There can be no doubting this.

I have heard people say all the right words, make all the right moves and pledge undying love, only to walk away weeks or months later.

Were they in love? Sure they were. But not enough to allow them to hold strong in their love. Not enough to keep a commitment regardless of the pain.

A lover gets this sinking feeling when there is a sense that one is more committed than the other. When one is giving a lot more than one is receiving, when one’s love is a lot more solid than the creaky love of the partner.

When a couple believes strongly that their commitment to each other is rock solid, there is a deep sense of security, a feeling that it’s okay to give all because the gift of yourself is safe in the hands of the beloved. If, however, there is doubt or, even worse, the conviction that one is engaged in one-way giving, in a one-way commitment that is lopsided, then there is a tendency to pull back and not give as much. And when that happens, love begins to fade.

Facts about November

2009-10-30T02:01:00.000-07:00

Traditions including All Saints Day and All Souls Day

The name comes from the Roman word 'novem' meaning nine, because it was the ninth month in their Roman calendar.

Few people find November pleasant. The Anglo-Saxons called November 'Wind monath', because it was the time when the cold winds began to blow. They also called it 'Blod monath', because it was the time when carnival charactercattle were slaughtered for winter food. The poet T.S. Elliot called it 'Sombre November'. Sir Walter Scott, in his long poem Marmion, wrote in 1808:

November's sky is chill and drear,

November's leaf is red and sear (withered)'

The first week of November has always been a time of festivals and celebrations marking the end of the harvest and beginning of Winter

All Saints' Day - 1 November

In the year 835 AD the Roman Catholic Church made 1st November a church holiday to honour all the saints. This feast day is called All Saints' Day.

All Hallows

All Saints' Day used to be known as All Hallows (Hallow being an old word meaning Saint or Holy Person). The feast day actually started the previous evening, the Eve of All Hallows or Hallowe'en.

Christians remember all the saints

On Saints' Day, Christians remember all 'men of good will' (saints), great ones and forgotten ones, who have died through the ages.

Saints are men and women from all ages and all walks of life, who were outstanding Christians. Some - the martyrs - died for their faith. All of them are honoured by the church.

Hallowtide

All Saints' Day, together with All Souls' Day are know collectively as Hallowtide.

God's Conversation With Eve

2009-10-23T20:25:00.000-07:00

One day in the Garden of Eden, Eve calls out to God, "Lord, I have a problem!"

"What's the problem, Eve?"

"Lord, I know you've created me and have provided this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals, and that hilarious comedy snake, but I'm just not happy."

"Why is that, Eve?", comes the reply from above.

"Lord, I am lonely. And I'm sick to death of apples."

"Well, Eve, in that case I have a solution. I shall create a man for you."

"What's a 'man,' Lord?"

"This man will be a flawed creature, with aggressive tendencies, an enormous ego and an inability to empathize or listen to you properly. All in all he'll give you a hard time. But he'll be bigger and faster and more muscular than you, he'll be really good at fighting and kicking a ball about and hunting fleet-footed ruminants, and not altogether bad in the sack."

"Sounds great," says Eve, with an ironically raised eyebrow.

"Yeah, well. He's better than a poke in the eye with a burnt stick. But you can have him on one condition."

"What's that, Lord?"

"You'll have to let him believe that I made him first."

Children's Prayers

2009-09-28T18:19:00.000-07:00

    A mother was teaching her 3-year-old the Lord's prayer. For several evenings at bedtime she repeated it after her mother. One night she said she was ready to solo. The mother listened with pride as she carefully enunciated each word, right up to the end of the prayer. "Lead us not into temptation," she prayed, "but deliver us some e-mail, Amen."

    A woman invited some people over for dinner. At the table she turned to her six-year-old daughter and said, "Would you like to say the blessing?" The girl replied, "I wouldn't know what to say." "Just say what you heard Mommy say," the mother answered. The daughter bowed her head and said, "Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?

    A 5 year old boy was sitting down to eat when his mother asked him to pray for his meal. He replied, "Mom we don't have to. We prayed over this last night." His mother had prepared leftovers from the day before.

     A 4-year-old boy who was asked to return thanks before Christmas dinner. The family members bowed their heads in expectation. He began his prayer, thanking God for all his friends, naming them one by one. Then he thanked God for Mommy, Daddy, brother, sister, Grandma, Grandpa, and all his aunts and uncles. Then he began to thank God for the food. He gave thanks for the turkey, the dressing, the fruit salad, the cranberry sauce, the pies, the cakes, even the Cool Whip. Then he paused, and everyone waited--and waited. After a long silence, the young fellow looked up at his mother and asked, "If I thank God for the broccoli, won't he know that I'm lying?"

    A daddy was listening to his child say his prayer "Dear Harold," At this, dad interrupted and said, "Wait a minute, "How come you called God, Harold? The little boy looked up and said, "That's what they call Him in church. You know the prayer we say, "Our Father, who art in Heaven, Harold be Thy name."

    One night Mike's parents overheard this prayer. "Now I lay me down to rest, and hope to pass tomorrow's test, if I should die before I wake, that's one less test I have to take."

    A five-year-old said grace at family dinner one night. "Dear God, thank you for these pancakes." When he concluded, his parents asked him why he thanked God for pancakes when they were having chicken. He smiled and said, "I thought I'd see if He was paying attention tonight."

    A little boy's prayer: "Dear God, please take care of my daddy and my mommy and my sister and my brother and my doggy and me. Oh, please take care of yourself, God. If anything happens to you, we're gonna be in a big mess."

    Johnny had been misbehaving and was sent to his room. After a while he emerged and informed his mother that he had thought it over and then said a prayer. "Fine," said the pleased mother. "If you ask God to help you not misbehave, He will help you." "Oh, I didn't ask Him to help me not misbehave," said Johnny. I asked Him to help you put up with me."

    A little boy was overheard praying: "Lord, if You can't make me a better boy, don't worry about it. I'm having a real good time like I am!"

    A little boy was saying his bedtime prayers with his mother: "Lord, bless Mommy and Daddy, and God, GIVE ME A NEW BICYCLE!!!" Mom: "God's not deaf, son." Boy: "I know, Mom, but Grandma's in the next room, and she's hard of hearing!

    Little Johnny was softly saying his night prayers kneeling down, and his mother was beside him. "Say your prayers louder, darling, I can't hear you," Said Little Johnny's mother. "But I'm not talking to you" was the instant reply.

    One Sunday in a Midwest city a young child was "acting up" during the morning worship hour. The parents did their best to maintain some sense of order in the pew but were losing the battle. Finally the father picked the little fellow up and walked sternly up the aisle on his way out. Just before reaching the safety of the foyer the little one called loudly to the congregation, "Pray for me! Pray for me!"

    And this particular four-year-old prayed: "And forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."

Child's Definition of LOVE.

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?" The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:

"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love." Rebecca - age 8

When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth." Billy - age 4

"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other." Karl - age 5

"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs." Chrissy - age 6

"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired." Terri - age 4

Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK." Danny - age 7

"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss" Emily - age 8

"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen," Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)

"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate," Nikka - age 6

"There are two kinds of love. Our love. God's love. But God makes both kinds of them." Jenny - age 8

"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday." Noelle - age 7

"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well." Tommy - age 6

"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore," Cindy - age 8

"My mommy loves me more than anybody. You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night." Clare - age 6

"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken." Elaine -age 5

"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford." Chris - age 7

"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day." Mary Ann - age 4

"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones." Lauren - age 4

"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you." Karen - age 7

"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross." Mark - age 6

"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget," Jessica - age 8

Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child. The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked him what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, "Nothing, I just helped him cry."

The Top Ten Myths of Divorce

2009-09-22T17:56:00.000-07:00

Discussion of the most common misinformation about divorce
David Popenoe

1. Because people learn from their bad experiences, second marriages tend to be more successful than first marriages.

Although many people who divorce have successful subsequent marriages, the divorce rate of remarriages is in fact higher than that of first marriages.

2. Living together before marriage is a good way to reduce the chances of eventually divorcing.

Many studies have found that those who live together before marriage have a considerably higher chance of eventually divorcing. The reasons for this are not well understood. In part, the type of people who are willing to cohabit may also be those who are more willing to divorce. There is some evidence that the act of cohabitation itself generates attitudes in people that are more conducive to divorce, for example the attitude that relationships are temporary and easily can be ended.

3. Divorce may cause problems for many of the children who are affected by it, but by and large these problems are not long lasting and the children recover relatively quickly.

Divorce increases the risk of interpersonal problems in children. There is evidence, both from small qualitative studies and from large-scale, long-term empirical studies, that many of these problems are long lasting. In fact, they may even become worse in adulthood.

4. Having a child together will help a couple to improve their marital satisfaction and prevent a divorce.

Many studies have shown that the most stressful time in a marriage is after the first child is born. Couples who have a child together have a slightly decreased risk of divorce compared to couples without children, but the decreased risk is far less than it used to be when parents with marital problems were more likely to stay together “for the sake of the children.”

5. Following divorce, the woman’s standard of living plummets by seventy three percent while that of the man’s improves by forty two percent.

This dramatic inequity, one of the most widely publicized statistics from the social sciences, was later found to be based on a faulty calculation. A reanalysis of the data determined that the woman’s loss was twenty seven percent while the man’s gain was ten percent. Irrespective of the magnitude of the differences, the gender gap is real and seems not to have narrowed much in recent decades.

6. When parents don’t get along, children are better off if their parents divorce than if they stay together.

A recent large-scale, long-term study suggests otherwise. While it found that parents’ marital unhappiness and discord have a broad negative impact on virtually every dimension of their children’s well-being, so does the fact of going through a divorce. In examining the negative impacts on children more closely, the study discovered that it was only the children in very high conflict homes who benefited from the conflict removal that divorce may bring. In lower-conflict marriages that end in divorce—and the study found that perhaps as many as two thirds of the divorces were of this type—the situation of the children was made much worse following a divorce. Based on the findings of this study, therefore, except in the minority of high-conflict marriages it is better for the children if their parents stay together and work out their problems than if they divorce.

7. Because they are more cautious in entering marital relationships and also have a strong determination to avoid the possibility of divorce, children who grow up in a home broken by divorce tend to have as much success in their own marriages as those from intact homes.

Marriages of the children of divorce actually have a much higher rate of divorce than the marriages of children from intact families. A major reason for this, according to a recent study, is that children learn about marital commitment or permanence by observing their parents. In the children of divorce, the sense of commitment to a lifelong marriage has been undermined.

8. Following divorce, the children involved are better off in stepfamilies than in single-parent families.

The evidence suggests that stepfamilies are no improvement over single-parent families, even though typically income levels are higher and there is a father figure in the home. Stepfamilies tend to have their own set of problems, including interpersonal conflicts with new parent figures and a very high risk of family breakup.

9. Being very unhappy at certain points in a marriage is a good sign that the marriage will eventually end in divorce.

All marriages have their ups and downs. Recent research using a large national sample found that eighty six percent of people who were unhappily married in the late 1980s, and stayed with the marriage, indicated when interviewed five years later that they were happier. Indeed, three fifths of the formerly unhappily married couples rated their marriages as either “very happy” or “quite happy.”

10. It is usually men who initiate divorce proceedings

Two-thirds of all divorces are initiated by women. One recent study found that many of the reasons for this have to do with the nature of our divorce laws. For example, in most states women have a good chance of receiving custody of their children. Because women more strongly want to keep their children with them, in states where there is a presumption of shared custody with the husband the percentage of women who initiate divorces is much lower. Also, the higher rate of women initiators is probably due to the fact that men are more likely to be "badly behaved." Husbands, for example, are more likely than wives to have problems with drinking, drug abuse, and infidelity.

Eid Al-Fitr

2009-09-20T17:56:00.000-07:00

'Id Al-Fitr or Eid al-Fitr (Arabic for "Festival of the Breaking of the Fast") is one of Islam's two major festivals. It marks the end of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting, and is celebrated during the first three days of the month of Shawwal.

The festival "is distinguished by the performance of communal prayer (salat) at daybreak on its first day. It is a time of official receptions and private visits, when friends greet one another, presents are given, new clothes are worn, and the graves of relatives are visited." The traditional greeting for 'Id Al-Fitr is "'Id Mabarak" ("May God make it a blessed feast").

Manners for Moving Up

(by: Julie Yap Daza)

Why manners?
Along the way as we grow and climb the ladder of success, from high school to college, from graduation to a first job, from single and carefree, to head or heart of the family, we nned friends who add to the pleasure of every social occasion.

But we also run into strangers. Are they nice people? Should we be ncie to them? who should take the first step?

Who needs manners?
Anyone who wants to win friends and be a better friend. Everyone realizes life can be more pleasant and enjoyable if everyone else followed the rules. All of us can be more pleasant and enjoyable if everyone else followed the rules. All of us place a premium on being considerate and thoughtful of others.

You don't need manners if you are:

   1. a bum
   2. a hermit
   3. shipwrecked and all alone on an island
   4. a convict on death row
   5. an inmate in a mental institution
   6. living alone and never coming out of your house
   7. being consistent with your lifetime habits of not ever brushing your teeth, taking a bath, and changing clothes
   8. a beggar
   9. still in your mother's womb

Hello! Hello!

Save Lives, Know How, Where and When to Cross the
Street.

The Mall is All

Ladies an Gentlemen!

Dress Up, Dress Down, Dress Right!

Basic Good Grooming for Men

First Date at the Disco

TABLE MATTERS!

Hello! Hello!

Use the telephone only when you have to....whether it's your own telephone,your office phone, or someone else's phone, but especially when it's not your phone.

Whether you are calling or being called, keep the conversation short. It is good manners to keep the telephone free for others to use.

When you have dialed a wrong number, say 'Sorry.' It sounds almost as good as 'Hello.'

On the telephone, your voice is you. Do not sound indifferent, irritated, or intimidating. If the call is not for you, offer to take a message.

Save Lives. Know How, Where and When to Cross the Street.

Use the pedestrian lane. It is usually marked w/ white stripes.
When there is ni pedestrian lane, cross from corner to corner.

MOTORISTS MUST RESPECT PEDESTRIANS.

They come to a full stop as soon as a pedestrian puts his/her foot on the pedestrian lane. When approaching an intersection, motorists slow down and stop for the sake of pedestrians crossing or about to cross. BUT PEDESTRIANS MUST RESPECT THEIR OWN VULNERABILITY.

Don't Court Danger. Don't be a jaywalker. A jaywalker darts between cars, takes short cuts and risks his own life and those of others.

WINDOW SHOPPING is a wonderful pastime. However, as you browse from window to window, be aware that other people on the sidewalk do not have the kind of time that you have.
LET THEM PASS. Be mindful of what you are doing and where you are going so they don't bump into you or you into them.

DON'T BLOW YOUR HORN UNNECESSARILY, and don't blow your horn when you
know it's useless to do so.

The Mall is ALL

The mall is all the church (or temple), park, and marketplace used to be. This is where everyone goes to do everything - shop, eat, browse, people-watch, kill time, meet friends, play video games,
keep a rendezvous.

YOU CANNOT AVOID PEOPLE IN A MALL. This is where space, because it is so publicly shared, is important to each and every private individual. You don't want others intruding into your space, any more than they want you in theirs. In short, let's all have some mall manners.

Don't hold up the queue.
DOn't crowd; it's crowded enough as it is.
DOn't be rowdy if you're a group.
Don't be a bully in the parking lot.
If you're waiting for the elevator, let the people inside get out first before you rush in.

In the elevator, if you have to talk, keep voices low. Better still, wait to get off before you begin your conversation.

Make way for others in the corridors, hallways, escalators, stairs.

Don't obstruct traffic. Don't sit on the stairs. Don't block exits and entrances.

Throw litter int he trash can. Use the toilet as if it were your own.

RESPECT THE RIGHT OF OTHERS TO ENJOY THEMSELVES AND HAVE
A GOOD TIME.

Ladies and Gentlemen!

Introductions are a killer if you depend on complicated, old-fashioned rules of who to introduce to whom. The most simple rule to remember is THE WOMAN'S NAME IS MENTIONED FIRST.

For example: "Lydia, I'd like you to meet David." Or, "Lydia, this is David." Once you know this rule by heart, it will be easy for you to remember that the name of the older and more important person is mentioned first.

"Sister Agnes, this is my cousin Bobby." And, "Your Excellency, may i present to you my wife, Jane."

A gentleman stands up to meet a lady, whether she is older or younger.
A lady does not have to stand up to be introduced to a man unless he is older or enjoys a higher rank. She does not have to stand up for a younger person or someone her age.
A gentleman waits for a lady to offer her hand for a handshake.

A woman wants to be treated like a lady even if she is an advocate of women's lib, women's rights, and equality of the sexes. Deep down in her heart, she still wants a man to open the door for her, pull a chair for her, pay for dinner.

A man who treats her like a lady has everything to gain, especially a good reputation.

Ladies first, as they always say. the lady is first to walk through an open door, to sit, to order a drink or food int he restaurant.

There is one exception tot his rule. She does not precede the gentleman when they are going down the stairs or an escalator. The man goes ahead. Once they arrived at the landing, the gentleman gently takes her by the elbow and guides her to where they have to go.

On the sidewalk, the gentleman walks on the side near the street. In the theater, the lady, if she is escorted by a gentleman, does not take an aisle seat. That's for her escort.

WHEN THEY ARE CROSSING THE STREET, THE GENTLEMAN GOES TO THE SIDE WHERE THE CARS ARE COMING FROM.

TABOO

Gentleman and ladies don't give each other intimate gifts of a personal nature unless they are lovers, engaged to be married, or married to each other.

DON'T GIVE UNDERWEAR, expensive jewelry, anything that could be misconducted. For example, why give him deodorant unless you're trying to say he has B.O. (body odor)?

When a man and woman are out on a date in a restaurant, she does not tell the waiter her order. She tells it to her escort, who will tell the waiter. The gentleman saves the day by asking her before she has a chance to collar the waiter. What would you like to have? the gentleman asks the lady.

Lesson: Lady, wait for your date to ask. If the waiter has not been properly trained and he asks you instead of him, pretend you're still trying to make up your mind. Read the menu or turn to your date and give him the cue, "SHOULD WE GO FOR THE BLUE MARLIN OR THE LOBSTER
THERMIDOR?"

WHO PAYS???

It's an Oriental tradition that the gentleman pays. But the lady should understand and offer to pay if:

he is younger
he is earning less
it's a Dutch treat and everybody pays for his and her own food and drinks.

Q & A

Q. Should a woman invite a man to have luch or dinner with her?

A. Of course. This is the 90's, remember?

Q. How should she go about it?

A. Naturally, simply and sincerely. She should state her intention clearly, taking care not to come on too strong and eager. A professional reason is one of the least complicated ways to invite a man. For example, to go over the terms of her insurance policy with the manager or CEO who had convinced her to buy a policy in the first place; to discuss securities and investments with her banker; to acquire background information on a sensitive issue from a news source if she is a journalist.

Q. Who should pay?

A. The one who did the inviting. Nonetheless, most men won't let the women
pay. But if he lets you pay for his lunch, don't blame him.

DRESS UP, DRESS DOWN, DRESS RIGHT

IT IS BETTER TO UNDERDRESS THAN TO OVERDRESS. WHY?...

Because you do not call attention by sticking out like a sore thumb. By being under dressed, you can blend into the woodwork and hope that there are other who are similarly under dressed.

TO DRESS DOWN DOES NOT MEAN BEING SHABBY.
The truly stylish who dress down occasionally have learned a few basic rules by heart.

CLOTHES ARE IMMACULATELY CLEAN AND CLEANLY, SIMPLY CUT.

Simple is not plain or boring. Underplay colors by using noncolors - black, white, beige, tan, navy.
Use little or no jewelry.

NIGHTIME DRESSING, when the sun has gone down and people are in a playful, after-work mood, allows men and womenleeway in the choice of CLOTHING, STYLES, COLORS, ACCESSORIES, JEWELRY.

When daylight has faded and evening shadows move among the light cast by moon and stars, candles, black, are appropriate. So is a bit more daring ind ressing, makeup or grooming, and jewelry.

NIGHT IS THE TIME FOR PARTIES, the theater, a romantic dinner set in the midst of crystal and silver. This is the time to break the rules for dressing by day.

By day wear cotton or linen. By night, wear silk or satin.
By day wear simple gold jewelry, pearls, a classic watch.
By night, have fun and go funky, let your hair down. Go with the glow of colored stones if that is your caprice.
Daytime, alight perfume or cologne is preferable to a musky, seductive scent.
By day, wear an easy hairstyle, easy to comb.
Wear all the black you want at night. Elsa
Klensch of CNN says wear black not to play but to cut a dramatic figure.

Standing Before the Mirror

Sexy clothes are for sexy people to be worn to sexy places.
You can wear black shoes with almosy aything but you can't wear white shoes with black stockings or socks.
If you have to wear shoes, they must be clean and shined, in good condition for walking. Do not stand out in them because they'r dirty, grimy, and ready to fall apart. Ugly shoes are a sign of lack of manners and self-esteem.

BASIC GOOD GROOMING FOR MEN

Clip nose hairs!
Clip ear hairs.
Snip away (do not yank) loose threads in your suits, shirts, pants.
Polish shoes that need to be polished, wash shoes that need to be washed. Brush suede - not wax!
Keep your fingernails short and clean. Avoid that pink stuff they spread on parlor, it only makes you look like a vain, dirty old man.
Cut your toenails, straight across.
If you insist onw earing an earring, choose something small and subtle. Don't go for the Pirate of the seven Seas look by wearing those awful gold hoops you could put a circus animal through.
Always check the limbs coming out of your suit.
Keep everything on your chest (TIE, JEWELRY, SHIRT) Free of stains and as wrinkle free as possible.
Short wash-and-wear hair is fine and can definitely be SEXY. If you've got long hair, tie it neatly into a no-nonsense ponyail at the back. If it's not long enough, gel back smoothly and show your ears.
Can we allg et together and pledge a total ban on long, heavy gold chains proudly displayed through an open-till-the-belly-button shirt?
Shopping for a cologne? Bring your girlfriend, wife or special someone along. After all, she'll be smelling you (and hopefully only you) the most. If she likes it and you like it, the salesgirl can say "SOLD!"

AND FOR THE LADIES...

DO something about your armpit hair! Shaving, they say, leaves armpits dark while plucking may cause infection. Hair remover doesn't get it all out and waxing is as painful as ripping your skin off. So which method do you prefer? ......CHOOSE AND ACT!
If you're one to shave your legs, please spare your boyfriend or husband the - yuck! - agony of brushing unprotected parts of his body against something that feels like a cheese grater. Not shaving regularly is about as attractive as braiding you nose hair.
NEVER remove your shoes in public, much less rub your toes and ankles together while you're at it. If you think your toes are pretty enough to be edible, admire them in the privacy of your home.
Water-proof makeup in a tropical climate prevents smudging caused by sweat.
Keep your hair neat and tidy, and please, keep it out of other people's faces but don't brush it in public.
Fragrance is whatever form of cologne, eau de toilette, lotion, perfume should be subtle and mysterious. Not overwhelming and sneeze-inducing.

No, NO, NO, GUYS!!

Men dress more simply than women, which does not mean that they have an easier time remembering a few basic rules, starting with the NO-NO's:

A short-sleeved shirt or T-shirt under a blazer or coat that's part of a suit. NO!
What goes under a jacket? a shirt with long sleeves, in white or a pale color, plain or in the thinnest stripes. YES!
Loud colors on pants. NO! unless worn by clowns, comedians and entertainers following a script. Loud colors are perfectly all right for beachwear, casual tops, and other leisure wear.
Heavy jewelry encrusted with stones. NO!
Sockless in leather and patent shoes. NO! if you must go sans socks, wear sandals.
Printed shirts in loud colors and in silk (synthetic or otherwise). NO! except at night.
Jens, shorts, rubber shoes, sneakers, sleeveless shirts, collarless shirts for going to a party. NO!
You will be breaking the dess code and your host's/hostess' heart.
Necktie paired with a patterned or printed shirt. NO!
Necktie paired with a crumpled shirt. NO!
Necktie with shortsleeve shirt. NO!
Necktie with jeans and casual slacks. NO!

Stay Sexy, Guys!

Jeans are sexy with shirt tucked in if you have a tight butt to show.

Keep two neckties, one for a power lunch, one for dating.

The best colors for socks, and you need only two colors, are black (for your black shoes) and

white (for rubber shoes, tennis shoes, etc..).

Socks must stay high enough above the ankles to cover your legs when you cross them.

White handkerchiefs are better than colored ones.

Embroidered monograms were not designed to be conspicuous.

Wear dark suits at night, for formal occasions, and in winter.

If you can have only one blazer, have it in a navy blue.

LIGHT UP, LIGHTEN UP

All smokers should be courteus and respect the rights of all nonsmokers.

Minors should not smoke. No one should see them tobacco products.

Smokers should respectt the fact that some nonsmokers simply do not want to be near secondhand smoke.

Smokers can ask before they light up, "May I?" It's as simple
as that.

Nonsmokers can show smokers that they recognize that there's a place for them to enjoy a cigarette in a seperate, designated smoking area.

First Date at the Disco

If you're nervous, so is she. So are her parents.

Put everyone, including yourself, at ease by not trying to be someone you're not.

It helps if you're not properly attired and groomed. If you're going to a disco, the dress code in most discos and dance clubs is semi-formal, though this term is used loosely. Another way to describe it is casual chic.

GUYS. Wear a shirt with a collar, whether it's short or long-sleeved. Slacks are better than jeans.

No-no's include sneakers, rubber shoes, and sandals. The way to go is comfortable dress shoes. Leave the baseball cap in the baseball field, please.

GIRLS. It's simpler to say what not to wear. No rubber shoes, no shorts, no T-shirts. Do wear whatever is in style, as long as you can get away with it, in it, anything from the little black dress to jeans and a tank top. Flat shoes or pumps with ine-inch heels are okay for dancing. Unless you're a real expert, stilettos could hurt you, and not only your feet.

Your secret weapon: Use a good deodorant or anti-perspirant. But avoid strong perfumes.

You'll probably see a lot of people you know.

Don't leave your date alone when you socialize.

Introduce him/her to them, but don't spend more time with them than your date.

On the dance floor, don't take upt oo much room. If you don't dance too well, keep your steps simple.

If you're an expert, don't be too eager to show off. Try not to keep looking on other people.

While dancing, restrain the urge to strike up conversation. This isn't the time to share your thoughts about life.

Avoid marathon dancing to he point of exhaustion,or getting your clothes soaked in sweat while you try to catch your breathe.

After two or three numbers, you should be ready to take a break. Don't be embarassed to say you're tired.

A disco is a perfect place for a first date because conversation is light. When you can't think of anything more to say, you can always get back on the dance floor!

TABLE MATTERS!

A table setting includes plates, glasses, spoons, forks and knives, napkins.DO NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY ALL THAT DISPLAY OF CHINA, silver and crystal. Keep in mind that your host or the caterer has arranged the tableware according to the food that will be served. As each course arrives on the table, use the utensils in order of their position - start witht he outermost ones, from left side and right side, moving in toward the plate.

No matter how complicated the setting may appear at first glance, know that there won't be more than four pieces of any group at any one time - no more than four glasses, no more than four knives - besides which, as the dinner progresses, the waiter will be taking away used utensils, course after course.

On the right, knives are placed witht he blade facing the plate. The dessert fork on top of the plate has its handle pointing left because the fork is held with the left hand. The dessert spoon, also on top of
the plate, has its handle pointing right because the spoon is held with the right hand.

Napkin is found on the left or at the center of the big plate.

Glasses on the right. Knives and spoon on the right. Forks on the left Dessert fork and spoon above dinner plate. Use outermost utensils first, going in toward plate.

Some DO's and DON'Ts

Pick up the napkin with your left hand when you see your host doing so. Unfold and place it gently on your lap If you find that one of your utensils is for some reason, not well-polished or has some leftover food particle clinging to it, simply ask your waiter to replace it instead of trying to wipe it clean with your napkin.

If you don't know what you're eating, don't be too shy to ask. You are not expected to know everything.

If you don't like what you are eating, don't be too shy to spit it out but do it inconspicuously

As much as possible, keep your plate neat and tidy and try not to leave food on your plate.

Do not eat from your neighbor's plate. If you want to try his food, ask for a small piece and put it on your plate for a spare one.

Some food items are eaten with your fingers, for which you will be given a finger bowl: crabs, steamed shrimps with shell on, artichokes (with leaves), oysters, mussels, frog's leg, asparagus
(with branches), quail, pigeon, spareribs, fried chciken.

Dip your fingertips in the finger bowls, but it is still best to simply excuse yourself and wash your hands in the restroom.

DO NOT BURP! If you just did, say "Excuse me."

DO NOT FART! Excuse yourself from the table and do it elsewhere!

Excuse yourself if you have to leave the table.

Ask permission before you smoke!

Although it is permissible these days to use a toothpick, cover your mouth with your hand when you do. Never pick your teeth with your fingers in public. Go to the restroom to do this privately.

Do no floss in public!

God Whispers from Truly Rich Club

Many of your choices aren’t permanent choices. For these choices, pick growth over security. Growth necessitates chaos — at least for a while. If you want growth, be comfortable with chaos.

Here’s a fact: Your blessings outnumber your problems. Your blessings are an ocean. Your problems are a few drops of rain that fall on that ocean. So what will you focus on?

Magnify me and you make your problems small. The bigger I become in your eyes, the smaller your problems become.

Little children are afraid of darkness because they can’t see what’s next. Many adults are still afraid of life because they can’t see what will happen next. For them, life is so uncertain. Not you, You know me.

You know what I’ll do for you. You see your fantastic future. Are you experiencing scarcity? Good. Because scarcity has the power to give a very special gift. Scarcity can give you a great hunger for abundance. This hunger will be your fire in the belly. Some of the wealthiest people in the world have huge hunger because they went through great scarcity.

Some wealthy people, because they love their kids, take away from them the experience of scarcity. They give them instant wealth without training them in hard work. But when scarcity is taken away, they also take away their hunger for success. Thus, many kids squander the wealth of their parents. Just telling you again how important scarcity is in your life.

Why Americans Should Never Be Allowed to Travel

2009-08-19T01:55:00.000-07:00

The following are actual stories provided by travel agents:

I had someone ask for an aisle seats so that his or her hair wouldn't get messed up by being near the window.

A client called in inquiring about a package to Hawaii. After going over all the cost info, she asked, "Would it be cheaper to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii?"

I got a call from a woman who wanted to go to Capetown. I started to explain the length of the flight and the passport information when she interrupted me with "I'm not trying to make you look stupid, but Capetown is in Massachusetts. "Without trying to make her look like the stupid one, I calmly explained, "Capecod is in Massachusetts, Capetown is in Africa." Her response ... click.

A man called, furious about a Florida package we did. I asked what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando. He said he was expecting an ocean-view room. I tried to explain that is not possible, since Orlando is in the middle of the state. He replied, "Don't lie to me. I looked on the map and Florida is a very thin state."

I got a call from a man who asked, "Is it possible to see England from Canada?" I said, "No." He said "But they look so close on the map."

Another man called and asked if he could rent a car in Dallas. When I pulled up the reservation, I noticed he had a 1-hour lay over in Dallas. When I asked him why he wanted to rent a car, he said, "I heard Dallas was a big airport, and I need a car to drive between the gates to save time."

A nice lady just called. She needed to know how it was possible that her flight from Detroit left at 8:20am and got into Chicago at 8:33am. I tried to explain that Michigan was an hour ahead of llinois, but she could not understand the concept of time zones. Finally I told her the plane went very fast, and she bought that!

A woman called and asked, "Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know who's luggage belongs to who?" I said, "No, why do you ask?" She replied, "Well, when I checked in with the airline, they put a tag on my luggage that said FAT, and I'm overweight, is there any connection?" After putting her on hold for a minute while I "looked into it" (I was actually laughing) I came back and explained the city code for Fresno is FAT, and that the airline was just putting a destination tag on her luggage.

I just got off the phone with a man who asked, "How do I know which plane to get on?" I asked him what exactly he meant, which he replied, "I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these darn planes have numbers on them."

A woman called and said, "I need to fly to Pepsi-cola on one of those computer planes." I asked if she meant to fly to Pensacola on a commuter plane. She said, "Yeah, whatever."

A businessman called and had a question about the documents he needed in order to fly to China. After a lengthy discussion about passports, I reminded him he needed a visa. "Oh no I don't, I've been to China many times and never had to have one of those." I double checked and sure enough, his stay required a visa. When I told him this he said, "Look, I've been to China four times and every time they have accepted my American Express."

A woman called to make reservations,
"I want to go from Chicago to Hippopotamus, New York" The agent was at a loss for words. Finally, the agent: "Are you sure that's the name of the town?" "Yes, what flights do you have?" replied the customer. After some searching, the agent came back with, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I've looked up every airport code in the country and can't find a Hippopotamus anywhere." The customer retorted, "Oh don't be silly. Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!" The agent scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, "You don't mean Buffalo, do you?" "That's it! I knew it was a big animal!"

6. " It’s just not working out."

7. " I love you, but I’m not in love with you. "

8. " We want different things."

9. " I still love you. "

Daily God Whispers from Truly Rich Club

2009-08-13T19:42:00.000-07:00

I'd like to share the Daily God Whispers i Receive via email from Truly Rich Club of Bo Sanchez, they're very inspirational I'll be selfish if i will not share them, since i am a member of his truly rich club i also receive a weekly wealth strategies but I'm not sure if it is legal to re-publish them, i still have to ask permission to share them in my blog. I'll be posting these God Whispers every Friday because I can't do it everyday.

1. Imagine people who always hurt you or offend you. Most of them grew up traumatized in their childhood. Many were not loved. Some were abandoned. Some were hurt deeply. Don’t curse them. They’ve received enough wounds already.

2. Your happiness doesn’t depend on external circumstances. Your happiness depends on your internal interpretation of these external circumstances. Interpret well, And get wildly happy.

3. Be happy today. It’s really a choice you have to make. Don’t wait to be happy. Plan your happiness. Make it happen more often. You rule!

4. Have fun. Enjoy my blessings. Life is short. In a blink of an eye, you’ll be beside me in Heaven. So while you’re on planet Earth, enjoy my creation.

5. Blessings will fit the container you’ve prepared for them. If your container is small, your blessings will be small too. If your container is big, your blessings will be big as well.

6. It’s not how you start, but how you end. So start small. Fumble and fall and fail at the beginning. That’s how all legendary champions began.

1. Consciousness of an honest purpose in life.
2. Adjust estimate of one's self and everyone else. in other words, he knows himself, he sees himself, and God sees him.
3. Frequent self-examinations. a successful person takes time to evaluate himself.
4. Steady obedience to what one knows to be right.

Broken Heart Quotes That Can Cure A Broken Heart

2009-07-21T20:39:00.000-07:00

There is nothing worse than a broken heart it makes you feel like your whole world has been turned upside down and inside out. You can’t eat, you can’t sleep, you just can’t function. All you can do is think about the love and relationship that you have lost. Many people say that a broken heart cannot be healed, even with time but the truth is that if you forget and move on then your heart will too.

The way that you are feeling now, though, forgetting will be the furthest thing from your mind. But until you forget the pain and suffering will remain.
Here are some favourite broken heart quotes of mine and explanations based on how they can mend your broken heart.

"Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional."
Yes you will feel pain when a relationship has ended but you do not have to suffer. There are many ways in which you can forgive and forget and ultimately mend your broken heart.

"If you can’t save the relationship, at least save your pride."
Don’t beg or harass your ex as this will make the situation even worse. It will also make you look needy and without self respect or pride. Instead remove yourself, if possible from any situations with your ex
until you have had a chance to cool off.

"Letting go of someone dear to you is hard, but holding on to someone who doesn’t even
feel the same is much harder. Giving up doesn’t mean you are weak! It only means that you are strong enough to let go!"
During this cooling off period you should try and sort out your feelings and get rid of your anger. You need to accept that the relationship is over and start making changes to your life.

"You have to forgive to forget, and forget, to feel again."
If you just keep going over the past and are unable to think of the future then you will never be able to move on. You need to forgive any differences that you had between you and start to forget. Yes, this
will be difficult if you have shared many happy memories. But if you have split up there are also going to be not so good memories that led to you splitting up. Instead of wishing for the past focus on these
reasons and take them as advice to make yourself a better person and turn your life around.

"Wherever you are, be there totally. If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or
accept it totally."

Your relationship has ended, your heart is broken so you have two options. One is to remain in this pain
forever and the other is to accept what has happened and move on. If you stay in your current situation you will remain unhappy. Only you can control your future and you need to start making choices that will
eventually bring you to your new life.

"I am somebody. I am me. I like being me. And I don’t need anybody to make me somebody."
You are a person and you are worth everything. Do not put yourself down or think that you are worthless because there is one person who does not love you anymore. Think of the other people that do love you (friends, family etc) and focus on continuing to make these people happy. If a relationship has broken up and you are broken hearted then maybe it has been for the best, maybe the relationship itself was making you
unhappy. Now you have been given a chance to find and love yourself. You don’t need anyone else. You are you and you WILL be happy again!

9 Things You Don't Know About Kissing!

2009-07-13T01:18:00.001-07:00

Want to make your smooches even hotter or just learn some fun facts? Read on for these kissing tips...

1. There are tons of nerve endings ...

… in your lips (100 times more than in your fingertips!) that stimulate desire. That's why smooching before, during, and after sex can be extremely arousing and satisfying.

Source: Krista Bloom, Ph.D., author of The Ultimate Compatibility Quiz

2. Pay attention to those "See ya later" pecks. If your guy ...

… routinely only gives you a quick kiss on the cheek when saying good-bye, it could be that he's guarded and doesn't emote easily. If this is a more recent development, it's a warning sign; he may be feeling ambivalent about the relationship.

Source: Body language expert Tony Reiman

3. Forty percent of men say that ...

… a really long, steamy kiss will get them immediately ready to head to the bedroom. (Thirty percent said that grabbing their crotch will do it. Duh.)

Source: Cosmo Poll, April 2009

4. Instantly turn up the kissing intimacy by ...

… closing the "A-frame": a smooching stance in which you and your guy are in the middle of a smooch but your hips are a mile apart. By pressing your hips together, the degree of desire quickly rises.

Source: William Cane, kissing coach and author of The Art of Kissing

5. The best way to kiss a guy's ear? Kiss and ...

… suck on his earlobe for a moment and then trace the outline of his ear with the tip of your tongue. (Bonus points if you whisper something naughty to him.)

Source: Ava Cadell, Ph.D.

6. Men initiate open-mouth kissing to transfer ...

… libido-boosting testosterone to their partner. So when he's getting a little more aggressive, it's not just about his desire — he wants you to be a bit more amorous too.

Source: Study by the University at Albany

7. Men are more than twice as likely ...

… to sleep with a bad kisser than are women.

Source: eHarmony.com, "What Men and Women Want in a Kiss"

8. Fifty-four percent of women ...

… between the ages of 18 and 24 say they've kissed another girl. That number drops to 43 percent for those between 25 and 34.

Source: Cosmo Poll, December 2008

9. During the Middle Ages, people signed legal contracts ...

… by making an "X" on the document and then kissing it to pledge their honor. That's how XX became shorthand for a smooch.

Women's Rules for Men..

Hey folks! Just read this cute "Rules" from another site and I decided to copy/paste it in my Blog..I also sent a dozen copies to my boyfriend and I do wish he will post and paste them to his head..but knowing him, i know he will just tell me i'm giving him another subject for his nightmares lol..

I'm quite guilty coz I know this is not my original work but well well well..seems almost everyone in here are using the "copy/paste" artwork anyways..so what the heck!!!

Woman's' 50 Rules for Men

1.Call.
2.Don't lie.
3.Never tape any of her body parts together.
4.If guys' night out is going to be fun, invite the girls.
5.If guys' night out is going to involve strippers, remember the zoo rules: No Petting.
6.The correct answer to "Do I look fat?" is never, ever "Yes."
7.Ditto for "Is she prettier than me?"
8.Victoria's Secret is good. Frederick's of Hollywood is bad.
9.Ordering for her is good. Telling her what she wants is bad.
10.Being attentive is good. Stalking is bad.
11."Honey", "Darling", and "Sweetheart" are good. "Nag", "Lardass", and "######" are bad.
12.Talking is good. Shouting is bad. Slapping is a felony.
13.A grunt is seldom an acceptable answer to any question.
14.None of your ex-girlfriends were ever nicer, prettier, or better in bed.
15.Her cooking is excellent.
16.That isn't an excuse for you to avoid cooking.
17.Dish soap is your friend.
18.Hat does not equal shower, aftershave does not equal soap, and warm does not equal clean.
19.Buying her dinner does not equal foreplay.
20.Answering "Who was that on the phone?" with "Nobody" is never going to end that conversation.
21.Ditto for "Whose lipstick is this?"
22.Two words: clean socks.
23.Believe it or not, you're probably not more attractive when you're drunk.
24.Burping is not sexy.
25.You're wrong.
26.You're sorry.
27.She is probably less impressed by your discourse on your cool car than you think she is.
28.Ditto for your discourse on football.
29.Ditto for your ability to jump up and hit any awning in a single bound.
30."Will you marry me?" is good. "Let's shack up together" is bad.
31.Don't assume PMS is the cause for every bad mood.
32.Don't assume PMS doesn't exist.
33.No means No. Yes means Yes. Silence could mean anything she feels like at that particular moment in time, and it could change without notice.
34."But, we kiss..." is not justification for using her toothbrush. You don't clean plaque with your tongue.
35.Never let her walk anywhere alone after 11pm.
36.Chivalry and feminism are NOT mutually exclusive.
37.Pick her up at the airport. Don't whine about it, just do it.
38.If you want to break up with her, break up with her. Don't act like a complete jerk until she does it for you.
39.Don't tell her you love her if you don't.
40.Tell her you love her if you do. Often.
41.Always, always suck up to her brother.
42.Think boxers.
43.Silk boxers.
44.Remember Valentine's Day, and any cheesy "anniversary" she so-names.
45.Don't try to change the way she dresses.
46.Her haircut is never bad.
47.Don't let your friends pick on her.
(please note that the following two have been mentioned not once, but twice)
48.Call.
49.Don't lie.
50.The rules are never fair. Accept this without question. The fact that she has to go through labor while you sit in the waiting room on your ### smoking cigars isn't fair either, and it balances everything out.

How to Become a better Girlfriend

2009-07-05T22:43:00.000-07:00

Wouldn’t it be neat if either of the sexes is able to instinctively decipher each other’s minds? There will be no need to beat around the bush and end up feeling stupid. Talk is good, but sometimes people say one thing but really mean another. It then becomes convenient to say men are from Mars, women are from Venus. Rules of diplomacy are in order.

Here’s one hilarious list I was able to stumble upon online. For us ladies.

Mens’ Rules for Women

1.It is only common courtesy that you should leave the seat on the toilet UP when you are done.

2.If you are cooking a special dinner for a man, be sure to include something from each of the four major male food groups: Meat, Fried, Beer, and Red.

3.Don’t make him hold your purse in the mall.

4.Despite the overwhelming evidence to the contrary in many of the fine bars and fraternities throughout the country, not all men are cretins deserving your contempt.

5.Shopping is not fascinating.

6.When he asks for a threesome with you and your best friend, he is only joking.

7.Unless the answer is yes.

8.In which case, can he videotape it?

9.If you REALLY want a nice guy, stop dating good-looking assholes.

10.The man is ALWAYS in charge of poking the campfire with a stick and/or tending the grill.

11.Trying to provoke a large, dangerous-looking felon from across the room is not funny.

12.Money does not equate love. Not even in Nevada.

13.Any attempt by a man to prepare food, no matter how feeble (ie Microwaving a burrito, fixing Spaghetti, etc) should be met with roughly the same degree of praise a parent might shower upon their infant when it walks for the first time.

14.Those male models with perfect bodies are all gay. Accept it.

15.He heard you the first time.

16.You know, YOU can ask HIM out too… Let’s spread the rejection around a little.

17.If you truly want honesty, don’t ask questions you don’t really want the answer to.

18.Of COURSE he wants another beer.

19.The guy doesn’t ALWAYS have to sleep on the wet spot.

20.Dogs good. Cats bad.

21.Any sort of injury involving the testicles is not funny.

22.If he has to sit through “Legends of the Fall”, you have to sit through “Showgirls”.

23.”Fine.” is not an acceptable way to end an argument.

24.Do not question a man’s innate navigational abilities by suggesting he stop for directions.

25.He was not looking at that other girl.

26.Well, okay… maybe a little.

27.Okay, so what! He was looking at her. Big deal. Like you never looked at another guy…

28.There is nothing inherently wrong with the word “######”.

29.He is the funniest, strongest, best-looking, most successful man you have ever met.

30.And all your friends think so too. Especially the cute ones.

31.Your (select appropriate item:) butt/boobs/hair/makeup/legs look fine. As a matter of fact, it/they look damn good. Stop asking.

32.If you want a satisfying sex life, you will NEVER fake an orgasm.

33.It is not necessary to discuss the heaviness of your menstrual flow with him.

34.Remember: that Nair bottle looks an awful lot like shampoo if left in the shower.

35.Two words: blow job. Learn it. Live it. Love it.

36.Dirty laundry comes in several categories: Looks fine/smells fine, Looks fine/smells bad, Looks dirty/smells fine. Unless you intend to wash it, do not try to disrupt piles organized in this manner.

37.Yes, Sharon Stone/Pamela Anderson/Cindy Crawford is prettier than you. Just like Brad Pitt/Antonio Banderas/Keanu Reeves is better looking than him. But since neither one of you is going to be dating any of these people, love the one you’re with.

38.Of course size matters, and boy does he have the grandaddy of them all.

39.His (fill in appropriate selections:) bald spot/beer gut/impossibly thick glasses/impotency/scabby rash, is cute.

40.Don’t hog the covers.

41.Watching football is a major turn-on for you. But please wait until the halftime show to act upon that…

42.He does not just want to be friends.

43.A successful date always starts with the woman uttering the sentence: “You know, why don’t we just skip the expensive dinner and stay here having freaky circus sex all night?”

Happy Fathers Day Tay

2009-06-21T19:59:00.000-07:00

So what did I do for fathers day? I bought my father a new watch, tagal kung pinag isipan kung anong ibibigay kung regalo sa kanya kase nagkataon na birthday din niya sa araw na yon, yung choices ko first relo kase nung mothers day binigyan ko ng relo ang nanay ko sympre ingitero ang tatay ko for sure gusto niya mahal din yung regalo niya, second choice is air gun mahilig kasi siyang mamaril, yata... (minsan palagay ko bumabalik lang siya sa pagka bata) kaya lang masyadung mahal tsaka baka di kuna siya madatnan sa bahay pag nagkaroon siya ng isa pa, kase pag nagkataon meron na siyang ipapahiram sa mga kalaro niya (kalaro tawag ko sa mga kaibigan niya), third suggestion ng kaibigan ko, bigyan ko daw siya ng chicks (tsk tsk tsk) patay ako sa nanay ko, kaya yung pinaka safe na regalo nalang ang pinili ko. It's my first time to give him a gift kase di ko afford bumili ng gift dati dahil nag aaral pa yung dalawa kung kapatid at pag dumarating yung fathers day wala akong pera kase katatapos lang nilang mag enroll. heto na yata yung pinaka masayang fathers day celebration namin kahit sobrang busy namin kaka entertain ng mga bisita niya at naging dish washer ako, waitress, at janitor masayang masaya naman siya so its allworth it.

I am a comedy fan

2009-06-15T01:15:00.000-07:00

a friend recommend this new sit-com Big Bang Theory, he gave me a copy of the first season and i was hooked i didn't left the tv till i finish the first season,
i love the characters and the witty plot that goes along with. a very funny show and i would recommend this show to everyone,

The characters are 4 nerdy men and one pretty female neighbor. The nerds all like the neighbor but one REALLY likes her and hopes to have a relationship with her someday.....but it will never happen.

The nerds are hilarious, each one has their own quirks, but my favorite are Sheldon and Penny i like their facial expression.

here's a detailed description of the show taken from msn

From the same production team responsible for Two and a Half Men, the CBS "nerd-com" The Big Bang Theory clued the viewer in on what to expect right from the get-go by naming its two main characters "Sheldon" and "Leonard" (though all resemblance to the famous gangster actor-turned-TV producer ended right there!) They were both brilliant physicists, living together in a technology-cluttered apartment, and spending their free time with a circle of fellow geeks from Cal Tech. And, need we add,... Read more bbwsof course, Sheldon (Jim Parsons) and Leonard (Johnny Galecki) were despite their hyper-intelligence hopelessly "backward" on a social level; after all, it isn't easy to pick up girls when the only things you know how to talk about are isotopes and video games. Our heroes were thrown for a mobius strip when the incredibly beautiful and voluptuous Penny (Kaley Cuoco), a recent divorcee, moved into the apartment next door. Fascinated by the two "Beautiful Mind Guys", Penny decided to hang around with Sheldon and Leonard whenever possible. Having seldom been in such close proximity to a genuinely gorgeous girl, Leonard was anxious to make a few moves (assuming he knew any!), but Sheldon, perpetually unlucky in love, kept his distance, convinced that he'd only have his heart broken again. Occasionally dropping in for the random punchline were the boys' college pals, the loquacious Howard (Simon Helberg) and the virtually mute Rajesh (Kunai Nayyar).

"American Idol" runner-up Adam Lambert confirmed publicly that he is gay.

2009-06-09T18:22:00.000-07:00

Yeah We Know!!! and we don't care. I think you rock you have so much talent.

He said he is "proud of my sexuality" and never sought to hide it during the "Idol" competition.

"I embrace it," he said. "It's just another part of me."

Still, he stayed silent when, in March, a picture of him, dressed in drag and kissing an ex-boyfriend, emerged online.

The photo was taken on one of the three or four times he's dressed in drag, Lambert said, "but 'sucking my boy's face? Yes, that I will own.' "

He took down all of the pictures on his Facebook and MySpace pages before the "Idol" season, but he forgot about another Web site profile that included the drag photo, he said.

Lambert said his coming out is not a political statement.

"I'm trying to be a singer, not a civil rights leader," he said.

Lambert, who wowed "Idol" judges with his extraordinary vocal range, was seen as the overwhelming favorite to take the title in the May 20 finale.

However he lost in a final hyped as a smackdown between the conservative values of "red states" represented by Arkansas-based Allen and the liberal mores of "blue states" personified by the flamboyant Lambert.

Air France plane missing off Brazilian coast

2009-06-02T01:04:00.000-07:00

An Air France jet with 228 people disappeared over the Atlantic Ocean Monday en route from Brazil to Paris. The plane ran into severe weather shortly before it was last heard from, and authorities expressed little hope that any survivors would be found.

If there are no survivors, it would be the world's worst aviation disaster since 2001.

The 216 passengers included 126 men, 82 women, 7 children and a baby, Air France said. There were 61 French and 58 Brazilians; 30 other countries were represented, including two Americans.

Air France said it expressed "its sincere condolences to the families and loved ones of the passengers and crew members" aboard Flight 447.

Air France-KLM CEO Pierre-Henri Gourgeon said the pilot had 11,000 hours of flying experience, including 1,700 hours flying this aircraft.

Experts said the absence of a mayday call meant something happened very quickly.

"The conclusion to be drawn is that something catastrophic happened on board that has caused this airplane to ditch in a controlled or an uncontrolled fashion," Jane's Aviation analyst Chris Yates told The Associated Press. "Potentially it went down very quickly and so quickly that the pilot on board didn't have a chance to make that emergency call."

Airbus spokeswoman Maggie Bergsma said it was the first fatal accident of a A330-200 since a test flight in 1994 went wrong, killing seven people in Toulouse.

The Airbus A330-200 is a twin-engine, long-haul, medium-capacity passenger jet that can hold up to 253 passengers. There are 341 in use worldwide, flying up to 7,760 miles a trip.

Susan Boyle finished in second place

2009-06-01T01:02:00.000-07:00

Susan Boyle finished in second place, behind dance troupe Diversity.
For the final round, Boyle performed the song that made her an Internet sensation, 'I Dreamed a Dream' from 'Les Miserables,' and earned high praise from all the judges. Watch

Despite the loss, judge Simon Cowell said Boyle has "come out of this very well. We've never had a runner-up like Susan Boyle before. She's won over a lot of fans tonight through her graciousness. She's a really sweet person. She has a massive future ahead of her."

"That to me was THE greatest performance I've seen in Britain's Got Talent history... you should win. I loved it," judge Piers Morgan told Boyle as she walked away.
Judge Amanda Holden was almost brought to tears.

As for her future, she told viewers, "I hope to get an album out. Who knows? I will just play it by ear."

Hayden Kho Binuhusan ng tubig sa senate hearing

2009-05-28T01:28:00.000-07:00

During the Senate probe Thursday morning on the Hayden’s video scandal craze, former police officer Abner Afuang suddenly splashes water over the young doctor who was stunned but couldn’t do anything about it. A slight commotion then follows. He was arrested as per request of Jamby.

hayden kho's mom speaks about his scandal

2009-05-25T01:45:00.000-07:00

Hayden Kho's mother is just as crazy as Hayden. She says all the time in this
interview from TV Patrol that she does not want to talk about it, that she does not want to elaborate, but you'd hear her talking and elaborating.

Mrs. Irene Kho appeared on television Monday night and took the cudgels for her controversial son whom she described as “matino, mabait, and disente.” This statement left viewers wondrin’ whether it was Hayden or his mother who’s hooked on drugs.

In defending Hayden Kho, a combative Mrs. Irene Kho lambasted Katrina Halili’s “acting,” blamed Lolit Solis and Bong Revilla for the sex scandal, and insisted that her beloved son is “matino, disente, at mabait.” Ang anak ko pinaglalaruan. Ang anak ko tinatapakan.” Apparently, Mrs. Kho has not seen her son’s lewd videos. Otherwise, she would have said, “Ang anak ko dinadaganan. Ang anak ko kinakain. Ang anak ko inuupuan. Ang anak ko pinapatungan.”

Reacting to Mrs. Irene Kho’s tirade, talent manager Lolit Solis on Tuesday lashed back at the mother of celebrity doctor Hayden Kho Jr. and denied instructing Katrina Halili to shed tears before television cameras after the actress’ sex video with the controversial doctor flooded cyberspace. Solis said

"Mrs. Kho, don’t point your finger on anyone else. You should instead focus on your son’s deeds so you could know where you could help him. It was like you were even giving your consent."

Susan Boyle Britains Got Talent Semi-finale

2009-05-24T01:58:00.000-07:00

The lady that has taken the world by storm - from just one performance in the first week of auditions - returns this evening for the most highly anticipated performance we've ever had!

Most reality stars can only dream of cracking America, but this one's already done it! Can Susan match her audition success?

Susan's tear-jerking performance of Memory from the musical Cats has surely made TV history - again. We wondered if Elaine Paige - as well as the rest of the world - was watching? Or if she enjoyed Susan's exuberant celebrations as much as we did when she won!? The judges then decided that dance troupe Diversity - with their fully loaded and freshly original routine - should snap up the other Final spot, beating little Natalie Okri into third place. Poor little Natalie began to cry. Never mind lovely, you'll always be a Superstar around here!

Senator Bong Revilla and Assunta de Rossi Scandal

2009-05-23T01:54:00.000-07:00

Senator Bong Revilla and Assunta de Rossi Scandal leaked! After voicing the name of Hayden Kho’s Perversity, someone uploaded the photo of Senator Ramon Bong Revilla with Assunta de Rossi. The photo showed Senator Bong Revilla kissing a topless Assunta de Rossi. Someone wants to backfire at the Senator Actor.

Senator Bong Revilla claims that the intimate kissing photo of him and former sexy star Assunta De Rossi was obviously photoshopped.

The senator, points out that the lower part of the photo was the one digitally manipulated.

In the full version of the said photo, Sen. Bong and Assunta are totally unwrapped exposing their lower parts, most especially that of Sen. Bong. He though doesn't claim it as fake because according to him, it was taken from a scene in one of his blockbuster movies entitled Kilambot At Kembot.

Kilabot at Kembot was R-18 during that time. In a review from CBCP World, the movie had objectional features such as vulgar language, erotic dances, very skimpy costumes, womanizing, and prolonged and suggestive s-x scenes.

I'm hesitant in posting the picture, if you want to see it leave a comment and i'll just email it.
