US soliders, Japanese diplomats and Spanish convoy have been the brunt of Iraqi ambushed attacks by terrorist and Saddam Fedayeen. Somebody should do something about those loyalist of Hussein!

Happy Thanksgiving!
One good article from Boston Globe and James Caroll Of Thanks and Mercy... More dead GIs over the weekend, more mutilated. More global terror as the blowback spreads. More opposition in the streets abroad. But at Thanksgiving, can't the columnist let up? War, war, war. What about all the things for which we Americans can be grateful?
Thanksgiving time! All you Americans out there, may you have good size Turkey to chow down. Hehehe. It's the time when Americans should be thankful for; Soldiers serving abroad and feeling lucky that despite the many hardships and bombings they endure they're still able to celebrate the day. And for those who have perished and has given a lot to good causes, a Happy thanks giving as well.

FPJ announces candidacy for President
“Ako po, si Fernando Poe Jr., ay lalahok sa pagkapangulo [I, Fernando Poe Jr., will compete for the presidency],”
Ending the speculations of many, Fernando Poe Jr aka "Da King" said he will run for Philippine President come may 2004.
Shades of Erap Estrada in the making maybe. Intention to run and help people is sincere but too bad for him he's got a very clean name and it'll be tarnished, pried upon and besmirched by opponents. Politcs a dirty game!

A Manila Bay story of rediscovering
Earlier, we thought we would not make it on time, but looking at the sky as we turned toward Roxas Boulevard, he said, "I think we still have one hour." It was the first time for both of us to see the sunset on Manila Bay. He is from Seattle, and I am from Quezon City, but I had never bothered before to wait for the sun to set on Manila Bay, knowing that it would always be there, available for me when I finally have the time. Now that he insisted, I went along although I had a lot of papers to file at the office. After all, he was my visitor. Read full story
Heh. Romantic capers promoting beauty that is Manila Bay sunset. Teeeheehe :)

It's the "IN" thing in campaign tools: a BLOG!
Presidential canidates Howard Dean has one so does Gen. Wesley Clark. And both generate a lot of webvisits. Link via OJR full story from Washington Post.
Of course that applies in US but what about here in the Philippines. Hmm. I doubt if our Presidentiables even know what a blog is! Hahaha. Besides it won't be an effective tool here(Somewhere I hear a duh! haha) for we have voters in far flung barrios and other remote places which most likely hasn't even seen a computer or know what an internet is..let alone a blog.

Ugh! How could she!?!
A woman turned down a 3 hour shopping spree! Geez, what a waste! I wish I was the winner. Three hours probably isn't enough and OMG to think it's even free! Tsk tsk!

Jacko the Wacko and his problems
And Michael Jackson was released after posting bail.
Hmm, I kinda felt sorry for the guy. Yayness...haha
Update: Hehe, I don't feel sorry for the wacko..I'm fully awake! Hahaha. Truth is, the wacko is "sleeping with young boys! (He admitted it). He should be put jail. In same way that priests who molests young boys should be incarcerated too. Oh and I freaking agree what Crazy Pundit said of Jacko's mug shot; Creepy! Soo damn disgustingly scary! *shudders* Hahahaha..Eww Gawd!

They're at it again!
Istanbul, Turkey is rocked by bomb attacks and explosions (more than 450 gotinjured and 27 dead)once more. Who else but Al-Qaeda is believed to be responsible for the blast.
"The nature of the terrorist enemy is evident once again," Bush said. "They hope to intimidate. They hope to demoralize. . . . They're not going to succeed."
Yeah, so better capture those terrorist, Dubya!

Biggest show in Hollywood
A mix and match of politics and entertainment it seems during the swearing in of the Terminator..Ahhhnnuld, of course..hehe. From Sacramento Bee:
It was a you-never-know kind of day, as legislators and celebrities who don't typically wait for much of anything passed time in long lines leading up to metal detectors; a demonstrator walked with a sign containing messages about "12 galaxies" and "tugretonial coverage" and "phugratinetel" somethingorother; Richard Riordan, the state's new secretary of education, nearly stage-dived off the media tower when he tripped over a wayward wire on his way to yet another interview; and the hot item on the streets was a $20 T-shirt bearing the slogan "Arnold's the One." read the whole story(w/pics too). The San Jose Mercury also has a good funny sidehsows of the glitz and glamour innaguration:
Like the wild campaign that preceded his victory, Schwarzenegger's big day contained a bit of circus, a smattering of show biz and a ton of history.
It's soo soo..yay, I wonder how it would be like like FPJ runs and wins in 2004. Fernando Poe Jr, of course is a famous actor here and is highly expected to run for the country's number job. That of being the President. Funny! Haha

Word for the day: Seamless Computing
And Bill Gates defined it as the ability to access and share information among many kinds of devices, from software-enabled wrist watches to new designs in cell phones and virtually any type of PC. He's thinking "S" these day as he unveils new stuff and overview of his products from his super smart savvy sense of geekness.
Yeyness! new products eh!? Need those anti spam thingies!

Al-Qaeda warns the Japanese..
If it sends troops to join the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq, they will attack Tokyo! Saw the news via Drudgereport Read details here
Oh my! With all the Japanese technology and inventions they should discover or make one that can really track down the whereabouts of Bin laden, Saddam and those terror network groups and theiir cells!

Ultimate malling experience
This report from St Louis Post- Dispatch explains it. At St. Louis Mills, the line between retail and entertainment is blurry. Besides the more than 200 outlet stores and specialty shops, the shopping center features an 18-screen Regal cineplex; the Ice Zone, a new practice facility for the St. Louis Blues; a NASCAR SpeedPark; and an ESPN X Games Skatepark. It will also offer facilities for skateboarding, BMX bike-stunt riding and in-line skating. The Mall with aNASCAR SpeedPark features racing tracks for electric and gas-powered cars, bumper boats, an arcade, a climbing wall and a miniature golf course. .
Wow! The kind of mall people here would enjoy I bet. All in one mall. Calling all Taipans! Hehe :) Most of the Malls here(the newer upperclass ones) are patterned after shops in Hongkong and Singapore..Classy and building type with large glass window panes. The closest I can compare to St Louis Mills is SM Megamall

Pardon, but I'll take my (cell)number with me
It looks like there's a pre thanksgiving gifts for the Millions of American mobile users. Beginning 24th of November, customers can move their wired home or business numbers to cell phones.
In other wordstheir home numbers can be their mobile numbers. Uhm, I guess no more call diverts for them or something like that.

There goes the warning and the explosion!
Explosions blasted an affluent residential compund in Riyadh earlier. It's disheartening cos a lot of children were wounded it seems and as I watched the news can't help but say yeah the U.S. was anticipating a terror attack hence the advisory and closure of it's Embassy. I think they had targeted that, instead of the dimpomatic residence nearby that houses westerners cos they knew the U.S. discovered the planned attack.
The American government needs to capture Al Qaeda, Saddam and other terrorist leaders!
