I wonder if wearing a Police or Military uniforms would exempt you from wearing a helmet while driving motorcycle or maybe will exempt you anytime from any violations of traffic rules. I observed that traffic enforcers don’t even bother to flag down those persons in uniform while driving without helmet. I thought helmet law has already been approved. I also noticed that they are the ones violating some traffic rules like motorcycle lane and color coding.

One instance, during a heavy traffic afternoon, I was cut by a man driving a motorcycle who was just wearing an ordinary shirt and military short and cap but not a helmet. He’s really insisting to cut in-front of me while cars that time were stalled because of heavy traffic. At first I thought he was an ordinary motorist just wearing a military short but suddenly he looked at me and show at his sidearm. I don’t think it is right to those in uniforms to carry a gun but are not in a proper uniform. Hopefully they themselves know all these laws and will be the one implementing it. They are the ones who must obey those rules first.

Many of us use different style and approach in expressing oneself and opinion. While a lot of internet people use blogs, twitter and facebook other forms of demonstration and gatherings while artist used painting and arts in doing so. Many also express their sentiments and feeling in T-shirt printing. Not just funny tshirts but that now, almost anything you want to say can be written in your t shirt. But hopefully you can regulate yourself also. Avoid too much foul or offensive word that are not good to your fellow and especially to the children.

Almost all service provider companies have stepped up or leveled up their consumer marketing strategies. Most of them offer their products via a promo so that prices can come out affordable, such us through a bundle scheme where consumers get extra, or sometime through a discount. But as consumer we will always see to it that we accept their offers not just because of what they contain but rather due to their value and the advantages of having them which we really need.

It is seldom for one to see a good working relationship happening between the boss and the subordinate nowadays. In many instances, bosses tend to be described as something bad if not a monster. But thankfully, it did not apply to me in my working experience.

Lately, I met my very first boss from my long previous job. He was my boss for more than five years and through the years, our working relationship developed into father and son almost. I am glad that he already stopped smoking after a major heart procedure done to him. I think even someone can offer him a dutchmaster cigar unlike before when he used to consume four to six case of cigar each day.

I have been thinking of having a vacation in a cold place stay where I can stay in a wooden lodge vacation house  in Tagaytay or Baguio, sitting in teak Adirondack chairs like I have no problem at all. At least in a cold place away from the present summer heat in the metro that we are experiencing right now, one can already feel blessed. I thought it will be a wet summer but temperatures averaging to almost 35-37 degrees. These are degrees of temperature of a person with fever. We consume one container of drinking water in less than a week compared to one container for seven days. It is better to drink lots of water than to be dehydrated.

Temperatures are raging from 34 degrees to sometime 37 degrees can sometimes kill. Before, we could sleep with just an electric fan and sometimes we even use blanket because it’s cold. But now, I think we will die if we will not use an air conditioner.  This kind of temperature can sometimes make you lose weight because of sweating all day and so there is no need of slimvox anymore. But just beware that heat stroke can also kill.

Scarborough Shoal or Scarborough Reef is just a small group of islands and reefs but not just the Philippines are claiming it. It is disputed also by both the People’s Republic of China and Taiwan. According to China it was only claimed by the Philippines starting in 1997. But I don’t know or maybe they just need prescription glasses in reading geographical maps. What country is the nearest to the island? Maybe one may need consultation from United Nation to really decide who will be the right claimant according to the international law of water to prevent more serious stand-off.

There’s a post in facebook I read this morning that made me smile. It goes like this: In a year of marriage the husband speaks and the wife listens. After two years of marriage, the wife speaks and the husband listens. But after a couple of years of marriage, the husband and wife speak and the neighbors listen. It happens because marriage has full of trials. But love and understanding must always be maintained. Although anniversary rings diamond may not be present anymore, but a simple message of love will hopefully continue and that golden anniversary will be reached.

Almost  every year, we make our way to witness auto shows in the Philippines. There are a couple of auto shows regularly held every year. My son and I love cars that’s why I always bring him during my visits. Although there are some models in the show, my opinion is that they are not as sexy and daring compared to those one would see in motor and auto shows in other countries. Some even made a comment that models there even wear women’s cashmere shawl and not just sexy pieces anymore. While cars are the ones being presented there, it goes without saying that these models also attract car lovers.

Almost every year, my son and I are making a point to make it to the Manila International Auto Show (MIAS). I am hoping to be given a chance to visit the MIAS 2012. This year, the venue is still going to be at the World Trade Center Metro Manila, Philippines. The event will take place from March 29 to April 1, 2012. The Philippines’ biggest motor show in terms of visitor count will feature the latest models and significant concepts from the Philippines’ premiere and top auto makers. Although visitors  also want to see those attractive and beautiful models, they also wanted to see new customs and restored cars. It can be said that Filipino customized cars can now be comparable to cars customized in the US, not just in terms of putting leather furniture conditioner in the interiors of the car but also in body making and painting capabilities of the Filipinos going beyond what we are before.
