The Biggest Little Man in the World

March 13th, 2010 · No Comments

Here’s a must-read well written profile about Manny Pacquiao by Andrew Corsello for GQ Magazine. It’s so interesting that I got through all 7 pages without getting one bit bored. This piece to me is like watching an Al Pacino / Robert de Niro fictional movie directed by Guy Ritchie. Strange, ruthless, ironic and humorous. [...]

November 10th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Gong Li famous for starring in the movies “Memoirs of a Geisha” and “Farewell my Concubine”  is now a Singapore citizen. What significance it has to me, personally?  Nothing really.  Just thought it was somewhat interesting in a non-sense way. Sphere: Related Content

Watch PBA on the internet

October 31st, 2007 · 1 Comment

We didn’t subscribe to TFC because the only thing Mr. Tsiken wants to watch from the Philippines is PBA and as much as I love watching celebrity gossip shows, I don’t think I’m that addicted to want to pay extra just to get them here on cable. So after months of trying to find out [...]
