THAT STRANGE FEELING: Outing
http://georgedelapaz.blogspot.com/2015/04/outing.html
MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Friday, April 24, 2015. The guys (barkadas) and the families are going on a two-day summer outing in Batangas tomorrow. It's been five years since we had a get together and this is long overdue. Though we are neighbors, we don't get the chance to get together because of work, busyness, schedules, blah, blah. This will be fun and there'll be a lot of reminiscing and maybe even a few (with the help of beer or rum) tears shed. George C. dela Paz. Free Sc...

THAT STRANGE FEELING: 09/01/2014 - 10/01/2014
http://georgedelapaz.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Monday, September 15, 2014. I potted this molave (vitex cofassus) about two years ago. It's time to "operate" on it. Checking the root growth. George C. dela Paz. Links to this post. Sunday, September 14, 2014. A molave (vutex pavlifora) tree planted in a pot. I have had this for two years. I decided to reduce it now. It is big leafed vitex but with the reduction it will adapt and produce small leaves (I hope). George C. dela Paz. Links to this post.

MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Monday, May 04, 2015. People who contributed to Manny Pacquiao's lost to Floyd Mayweather Jr. I am a Manny Pacquiao fan and like many people around the world and would have loved to see Pacquiao knock down Mayweather on the mat but the fight didn't turn out that way. Instead, using unorthodox tactics Mayweather out danced and outrun Manny Pacquiao winning the bout the other way around, by not boxing. 10 Mommy Dinosia's prayers failed. I first heard Li...

MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Thursday, May 21, 2015. Brigada Eskwela and Asthma. PNP personnels fixing broken desks. When I was in my grade school I used to skip the firs week of school because I knew. And my parents knew too). That the first days of classes would be spent cleaning the school grounds and the classrooms. The pupils were asked to bring cleaning implements: brooms, dustpan, coconut husk and sandpapers. I most especially dreaded the sand papers. George C. dela Paz.

MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Thursday, April 02, 2015. I saw "Interstellar" on Putlocker a couple of days ago. Although the slow internet and the quality of the video was stressful for me (made me want to throw the keyboards out the door), the story did manage to hook me despite of everything. In Earth's future, a global crop blight and second. Slowly rendering the planet uninhabitable. Professor Brand. Michael Caine), a brilliant NASA physicist, is working on plans. So, instead ...

MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Saturday, May 05, 2012. So bad it was good: Nazis at the Center of the Earth. So bad it's good! I watched Nazis at the Center of the Earth. This afternoon and it was so bad that I could not stop from watching it. Just before the WW II in Europe ended a group of Nazis led by Dr. Josef Mengele. Hitler being transported. Of course, at the beginning of the movie I did not think this was Hitler. I thought it was a bomb or a virus or something. Of course, a...

THAT STRANGE FEELING: Pilosopo
http://georgedelapaz.blogspot.com/2011/08/pilosopoare-filipinos-anti-intellectual.html
MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Friday, August 05, 2011. What is a pilosopo? This choice of words shows the low regard that Filipino society has for critical thinking and challenging of the status quo. It’s a society where anti-intellectualism is a virtue, and where too much careful thinking is a sign of weirdness and unacceptable behavior. Socrates would not be proud. Filipinos do not discourage argumentation or reasoning, they just place them below respect and propriety. It is...

MEANDERING THOUGHTS OF A PINOY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER. Thursday, October 05, 2006. I miss Harry Gasser and our Zenith. I was watching 24 Oras and something happened to me: I suddenly realized that I missed someone. I missed someone that I grew up with on television. I missed Harry Gasser. During the early eighties we had successions of TVs that didn’t work well. I never knew where my father got those successions of large cabinet type vacuum tube TVs with missing channels, but I had an inkling. When my dea...
