Last weekend, I was invited to a party at a friend’s home. Actually, I was invited to two different parties and made it to both. Myself and Imani “graced” the events and had the absolute best of time at both! The first was my friend Harry’s surprise party for his girlfriend. She was indeed surprised! Remember awhile ago, I suggested that all I wanted in li...

Musings from morning coffee. The Men Who Don’t Fit In. Posted by Dennis Youngblood. Asymp; 1 Comment. It has been some time since I last communicated with you. And for that, I apologize. I must confess that I was deeply affected by the loss of my line brother Mark. It struck me as unfair and it made writing difficult. Additionally, I started playing a great deal of chess on my computer and found it made matters worse! It only makes me feel more depressed about my inadequacies…. I can’t seem to do i...

Asymp; Leave a comment. 8221; I’m rushing to a meeting with one of my business partners, a very intelligent, trustworthy Chinese, who shares my vision for the company.

And the fast boat to Macau is nice! By the w...

Happy Thanksgiving | Lost in Manila

https://lostinmanilanewsletter.wordpress.com/2011/12/17/happy-thanksgiving

Musings from morning coffee. Posted by Dennis Youngblood. Asymp; Leave a comment. Thanksgiving for us in the United States represents a day to give thanks to the Indians for not killing us all when they had the chance! So much so, that we eventually repaid them by killing most of them and taking their land! It represents a day to be grateful for being alive, grateful for being born to my parents, grateful for being the sibling of my siblings, and friend of my friends! 8221; The answer is simple: just bec...

Musings from morning coffee. Brother From Another Mother. Posted by Dennis Youngblood. Asymp; 3 Comments. Las week, I had the distinct pleasure of dining with a friend who is quite probably one of the most powerful men in this country. While he is not Filipino, he yields a great deal of power and prestige. He was late for the dinner, but quite frankly, his reasons were quite understandable and admirable. He was taking care of something that was just plain awesome! I remember the days when I was the fathe...

The Society of Honor by Joe America. What are the obligations and rights of a non-citizen living in the Philippines? The rights are flimsier than for a citizen, for the citizen has the Constitution behind him. The non-citizen can be shipped out at the whim of someone in power. But the obligations of a non-citizen are not much different than for a citizen. Be respectful of laws and others. Contribute as much as possible to the well-being of the community. 41 Responses to “Anonymity”. 8220;Never trust a ma...

Nothing Gold Can Stay | Lost in Manila

https://lostinmanilanewsletter.wordpress.com/2011/12/26/nothing-gold-can-stay

Musings from morning coffee. Nothing Gold Can Stay. Posted by Dennis Youngblood. Asymp; 1 Comment. My favorite poem by Robert Frost is “Nothing Gold Can Stay”. While many experts have given explanations, for me it’s a metaphor for our life’s circumstances, and our lives. It’s short and simple and profound.
