A Case For Hoops: March 2013
http://acaseforhoops.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
A Case For Hoops. Wednesday, March 20, 2013. Ricky Rubio and the Art of Passing. Nowadays, it’s all about point guards who score – see for example, Derrick Rose, Russell Westbrook and Kyrie Irving. I like the other kind, the point guard whose main goal in life is setting up his teammates, making the right pass. More particularly, I like those who treat passing as an art. Ricky Rubio is from the Magic Johnson school of point guards. Sadly, he plays for the Minnesota Timberwolves which means you won...

A Case For Hoops: Seize the Day
http://acaseforhoops.blogspot.com/2013/04/seize-day.html
A Case For Hoops. Tuesday, April 30, 2013. Most people want to go the US to pursue the American dream. Me, I just want to watch the Lakers at Staples Center before Kobe Bryant retires. Last December, I had the chance to do just that. For reasons which felt valid then, I did not. I rationalized that Kobe (my favorite Laker since Magic Johnson) was under contract until the 2013-2014 season and could very well play a few more seasons after that. Plenty of time, I told myself. But after this injury? The only...

A Case For Hoops: Could the Lakers trade Kobe?
http://acaseforhoops.blogspot.com/2013/03/could-lakers-trade-kobe.html
A Case For Hoops. Sunday, March 17, 2013. Could the Lakers trade Kobe? Imagine if you are Mitch Kupchak, the General Manager of the Lakers. On one hand, you have Kobe Bryant, 34 years old and making US$27 Million a year. After this season, he is under contract for 2013-2014, when he is projected to make roughly US$30 Million a year. He will also turn 35 years old before that season starts. Flashback to 2004 – the Lakers had just lost to the Detroit Pistons in the NBA Finals. Shaquille O’N...Faced with th...

DEACTIVATING THE AUTOPILOT: FROM DUST TO DUST
http://squawk-eds.blogspot.com/2010/02/from-dust-to-dust.html
Because He Is More Spontaneous Than His Character. Feb 17, 2010. FROM DUST TO DUST. I was rushing to catch my 6 PM train to Novena when a colleague in her late forties caught me along the frantic flow. On your way to the gym? Nope Catching the 6:30 mass at the Redemptorist. It's a holy day or something? Aaii yoh, totally forgot! I have no idea she is Catholic. Baptized just last year. In a society with a motley mix of culture, ethnicity and beliefs, you can't tell. What's the feast again? I go this way.

Taguig Citizen: A Turntable Story
http://www.taguigcitizen.com/2014/11/a-turntable-story.html
The day to day life of a resident of (the non-Fort Bonifacio side of) Taguig City, Philippines. Thursday, November 27, 2014. So I went to a shop today, and asked for a demo of the Rega RP3 turntable. And my first questions were:. 1 Can you choose which track or song to play? And if yes, how do you do that? 2 What happens if you fall asleep while you're listening to a "record" and the record ends? It make screeching sounds? The cassette tape players ( think John Cusack and Say Anything. It's funny how the...

The day to day life of a resident of (the non-Fort Bonifacio side of) Taguig City, Philippines. Saturday, May 4, 2013. Wellcome at McKinley Hill. In my quest for groceries in Taguig. I stumbled upon one called Wellcome:. It's located in the ground floor of Megaworld's Stamford Executive Residences. Which lies within the McKinley Hill area. There's parking along the building and in a small parking area in front, but it's not free - they charge Php 30.00 pesos. Chain owned by Jardine Matheson Holdings.

DEACTIVATING THE AUTOPILOT: LO HEI
http://squawk-eds.blogspot.com/2010/02/lo-hei.html
Because He Is More Spontaneous Than His Character. Feb 22, 2010. My 4th Lo Hei. I'm counting 4 in this sterile island state). It is a Singapore dish that is traditionally served during Chinese New Year festivities. Families (in my case, officemates) gather together and toss up for a good fortune ahead. The higher you toss, the more luck you have. The dish is basically a chop suey. Eating was a different matter. My Pinoy palate was just too picky. Before you eat it, you toss it up pa? Lahi sab sila og trip.
