Update on the wine: No hangover!!! It's quitenice because for the whole of last night, I had a nice surreeal feeling when walking and looking around. Excellent!!! The SO is coming home!!! I can't wait. stories, stories, more stories.

Anikka did well yesterday. I hope she makes the cut today, Saturday and Sunday. That would certainly place all those snobby male golfers in their place. Male golfers make double much more money than female ones and they just don't want to be compared to females.

LeBron James is a multi-millionare even before he plays pro basketball. This is a sign that to be rich in these days is a totally different matter than in the old days. I have been reading and following "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" (Richard Kiyosaki) examples on life. I still have a long way to go.

Anyways, on the radio, Rick Barry was complaining about how much money LeBron was going to make before dribbling one time or even passing the ball once. I on the other hand am clapping my hands with glee. This is the beauty of capitalism. If there is low supply like there is with talented high school players, then the demand will be very high. Thus, you get million dollar contracts. It's beautiful. It's what the hell we invaded Afghanistan and Iraq. You never know, there might be a 7 foot Arab teen-ager unable to play basketball because of religious intolerance. America is here to save you young man! You WILL be going on to college to learn English as a Second Language, Cinema as Life, and other brainless classes so that you can play in the varsity team. After college, you WILL go on to the NBA where it is becoming international because American players can't seem to pass or shoot jumpers anymore.

God, I am proud to be an American. It is a rare thing of beauty to be able to exploit the world and call it for the benefits of FREEDOM. Man, as a Filipino, I and my people have been so downtrodden that it feels good to be doing the trodding. Now, let's get that Martian explorer set up so that we can downtread on them Martians. They've been giving me that funny look. And you know, the Plutonians have also been rather snobby. They haven't paid tribute just because their planet is on the far side of the rotation from the sun.
