Recently, the video from ANC News Channel on how the Super Yolanda and Napoles Firecrackers appearing on news and the social media and even word of mouth. These illegal bangers are bestsellers among those who buy contrabands. On TV, they cut a portion of hog's hind leg for actual demonstration of these firecrackers effects on the hog's hind from the explosion. The potential risk it can cause are far greater than the benefits it can give. It looks like a blown of hand of a human from an  exploding  hand grenade or incendiaries.

GM Experience: Drunk on the Holidays!

Christmas time is here and a lot of people are in for the festivities of the occasion.

Consumption of alcoholic beverages is very high in this time of the season and it is an accepted practice among Pinoys to drink. However, most  people tend to forget their responsibilities when drinking and should remember that it should moderation and in social function. Saving themselves from being drunk crazy and into troubles or embarrassment on this times. 

I have seen hapless people getting into accidents or being caught for Driving Under Influence (DUI) or Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) on major highways and road. I too got into the drinking festivities with some heavy drinking buddies and got home in one piece and my car intact on the momentous Christmas Party and Barbeque with boys in the company three years ago. I swear to myself that I will not take my car if I am going into this drinking spree and would rather ride a taxi or a bus instead or stay for the night in a friend's house just to be safe.

The Christmas Breakup: Relationships going Splitville!

A few days ago before the holidays, I recently talked to a friend in the office. I saw her past by feeling sad and miserable. She was a bit  apprehensive and frustrated on one of our conversation at break time. She was not keen on saying something with what happened with her beau lately until a few minutes later in the middle of the conversation she told the truth that their relationship went SPLITS VILLE a few days ago before Christmas. She was crying and we (me and another office mate) gave her a hug and a little piece of advice on this types of situation as her friends and colleagues when she needed someone to give her emotional boosts on that they day on. I felt awkward like an old man giving advice to a young girl. To tell you she was 13 years my senior and less than a year working in the company and I was her boss.
