  • Kevin Costner saves the oil spill: channels Waterworld

    What I find simultaneously epic and funny is that the device he’s using quite resembles the contraption he used to filter urine from fresh water in his blockbuster hit, Waterworld.

  • Warning (GRAPHIC): Sniper kills red shirts in Thailand

  • Harvest

    It came to the point where I had to move a little bit of rock to get the sorry little buggers out of the crevices. Floating from an angle, I motioned to Denise that I wanted to give it a shot and grabbed the BBQ tongs to pry the crown out of its strong velcro-like…

  • I’m on a boat

    Crap. I thought I had my camera inside the car’s glove compartment. The joke’s on me. So it was just me and the Nokia N900’s camera. I took a hundred or so photos inside the Costa Romantica. After all, I’m on a boat. Click for more photos.

  • This guy. This is the guy.

Instead, they donate money. This is great! As a donor, my monthly financial contribution isn’t much but to make up for this, I…

  • Instructions

    “Jayvee Fernandez? Who are you?” The girl at the registration table didn’t see my name on the list. I double checked — I knew I had confirmed with the PR agency a couple of days ago. But this was getting embarrassing as I was holding up the line. I must say that It is awkward…

  • Do you still want to know what I think of Apple’s iPad?

    Imagine if the iPad made its debut right after the MacBook Air. Imagine if Steve Jobs unveiled the next generation iPads to be the smaller and more handy iPod touch and iPhones respectively. That would have made bigger news. Net of it all, it’s a great device to have around the house for surfing, reading…
