The D Spot

After struggling with a hacked blog, and then a problem I really am not sure what it was that disabled my blog (sort of dead), my blog is now alive. The D Spot is alive! It has been a long 10 weeks to feel that what I have worked on for 5 years has been [...]

Filipinos all over the world are very fond of watching and sharing videos. After all, they are part of the reason why viral videos have reached millions upon millions of views. Here are my top 10 viral videos in 2009. All the Single Babies This cute video was posted to be watched by a couple [...]

For almost an hour Arnel Pineda entertained the crowd in Eastwood Mall with his popular and well-loved songs. I was mesmerized such that despite the comfortable place where we were seated in The Old Vine, I still wanted to see him up close. Luck was on my side, as the guard allowed me entry and [...]

Two days after the family watched THIS IS IT, still I could not get over the experience. This is indeed MJ’s gift to his fans all over the world–from start to finish, I was enthralled. THIS IS IT is Michael Jackson’s best performance, his thriller–and the irony is that, it was recorded (100 hours of [...]

Twas a night to break away from work, with only Chato keeping me company while she was FB-ing. The 2 boys (Vince and BA have been away for a few days), Pau was in pep training, Mox went to a party, and Alan Jr was having fun watching TV (and it’s exam week, mind you). [...]

MJ’s memorial service must have been the most widely covered memorial service in our time. Thanks to technology! I wonder how it would have been with Gandhi had he died in this generation. Oh yes, there’s Lady Di’s–a big one, too. I can forget everything in MJ’s memorial–seemingly the most beautiful unrehearsed concert ever where [...]

I am posting this letter that I am writing to my 3 daughters, Pauline (who had her 2-day retreat last week) and Chato (who will have her 3-day retreat from today ownward) and Mox (who will have hers very soon). Dear Pau, Chat and Mox, My three daughters, best friends shall I say? Chato and [...]

I was surprised and so proud–seeing Arnel Pineda singing with the Journey at pre-game of XLIII Super Bowl. The main attraction for the halftime was Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. The matchup is between the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. Over the years the Super [...]

February is my most favorite month of the year. It’s like all through the years, February has given me a sense of inner peace and quiet joy. Perhaps because compared to other months, it goes by so fast, with only 28 days (every 4 years, 29), shorter by 2-3 days from the other months. February [...]

Six songs collide–but they produce beautiful music, in harmony. 1. Jason Mraz – I’m Yours 2. Howie Day – Collide 3. Five For Fighting – Superman 4. Angela Ammons – Always Getting Over You 5. Boyzone – All That I Need 6. 3 Doors Down – Here Without You

Here’s sharing with you a Christmas message–A Perfect Christmas, from Kuya G, chaplain of a large medical center. He calls himself a secret fan of The D Spot (I am humbled). . . I arrived in the Philippines 18 years ago and soon was greeted by Jose Mary Chan (JMC)’s “A Perfect Christmas” on the [...]

It’s December. Aside from Christmas, December is a month of weddings. Here’s a beautiful love song, expected to be played, sang and listened to again and again…HANGGANG by Wency Cornejo. And here are the lyrics: ilang ulit mo nang itinatanong sakin kung hanggang saan hanggang saan, hanggang kailan hanggang kailan magtatagal ang aking pagmamahal

I am posting the lyrics of the song, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus for the benefit of my three girls who only recently found the true meaning of the song. While in the car on our way to Chocolate Kiss in UP, we were singing Christmas carols, with Pau adding a twist to The [...]
