No Strings Attached

Besides starlet Locsin, another pet peeve of Raft3r is TMZ.

It’s this gossip cable show that chronicles the lives of celebrities as seen through their camera lenses.

It’s the most mind numbing show on the face of the planet. The starlet’s Only You is a close second.

There is nothing more disturbing than having cameras follow you wherever you go.

Not only does it violate a person’s right to privacy, it also shows a lack of respect on the part of the paparazzi.

Ironically, the show’s host and executive producer is a lawyer. Seriously.

Aren’t lawyers supposed to safeguard other people’s rights?

For the record, it is not cool to shove a camera in front of someone who is out doing the grocery.

Smack My Bitch Up

GMA strikes anew.

This time, a malicious internet article leaked about the Philippine President's alleged breast implants. Now local papers are all over it.

So did she or didn’t she? That is the question.

One writer said we should not judge the President by actions she’s done almost twenty years ago – and Raft3r agrees with that.

But I believe we can always blame Gloria for her present actions that would affect us and the entire nation twenty years from now.

Pay It Forward

Raft3r cut off his credit card today.

Finally.

It is one of the best feelings ever – almost close to an orgasm.

The goal is to be debt free.

One down. Three more to go.

I Shall Believe

Raft3r is a firm believer of supernatural mysteries and conspiracy theories.

I say - the crazier, the better. The Da Vinci Code has nothin’ on me.

Raft3r believes in the existence of extraterrestrial live.

I know Elvis is still alive.

Raft3r knows Nessie is swimming happily in Loch Ness.

I adhere to the concept of Atlantis as the missing continent.

But Raft3r laughs at the idea of a perfect love.

A Certain Shade Of Green

Raft3r’s favorite color is green. I am also green minded and there is no denying that.

Green signifies life. This color is also very pleasing to the eyes.

My car is green. So is the rest of my stuff. Even Raft3r’s toothbrush is green. It is also the color of money which is one of Raft3r’s favorite things.

I am quite known to take things to the extreme. So The Deadbeat Club is now green, as well.

A huge shout out to Oishi for making it happen. Thank you. You’re a lifesaver.

The only green thing Raft3r can do without: FROGS.

Post script: We are still trying to iron out some kinks with the new layout. Please bear with us.

Riding In Cars With Boys

Raft3r is a big fan of road trips.

There is nothing more enjoyable than going on a joyride with your male buddies.

Of course, girls are wonderful, too. But chicks and cars just don’t mix.

This weekend, my friends and I are off to Bolinao in Pangasinan.

I’m excited since I haven’t since them in awhile. There are a lot of tales to be exchanged.

Raft3r is the designated driver.

We have no map and I dunno exactly where Bolinao is. That certainly adds to the fun, huh?

Besides, what matters most is the journey and not the destination.

For the entire trip, I will be wearing my brand new Wayfarer. Raft3r gets to travel in style.

Let the good times roll.

No Son Of Mine

Fathers taught their sons to:

  • Not to cry;
  • Play ball;
  • Drive;
  • Be good with their hands like Handy Manny;
  • Respect their mothers;
  • Fear going to the doctor;
  • Handle finances well;
  • Find humor in everything;
  • Never ask for directions, even when lost; and
  • How to cheat on girls without getting caught.
Thank you, Dad. You're the best.

Video Killed The Radio Star

Sorry to disappoint.

But this post is not about Katrina Halili and that perverted doctor.

Due to modern technology, one can upload a video on YouTube and become an instant celebrity.

Yes, that is what the world has come to these days.

It only takes a video to make one famous.

How else can you explain Paris Hilton? Talent is no longer a requirement.

Tune in to your local channels and you would see nameless starlets with no thespian skills. It’s insulting.

It’s 2009. Hey, everyone is entitled to their own 15 minutes of fame.

Raft3r is certainly waiting for his.

Growing Pains

Raft3r has come along way since puberty.

Here's why:

  • I used to be short, thin, and sickly;
  • My high school get up was composed of cycling shorts and Tretorns;
  • Hair smothered with Aquanet;
  • Embarrassing naked baby pictures;
  • Crushing on Tori Spelling.

Thank God for growth, right.
