711 Charging Stations Battle the Case of the Low Batts

How convenient! Finally somewhere to plug into whenever your cellphone goes low batt.



This is a charging station at a 711 convenience store in Herrera Street, Makati City. Just prepare 5 peso coins!

The charge rates are:
P5 for 10 Minutes Charge time
P10 for 20 minutes
P15 for 30 minutes

You can gorge on ice cream or some 711 goodies while you wait. By goodies, I mean that egg basket near the counter, TrekorTreat.org offers a review of that special 711 Balut.

Manila Underwear is Sexy

Brip ng Bayan: Popular Pinoy Briefs

Soo gone are the days of YC Bikini Briefs, Brute, Warren and Carter...

These briefs are not even man-thongs. These are ultimate statement briefs for the well-hung pinoy (yeah, oxymoronic I know). These white cotton briefs are most likely made in China and imported in shitloads into Divisoria.

Divisoria is the must-go-to wholesale and retail port in the Philippines. The source for every thing in any shape or size, endless consumables for the mass market.


If you love open markets and can skillfully elbow into large crowds, then shopping around Divisoria, Baclaran and Monumento would be a cinch for you. Great bargains are definitely in store. That is, if you like wearing what everyone else on the streets are wearing. Like illegit, but lovable Manny Pacquaio shirts, sandos and shorts.


Pambansang kasuotan: This Manny Pacquaio shirt simply means you're hardcore, very pinoy and patriotic. The perfect shirt to wear around Manila.

Don't cha just wish they would come up with a pair of Hands-Off Manny Pacquiao Briefs before his next fight?

The New Sosyal Media



New media and social media jobs are opening doors for the everyman in Manila. The web has definitely gone jologs en masse. So what's does this mean?

Positively, maybe more kids off the streets, less MMORPG time and real opportunities for anyone to actually make money out of a web addiction. You don't need to have programming skills to get social online or be the next spam king or the next Youtube clown. Even our skilled local 'Platero' can send email and do the rounds of stickycam nowadays! lulz!

Here's a translation of the tabloid ad:
Are you a YouTube addict? Always on FB? Chillin @ Twitter? Do you have a crazy idea about New Media? You're the one we're looking for! Earn from your talents! Apply Now!

The Front Row at Mantrade



I haven't sat on the front seat of a jeepney in quite a long time. Someone always beats me to it, I guess its every commuter's coveted spot. Still I don't like sitting next to the driver (not because he's sweaty or high in shabs) but most passengers expect you to take their coins and give out the change. Yeah, instant konduktor

I prefer sitting next to the door, the hazardous spot, the one the snatchers love so they can speed off with your sunglasses or mobile phone. But what I love about the jeepney's front row is the wind on my face and the bedlam that happens to my hair afterwards. But the traffic kinda kills all this anyway and I'm left staring at signs like "You hold the key" and "Kilala mo ba si PotPot?" (Do you know who Potpot is?)

All the jeepneys come to halt by the Don Bosco area, nothing moves forward. It's about this time I start walking home.

Lokal Relativity: Happy New Year!


A wormhole materializes along Ayala Avenue Makati sucking every willing being into its core towards a baby universe without Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and her ilk.

A grand gift for everyone this 2010.
