THE BEST PANCAKE

Aunt Jemima is the best pancake the honeyspot has ever tasted! Perfect for the lazy ass husband like me! => We discovered this product when we went shopping at Geant Supermaket a year ago. The name had a recall to it. I probably heard it from my cousin Geoff or my friend Sarah. And then when I read "just add water" I told myself that this is it! The only problem that I encountered was, after adding water it looked like a sticky substance... it looked nothing like the one on the box! Aha! Thats the time when it occured to me that it needs to be cooked. Talino no? After cooking we tasted the fluffiest and the tastiest pancake we ever had! Sarap!

This is one of the few products that I like at Geant. I hope that when we come back there will be a fresh supply of the long awaited ice cream "Ben and Jerry's". Siguro kaya wala silang maibigay sa akin nung una kasi I was asking for a "Tom and Jerry's ice cream". Nyee!

SMALLVILLE


Why are most superheroes sterile and frigid? Is it because they wear tight-stretchy-pants? Or is it because they wear their underwear on top of it? I can only speculate for now.

One thing I know is that I hate watching "Smallville". I've seen the show a couple of times because I wanted to know how different the story line goes from the original Superman. But to my dismay, I found that the show lacks substance. I'm a Superman fan, but I hated the fact that Jerry Siegel turned a superhuman into a shmuck when he is not wearing his costume. He always manages to keep himself out of the limelight for some reason. He avoids direct confrontation, romance, sex, and always keeps himself on a safe distance. If he was real I probably wouldn't like Clark Kent. He is too good for a person, always self-righteous and tries to make himself weak when he is not. To top it off, why are superheroes super jinx? Remember the case of Spiderman?

It would have been a good show to tell you the truth. The only thing that I like about Smallville is Kristin Kreuk! She is super cute! Now why would Clarke Kent pass on a girl like this? Is there something wrong with his mojo? I would like to think that he is just being careful because he might break Lana Lang (is she the same as Lois Lane?) from his super strength. Overall, Smallville is not my favorite show…not until Clark Kent decides to take control of his life. We are in a generation based in reality...so why not put some of it in a fictional charactes life?

FRIENDS

I have been watching Friends reruns on channel ONE and MBC 4 for more than a year now. Both stations show the same sitcom on different time slots and different seasons too. But there is only one thing I notice on every episode, you can almost see Jennifer Aniston's nipple every time! If this is the producers sick idea of keeping the ratings up, then it definitely worked. But nipple or no nipple, Friends will always be on my list of great shows to watch. It never fails to make me laugh.

AUBREY


A picture can be interpreted in a lot of ways, like the one that I took last night at the Bahrain Mall. There were circus professionals who delighted people with their display of talent, but this one amazed me....Lets try and analyze this picture.
*******
A child was mesmerized by the size of the couple. He is probably wondering if he will grow up to be as tall as them. The child got scared and peed on the floor...
******

The couples parents made them eat a lot of Star Margarine when they were kids. And as a result, they grew up be freaks without a fashion sense. Only Boy Abunda can get away with this crappy attire!
******

Long legs? I wonder what else is long with them? =>
******

I grew up with 80's music, and they actually made me think of the Spandau Ballet's song "Gold"!
******

Everybody in the background doesn't seem to care about these gigantic couple. Probably too busy thinking about Eid (end of Ramadan).
******

According to the US survey about men and sex, Men tend to think about sex every minute. Hmmm...must be amazing to watch them make out and perform sex! bwahahahahahaa!
******

The ostrich feathers that they carry compliments their height!
******

It's almost 2:00 am, and I should stop thinking about these guys. For me they are just too weird to me remembered.

BIRYANI BLUES

In the middle east, one of the most disgusting thing that you can tell a Pinoy aside from telling him "you're mom is a whore" (pu...bleep! bleep!), is that you like Indian food (lets not give credit to the Arabs by calling it Arabic food ok? click on the links to know the difference.). But then again why not? Indian food is full of aromatic spices, the ones that we are not accustomed to. Well, curry is not on my list since we've grown familiar with this spice.

A week ago, I had a craving for this kind of food...(P........!!! magkamatayan na kapag bukas may nang-alaska sa akin ha?!). Huh??? I can't explain it man....Maybe because there was one time, about four years ago when I had to do overtime at work, and there isn't any food around except Burgerland BDF. They used to serve luch there. There was also this nice Pinoy guy who gave me a taste of Mutton Masala. He said that this is the only thing that he has that taste a little like pinoy food. All the rest taste like shit! (joke!) And so I tried...mmmm...taste like Mechado with curry! Bingo! Lunch at last! But at that time I can only eat a small portion of it, because I knew that the soft yummy thing inside my mouth is mutton. Overtime became a lifestyle for me from then on, and Masala has been a stapple every now and then. (huh?)

So thats my story...Indian food is not bad at all. It just takes a little getting used too. I know for a fact that the Powerpuff Girls are made of it. "Sugar and Spice (curry to! pusta?!!) and everything nice".

JACKED-UP-CAR-STEREO

Right now I found time to back up my massive mp3 library. In a span of 4 years I managed to come up with a large collection of my favorite songs. And most of it are downloaded from the internet...I'm an mp3 junkie! I like the feel of finding the nicest songs on the internet in their highest quality. Wala lang...I just find it amusing to get free songs. I never bought a single original audio CD since then.

During the days when mp3 players are still expensive and new, I bought myself a Creative mp3 player...yung 32Mb pa yun. The shit cost me a lot of money, but it served its purpose. Now, I learned my lesson about digital music and storage, thats why I only burn my mp3's on CD's. It's cheaper and safer!

Thanks to Jan for the car stereo adaptor. Now I don't have to buy a new stereo for the car. I just plug in my CD/MP3 walkman in and voila! I got a jukebox ready to play music. And the original speakers that I got from my honda ain't that bad too! Thats why nowadays I drive as slow as I can so that I can savor the music.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY HONEYSPOT

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY HONEYSPOT!!!

I am proud that in a span of one year I got to make 3,700 visitors read my thoughts. Well, it’s probably more than that because our counter was installed maybe 3 months from October. But nevertheless, “The Honeyspot” had been an inspiration for some of my friends to follow the road to blog.

I have learned a lot of things from this blog. I have me a lot of friends who constantly made it a point to open this site everytime that they open their computers! Thanks to you all! Keep reading our entries.

Please visit the links below. Yan ang mga inspiration ko besides my wife and little baby Diego.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANNALYNE!!! Ganda ng pagka-edit ko ha! Anyways, hope you like it. Pwede mong ipadevelop yan. - From ate and kuya of the honeyspot.

RECAP OF THE WEEK

I'm sorry bloggers for I have sinned. Its been a week since my last blog.

We've been so busy these past weeks. Aside from our Queen Bee getting sick 3 times in the last two months, we were also busy with other stuff. One of which was to participate in the "Medical Mission 2", sponsored by the Tau Gamma Phi and O.W.W.A. Bahrain.

Overall, it was the best! We get to spend time with our colleagues and friends. It was probably the first time that we mixed buisness with pleasure. And to top it all, we helped our fellow OFW's who needed the basic medical service. And its all for free!

Carlo Casal, RN who is the president of the Tau Gamma Phi Bahrain Chapter gave awarm speech that day. He explained the need of the OFW for medical attention as well as the OFW's need for the company of his fellow Pinoy. He said that some of the people who came, did not need medical attention, they just needed to be around Pinoy's. I had patients who came to me saying that. They were overwhelmed with the gathering of Pinoy's in one spot. And in a way, just being there made everyone feel at home. I can totally comprehend. Cause right now I'm stuggling from a bout of home sickness.

Many thanks to the people who made the "Medical Mission 2" a great success! 154 patients in a span of 6 hours while having fun is good. Oh! You should have heard my wife laugh so hard that day! I would like to thank Gulf Daily News, Bahrain Tribune and Abante Middle East for the pictures (OO! Lahat ng diaryo andun ang mrs ko! Di ko nga rin alam kung bakit e.) Many thanks to Kuya Bong Belvis, Carlo and Dr. Ivan for inviting us and sharing the nice experience to us. We are glad to be of service. Next time po ulit!

MABUHAY ANG MGA OFW AT, ANG SAMBAYANANG FILIPINO!!!

DEAR ED

Dear Ed,

Wazzup????

First of all, nice car pare! Feeling ko ako si Vin Diesel ng sumakay ako dun. Lalagyan mo ban g hydraulics yun para tumalon-talon?

Oo nga pala pare, naisip kita mga ilang linggo na. Kapag ikinasal ka na ano nga pala ang ipapalit mo sa pangalan mo? Dapat cool muslim name para outstanding ka! May mga name suggestions ako para sa iyo. Sana ay magustuhan mo para may mapili ka.

1. Mohammad Ali – Ito pare for sure matatakot sila sa iyo. Pangalan pa lang astig na kasi malufet na boxingero ito. Maganda ito para kapag darating ka na puede akong sumigaw ng “The Champ is here!” kaya lang kung sa Pinas ko isisigaw iyon ay baka ang akalain nila ikaw yung mascot ng Jollibee na si Mr. Champ.

2. Karim Abdul Jabbar – Isa pa ito sa favorite ko. Di ko nga alam na muslim name ito nung bata ako e. Yun nga lang, baka macriticize ka sa height mo…

3. Haji – Ito ang bagay para sa iyo. Pangalan pa lang kilabot na. Kapag tinawag kitang Hajji ang iisipin nila isa kang “kilabot ng mga kolehiyala”! Ang guapo ng dating pre!

4. Abdul – Ito daw ang short-cut ng Abdulla sa Arabic. Kaya lang medyo bastos kapag sinabi ng mga kano na cool ka. “Abdul-the-cool”! Hehehe!

5. Al Fakher – ito naman pangalan pa lang playboy na playboy ang dating mo! Kapag tinawag ka mag-reply ka agad ng “Al Fak yhuu too!” hehehe!

6. Al Manure – Kung pipili ka paki-huli na lamang ito kasi parang amoy kasilyas ang dating. Wala lang, nabasa ko kasi ito sa may restaurant malapit sa Central Market.

Yan na lang muna, kasi nakalimutan ko ang iba. Ihahabol ko na lang kapag naalala ko. Pero kahit ano pa ang ipalit mo sa pangalan mo, you will still be Ed to me.


From your future chicken shit cleaner,

Kumander Robot
