Strong Saturdays: Alpha Male of the Week

ITS A TIEEEEE!!

Last Wednesday was the inauguration of the newly elected president of the Philippines, Noynoy Aquino. Yeah, I know, you don't care, but guess who showed up... Chief Justice Renato Corona.


Early this week, he said that he wont be present at the inauguration, for some made up reason. I think he's just bitter, since P-noy refused to recognize Corona's appoinment as the new CJ and opted to take his oath before Associate Justice Morales, and not before him. Thank you for being such an a*s Mr. President.

Anyway, I commend Rennie Boy here for being a role model to all the men out there, being brave, and all that.

Justice Corona shares this prestigious award with Luis Suarez, Uruguay's savior in their recent quarterfinal match against Ghana.

Luis Suarez got a red card for blocking Ghana's game winning goal with his hands, but gave Uruguay a glimmer of hope. Luckily for them, Ghana's Asamoah Gyan went for the crossbar, which eventually led to the downfall of Ghana through penalty kicks.

Kudos to you my friend. You really do know how to sacrifice yourself for your team, and your country. You deserve to be an ALPHA MALE OF THE WEEK. L=Yeah, like it matters. Haha.

Here's a picture of our great handball hero. Hands. Ball. You get it don't you?

Porma Fridays Music Post!


Oh those crazy kids going all nuts on their synthesizers and mash up songs. But really now, its getting old. Lets turn to something more timeless shall we?

Nothing is rawer and manlier than an entire album created with disdain, egotism and of course, bros. Dre. Dre's album The Chronic garnered rave reviews all drooling over Dre's flow, smooth sampling, impossibly cool bass and emotional umph during its 1992 release making it immortal.

Not only does it match up almost perfectly with every work out session you may ever have but it also doubes as a melodized version of the bro code preaching about hos, bros and beyond. (check the songs "B*****s ain't s**t" and "F**k wit Dre day")

Now most if not all of us wont be able to experience what it is to be a hardcore gangstah *tear* but we can all relate to Dr Dre rapping on behalf of men everywhere. Peace

Titillating Thursdays : Toy Story 3


This movie goes way back. With the first movie having been released in 1995, I can't help but reminisce about my childhood when Toy Story 3 came out. Truth is, I practically grew up with this cartoon, noting that I am still young enough to have been able to appreciate all of them. Some people actually appeal that children today are too excited for something that they really didn't grow up with, others who are more possessive would say that this is "our" cartoon. After all, we did grow up as Andy did. What they don't realize is that a cartoon is actually really for everyone of all ages, which is why despite the fact that most adults don't really care about cartoons anymore, they can still be moved by such a movie. What is amazing about this movie is that despite it's craziness and playfulness, it actually sends us a pretty good moral lesson.


Any kid would agree that a story isn't complete without a good moral. However, what's interesting about this is that the moral, isn't really simply thrown in your face. Just as you might have thought that the moral is loving your toys and holding on to what you have, it all suddenly changes and one realizes that sometimes, we have to let things go. It is better after all for us to pass on to others the same things that we have enjoyed so that they too might have a chance to share in such an experience.

In the end, I would have to admit that watching this movie did make me a bit teary-eyed. But I could proudly say that it was worth the tear, after all real men cry too.
