I've been seeing a lot of funny business signs/business names in Parañaque City lately. When I was just new to the area, it was just Robocock, a small chicken feeds store which has since been bulldozed & replaced by an SM Hypermarket. Anyway, am mentioning this because Greek Taverna, the resto I blogged in my previous post is beside a beauty salon cleverly named Starbuhoks, using the same mermaid logo as the coffee chain. (buhok in Filipino is hair) Potential copyright issue here but I don't think a big name like Starbucks should even bother. This salon is ... Continue Reading...

Avid beauty watchers can't wait for the wee hours of Sunday, November 9 (about 2am) when Miss Universe 2013 will be telecast live from Crocus City Hall in Moscow, Russia.

Miriam Quiambao is engaged: real men are pogi?
I've always admired Miriam Quiambao's Filipina beauty, the kind that won her Miss Universe 1999 first runner-up honors. So it surprised me when I learned from my newsfeed that she's engaged again/ slated to be married. The guy: author & speaker Ardy Roberto. Research shows that his company is the one bringing John Maxwell to Manila for those inspirational speaking engagements. (Photo: Facebook) Okay, first impressions stick. Am reminded of "don't judge a book by its cover." Miriam is a beauty queen.... and Mr. Roberto looks like your typical jolly, nice ... Continue Reading...
