Don’t worry about these observations, they’re just the observations of someone who hasn’t slept for weeks. The scary thing is these are true observations! haha

• There is a Chinese cable channel here called Broadway in the Philippines that shows tons of movies 24/7, unedited, but subtitled in Chinese. The cool thing is that there are no commercials or previews of what movie’s gonna be on. It’s like some billionaire Chinese guy just turned on his DVD player and started broadcasting. Movies range from Godfather, Lords of the Ring, Oceans 12, to House of Wax 2005 (yeah, the Paris Hilton stinker.) Anyway, I think they don’t have the "expressed written consent" to broadcast these movies. Why am I sure about that? Because on one occassion, there was this message that flashed across the screen: "This DVD is for promotional purposes only." NOW, I ask you, if this were an official channel, wouldn’t they have "official" movies, not a promotional copy? Hmm… maybe that’s why I sometimes see "Play" on the screens at the beginning. hehe
• TV announcers here puts the wrong emPHAsis on the wrong syLABbles all the time.
• Frodo was in "Deep Impact."
• Godfather 3 still sucks.
• Humidity rises before a big rain.
• Conan O’Brien, very FUNNY guy. I’m so glad they show Late Night over here.
• World Cup baby!!! (Still BORING, but hey, it’s sports!) hehehe
