Just for Ole Time’s Sake

April 10, 2010

Don’t you dare call me “old”. Some music just reminds me of life back in the day, when Filipinos didn’t really have our own pop music, we just listened to good American music.

Fight Club in Memphis, TN

February 2, 2010

Anybody interested in a throwdown in Tennessee? My cousin, who is from Washington, DC., trained in Wing Chun, Kenpo, Boxing and 52 Hands (the REAL 52, available only in East Coast prisons… not the fake-me-out stuff), is organizing a fight club in Memphis.
