interesting things on tv part I

semestral break...fun, fun, fun.....

vacation started a few days ago...since then i've seen quite a lot of tv shows ...i've read a lot of news also...and i've seen and read many 'interesting' things already....

1. we hope jocjoc bolante tells the truth...that is coming from someone identified with the opposition...what do you think this person will say if jocjoc says that he really took the money and gave it to gma to be used for the 2004 elections...will this person say 'bravo, thank you for telling the truth' or will he say 'he is lying'... what will he say if jocjoc says that he didn't take the money and it was not used for gma's presidential election bid....will this person say 'bravo, thank you for telling the truth' or will he say 'he is lying'....i don't what he'll say but i think people already have an idea of what they wanna hear...for most, i think, it doesn't really matter if jocjoc tells the truth...i think what matters is that they hear what they wanna hear....

2. sachets...yup that small container that holds small amounts of stuff like shampoo, toothpaste, even soap....i thought those sachets were created so that people can buy things they need in small portions...probably for easier handling...or for 'economic' purposes....they were really designed to contain just small amounts...just enough amounts...but this commercial i saw on tv says 'eto 18 ml yan 10 ml (or 15 ml) lang'.....it was trying to convince people to buy their product coz it contains more for the same price....of course there is sense to what they are promoting...i would opt for something which contains more for the same price...but the thing is, if you really want to have more, why buy products in sachet, why not buy in bottles....if your reason is 'mas mura kasi' i think 'at the end of the day mas mura sa bottle'....before, sachets used to contain 5 ml of shampoo...those were used by frequent who travelers....they're not for daily use....

3. archbishops on gma....i must say it is okay for me for bishops to really think of the general welfare of people.... it is really nice to know that they are involved with the development of people under their care...but what surprised me with the recent statement released by 5 archbishops is that they were very straight forward in telling that we should be prepared for a new government (i'm not very sure if i got what they said correctly so please correct me if i'm wrong, or just pardon me if i'm wrong haha)...to those out there who are learned in politics or the constitution or the law please tell me if they did not go overboard...please tell me if what they said is not seditious (what does it mean anyway haha)....again i don't know ifd what they did is right or wrong...but i just hope they will also be as aggressive in proclaiming the World of the Lord as they are in criticizing the government...coz frankly, i haven't heard them speak about the Gospel or see them promote evangelistic activities on tv or over the radio....or even in tabloids man lang....(baka naman they celebrate tv masses that i was not able to see.. if this is the case, i say, 'i am sorry', pun intended)

i'm sure i'll see more interesting things in the next coming days....so part II to follow
