A week ago Jepoy informed me that former umobile subscribers can avail of the new Red mobile service(not actually but I’m guessing re-branding). I called their customer service and even if I forgot my umobile number they were able to locate my information(thanks!). I was told that I would get a Red sim with 200 load. Then when I received my sim I was surprised that there was no 200 load card with it. I contacted Jepoy first and he also got the sim the same day that I got it but he has the same sim pack but with 200 load. I called customer service, and he asked for my number and I said that I really can’t remember it. He tried to do verify via my full name. Then he informed me that I was not on the list of people to receive 200 load and he said it was based on usage. This made me confused and the poor agent tried his best to answer my queries eventually I just gave up knowing that the agent was just trying to appease me.

The Great Giana Sisters was a platform game for the Atari and Commodore systems. It was an awesome platform game, but what made it awesome was also its downfall. Why? because of it’s similarity to Nintendo’s most famous game. Despite the threat of lawsuit from nintendo and its eventual withdrawal from the market, the game enjoys a cult following. The game makers even boldly added the tag line:”The brothers are history.”

The odds were against Manny Pacquiao at least when the gambling odds were concerned. They figured Oscar Dela Hoya’s height would have been a factor on the fight. After measuring everything, odds makers forgot to measure something, Manny’s heart.

DS Lovers prepare to buy this! Many of you have been disappointed about the rumors circling around about the fact that the old flashcarts will not be compatible with the new DSi. Well, the rumors are true but don’t fret Acekard has released a flashcart compatible with the new Nintendo DSi. The flashcart has the usual flashcart fare like Auto-DLDI patching, SDHC support, Action Replay Cheats, Trimming, File manager and the like. What I love about the Acekard is the skin options and the awesome UI. via Acekard(link)
One fateful day…. Growing up, we were really not that well off. The few enjoyments that we had was a Sony Trinitron TV that my grandfather gave us. It was not our first TV but it was more awesome than our old one because the old one has a dial to change channels and the Sony has buttons(and the buttons can be programmed)! Can you imagine buttons to change channels?To top it off the darn contraption had a remote control! That was the coolest thing I ever saw(at that time). A week with our trusty telly Since then, never was a day complete without turning the TV on. After school my mother would be hooked with her soaps and movie reruns this was the time my fragile mind would be bombarded by Vilma Santos and Nora Aunor dramas and the cheesiness of the Gabby-Sharon tandem but that was the better part of my TV afternoon. Once the clock strikes 4 my mother would automatically flick the remote and watch the man in the white suit hosting a show filled with adolescent kids. That TV was also our faithful weekend companion, the whole household would spend our Saturday night watching the Swiss-knife wielding McGuyver in his adventures. I can still remember spending many a Saturday mornings watching cartoons(in my opinion shows back then was much much better) like Dino Riders, Tiger Sharks, MASK and a whole lot more. Sundays is the only day that I cannot remember what show was on because of the fact that my parents was the only one who had power over that remote control on that day.
Early Geek Training I don’t know if my mother has techno-phobia or she does it inadvertently but to this day, she hates to figure our how gadgets work(just being a girl i guess). That TV also served as my tool to tech stuff as Mom always ask me to fix the reception on our TV(V-Hold adjustment) or if whenever we ran out of batteries I was her human remote(but to my chagrin the programmable buttons always gets messed up and I had to reprogram it again) and mind you I was not even 10 years old at that time. The Trinitron also was the budding partner of our NES and I had to put the RF switch on the back of the TV and me and my older brothers took turns in letting the fat guy with the moustache jump chasms, jump on mushrooms and climb flagpoles. The Demise of The Trinitron During the early 90s and after several coup attempts on the government, that TV was replaced by a larger television but was still used regularly. It was only when my brother accidentally plugged it in a 220 volt socket directly that it fell into its thinly smoked, burnt death. After, that we didn’t threw it away but was relegated for the stock room for many years until finally it was thrown into the abyss that we call the garbage dump. I had many firsts on that TV and never will I forget the experiences I had with it. It definitely gave significance in my life just like the Sony’s World’s First Motionflow 240Hz LCD TV: Bravia Z450 that can be a lovely replacement for that beloved Sony Trinitron TV.
