Bric-a-brac

Balladeers Rex Smith and Peter Cetera from the eighties are in the country to do a series of concerts. My gad, we are officially the has-been capital of the world. Singers who specialize in syrupy, schmaltzy music and who no longer have careers to speak of in the US still find a market in the Philippines.

Why is it that when singers are interviewed on TV, reporters always ask them to sing a line or two?

People keep on commenting that I have gotten fat. I now jog everyday in Marikina in preparation for the 15K this mid-Feb... and to shed off the unsightly pounds.

My left shoulder still bothers me. Jun and Jen advised me to get a massage, preferably from those offering "real" massages. I had one yesterday outside the Marikina Sports complex. You sit with your arms straddled over the monoblock chair. The masseur was a Manong who claimed he trained with TESDA.
