Hugh Jackman Interrupts Broadway Show for Cellphone Offender

Hugh Jackman interrupted their Broadway show A Steady Rain in Wednesday when a cellphone rings during a tense moment of the play.

He simply said in character, “You want to get that?” But then, the phone owner might be already too embarrassed to answer so when the ringing went on . He added, “Grab your phone, it doesn't matter”. “Come on, just turn it off ... we can wait. Just get the phone. Don’t be embarrassed. Just grab it,” he continues. But then it stopped after several rings.

Jackman might be a little bit pissed though he was still courteous. Some people are just too inconsiderate and stubborn to spoil situations such as this.It is not so hard to turn one's cellphone off or just simply put it on silent.

People of the Philippines vs Jacque Bermejo

I received an email from a colleague entitled Jacque Bermejo. Who is she? I've been hearing this name since yesterday and I thought she was just another name connected to typhoon Ondoy. Well, I was right. She is indeed connected. And here's how: Jacque Bermejo is an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) who lives in Dubai. Her name became famous after a Jacque Bermejo insensitively comments on Facebook about the victims of the typhoon.

She writes: "buti n lng am hir in dubai! maybe so many sinners back der! so yeah deserving what happened!"
: "cuz of u dnt understand!!!judge me sige!!! kya ala kayong asenso.even nature now is making statement big time!!!"


Here are some of the images attached in the mail.




I don't know what to believe because it would really be so mean and careless of her to post such a comment. But who really knows? She might just be another victim of fraud.

Anyway, this post is not to criticize her because I don't even know if this is true.

You’ve got a very important date!

I have been browsing the net for info’s about the Alice in Wonderland movie. Why, I’ve been a fan of Alice since I was a kid! This movie, I learned, is a reunion of the legendary characters, 19-year-old Alice, the Red Queen, the White Queen, the Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar, Tweedledee and Tweedledum to name a few. Harry Potter’s Bellatrix Lestrange is going to be Alice’s Red Queen. Another HP’s, Professor Snape is the Catterpillar. The “Hotness” Jack Sparrow is the silly Mad Hatter while Princess Mia is a queen (The White Queen) this time. I bet this is going to be an addition to all Tim Burton’s hits.

Now let's get ready to fall through the rabbit hole with Alice .

Metro Manila Flooding

Updated: September 28, 2009

Incessant downpours due to typhoon Ondoy in Metro Manila wrought many Filipino people homeless. Flash floods killed many people and destroyed million-peso worth of properties.

Yesterday, I was supposed to go to Cavite but unfortunately, I got stranded and had no choice but to stay. My KR and I even had to walk through the knee-level flood just to get to the only available store! On the way, we saw the impact of the situation. Most major roads were unpassable due to the flood and stranded cars. Ironically, people were dancing under the rain while drinking beer and children were playing and swimming on the flood! We even passed through street full of floating garbages. I even saw a sanitary napkin hovering around my knees! Ewww! I just hope that tomorrow the sun shines again so the road will be cleared out of flood.

I will be uploading some photos of the flood I took last night tomorrow.

Here are some of the
photos I took last Saturday night in Makati. There were no post lamps so it's a little bit dark.
