Well put. But "locking" me in to the "best thing I could do" is not at all accurate. I could have just let it lie there and hope that nobody else sees. Or, I could have concocted a brilliant come-back with deflectionary diversion ala Trump. I could have used a barrage of "is that so's, then if so, then how comes..."
Setting something into stone does have its limits - but you forego character, you forego weakness, you forego context, you forego intention, you forego circumstances that are not encapsulated in the moment prior to pressing "post".
That said, it is what it is. You may consider it vapid - or you may consider it a matter of public interest.
You may consider it insipid, or uninspired, but yet TV shows have been made about it . Lifestyles of the rich and famous, Crazy Rich Asians, etc. - the whole of civilization is premised on desiring, what one will never get. Or even Brewster's billions.
If an average American for instance, has an outstanding debt of $20,000, then $978,000,000 could potentially make life a little bearable for 48,900 individuals. There's something about big numbers that strikes the imagination. Before all of these, I am the author of a blog post that garnered me half a million views - in 2006 numbers, for some research I did wherein the keyword was "How much money does Bill Gates have?"
Back then, he was the only tech person worthy of note - and since then, my blog forgotten but the likes of Mashable, Forbes - have condensed, straightened and penned some work of a similar nature which leads us to the Forbes list of wealthiest individuals wherein - a crowd darling, Elon Musk, I believe, still ranks as number one.

So the Public will know:-
In a recent interview by Ted Failon, the explanation of COMELEC Chairman George Garcia on why thousands of VCMs used in the 2022 Elections only had one IP Address, was not only confusing, but outright deceptive and false. He started with saying that it was not one IP Address “Hindi lang siyang iisang IP (It's not just one IP)”, and ended up with “.. noong 2010 hanggang 2019 elections ay magkaiba Ang IP Address noon, pero ngayon 2022 election ay mayroon 20,300 sa 107,000 (VCMs) na iisang IP lang dahil Ito ay 4G IP na.” (Back in 2010 to 2019 elections, there were different IP addresses, but now in 2022 elections, there are 20,300 of 107,000 Vote Counting Machines with 1 IP address, because it is of a new technology called 4G IP)
If this opening statement was made in a courtroom, Chairman Garcia would have been charged with PERJURY!
But in the court of public opinion, Garcia not only was being deceptive and illusive, but doesn’t really know what he is talking about. First of all is that there is NO such thing as a “4G IP Address”.
Then he admitted that in all other AES elections from 2010 to 2019, different IP Addresses were used, and that it was only in the 2022 election that a single IP Address was used for 20,300 VCM modems. This is because in ALL past AES elections since 2010, all IP Addresses used were PUBLIC IP ADDRESSES assigned by the Telcos/ISPs. In the 2022 Elections, all IP Addresses used were PRIVATE IP ADDRESSES assigned by an illegal and secret PRIVATE Network created by Smartmatic.

This is the IP address assigned to 98% of the vote counting machines which are spread out across the 7,100+ islands of the archipelagic Philippines. What does this mean? Why now, after a year of the return of the Marcoses.
How could one IP address be the IP address of thousands of VCMs - which are physically separate from each other, with their own modems, and should have gone through different telcos.
More to come.

Avocado ice cream - real one, manually made by my daughters. So satisfying. A blessing

Yes, and can we "control" the speed of the updates? (Like "click for new")
It's been awhile since I wrote something on my old blogspot blog.

Just had that moment.
I'm happy that - our family is complete. We weren't for a while. And my daughter cooked fried avocado. Just a simple dish.
Have you ever had that moment - when you can say that you are 100% happy - and then out of the blue, somebody says something and then it triggers you, you lash out against just practically everyone?
