You're right, Miss Grazie.

It is self-explanatory.

*Does this mean you and me and ms belle should mind our own business?*

I think ok ra man siguro mag kukabildo ta ani kay about love man.  Love gives wings to our hearts.

Mike, very profound imong mga balak. You are such a gifted and beautiful man. 

Ginger told me before about your balak for your Tatay.  I didn't read right away kay mahadlok lagi ko but I finally did.  Nag comment ra ko didto na thread.

C2, we need not seek explanation for feelings of love hahahah mura man na kanta!

I wish I am like you, Ms. C2.  I even read Leo Buscaglia's book about love and stuff but dili makaya.  In the end, magpabilin gihapon akong ka selfish basin i reject ko.  intawon pod!  He was a friend and the more na gaka inlove ko, the more na gapalayo ko.  Isn't that stupid? 

Ug nganong mobukal man ang tubig sa sapa?

I used to love a guy who didn't know my true feelings.  It really hurt but kinsa man tong sala?  Tiaw ba pod ka hadlok if the feeling wasn't the same but at least unta ba, na klaro kon dili ba jud the same.  Karon, ga sige lang ko wonder, what if...

But anyhow, I am happily married and I can't ask for more for a husband - except a little money, maybe? hehehe

Sumpay ko, when you love somebody, it's not for you to keep but for the other person to know and appreciate that he or she is loved.  That's a gift from heart to heart.

ay mas chada jud haze ang hug and little kisses...

lagi, a hug and sweet nothing whisper will do...

mas lami jud kon ang lalaki ug baji mag minahalay lang jud sa tiunay aron walay masakitan kay dulot jud sa kasing-kasing kon sakit tungod sa LOVE.

     Thank you Glen! I hop I have fun on T.B. . 

More questions:

1.  What is the fastest bird on foot?
2.  A heptagon is a shape of how many sides?


I will be right back after the commercials.  This time, grocery shopping!

When I am angry, nah I better not see sa truck of peanuts otherwise I will gobble all!  Joking aside (da tong tinuod oi!), it is really nice to scream and cry and stomp when I am angry.  I had a feeling that if I threw glasses, it would be a big relief but I don't want to regret so I would never dare do that!  I seldom get angry as in angry pero kon masuko ko, mang hagit ko'g sinumbagay hahahaha Ka wa class oi! hehehee

hahahah sige oi, mang harvest sa ko ug tomatoes.  Sus, fertilized ra ba nang garden namo with horse poops...

pssst maring, bilini ko'g ma usa diha! 

hahaha isuga oi!  ako kay nangurog kos kahadlok  basin magka nightmare ko!

But I can play the horse's music man i hope di lang ko ma ig-an ug horse's etats heheheeh (sorry for the unsanitary word)

lagi nah, ayaw tig hibernate2x diha Ginger oi!  Let's have fun and be funny! hehehehe

mao nay ginaingon sa akong mga bugoy na kagupa "Ilara dots!"

naa may eye-catching sa title gud haze! hahahaha

pareho ra ni sa hint#371 ni GEC but words lang ni hahahah. Naa pa toy ingon sa akong wais na lola sa una na, The fish is caught when it open its mouth or sound like that, di kaayo ka kabalo mo translate and neither can I remember it in pure binisaya but kana ang essense sa sayings.

Thanks, N F L, for sharing your interests to us!  I am amazed you want to write a book!  That's awesome.   You seem to be a fun person so I am sure we'll all have fun here in TB!  Funny, I know one person who talks like you but sure you didn't have the same fun-filled interest!

hahahahha I think most of the people here are fair, Haze!  Most of the time, people got toinked for a reason...

I think the die is cast na, no more toinking but as GEC said, makita man gihapon na negative. hahahahah  It bothered me when I got my first toink because I haven't said anything yet and I got toinked but now I am past over it.  I am having fun and knowing very deep people that has become my friends is more important to me. 

Hello, N F L!  Good to have you at this time!

No need to apologize, N F L because it wasn't just you who thought about that.  Yesterday, Ms. C2, Glen and another member was talking about it too.  It didn't bother us anyway because if toinking reflect what we are or how people perceived us, then that's also another form of expression or opinion.  It may be hurting to others who got lots of toink but I got toinked too and that's fine.  I am having fun with my TB Family and that all that matters!  Just take it easy.  As you said, you are just a newbie and I am amazed you know a lot already about us.  Good job, for studying your prospective family! hehehehe Keep thy love flowing, N F L!

You are so beautiful, Maring!  You can really tell na palangga kaayo ka sa imong bana!  Well, he is equally handsome too so patas ra - kamong duha nka hantok!

That's a very clever acronym of your ID, N F L! hahahah Good job!  I also like your motto!  Keep that up! 

Thanks, Dong Enzo for your pahinumdum.  I shall remember that from then on and when I am confronted with situations like before, I will not just count 1 to 1 thousand but I will reread your post.  Yes, we are family!

Good night, Ms. Bambi!

hahahaha na unsa na kini!

You are absolutely right, Ms. C2!  I need not say anything more!

N F L, I read in another thread you mentioned about people's attitude here drastically changed the moment Mike came back or words to that effect.  I didn't know you are a good attitude reader and you can do that in a few hours of reading our posts.  You must be a precious person to have that talent.

Manang Corazon is so beautiful, MIke!  Thanks for introducing her to us!  And you both were wearing shirts of my favorite color!

I have been thinking about this old saying that I came across in one of the articles I read today.  I don't know what got me to keep thinking about this.  I guess I am confused by the meaning of this saying.  I kind of have a feeling but it's not quite hitting the nail right on head, so to speak.
 



Don't examine a gift too closely! You can tell a horse’s age by looking at its teeth, which is why people 'looked a horse in the mouth'.

Human Error Caused Ship-Bridge Collision

Coast Guard Criticized on Oil Spill

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- A preliminary investigation found human error caused a cargo ship to crash into the Bay Bridge, leading to San Francisco Bay's worst oil spill in nearly two decades, the U.S. Coast Guard said Saturday as rescue teams raced to save hundreds of seabirds.

"There were skilled enough individuals on board this ship. They didn't carry out their missions correctly," said Rear Adm. Craig Bone, the Coast Guard's top official in California.

Coast Guard officials declined to lay blame on any specific individual or provide further detail on the mistakes that were made during midweek crash.

Investigators were focusing on issues surrounding the ship's official protocol for safely navigating out of the bay, including possible communication problems between the ship's crew, the pilot guiding the vessel and the Vessel Traffic Service, the Coast Guard station that monitors the bay's shipping traffic.

Coast Guard Cmdr. Andrew Wood said "the mere fact that they collided with a fixed object" offered clear evidence that a communication problem had occurred.

But a language barrier between the vessel's pilot, Capt. John Cota, and the ship's all-Chinese crew was not likely a factor in the crash, since ship's captain and officers are required to speak English, officials said.

Cota, who is American, is among a group of specially trained pilots who are not members of a ship's crew but typically come on board to maneuver large cargo vessels in San Francisco Bay.

The Cosco Busan was headed out of the bay when it sideswiped a support on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge Wednesday morning, leaving a gash nearly 100 feet long on the side of the 926-foot vessel. The crash ruptured two fuel tanks, which leaked about 58,000 gallons of heavy bunker fuel into the bay.

Bone declined to comment on a report that the Coast Guard had warned the pilot about the ship's course shortly before the crash.

John Meadows, the lawyer for the ship's pilot, told The San Francisco Chronicle that the nearby Coast Guard facility radioed Cota and questioned his bearings. The pilot immediately responded by saying the ship's instruments showed he was on the correct heading, Meadows told the newspaper.

Bone acknowledged that there were communications between the ship and the Coast Guard's traffic facility before the collision. He said the communications involved the ship's course and speed but declined to comment further on the nature of the exchange.

On Saturday, the Coast Guard increased the number of ships to 20 from 11 the previous day to work on skimming the oil from the bay, said Petty Officer Sherri Eng. Nearly 20,000 gallons of oily liquid had been sucked up by Saturday morning, according to figures released by the Coast Guard.

About 770 workers joined cleanup crews on the water and along beaches to mop up the damage - a job that is expected to last weeks or possibly months.

Authorities said most of the spilled oil will never be captured and eventually will dissolve into the water. Concentrated globules could remain for months and cause problems for seabirds.

At least 60 birds were found dead while 200 live birds were recovered and sent to a rehabilitation center in Solano County.

State wildlife officials said they have received hundreds of reports of oiled birds found on Bay area beaches, two dozen of which were closed after tides carried the oil under the Golden Gate Bridge and into the Pacific Ocean.

Most of the injured birds are surf scoters, a duck-like species that lives on the water's surface and dives for fish. When oil gets on their feathers, it disrupts their waterproofing system and ability to stay warm, forcing them on shore where they are at risk of starvation.

"Oil and feathers don't mix," said Yvonne Addassi, a wildlife biologist with the state Department of Fish and Game. "We're in a time crunch. The birds can only stayed oiled for so long before they can no longer be rehabilitated."

Officials warned untrained volunteers to stay away from the oiled birds to avoid chasing them back into the water.

Fish and Game officials said the fuel generally stays on the water's surface, and they had not seen any evidence that fish have been harmed - though they are concerned that the spill could affect bay herring that spawn at this time of year.

Bay Area fisherman want the governor to officially close the commercial and sport crabbing seasons on the California coast from Point Arena to the Mexican border until the waters are deemed safe, said Larry Collins, vice president of the Crab Boat Owners Association.

The sports season started on Nov. 3 and the commercial season was slated to start Nov. 15.

The crabbers said the oil spill does not harm the crustaceans until they're transferred to the live tanks in which are housed after being caught.Collins said crabs brought in by some fisherman on Saturday were dead on arrival.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger declared a state of emergency Friday after meeting with state, federal and local officials overseeing the cleanup. The proclamation makes additional state personnel, funding and equipment available.

At least Kathie Monroe didn't vote either Republican opponent Tom Sells!

It was okay, Kyle!  No biggie!  Your Tita Grace is getting old and sleepy now so until tomorrow, my dear!  Good night and God bless!  Sleep good!

hahahhaha pastilan ga jud nimo GEC!

Wow, you got perfect score, Kyle!  (You meant, mercury in number 1, right? I will award you with a bagful of binangkal! hahahha

Next questions will be after the commercials! hahahah that's sleep in our thread!

"It is a great thing to be faithful in little things."

I agree.  I can't see how one can be faithful to bigger things and not in little things.  These little things are the foundation of our belief, of our faith to bigger things which is to seek God's mercy and grace.

You are welcome, Kyle!  You can answer the questions tomorrow because it seems like it's past your bedtime already. Let's keep your identity a secret, ok? hahahha

Smiffytheninja is Ate Smiff! hahahaha

It's our pleasure to have you back, Mike!

Hala, I think there's another thread welcoming Brownman but just the same, Welcome to TB, Brownman!

Ok, more questions:

1. What planet is closest to the sun?
2. Who was the first president of the United States?
3. Inca civilizations were concentrated on what continent?

Don't worry, Kyle, your secret will remain a secret until you say so!   For a young boy like you, you can call me Tita Grazie. hehehe  I will to see you in your avatar or Mom can send me your picture. hehehe

Precious, I think you are right.  People should be taught how to react in times of calamities like earthquake, fire, etc.  I didn't remember having to go through drill in our schools when I was still studying in Bohol.

Kujawa gud na Gem oi, Banggi-itan man jud! hahaah dugang na sa atong vocabulary like kukabildo?

I hope so, Ms. C2!  I can see one coming...

hahahha Ms. C2, I am now pregnant with imagination kon kinsa ni si Balong and GEC!

Babe, thanks for posting new recipe.  Would you not invite your Ate C2 to come to Sacramento?  We'll take her to Asian Seafood Buffet!

Ms. C2, we went to Asian Seafood Buffet two weeks ago and I ate tons and tons of oyster, crabs, shrimps, sushi, etc!

Wow, your husband like curry-flavored food?  That's really good huh?  I bet it was yummy! 

apparently, Admin heard you guys kay na change na ang toink to good and pakpak to Excellent! 

Pa approve sa ta ni GEC kon tama ta na si Balong!  Basin si GEC ug Balong is one and the same? hahahah nag jama-jama nako!

I heard that in the evening news tonight, C2!  Parents should be more careful na jud what toys to give to their kids.  In our time, we didn't have all these toys.  We had takyang, tago-tago, dagan-dagan (hangtud mga panggos!), balay-balay, ug uban pa.  ay naa pa diay tong syato kadto bitaw singgit ug hatuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum!

And what about the Halo-halo, Babe?

So that's gonna be the name na, Ms. C2?  Thanks for the name. lol  Basta, even if you don't have the ala-salsa macerated fruits, ok na kaayo kadto lang crunchy wonton.  Pareho sa tinapay sa among great grandmother, Lola Pinay, and great grand aunts, Papay and Memang.

Yehey, it's Balong-Ginger-Sigbin love triangle!!!  But now, the next question is, WHO IS BALONG? Hay naku, we are running in circle!

Pwede pod na bayong-bayong, Mike ba?  Anyhow, thanks a lot for gathering us all in TB! 

May Lola Euphemia Villamor rest in peace.  Condolence to her family.

Mike, sa Anda diay ang epicenter?  At that time you were not in Anda, right?

Welcome back, Mike.  Just take it easy.  I may not be able to delve the pain and loneliness you feel right now, even if I feel I know, but just know that you got a family in us.

hahahahha so the love triang is balong, ginger and sigbin?!?!  daw beh, problema na pod kinsa ni si balong!

Mike oi, ning duyog ko karon hilak nimo!  Your avatar is making me cry some more.  Take it easy, young man!  You are such a good man and son!  It's ok to cry kay maka relieve man pod na sa iyang gibati.

Daw beh Glen, kinsa man nang 3 ug 1?  hahahahah gikabuangan lang ta GEC ani oi! basin ma over exercise ning atong brain maka dali daw ni ug dementia hahahah

yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck! hahahaha

kon naay mo reklamo, within topic pa bya ni ha kay we are talking about "unsanitary" hahahaha

I made my version of samosa earlier.  I had a few wonton wrappers left so I tried to do something about it.  The first batch was trashed kay nasunog beyond recognition kay ning anhi pa man ko computer nag TB.  So as requested by C2, I am posting this simple "healthy" dessert here.  I don't have a name yet so you may suggest a name for this crunchy delight.

The crunch:

wonton wrappers
brown sugar
sesame seeds

The macerated fruit berries (or any of your favorite fruit)

3 cups fruits
1/2 cup sugar
a pinch of salt
1 teaspoon orange or lemon zest
2 tablespoon lemon and or orange juice (you can also use liqueur like grand marnier)

To macerate, clean and slice fruits. In a glass bowl, place the fruits and the rest of the ingredients.  Lightly toss and let it stand in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes while you prepare the crunchy wonton wrappers.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix equal parts of brown sugar and sesame seeds. 

In a cookie sheet, lay flat the wonton wrappers.  You don't have to give space in between wonton wrappers as you do when baking cookies because wonton is not going to expand anymore.  Brush with melted butter and generously sprinkle the top with the mixture of brown sugar and sesame seeds. 

Bake at a preheated oven for about 2 to 3 minutes or until just golden brown.  I suggest you watch carefully while baking - no TB for awhile. 

Eat while wonton is still warm and crunchy with or without the macerated fruits like you eat chips with salsa.  Enjoy!

Hala, mag post man diay ko dapat empanada ba? hehehhe  naa man sa google na Cel so I will just share my empanada ala samosa.

Vegetable filling:

olive oil
diced onions, garlic and bell pepper
finely cubed vegetables like potatoes, carrots, fennel or celery (but my favorite is fennel bulb), water chestnut
peas
salt and pepper to taste.  you may also add vege or chicken cube.  (I use Herb*ox coz there's no msg)
Square pasta wraps (better known as wonton wrapper)
Egg wash (beaten egg with a little water)


Here's how you do it:

Saute onion and garlic until translucent.  Add bell peppers. Season with salt and pepper. add the cubed vegetables and season again with salt and pepper and the chicken or vegetable cube.  (we are layering the flavor here). Cook until just tender but still al dente. Let cool for awhile.

In the middle of the wrapper, put a spoonful of filling.  Moisten the edges of the wrapper with egg wash and fold in half to form a triangle and crimped the wrapper either by just pinching or using fork.  You can either fry or bake in 350 degress F oven.


Note:  If you prefer the filling to be with meat, just add ground turkey or any other meat to your liking right before you add the vegetables.

I suggest that you fry nlang this one.  Use lang olive oil or canola oil para healthier.  Mas crunchy man gud kong gi fry.

hahahah bantay lang na si GEC hatag-hatagan pa tag hint na 371 unsyalan kaha na tawon!

yuman nko panihapon, ms c2! hahahah
