Last Sunday, San Pablo City together with the entire country and the whole world witnessed professional boxing history when our very own Manny Pacquiao defeated Miguel Cotto via TKO in the 12th round to grab his 7th Division Boxing Title as the new WBO Welterweight Champion.

Celestron Cable, a local cable channel provider here in San Pablo City, aired the fight between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto LIVE to its subscribers. The airing of the fight was sponsored by the City Government of San Pablo City. [...continue reading Celestron Cable Aired Pacquiao-Cotto Fight LIVE]

Goodluck sa mga mag-aapply. Hire niyo ako pagnatanggap kayo ha. Hindi kasi ako pangmanager eh, pangbagger lang sa grocery o department store ang level ko. He he he!

Argh, just realized that I’m no longer even qualified for the bagger position. Overage. Hu hu hu!

I should have posted this yesterday but the constant power fluctuations before and during typhoon Santi kind of messed up my computer’s CMOS settings. Anyway, how was everyone before, during and after the typhoon?

I’m not exactly sure of the time when Typhoon Santi actually passed over San Pablo City but I think electricity went out at around 1:00 am that day and went back around 9:00 am or 10:00 am in the morning (same day). The first thing we did when the electricity was restored was to watch the news on TV. [...continue reading Typhoon Santi, How’s Everyone?]

I was doing my usual site surfing today when I stumbled upon a site that has a page about San Pablo City. There was nothing wrong about the information posted about our city except that it called our city a 2nd Class City. Nothing new about that either since even WikiPilipinas calls our city a 2nd Class City. What caught my attention about the page is the floating text that appears when you move your mouse over some links specially on links about other cities and municipalities in Laguna.

The floating text displays a brief description or info of what the link is about. For example, when you mouse over the link to Calamba the info displayed on the floating text is “Calamba City is a first class city in the province of Laguna, Philippines…”. The link to Santa Rosa City also shows the same info in its floating text. As for the municipalities like Santa Cruz, Los Baños, Cabuyao and San Pedro they all are described as “first class municipalities in the province of Laguna…”.
