That's the price of success, people will try to block you.<BR/>The most effective way to block a blogsite is to find a way of knowing the site owner's access code and change it. It's time for Ellen to change her code to one that is hard to crack.Bernardo F.

This wily, sly, little girl is surely gonna have a bigger palakpak crowd than in last year's SONA. Her favorite butler (borrowing from MB) will have seen to that knowing that she is in bad shot with bishops and a chunk of her erstwhile civil society friends. Headlines would say ""SOO" in this year's SONA"<BR/><BR/>Ugh!HILLBLOGGERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977843513566589811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14974164.post-1153372373535761382006-07-20T13:12:00.000+08:002006-07-20T13:12:00.000+08:00BFR,Yeah I saw it again too.

But what surprised me really is the score because I know that the audience of that program are not the masa like me.<BR/> Mike & Chiz seemed to be talking about 2 different countries. It makes you wonder how Mike could be so out of touch with reality with his amerkana and how the masa can easily identify with Chiz with his tee shirt and jeans and the naturally kantoboy style he sits on the high stool. Chiz is believable when he talks about how the majority of Pilipinos feel because he seems to be in-touch with them, but Mike with his statistics and new definition of unemployment IS SO UNREAL. The score was 14% to 86% for Chiz and that could really reflect the people’s feelings about Gloria.Bernardo F.

The church’s principle of love and charity covers all, no matter who you are or what you are. In fact, Jesus Christ emphasized love and charity even for your enemies including giving shelter and asylum to them. <BR/> The Magdalos came to the priest Tobias for shelter and he was obliged by his cloak to accept them without going into what they have been accused of doing. “Judge not”, Christ said. Gloria might the ruler of the Philippines but only God reigns in the Church. God is the higher authority and priests are accountable to Him and not to Gloria. <BR/> However, Gloria was right because God will pass judgement on her and all men. But the people and history will also judge her separately for her crimes against the people. That is the principle of separation between church and state.Bernardo F.
