  • fighting spam. saving the world. dealing with postfix.

    I realized something after the past few days. Amongst the many types of geeks, I’m assuming that the Postfix geek has to be the stressed of all, due to the following facts:

  • The New Year, The Geek, and Coppermine 1.42

    Look, I know its the New Year tonight, but I can’t help being a geek. Yup, after so many years, I’m finally owning up to being one. This means I can add this atop my other nicknames such as world-famous raconteur, high-flying adventurer, swashbuckling debonair man about town, and all sorts of adjectives of the…

  • Tayo’y magsikap upang makamtan natin ang kasaganaan

    I’m not really sure why I chose the above to be my title (the 2nd stanza to Ang Pasko Ay Sumapit in case that sounds familiar). I guess LSS has something to do with, other than being catchy as well.

  • Jingle Bells lang ang pahinga

    The title is inspired by a jeep I occasionally see plying the Ortigas Antipolo route, with a sign at the back that says “Jingle Lang Ang Pahinga”, I’ve obviously changed somewhat to reflect a Holiday theme.
