Here you go:

1. We are currently working on three identity systems. That's a substantial change from our usual roster of web work; and, it helps me as I find ID work very relaxing.

2. We rode around the hills of Antipolo. It's quite the quad-busting ride, but the suffering is rewarded by a 55 kph plummet down Sumulong Highway. Nothing but love for all the riders up there.

3. I'm at the end of another semester teaching at UA&P. While my hope is that the students actually learned something they will look to use in the near future, I know that I teach in a field that is changing at a breakneck pace. At the end of the day, if I opened a few eyes and minds, I've punched my exit ticket quite satisfied.

4. Another first: I went to get a Thai leg massage. The lady that "worked" me, a largish woman with arms bigger than mine, wheezed and brayed (honest) as she rubbed away on my hirsute appendages. They say bad massages leave you sore. Her work left my legs energized. I'll be visiting that spa again.

5. Over now to fashion: I've been wearing football jerseys often. That must turn people off, huh?

6. An in-law left a map of Makati with me, along with a glow-in-the-dark frisbee, a similar darkness-defying football and two remote control helicopters. Guess which gets the most use.

7. We need a new television set to watch Euro 2008 properly.

8. The latest version of me, 35.x, has a few bugs. Some users have reported crashing will running applications such as "Polite Conversation 2" and "Clubbing 8". I'm reminded that I've removed "Smoking" and "Drinking" from the pre-installed applications, plus the Control Panel needs Administrator access. Meanwhile, most people find the new UI much better than previous versions. I'm preparing an API release soon, which I hope will make for a better, more useful me.

9. I've been wondering about myayala.com: their navigation bar is now "Home", "Bills Payment" and "NSO Certificates". There must be an articulated strategy out there other than be the concierge for the OFW. Wait, that's the strategy right there.

10. I haven't seen a movie at the cinemas in a while. It's the Metrowalk Effect.
