Head over to Pen’s blog and answer her Hollywood crossword puzzle.
Birthday nga pala ni Anne.
Hehe.
Etong araw na ito dapat kami nag-Villa Escudero kasama sila. Kaso na-unsyami dahil kay maan.
Naalala ko lang na bday ni anne dahil sa blog ni Jie. Buti nakita ko sa isang comment sa blog nya. 
Hey Anne, Happy B! Treat naman dyan!
USA Today has posted an article with a photo of Brandon Routh in the new Superman costume for “Superman Returns”.
The look of Superman literally rests on the broad and buff shoulders of newcomer Brandon Routh.
This first look at Superman Returns - due in theaters in June 2006 - shows that the skin-tight costume stretches over only the actor’s muscles and frame, without the augmented armored pecs or abs of recent movie superheroes.
Director Bryan Singer famously changed the fluorescent spandex suits of the X-Men into dark, leather-like uniforms for those movies - both of them smashes that sold more than $364 million in tickets. But on Superman Returns, he says, he wanted “something classic.”
Tinkering too much with a hero’s suit can aggravate traditionalist comic fans, who grumbled that Jennifer Garner’s Elektra wasn’t wearing her midriff-baring red suit in Daredevil or that Batman’s armor had nipples in Batman Forever. They aren’t likely to have much to carp about with Superman Returns.
Instead of reinventing the character’s appearance, Singer - via e-mail from Australia, where he’s shooting the film - says he wanted to remain faithful to the previous incarnations of Superman, from the Max Fleischer cartoons of the 1940s to the black-and-white George Reeves TV show to the Christopher Reeve movies of the 1970s and ’80s.
Singer decided to keep the cape, the blue body suit, the red tights - even the V-cut opening of Superman’s boots.
But Superman Returns makes a few subtle changes to the suit:
- The character’s S insignia is slightly smaller and higher on his chest, and instead of being painted on, it’s more of a three-dimensional plate.
- The insignia is added to Superman’s belt buckle.
- Costume designer Louise Mingenbach preserved the blue, red and yellow motif, but the shades are slightly darker than the bright primary colors of the comics. Superman’s yellow belt is more golden, and his cape is a deep scarlet.
The key to filling it out, however, depends entirely on the physique of Routh, 25, the Iowa native who was briefly on the soap opera One Life to Live in 2001. Singer says the Superman costume wasn’t complete without Routh.
“I always had the general idea of the suit. However, when the conceptual art was evolving around the same time that I cast Brandon, I privately had paintings rendered with Brandon’s face, which certainly brought it to life.”
Superman’s body is the key to his power, Singer says.
“With X-Men, although they had extraordinary powers, they also had physical weaknesses,” he says. “The suits were for protection as well as costume. Superman is the Man of Steel. Bullets bounce off him, not his suit.”
What does the movie’s costume say about this Superman’s personality?
“He’s not afraid,” Singer says.
We were in Outback last Friday night. We = Pen + AJ & Jie + Donnah.
I guess it’s official that Jie’s on a mission. It’s in his blog somewhere. I distinctly recall the first time me & Pen met Anne. I still have the pictures during that CK treat from Jie. Too bad we were caught unprepared when we met Donnah. The mighty digicam is somewhere stuck in my room that time. I can’t be carrying the bulky digicam anywhere I go. Sayang.
We had a sumptuous serving of steaks, a mountain of fries and a seafood pasta. It was yummy and pricey. Good thing that Pen still has her discount card with her which gave us 20% discount. Me and Jie must have eaten much of the food on the table as the two girls just took some little bites. I even had a baon when we got out.

You are the fox. - I believe this refers to my favorite browser Mozilla Firefox. 
You once ran wild, but you allowed one true friend to tame you, and now that your friend has gone, you miss him with all you have. - Hmmm. I can’t pinpoint someone who tamed me and is gone now.
You are very pretty to look at, and you find the world of men to be loud and disturbing. You have many lessons of great importance to give to those who can tame you. - sounds gay to me. haha
You are unique in all the world. - unique daw ako.
Man, I wonder if these internet quizzes really tell something about yourself.

Bogus blogs snare fresh victims
Cyber criminals are starting to use fake blogs to snare new victims.The bogus web journals are being used as traps that infect visitor’s machines with keylogging software or viruses.
Filtering firm Websense said it had found hundreds of bogus blogs baited with all kinds of malicious software to snare the unwary.
Websense warned that the baited blogs could get past traditional security measures that try to protect people from malicious programs.
Just be wary when you are blog hopping and consantly puts your email address and *password* to be able to comment. Scammers grab these passwords and will jump in to your accounts. This is especially true if you are using the same password all over the internet.
This is not to brush off people commenting to blog sites. The thing is, identities and passwords are easily stolen when you are gullible enough to give sensitive informations.
Be sure to read through to the bottom…
- Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found
- hard at work in his cubicle. Bob works independently, without
- wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never
- thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always
- finishes given assignments on time. Often he takes extended
- measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee
- breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no
- vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
- knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be
- classed as a high-caliber employee, the type which cannot be
- dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Bob be
- promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
- executed as soon as possible.
Addendum:
That idiot was standing over my shoulder while I wrote the report sent to you earlier today. Kindly re-read only the odd numbered lines.
Here are two pics during our cocomangas’ drink:
That’s the Illusion Shaker drink I drowned there. I gulped down two of that.
