Konfabulator

Tuesday, July 26th, 2005

I just discovered Konfabulator and was totally blown away. I’ve been seeing that word all over the net was never interested in looking it up until I read that it’s now for free. Free is good so I grabbed the chance. I’m still playing around with it but it looks really neat. I just hope it doesn’t eat up too much system resources. I’d uninstall it if it crashes this PC.

SONA

Tuesday, July 26th, 2005

Okay. So I’ve read the transcript of PGMA’s speech and watched the replay of the event. I know diddly-squat about parliamentary and federalism which PGMA proposed for the the Philippines to adapt but this one I know. Democracy has stopped working for the Philippines decades ago. Just look at the state this country is in. The poverty is so widespread and is still increasing, candidates play dirty during elections, polititians cannot be trusted anymore and this includes the President, and this list could go on and on. It is easy to be corrupt in the Philippine democracy and as politicians come and go, the decay of the country continues. I think now is the time for the charter change because if not now, then when? This country needs a radical change immediately and just waiting for a calmer period might spoil the urge. You can say that I somehow agree with what the President said because I agree with the need for changes. However, I do not agree with the said accomplishments of the current Presidency because they barely made a ripple.
