DSL is in the house

We just got installed with BayanTel DSL today. And I might say I'm quite impress.
I've got 2 computers, An aging AMD powered desktop and a 4 year old laptop. But they have gone into the web like The Flash and Quicksilver.
I have measured the speed using this site http://speed.skyinet.net and it registered a whooping 1453.04 kbps. But the technician said that it will go down in a few hours or so.

DSL Connection

This comming week, I will have a DSL connection in our house. I realy need this for my work. Since because for the past 2 months, I am only working at home and sending update of my programs to our office in ortigas. At first, the dial-up connection was tolerable. But recently, it has been sooooo sloooow.
At first, I thought it was just my computer. So I reformat it, but with no luck. It was still as slow as a dying snail. That is also the reason I was not updating this blog more frequently.

Hopefully with the connection it would be lighting fast. The sales agent of BayanTel DSL that I have talked(Yes, were BayanTel. No PLDT in our area) to said that its a 384 kbps download. I know in reality that is not the real/actual speed that consummer would have. That would be on a non peak hours only. But I am still hoping it will be so. But come to think about it, an approximate 200 kbps to 250 kbps is already fine with me.

Arsenal-Page 8 of 8

Here is the last page of Arsenal. I am also giving a big though on putting here the first issue of Kalayaan. Since self publishing is a little bit time consumming and not to mention very costly for me. For comments and ideas pls. free to email me at gioparedes@yahoo.com

I hate being sick

For more than a months now, I was diagnosed with Hepatitis B. My whole body and eyes are yellowish. And I am still trying to recover from it. But before that, I was also suffering with a bad case of ulcer. Ulcer plus heap B makes a very bad combination. There were times that I have stayed awake a whole night round until morning because I could not sleep because of my stomach ache.

But I’m a little bit ok now. But my doctor said that I should take a lot of rest. And this means that I cannot go to the 2nd Komikon in UP. What a bummer.

I was fortunate enough to have a very compassionate boss to let me work here at home and send me money on my bank account. This is a very big help, since my medicine, laboratory test and Doctors fee are rely expensive, and I also have to pay the bills on our house and support my wife and kids.

I rely have being sick. :-(

Batista w/ the Phil. Flag

A few days ago, I received an email with a picture of Batista with a Philippine flag on his left shoulder. I't was a respond on a post a few week ago that I was looking for those kind of pictures.
So here they are.

The Crocodile Hunter is Dead

Steve Irwin 44 years of age, the Crocodile Hunter just recently died from a stingray barb to his chest while doing a documentary at the Great Barrier Reef off Australia’s northeast coast.

Witnesses said he apparently died of cardiac arrest after the stingray attack.

Mr. Irwin was on location in the area to film television segments, including material for “The Ocean’s Deadliest.” Witnesses on his boat, Croc One, and on a nearby diving vessel said that when he came close to a stingray, its barb pierced his chest and lodged in his heart.

This is a very tragic news to those people who loved his work. And not to mention his family with two so very young kids.

Boy am I going to miss his Australian Accent.
