7 Reasons Why Manny Pacquiao is Just Way Better Than Floyd Mayweather Jr.

by
If it wasn't for William's "Once There Was a Man Named Manny Pacquiao," I wouldn't have the courage to get out of my closet and defend my country's pride against the inevitable "Dark" wrath of Floyd Mayweather Jr. So, thanks buddy for the eye-opener. Now, let me just do my thing.

I understand that most of the articles here have rather light topics but please allow me to digress for this one because after all, this site has the word ‘Random’ in it.

Dependent Freedom

by
We are always celebrating “Independence” Day — or rather the date we would like to think the Philippines won its independence. I do wonder though why we continue to propagate the notion that we emerged from the year 1898 the winners. Last I heard, winners get to rule. Last I heard, we did not get to rule ourselves since that year until the 4th of July 1946. So which of the two dates then is our real Independence Day? Is it the 12th of June 1898? Or is it the 4th of July 1946?

The answer to those questions does not really matter. With the benefit of hindsight, we can easily see that the decades that followed 1946 were really no different to the decades that followed 1898. There has never been anything about the Philippines that could even remotely be considered “Independent”. For what exactly are Filipinos “independent” from?

Premature Victory: Unjustified

by
“To deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny to him the ordinary amenities of life is worse than starving the body; it is starvation of the soul, the dweller in the body.” -Mahatma Gandhi

Same old faces, same travesties. Same old games, same old promises.
