Getting a cue from the Reader’s Digest, this day is kind of slow in the summer. You get no response from Yahoo’s new mail interface. You get kicked out of remithome.com if you log on outside of the US. Watched the movie "10,000 BC" yesterday night which is a cross between Helen of Troy and Apocalypto. And then get ready for a sizzling summer. Unless you are in Baguio which at its hottest temperature at 26 degrees is still tolerable compared to Manila.

Philstar reports:
