aT 56 ...

... i think it is time to evaluate my life health wise after a nasty accident that happened almost a month ago (19oct08) on a bicycle ride along niles canyon road with my cycling friends. i have fractured my pelvic from the fall which required a major surgery (open reduction internal fixation). how will it affect my life physically and mentally i have yet to access. I was informed that there is a possibility that some day i might need another surgery for a hip transplant. i wonder if it can be prevented? cycling is in my blood but is it still safe for me to continue riding? can cycling help prevent any future hip transplant, if so, is it worth the risk of getting to another accident? so many questions i need answers. what i need now is a professional advice from my doctor.rqt

its been a while since my last posted i have been too busy with my other weblog about cycling which was so good. I have created an interactive weblog with my cycling friends from siclista california. They are co-author which means they can publish their own post on the same site. masaya ! we post ride schedules, events photos, infos, comments atbp.rqt

Here is my email to my 14 year old daughter :

Anak,

How are you? How is school ? Malapit na x'mas break mo?
Sulat ka naman Anak, Anything new? Ano na ginagawa mo?
Padala ko sa iyo siguro before Xmas diyan na yon. Love you.

Love Always,

Dad.

And here is her reply. Try to see if you can read this. This is in taglish (tagalog-english) and see how she spells and abbreviates the words. It so hard for me to read this. :

kaldereta!!! yes, ito ang niluluto ko ngayon para kunin ang mga tamang sukat ng mga recado, para sa bagong section ng malina times, lutong karendirya recipes. di ko kasi puedeng ilagay na puro tantsahan lang ang dami, kung ako ang magluluto ok lang kaya ko kahit walang sukatan, pero kapag iba na ang nagluluto baka pumalpak eh mapintasan ang recipe ko. isa pa kailangan lumabas na masarap din para mabili , baka langawin .. hehehe!! kaderetang dos hermanas ito matamis na maanghang.rqt

Did you know that it is illegal to drive a 1986-87 Porsche 959 in the United States. Read more why this very nice car is illegal. Yes, You can own one but you can not drive it or better yet even keep it, not unless you're someone like Bill Gates. rqt

Remote Control Sailboat. Its been a while, a year and half to be exact since I started this project. Needs to be done so I can play with it this summer.

LaPtOp

i bought a new toy, a laptop computer. actually its not mine, but i'm the one playing with it for now, trying to figure out its wireless connection. it will take a while to set it up, but its fun, sometimes frustrating when it doesn't work on the 1st, 2nd, and more tries. darn instructions very confusing i thought pc programs these days are simplier and will just walk you thru, &@% not this one.. wwhat's wrongg now? should read more!!! and i need to bring out the da Vinci in me. hehehe. rqt

busy sunday @&+= buying staff for balikbayan box.. then I have to drop it to manila box warehouse or else i'll miss their loading. next i have to go to walmart to buy jon jon's home gym equipment and drive back to manila box, cos' i need to ship it too. super heavy?? I think it weigh 300 lbs. it takes 3 guys from walmart to load it to my car. i can't take it home, no one will help me unload it & it was hanging on da reartrunk of my car, so i have 2 drive it straight to manila box (2nd time) to get some help unloading it. so huwag ninyong sayangin yan, gamitin ninyo imbes na nagpapalaki kayo ng &%#@, tunay na muscle na lang palakihin ninyo HEHEHE. iparenta ninyo rin sa mga bata diyan na gustong mag bodybuilding, pambili ng add'l equipment. regalo ni jon jon sa inyo yan. jon sabi nila t.y. daw ;-) rqt
