Efren Bata Reyes as Caesar Morales at Red's 9-Ball Open!
2008-04-13 08:36:00 Efren Bata Reyes as Caesar Morales! I chanced upon this article on Efren Bata Reyes, aka The Magician, as I was browsing EasyPoolTutor.com on billiards and Filipino pool players. The article, "8-Ball, Corner Pocket," was written by Phil Zabriskie and published in the December 2001 issue of Time Asia. It is one interesting read, friends! And I kid you not!He was a skinny guy with a thin mustache and no teeth. To most folks, this Caesar Morales looked like a dreamer without a chance, some local hero or small-time hustler who thought he could ride a few bar room triumphs to success on the pro billiards circuit. Maybe he was Mexican, or Filipino - he didn't say and no one asked. This was the 1985 Red's 9-Ball Open in Houston, Texas, $10,500 to the winner, where billiards' best came to win, not make friends. Morales stayed inconspicuous; the guys he came with did not. They were making bets, saying not only would Morales and his $10 cue win his matches, but he would beat the finest s...

Maraming salamat talaga,kaibigan! Efren Reyes? CueWhat cue does Efren Reyes use? This is a very popular topic in billiards forums, pool halls, and well, probably every pool player I know at least once became curious as to what type of cue the master uses. Maybe there?s something in his cue, or at least maybe, there?s something wrong in our cues that we can?t make the same shots he does. Nothing?s special with his cue for sure, and nothing?s wrong with ours either; ?it?s him? is almost always the most popular end to this debate. But well, like most pool afficionados, especially equipment freaks, we can?t help but be curious. I don?t persona...

Lesson learned
2007-08-07 16:30:00 Isang leksyon ang natutunan ko ngayong gabi. Huwag matutulog habang ginugupitan. Papauwi na sana ako ng mapadaan ako sa pinapagupitan ko ng buhok. Hindi ito kalayuan sa school namin. At dahil medyo magulo ang buhok ko at mahirap ring ayusin dahil medyo humaba na ito ng konti, naisipan ko na lang na magpagupit. Bago na ang mga staff ng pinapagupitan ko. Hindi ko na nakita yung mga taong dating gumugupit sa buhok ko (o dahil siguro late na akong pumasok).Dahil medyo pagod sa buong araw na klase, hindi ko naiwasang makatulog habang ginugupitan. Isa sa mga weakness ko (in terms of tulog) ay yung buhok ko. Madali akong nakakatulog kapag may humahawak o may humihimas sa buhok ko. O kahit anong gawin mo sa buhok ko hangga't 'di ako nasasaktan, makakatulog ako niyan. Aircon ang lugar, may palabas na news sa TV, pagod sa klase at may gumagalaw sa ulo ko...sinong hindi makakatulog diba?Kung hindi nga naman mamalasin, sumobra ang gupit mo kuya. Mas maikli yung buhok sa inaasahan ko...

2007-08-03 18:55:00 Ako po ay nakikiisaSa mga estudyante sa elementaryaSa pagdiriwang nilaNg Buwan ng WikaKaya ako'yMagsusulat sa wikang FilipinoKahit na ito'yHindi ko kabisado.Eto na naman po ako at walang magawa. Ala-una na ng umaga at hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ako makatulog kahit na pakiramdam ko ay pagod na pagod na ako. Kaya naman, sasamantalahin ko na lang ang pagkakataong ito upang pasalamatan ang mga bumati sa akin sa araw ng aking kaarawan.Kay Ate Coisey na siyang unang bumati sa akin. Tinext niya ako habang ako ay nasa ere at sumasakay sa Flying Fiesta sa Enchanted Kingdom. Sa mga Kalasagers na nagbigay ng surprise. (hindi gaanong surprise kasi nakita ko si ate ina na may dalang cake). Sa mga kaibigan sa kolehiyo at mga kaklase ko noong high school na hindi nakalimot (at addict sa friendster dahil nakita nila sa friendster ang birthday ko) sa araw ng aking kaarawan. Sa mga bumati sa friendster at multiply, maraming salamat po. Sa mga bloggers na dumaan sa aking blog at bumati sa akin...
