History Channel's "Expedition Africa" Review
2009-05-30 19:20:00 Who hasn't heard the phrase "Dr. Livingston I presume". Starting tomorrow on the History Channel a new show starts adding to the history of adventures. Four explores set out to follow the footsteps of a journalist Henry Morton Stanley who set out to follow Livingston's journey through Africa trying to see what happened to him. Livingston disappeared in the 19Th century. He dedicated his life to stop slavery. Four brave people now set out to go on a long journey through places most people don't travel or would dare hike in.

What's the Deal? Phishing Expedition?
2008-03-18 14:55:00 Not for any particular reason, just now, I did a search of 'Ibanag in the City' on Google. Among other things I found that my blog has been indexed? Why do I sound like I was complaining? I am not sure. But it seems that this blog directory called blogged.com is using my blog for a certain purpose. First, viewers were being asked to rate my blog; second if the viewer happens to be the owner, a claim must be made but not after they ask you to sign in asking for email ads and all.WTF. Sorry.I smell something unusual here. Am I right in thinking that this is a phishing expedition? Whoa! It really is not clearly visible if you look at this print screen I took because the usually bmpeed print screens I have already converted to jpg. I don't need the extra load in my blog.Suffice it to say I am witnessing first hand the unsavory side of the web. Am I correct in assuming this? I need to know :-)
