Whether this photo is edited, manipulated or photoshopped, the finished product will catch anyone's attention and notice 

how this person's mind works to come up with  a novel idea:

Washing Gas Range ... anyone?

Time and again, as a person from the outside looking in, we have seen the imagination and the inventiveness (creativity and uniqueness) of man through ancient, classical, modern, and contemporary arts. Some of these art and literary masterpieces are displayed in cultural and history museums.

 Now, you can see man's creativity in all aspects of endeavor — from architecture, cuisine, and fashion to literature, music, and films. In fact, you can almost say that creativity and innovation are embedded in the everyday lives of everyone.

The feature above may sound too minor to some ... but some nuggets of artistry ... is evident. It is the START.

Question Of The Day

Filipinos love a good riddle ... and answering crossword puzzles. Our desire to answer all the questions and completely finish the job gives us some kind of fulfillment, the need to continue and persevere until we accomplish the task. It tickles our brain cells, and we feel mighty proud once the cryptogram is decoded.

People ask why everybody loves Jessica Fletcher of Murder She Wrote? Or Ben Matlock or Jake and the Fatman.  Well,  they always solve mysteries.

Too bad, there are a lot of questions and mysteries out there that we may never learn the answers to their intriguing nature. The universe is far-reaching and its mysteries limitless, and there are many things that even geniuses have their arms raised upwards because they don't have answers to some of these queries. 

Let’s explore some of the questions that there are no answers to. Some of them have answers though ... like this one.

In Miss Universe 1969 Preliminary interview ... Gloria Diaz Miss Universe 1069 was asked:

Judge: Is it true that you Filipinos use your hands when you eat?

Gloria Diaz: Why do you use your feet?

Klap ... klap ... klap.  The answer is short, concise, and direct to the point. Para siyang si Kris Aquino sa pagiging taklesa ... siya siguro ang Q and A coach ni Gloria Diaz noon ... eh kung pabara-bara lang naman ang tanong bakit ka mahiya na pabara-bara din ang sagot na ibibigay mo. Tit for tat.

This will eventually cut the interview short. The judge who was given a dose of her own medicine .... gaganahan pa bang magtanong? I think not ... whatever follow-up questions she has was nip in the bud.

That was 1969 ... it may have worked at that time pero I doubt if it will work in this day and age when Miss Universe has spread its wings in the name of inclusivity - pwede na ang mga gurang ... ang mga may asawa ... ang mga tomboy  ... and mga plus-sized candidate ... and transgendered women. Parang circus na nga ang Miss Universe.

Maybe if that's the way you answer the questions today ... baka kukuyugin ka ng mga judges. 

SAD Reality

 

Slip of The Tongue

An occasional slip of the tongue ... or a slip of the pen is normal and is quickly forgiven by the person listening or reading... that is ... if they even notice it. Even when they do, most people most of the time will recognize a slip of the tongue or pen for what it is and realize that what you meant to say or write ... is not what you did say or write.

This is a classic Melanie Marquez blunder- Miss International 1979.

When interviewed Melanie blurts out:

"I don't eat meat ... I am not a CARNIVAL". 

When she meant CANNIBAL.

It's a Mad Mad World

 A climate of stupidity made this collection possible.

It chronicles the most outrageous occurrences of shortsightedness, incompetence, and poor judgment.

Not all characters in these dispatches are stupid.  Some are merely ridiculous or momentarily inept.

Others are very bright people who become innocently entangled in improbable situations that turn out to sound stupid.

The papers that reported these occurrences are all reputable mainstream bastions of journalism.

Thanks to them, for without their efforts we will never see any strange news from this strange planet.

Although many of us are worried about the threat of crimes in our neighborhood.  The good news is that plenty of crooks don't realize that they are their worst enemy.

Are you ready? Here we go!

Detroit Michigan- Mrs. Florence Loverde 45, placed a wooden table beneath a tree to rescue a stranded cat squawling in the branch of a tree. The table collapsed and Mrs. Loverde suffered a broken left leg and internal injuries.  

It is ironic ... that the cat climbed down unassisted and walked away. Didn't she know that?

Valentine Twist?

Marvel Studios' brand new posters for Deadpool and Wolverine are riding the popularity of Valentine's Day to promote their movie. It will still open in July in Philippine cinemas. And this early they are starting to buzz your ears that it is another movie worth waiting.

It stars Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and Emma Corrin. To be honest, I found the poster impugn the trailer. I know movie posters are one of the cheapest and the most effective promotional tools as a way to invite the public to flock to theaters.  

It also helps to conjure a cinematic experience in static form. But a finger heart for an action-adventure movie sounds a little offish. What is that ... an action comedy with a HEART?
