I LOST MY GLOBE! ARRRRRGH!!! Please help me re-build my Contact List. Send me your cell# at: budj (@) rocketmail (dot) com Thank you. Ugh! I lost my cellphone in Starbucks, Greenhills (the one beside Chili's). I must have been too sleepy to notice that it fell out of my pocket. I was at work til 10am yesterday. I rushed home, took a bath, dressed up, then went with my mom and Brandie to meet up with family friends. After lunch, we went to Starbucks and that's where I lost my phone.

May we someday look back and mark these times as a "New Age" for Filipino comic books. (I think it would be presumtuous to already call these times our Silver Age, but I'm sure we've already set the foundations of something truly
Chief of Staff LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- John Spencer, who played a tough and dedicated politico on "The West Wing" who survived a serious illness to run for vice president, died of a heart attack Friday. He was 58. I read this news a couple of days before Christmas, but haven’t had the chance to blog about until now. I’ve been a big WEST WING fan ever since I saw “ Isaac and Ishmael ”, their special episode that dealt with what happened during 9/11. When the local stores started to bring in copies of the first two seasons of WEST WING, I got both sets. John Spencer played Leo McGarry , the President’s Chief of Staff, in the show. One of my favorite moments was a scene in the first season. President Bartlet was about to give the State of the Union address and he was talking to the Secretary of Agriculture in the Oval Office. From the adjoining room, Leo McGarry overheard this conversation: President Josiah Bartlet: Roger, If anything happens, you know what to do, right?
