List of free WiFi hotspots in Quezon City
For the reason that I have a new laptop (clap, clap), I have been compiling a list of free WiFi hotspots in Quezon City where we can access the net at no cost.
Interestingly, I learned that the two of the most “covered” areas are the Tomas Morato area and the Trinoma Mall at North Avenue, Quezon City.

List of Bohol town fiestas
They say that the island of Bohol sinks about an inch in May due to the thousands of Bol-anons who come home to attend the many town and barrio fiestas celebrated during the month.
You can almost feel this once you disembark from those overloaded ships docking at the Tagbilaran Port in May.

Mariveles Fact
Much historical interest is attached to this place. It was the chief port of the Jurisdiction of Mariveles under the old territorial division which comprised the island now called Corregidor. Mariveles is now included in the province of Bataan.
The first Spanish missionary who attempted to domesticate the natives of the Mariveles coast was stoned by them, and died in Manila as a consequence. An insubordinate Archbishop was once banished to Mariveles. Through the narrow channel between this port and Corregido
GARY GRANADA: OTHER COMPOSER NOT THE ISSUE
Concerning GMA Network’s simple-minded iwas-pusoy position that the issue is rather between me and a fellow composer, let me reiterate my argument for the nth time:
GMA Network is the producer and broadcaster of the jingle. They should be “man enough” as a respectable corporate entity to take professional corporate responsiblity. Even minuscule organizations have the most basic of self-respect to say, for instance,
“Our attention has been called regarding such and such.. and we shall look into the matter seriously and immediately, exhaust all avenues to give all parties a fair hearing and determine our course of action accordingly.”
For such a huge media organization, surely they could find one scriptwriter who knows how to write a respectable corporate statement. Again, I find this tack of Atty. Dick Perez wily and most insulting to our elementary intelligence.
I have no issues whatsoever with the other composer. For all we know, she was merely following instructions. Much as I don’t like this particular work of hers, I neither suspect nor presume guilt on her part. Hell, everybody has a bad hair day, and I also make lousy songs at times. But that is not the issue here.
Again and again, my claim is: GMA Network took advantage of the study I made in producing the jingle they aired. If that is not clear enough, let me itemize it:
ONE: GMA Network allowed the composer of Procter & Gamble’s 3pid Handog Edukasyon jingle access to the lyrics as set to music by Gary Granada.
TWO: And quite possibly, GMA Network allowed the composer of Procter & Gamble’s 3pid Handog Edukasyon jingle access to the recording of the study made by Gary Granada.
And so, in the spirit of honesty and social accountability, and to facilitate an intelligent discourse, I challenge GMA Network to a “walang kinikilingan, walang pinoprotektahan” public forum concerning my claim, and request the Philippine Daily Inquirer to organize one to be moderated by the University of the Philippines.
