[QUOTE=Amanut; 1197658]I think three nights and two days will be enough time to stretch my intellect. This is my latest DIA message from the lady I am going to spend time with in Palawan. Maybe. Struck me as funny though. I had talked to her about accommodation in Palawan. She came through with the name of a hotel she thought may be nice. The conversation finished like this.

Good evening, I'm not online yesterday, have a little problem only. How are you there hope you always okay. And I'm fine here. By the way here's the name of the hotel. Search it in google, sabang hotel. The name is Cherrydan hotel I don't know if thats a right spelling.[/QUOTE]Check out GregLondon's post in the "other areas" thread.

I am going to be in Manila for one week an AC for another week in October and would like to know where is a good spot ot watch american football. I am staying in Ermita but will be willing to travel. I know it will be very later at night but it is no problem for me. Please let me know.

Natty as I said in a previous post I think my Palawan DIA is dumb as a post. Perhaps that is not fair. Maybe she has just never seen the other side of life. Her Cherrydan is in fact the Sheridan. When I am chatting I do like to ask for recommendations about accommodations. It gives me a sense of what I am dealing with. The conversations with her on YM are painful, but I have seen her on cam and she is cute. Each of us has our own cues. Worst case senerio I cut it short with her with urgent business travel. Thanks for the Jens Peters link though. Great information on that site.

Skip Kost. Thanks. Yes I have sent GregLondon a PM for more info. It is going to be a great trip.

The Sheridan is the other upscale hotel in Sabang. The Daluyon is done up in the 'native' style and the Sheridan is modern in style. I did not see the rooms at the Sheridan, but I kept running into another punter who was staying there with his Filipina GF. She was hot. He said the place was nice, but next time he might try the Daluyon.

Food: the Sheridan restaurant on the beach is very good. Twice for dinner, I ordered the grilled Yellow Fin Tuna steaks and they were great – high quality and very fresh. My last night in Sabang I tried the stuffed Calamari at the Sheridan which could easily have been terrible, but it was very good. I had breakfasts at the Daluyon because it came with the room. It was ok. The best part was the fresh fruit and juices available. The Daluyon restaurant had one thing on its menu that was great: their Yellow Fin Tuna Ceviche. I ordered it almost every day for lunch. So the meals I had in Sabang turned out to be the best I had in PI. No kidding. I also tried a couple of small local type restaurants on the beach, but they were disappointing, so I stuck with the two high end places.

I think you have the right attitude concerning your DIA girl. If it does not work out; send her home or abort the mission. But don't be too hard on her. You are not asking her out because of her intellect or educational background. Treat her right and if she looks good to you, has a pleasant disposition, likes to shag, and doesn't try to take you for too much of a ride; then it will be an excellent trip. Shit, I got 4. 5 months to go before my next trip. I envy you.

Thanks Fast Eddie 48. I will have to make sure I download what I need from NFL. Com before I go so I can get my team on my laptop. I just wanted to see the game on a big screen and some of the espn games do not interest me. Take care and go Bears.

I don't think it will happen in my lifetime but I guess we can always hope.

Or maybe it's just that too much sex ruins me for anything else meaningful in life.

Recently I had a Pakastani explain to me that his countrymen are so resistant and distrusting of their government, that even when the government officially announces that it's time to turn back the clocks one hour for the summer, most Pakastanis don't bother to do it. Time demarcations are, after all, arbitrary and relative, and they don't have much direct correlation with movements of fish or game, ripening crops, or seasonal weather.

An Asian country adjusted the clock by 1 hour, towards GMT, and the Asian Tsunami hit. And the astrologers believe that the calamity happened, simply, by adjusting the clock, the country had been relocated to a different 'plane' and a different location, and hence bore the wrath of the Gods.

Lo and behold, the next year they put back the time to where it was long before.

Welcome to Asia. There are powerful forces at play here.

Since this is the Philippines thread, how do you understand people who rate VP Binay as the most trusted person, when his wife is facing corruption charges? And how do you understand people who hate Macros Sr but vote in Marcos Jr and his mom?

[QUOTE=D Cups;1200762]The Bears put up a good fight yesterday but I am a Packer fan. Good luck.[/QUOTE]Hey D Cups,

Glad to hear there are Packer Backers everywhere! There is actually a shop beside the Royal Amsterdam Hotel in AC that sells some pretty nice jerseys. I got a Farve and Rodgers one last spring. Maybe we can share a brat and a beer sometime! It was SWEET yesterday!

GO PACK GO!

Hes fighting them all with Makati tax payers money and some maybe resolved by 2020. His wife only has the one charge against her. VP Binays son, now the mayor has a few charges against him too, some in which the mother is a co-respondant and some in which father and brother are co respondants. His former deputy mayor even has filed charges against the VP.

The only question I ask is how on a mayors salary did he have a really blingy gold rolex with all the diamonds that was his favouritre accessory. Not to the mention the cost of his daughters wedding which I attended. Now that was truly extravagant! Being a mayor is lucrative in Phils.

[QUOTE=Nolz7;1200851]I don't care about their political views as long as I can get cheap pussy![/QUOTE]Yah, but the US Ambassador has just opened up a new way for the PNP / BI and all and Sundry to screw visitors. Accusing anybody of being sex tourist.

What is he upto? Hmmmm.

Does he even know that the 'girls' are brought to the trade by their own brethren and it's not like the foreigners are morally corrupting them?
