Away from the web world again

    I've been away (again) from the web world for almost a month due to some social experimentation that my friends and I had conducted. I am not also able to touch my PC because of my busy schedule. Around April of 2012, I am not able to use my PC for almost a month because of some malware problems.

    And last night, after a month of not peeking on the web world, not even using internet through my cellphone, I decided to deactivate my Facebook account. I know I will lose all my connections from a lot of old friends since I'm not able to see them personally these days and I might miss some news from them. But, it is final. I want it off. I had made the past 19 years without Facebook, so I know that it is just normal if I want deactivate it.

    I want to make things clearer. There are a lot of news about that psychological, mental, emotional, etc., effects on people's daily living throughout social media especially Facebook, But that is not my reason. I love using Facebook, for real. I just want it off.

    And, for the posting stuff here, I'll be gone for another month for conducting new social experimentation. My experiences from those experiments will be my topics for the month of July.

    The 'Live life, laugh and live longer' Page on Facebook is still active and is now managed by my sister, Elena.

    If you are walking on the side walks of the cities of the Philippines and you suddenly encounter a heavy smoke with an appetizing smell and an aroma that hypnotizing your taste buds  that is a sign that an ihawan (Barbecue stall or restaurant) is ahead of you.

    Filipino, no matter where they are, can never resist the taste of inihaw ('barbecue' in tagalog).

    In a small stand, a portable grill with flaming charcoal that cooks the marinated meat on sticks and people who patronized the food that is located usually on a corner is the typical scene of an ihawan stall. If you were the vendor, you must have a good memory to memorize those who already got their orders and those who haven't paid yet because the vendor usually the cashier, the server and the cook. It'll be a great loss in the income if the vendor is not attentive.

Here are some of the of inihaw/barbecued dish at a Filipino ihawan stall:

1. Isaw/IUD - Marinated chicken intestine.
2. Adidas/chicken feet
3. Baticolon or balunbalunan/chicken gizzard

4. Betamax o dugo/chicken's blood
5. Helmet/chicken's head
6. Bato/chicken's kidney
7. Sausage/hotdog
8. Atay/chicken and/or pork liver
9. Tenga ng baboy/ pig ears
10. Puso ng manok/chicken's heart
11. Ewe or pwet ng manok/ chicken ass
12. Pakpak ng manok/chicken wings
13. Kurbata/chicken wings
