Lessons from a Bus Driver
I should have posted this earlier.
From my column on gmanews.tv:
While I was in Chicago last week, I attended the 40th day prayer service of my aunt's friend's mom. It was held on a cold winter night in the suburbs of Illinois. The house where it was held, however, was warm and cozy and filled with people. Conversations in English and Tagalog wafted from different rooms, while children ran up and down the house's two floors.
Dinner consisted of rich, flavorful Chinese food, and adobo. I don't remember what Chinese food was served, only that there were fortune cookies. During dinner, I sat across an American named Lisa Moore, the woman who watches the family's dogs when they go on vacation. Lisa calls herself a "professional gypsy." She spends more time in her car than at home, and has been moving around for as long as she can remember. She has worked in different fields, one of them as co-owner of a production company. In her present incarnation, she paints murals and drives a bus for the local elementary school.

Ramon de Veyra on The Comics Reporter!
Whoo hoo! Comics guru Ramon de Veyra makes his debut on The Comics Reporter. Scroll down. He's right under Douglas Wolk.
Not only does Ramon possess an unholy stack of comics trivia in his head, he has wonderful hair, too. As in people go up to him and ask him about it. He says it's because he uses Leyende, so you know you gotta try it as well.
Hahaha. No, I don't get paid to advertise. I just really, really, really like the brand.
You go, Ramon!

Vampire Graveyard Found
Got this from Charles (thanks! :D ):
At a Bronze Age dig site in Eastern Europe, archaeologists recently discovered what they think might be a 4,000 year old vampire graveyard in the Czech Republic.
I don't think the bodies were vampires. I think they were politicians.
