The North Beckons: January 2007
http://thefogramp.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 25, 2007. An armored van went over the railing of the Skyway's Makati exit last night. It smashed through the metal barrier then fell some 50 odd feet down- where a Toyota Revo sat. They say all the people in the armored car died. The route to work passes through there, so I saw the scene of the accident on the way to the office this morning. The poor bastards understeered into the railing. Or on the spot. So, we have that devious corner, misjudged speed, and finally, the vehicle's cond...

The North Beckons: Wait! I'm Lost.
http://thefogramp.blogspot.com/2009/01/wait-im-lost.html
Thursday, January 29, 2009. Do you know I'm an overweight, lazy sod who can't be forced to exercise? Are you aware that I view perpetually chucking salty, oily food into my mouth as a religious exercise? Do you have high-tech monitoring equipment lodged into each burger I take in, each bag of chips that inevitably meets its maker the moment it touches my hands? Or has heaven seen fit to send me a lifeline? Yet again, the task involves the mention of weight loss pills. Posted by CSG at 3:05 PM.

The North Beckons: Holy Cra...
http://thefogramp.blogspot.com/2008/11/holy-cra.html
Friday, November 28, 2008. And the windfall continues. Mr. Xbox 360 just sent me an SMS telling me that it looked like he was close to convincing (read: con job) Mama to get him a laptop. Apparently, he didn’t think the machine I was selling him was good enough, so he took her to have a look at some Sony Vaio. S Oh, I’m happy for him, I just simply cannot believe the lucky streak the boy’s been having. All is well, I guess; his kuya and I have loads of fish to take care of anyway. View my complete profile.

The North Beckons: December 2006
http://thefogramp.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 06, 2006. December 10, 2056. Here lies a coward. Dreams did he have, but not the courage to pursue them. And while the world lay before him, he bowed to lesser gods and more. Here lies a coward, the weakest of them all. Posted by CSG at 12:44 PM. Monday, December 04, 2006. And now, as the piper put his pipe into its case for the last time, he felt a strange quiet within him. It. Was an unsettling silence, much like that of an empty stage. A stage, once blood has been spilled. The smal...

The North Beckons: August 2006
http://thefogramp.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 23, 2006. The Reyes men drive. It's a religion in my family. The boys are expected, nay required, to get behind the wheel at 13 or 14; and a certain level of expertise is demanded by age 15. There are also some very strict guidelines. Here are a few:. 1 Gear changes must be smooth. If the passenger feels you shifting gears, you might as well hand them the wheel. Yes, the one with the footrest. It's there for a reason." Classic Cesar. And then there are the stories. The best I've done is...

The North Beckons: March 2006
http://thefogramp.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 31, 2006. Sometimes life is just too good that we need to find something wrong with it. In finding that dark cloud beyond the silver lining, we see ourselves as normal and wash away the guilt of having more. It's your first day at a new job. You're still a bit short on cash, so you need to walk to the office. It's a hot day. No sweat. As soon as I get my paycheck, I'll have some extra money for the bus fare. And hey, I am reporting for WORK. Identify those less-fortunate than you are. Crap ...

The North Beckons: A Mugging
http://thefogramp.blogspot.com/2008/12/mugging.html
Friday, December 05, 2008. There was a show on maglev trains the other night on the Discovery Channel and the technology and physics that drive the trains are mind-blowing. Imagine; the highest recorded speed of a maglev train is 581 km/h (that’s just over 360 mph, for our American friends) that’s Baguio and back in under an hour with only magnets.
