Hello, friends and readers, I feel there will be super strict travel requirements soon now that people have exhausted the temporary freedom brought about by the Alert Level 1 in the Philippines. I, myself, am truly thinking of staying home and keeping my immune system healthier which means I wouldn't be going out as often. Surely I might miss those fun moments, but I can easily adjust as I am naturally an introvert😀
Let's relax for a moment and read something funny 
I first read this article from a Philippine Star column, and to my surprise it was nominated as the best email of 1999. I still have this clipping in my " pack rat box" which is really a rectangular storage stool sofa box where I keep whatever I find amusing
For the sake of those who've never read it yet, here you are; for those who've read it before, let's laugh again!
