Viikii is an ungrateful bitch!

Viikii is complaining that Mysoju does not give them credit for using their subbed dramas.

Is that such a big deal when they should at least be grateful that Mysoju started linking to them? Because without Mysoju, Viikii is nothing! People only started to know about Viikii because of Mysoju. Mysoju had an established following long before anyone heard about Viikii. Did they ever acknowledge this fact?

So instead of saying thank you, they start making access to their videos from Mysoju difficult.

If I were a subber at Viikii, I would not demand credit. Actually I would not even admit that I sub for Viikii. Why? Because their English subtitles are atrocious! It's downright terrible! It would be embarrassing to admit you did such clumsy work. And they are fond of putting personal commits at the top of the screen which is very distracting.

Oh, well, I guess it is another case of biting the hand that feeds you. Shame on you, Viikii!

The Tasaday: Modern Cavemen?

From TheFreeDictionary.com

First touted in 1971 as a tribe that had lived in isolation on the Philippine island of Mindanao since the Stone Age, the Tasaday were later declared a hoax perpetrated by Philippine government official Manuel Elizalde. His claim was challenged in the 80s by Swiss anthropologist and journalist Oswald Iten, whose investigation of the two dozen Tasaday concluded that they were really members of known local tribes living a staged Stone Age lifestyle. How might Elizalde have profited from the hoax?

Where Are They Now?

In the 70's and early 80's, there were more US tv shows airing in the Philippines than locally-produced shows. Hence, I grew up watching US tv shows like Family, Dallas, Happy Days, Streets of San Francisco, Hawaii 5-0, Kojak, and many others.

I used to wonder what happened to the actors and actresses in those shows and from some movies since I don't get to hear of them anymore. Thanks to the internet, my curiosity has been appeased. There are some websites focused on the questions, "Where are they now?" and "Whatever happened to...?"

Vodka Sunrise

Vodka Sunrise is a cocktail composed of:

• 3 parts Vodka
• 6 parts orange juice
• 1 part Grenadine syrup

How to prepare Vodka Sunrise:

• Mix Vodka and orange juice in a glass with ice.
• Add Grenadine syrup. Do not stir. Let the syrup sink to the bottom of the glass.
• Garnish with lemon and serve.
  

If it reminds you of the cocktail, Tequila Sunrise, you're right. The preparation is the same as Tequila Sunrise, but Vodka is used instead of Tequila.

Ergo, if you use Tequila, then it's called Tequila Sunrise. If you use Vodka, then it's Vodka Sunrise. :p

Either case, it is a delicious drink.

Do you know why it's called Tequila (or Vodka) Sunrise? It is because of the Grenadine which settles at the bottom of the glass. The color combination resembles that of a sunrise.
