This is a sandy-clay court. I love this place 'cos the people are good and kind. They played with spirited sportmanship. They're patriarch lend me a 150 square meters of land for my vegetable gardening. I planted and harvested variety of vegetables in here. I expressed gratitude for their goodness unto me. I played in this streetball court and dusty when summertime and we sprinkled at least three buckets of water. And we played with great excitement. In this place (Saudi, Bulaon), I like to play streetball cos streetballers and small crowd are affable and kind, I love to play hoops with them. They are the same with the Koreans students in Clarkfield, Pampanga they always cheer and shout when I made a basket specially the acrobatic moves, long shots and unbelievable shot.

In 2001, nine years ago in San Rafael, Mexico, Pampanga streetball under an PELCO electric post they erected streetball goal and it was really along the street time out when there was any transport vehicles that time E. Nain my teammate alongside with Purontong won lot of games by virtue of lucky and smart moves plus tremendous long shot shooting power. The most dominating when I wore longsleeve shirt, long pants & cover my head look like a ninja basketball star. All shots goal in long shots were swish nothing but net. And the double cross lay-up perfectly executed to the hole. E. Garvin was so happy, laughing with amazed in his facial expression. In 2005, five years ago in Saudi, Bulaon, San Fernando, Pampanga. With E. Diez & E. Batosin surprised the streetballers of Saudi with pick & roll strategy and perfect passing. I made four field goal in a row and dominated the rebounding & points stats. I made one tomahawk slamdunk. And the two of my teammates made good baskets, too. They are great guards in basketball. 2008-today, I always made a great impact in Bulaon Streetballs, winning many games with underdog teammates, even me at first they thought I'm look like sissy & weak. Then, I surprised them in peculiar moves in the game like lay-up in free throw, shooting behind the goal, double hands lay-up, shooting treys one meter long away from three point line. Smart moves; ankle breaker moves; stealing/swiping the ball using sun & lights shadows, watching their eyeball movement and ball movement; I'm thankful for my long arms & slim body for high jumping in blocking swiping the ball in the air; good positioning in rebounds, put backs and they always compared me with the great players local (PBA) & international (NBA). I did it with euphoric feeling of inspiration like a lovely angel is watching me. I love the feeling I love the game. I did the same in Korean English School plus doing lay-up in mid court, no look backward shot in three point area and the hookshots in three point rainbow country, doing lay up vs quardruple team, covered by two giants I can't see the goal but I feel it and made a high elevation three point shot convincingly wow. The Koreans called me "Freestyle & Basketball god". I taught them how to do lay-ups and dribbling. In Raven YSA Conference in Bataan a tune up game vs Tarlac Selection. I made a fastbreak lay-up and four triples one meter before reaching the three point line. All three pointer are nothing but net, ironically their zone defense is no match. The breakaway of the game. My teams are undefeated in LDS all tune up games & a pre-tournament game with LDS members, missionaries (only 3-3), others, in chapel of Sto. Tomas -1, Angeles-1, Mabalacat-1, Balibago-2, San Fernando-7 & Bulaon Resett. Covered Court-2, Barrio Bulaon Covered Court-1 & Sta. Barbara Open Court-1. In one day activity our record in streetball 4-0 won-loss record. Today, people of Iraq & Saudi, Bulaon saw my flamboyant moves in basketball amazingly and they also played very well with sportmanship in nature. One of my greatest games. I love it with inspiration & confidence.

Shaquille O'Neal nicknamed "Shaq" , "Superman" an American professional basketball player 7'1" or 216 cm height and 325 pounds or 147 kg in weight. Now 18 year in NBA. He used his size and strength to overpower opponents in points and rebounding department. Now he is the oldest active NBA player. How to defend him? Answer: Using Hack a Shaq defense on him, then if he is fouled he will struggles in charity lane (free throws). Now he joined title contender the Boston Celtics, some kiddin' he's look like Shrek in Celtics uniform. I believe that the Super 6 (Shaq, Garnet, Pierce, Allen, Rondo & Jarmaine O'Neal) have a good fight versus the young 3 Kings (Lebron, Wade & Bosh) of Miami Heats in the Eastern Conference Kingdom.
Dengue is one of the deadliest virus in tropical region. Some beautiful children, women and men are died, their family mourned and depressed in aweful gloom. I saw some they are thin after they survived the deadly dengue fever. Nowadays it is rainy season in the Philippines. There are more stagnant waters elsewhere. Always clean up the backyard 'cos mosquitos haven are dark and dump places of garbage of assorted junks. Clean our surroundings "Tapat ko linis ko" (Clean our own vicinity). Empty anything with stagnant waters where dengue breeding ground like tires, open cans, flower vase, anything that traps stagnant H2O. Upturn anything that can hold agua (water) 'cos they are notorious in nesting dengue mosquito eggs. Put screen on windows. Some doors are dual, the one is screen door to protect from flies, mosquitos and other insects. Spray insecticides to kills those invaders specially in dark part of our homes. When mosquitos are present wear pants, pajamas, long sleeves, socks and gloves to protect ourselves from those notorious blood suckers. In community, they used fogging method to drive away mosquitos talaquito. Some good community volunteers like Mormon Helping Hands, Universities and Colleges NSTP Programs and among other volunteers, concern citizens and cleaners cleaning the surroundings, parks, streets, schools, hospitals etc. Always eats fruits and vegetables for our protection. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. Prevention is better than cure. I killed hundred thousands of dengue mosquitos to prevent dengue virus outbreak in our area.
