This is me, JM, Lester, and Mond showing off our balls.
I hate writing about parties, so it’s best I just show you pictures of the Philippine Macintosh Users Group Christmas Party held yesterday at Bykes Cafe in Pasong Tamo.
Take a look at the pictures here, here and oh, here!
UPDATE: Butch Dalisay did a wonderful piece on last Saturday’s party in his blog.
I’m now live on Problogger.
I feel like I’m on a pedestal.
I found these comic strips I made for Qwantz several months ago. I think I posted about it in my old blog but for the sake of starting anew, I decided to upload them on the new server.
These comics were inspired by my 95-100% grades in high school Metaphysics. We had a geriatrically-affirmed teacher named Mr. Sese so we’d comically refer to his class as “the Esse of Sese.” He always told us how he would love to die in the middle of class to show that he was “fulfilling his manner of being as a teacher.”
N.B. The comics are in chronological order, done in the all-famous Dinosaur Comics style!
You can view the first comic here.

I always thought that subject mastery meant that you could make fun of it. So … Enjoy!
I’m not sure how the work demands for Christmas put a toll on your being. But if you’re feeling low and need a quick sugar rush then all you gotta do is follow these steps:
Steps:
1. Click on the links for the full-sized image
2. Save picture or put Set as Wallpaper
3. Lick the screen
Got these from Dario. Really delicious high-quality wallpapers with the world’s preferred staple food as subject.

I noticed a lot of people have problems resizing images for their personal blogs. Not only do they eat up a lot of bandwidth, but huge images are a toil for those in dial-up. Here are some ways to make your pictures smaller while retaining the overall quality of the shots:
Note: Though you can always use Photoshop to resize images, these are two ways to make resizing faster
For Windows XP users
Windows XP Power Toys: Image Resizer
This is a small application that installs directly to the Windows XP UI. Now, everytime you right+click a picture, there will be a new option to “Resize Image.” All you do is choose the desired size. Usually for standard column blogs, the accepted width is 300. It’s free
For Mac users:
You can actually use the default screen capture app from the Mac but I prefer YellowMug’s SnapNDrag because of several other screencap options. Then, I just upload the picture to iPhoto and Export (click on the Share Tab and you’ll find it at the bottom). Resize the image and save! Again for blogs, using 300 for width is great.
If you have other tips on how to resize images, you could post them in the comments below and I’d be happy to add them.
