Javelin Olympian Wins Gold Metal in Hotness

Like many other red blooded males watching the Olympics Opening Ceremony I also noticed a particularly striking Olympian from Paraguay. Up until now I did not know her name or even in what competition she belonged to. I figured maybe she was a gymnasts or a swimmer, certainly not a marathon runner or a heaven forbid a woman weight lifter. Still when I found out she was a javelin thrower, I was a little surprised. Her name is Leryn Franco, long lost cousin of General Francisco Franco, okay I don't think they are related, but she is an aspiring model and apparently has her own calendar. All I know about this javelin thrower, is that I sure would like to spear her...

Ever wonder why the Hall of Justice was kept so clean?

An illegal alien is brought to the Hall of Justice to work as a domestic helper, rofl. Maybe some of you are too young to remember the Hall of Justice; but it was the Headquarters of the Super Friends when the show was being run in the early 80s.

Skin Whitening Products According to me.

Davy's Guide to Skin-Whitening Products..

All is fair in love and skin.

Before and After Skin Whitening Product Whitening




Fair skin is often associated with health, class, wealth, and beauty in many backwards ass countries. Here in the U.S we don't care about that stuff and get drunk and pass out at the beach without worrying getting dark, however..

The skin-whitening market is gigantic in scale, encompassing such diverse locales as Manila, Kuala Lampur, New Delhi, even reaching its pale tentacles to Big Ben in London. Traditionally skin-whitening products have been geared towards women, but recently men have begun purchasing these products too. Apparently not a single man in India will admit to being dark skinned and handsome, they all say they are "Wheatish Complexioned and handsome" I guess if you go there you won't find a single dark skinned man, they're all rolling wheat fields of masculinity.. I swear that Likas soap in the bathroom is not mine!! I think its my brother's... Some dismiss this preference as some lingering ethos of a Colonial past. However, I question the veracity of this widely held truth. If you read Ancient Hindu poetry the aesthetic aspirations of idealized Hindu Beauty was always fair-skin. Same as in China and Kazahkstan (#1 exporter of potassium)

I don't disagree that colonialism only reinforced this notion, but I think it is something ingrained within the human psyche, for even the colonial masters themselves held remarkably similar beliefs.

I think it stems from two things. The first lies within the differences betwen the Aristocracy and the working class. In many cultures, 'fair-complexion' was a sign of Nobility and elitism as it denoted the line between someone who sits in a Castle all day being pampered and one who works the fields performing back crushing labor under the oppressive sun. The Filipino notion of working in "ofis" vs working in "field" describes this perfectly.

Second is the natural tendency for a woman to be always fairer in skin than her racial male counterpart. White females tend to be lighter than white males, black females lighter than black males unless of course your name is Michael Jackson, and ect..

So with that slightly long footnote and psychobabble, here's my list of top skin-lightening products.

1) Bleach: Clorox Bleach is the best, not only will it clean your sox and underpants it will also strip your skin bare plus it is remarkably cheap, I'm sure those rashes and burns are only temporary. My mom works at a hospital so I know these things......

2) Mercury: some people have made unfounded claims that mercury is a "neurotoxin" I think this is just hearsay from people who are jealous of your lighter skin. Some alleged scientists claim that elevated Mercury levels could cause retardation in children.. But who cares, remember if you are a dark skinned girl in a backwards third world country your chances of marriage and consequently having children are slim anyways, and who cares if your children suffer from retardation at least they will have lighter skin.

3) Likas Papaya, a little bit of false advertisement because this didn't taste like Papaya at all,.. However it is the most prefered brand in the Philippines. I asked my white friend which product he used to keep his white skin white while in the Philippines and he prefers this above any other product. Obviously this product works, because he stayed out in the sun a lot and stayed Whiter than rice.

4) Emami Industries "Fair and Handsome" with the tag line "Be Fair or remain in Dark Oblivion".. This product is popular amongst Metro Sexual Indian men. Promising that if you use this, College Girls will swoon all over you. I ordered 25 bottles of this stuff, I'll tell you later how much swooning goes on.

5) Whatever skin lightening my aunt modeled for, obviously this stuff is great, she has radiant skin. I can't remember what it is, it might be Likas, don't quote me on that.

In closing we humans always have this wish to ameliorate our skin condition, and will probably continue to do so, I just hope my Boss doesn't assign me to the "field" *gasp* or I will need more Likas Papaya and Bleach....

Criss Angel: Exposed by Fox 13

A good illusion is one that suspends our minds from disbelief, despite knowing that it is ultimately fake. Criss Angel's "stunt" never elicited such a response, he failed to suspend our disbelief and bordered on the absurd. A common analysis of the Spy Glass Tower Implosion is that the Video Feeds of Angel desperately racing against the powder keg clock was not live. Fox 13, provides some compelling evidence to support this observation. They also captured some rather interesting footage with their Fox 13 helicopter. If you don't want spoilers do not click on this link, to Fox 13.

Ras Tafari Filipinos; WTF???

Meet Budoy, Pinoy Big Brother reject and a self confessed Rastafari. I think it's fitting that when I googled the keywords "Pinoy Rastafari" Budoy's face pops up. Budoy is a local celebrity in Cebu and according to my aunt Margie some sort of comic genius. I saw him quite a lot of him sitting in the starbucks near Ayala, that stupid towel on his head and sipping on some soul devouring Corporate Coffee. Starbucks Ayala has the only decent bathroom in the Cebu Metropolitan Area, and that would be the only reason why I would be hanging out at Starbucks.



Anyways apparently Budoy is a Rastafari, and a local purveyor of "reggae" music. I know people say that the Philippines is 20 years behind America, but for God's sake Bob Marley died in 1981, but don't tell the Cebuano Rastafaris that, they might go into mourning for their favorite star. I'm not joking, some of these people think I shot the Sherif is a contemporary number one hit. You leave the Philippines for a few years, and the next time you come back you see Pinoys wearing Ethiopian colors and sporting dreadlocks. I wonder what in the world Bob Marley would think about a bunch of midgets in dreadlocks worshiping Haile Selassie I.

So I guess the question is how did a Black Liberation theology begin to influence the underground movement of an Asian Nation nearly 30 years after one of it's most famous proponent dies? I don't have a clue either.
