Car jokes on Lokomoko...

The knock knock jokes the granny used on Lokomoko U's Talentadong Family last night were based on car brands such as Mitsubishi, Mazda, Hyundai, and Kia.











Aside from those car brands mentioned by Granny's knock knock jokes on Talentadong Family, another car joke comes out from the "of mice and jokes" portion of Lokomoko U called Keso City.

One mouse who is Rainier Castillo mentioned the car-rat jokes. He mentioned "Mouse-da" and "Nissan Rat-rol". He meant to say those new models out in the Philippines such as the Mazda 2 (known as the Demio in Japan) and the Nissan Patrol Royale.





Another mouse, who is Caloy Alde, mentioned another one. He said "Ford Mouse-tang". He meant to say Ford Mustang (cool car, but I still prefer the new Chevy Camaro anyway).

And another mouse, that is Empoy, mentioned a European car brand. He said "Mouse-cedes Benz". Yup, that's Mercedes-Benz but he mentioned something high-end. Could it be the S-Class? I think it is because it is Mercedes-Benz's high-end saloon.


These mice can't get enough of spilling out some mice jokes on Lokomoko U's Keso City.

Also on that night's Lokomoko U, gags at the lodge, another Star Factory segment on how to paint a beautiful painting, Blue singing the blues in this tear-dropping episode of Bahaw Ikalawang Hain, and yes, more wrong-guessing laugh trip with Christopher (JC De Vera) and Fermin (Rainier Castillo) on Pinoy Brainless.

Cheche Bureche once again...

That night's episode on Bubble Gang focuses on the cavalier battle gags, a hardware vending machine, karate lessons for the housewives, a man following the trends of today, more from the kings of lip-sync, Moymoy Palaboy and Roadfill (hey, what's Mykah doing in IyoTube?), Cinderella faces the jury, surprise party, and some poor-themed fashion colors.

And of course, episode four of the new Bubble Gang sketch, Cheche Bureche. In this episode, Cheche (Ogie Alcasid) is eating cookies and drinking milk while Bureche (Michael V) collected ants for her scheme to take out Cheche. Bureche told Cheche to bring her a softdrink. While Cheche is getting a softdrink, Bureche poured the ants on Cheche's cookies and milk, but suddenly, Dad (Antonio Aquitania) comes home. It seems that the daddy got mad at Cheche because why did she gets a softdrink. After all, Bureche ate all of the ant-infested cookies and milk. Another ARRRGGHHH for Bureche! LOL

Seitokais are hot and cool

The anime titled Seitokai Yakuindomo



Best Student Council (Gokujo Seitokai)




Seitokai no Ichizon



As most otakus watched, the term "Seitokai" or "Student Council" is probably the most interesting topic because not only a "seitokai" or a "student council" has the most interesting stuff, but also something hot, something bold, something humorous, and something...something. Something I would rather bite my lips out of their student council's reactions.

In some animes, a character who is a "seitokaichou" or "student council president" is sometimes a bigger rave among otakus everywhere. Like for instance,

Misaki Ayuzawa from Maid-sama



or even my favorite, Hinagiku Katsura from Hayate the Combat Butler



See what I mean?! I guess seitokais are hot and cool in a different kind of perspective. (Laugh) Who knows if some absent-minded male gets a shot at a nearby all-female student council, the result might be typical for otakus like us. (Laugh) You just got lucky to meet with those super-hot seitokais.

Kaichou Wa Maid-Sama! OST 2

Kaichou Wa Maid-Sama! OST 2

When the last time Maid-sama anime watchers bought the OST of this anime, and henceforth saying the question, "Can you spice these up?"

With the Maid-sama finale draws near, the second part of the original soundtrack of the popular anime, Kaichou Wa Maid-Sama!, is now here. Packed with even more anime BGMs, most will relieve the interesting anime about a student council president, Misaki Ayuzawa, who has a secret job as a maid at some maid cafe called Maid Latte.

Ha ha ha, to think that we want something to spice it up like Misaki's omuraisu that says ウザイ (uzai, annoying) in front of us, this second part is truly the apple of the eye for relieving the entire Maid-sama story in their own ears. For an extra, the TV-sized version of the new closing theme, ∞Loop by Heidi, is added, but for those who want the full version, this song is sold separately as a maxi single.

Best to buy it before catching the Maid-sama finale that will surely go M3 (Malay Mo, Ma-develop).

Sa'yo Lamang

Year: 2010

Filmmaker: Star Cinema

Cast: Lorna Tolentino, Christopher de Leon, Coco Martin, Bea Alonzo, Shaina Magdayao, Empress, Enchong Dee, Zanjoe Marudo


In celebration of Star Cinema's 17th anniversary, the premiere film maker from ABS-CBN has pleased to bring its cinematic masterpiece that was directed by the award-winning Laurice Guillen.

This movie brings most of the country's most respected artists such as Lorna Tolentino (Momay), Christopher de Leon, Diether Ocampo (Rubi), Coco Martin (Noy, Tonyong Bayawak), Zanjoe Marudo (Kristine, Parekoy, Banana Split), Shaina Magdayao (Rubi), Enchong Dee (Magkaribal), Empress (Rosalka), and Bea Alonzo (Magkaribal, I Love Betty La Fea), with the special participation of Dominic Ochoa (Rosalka, May Bukas Pa).

Inspired from the 2000 movie, Tanging Yaman, Sa'yo Lamang focuses on the life and times on one family struggling with their lives, and learning the value of trust, loyalty, honesty, and family values.

Upon taking a gander on this movie, it seems most of the characters in this movie has their own bitter tastes, for instance, Amanda (Lorna Tolentino) struggles with her dying life because of cervical cancer, Dianne (Bea Alonzo) tries to fulfill her mother's wish to reunite with her father (Christopher de Leon), the argument between the two boys (Coco and Enchong), and the twists happened on this movie.

This movie is just like Tanging Yaman, and the storyline gives color to this movie, making Sa'yo Lamang an interesting drama movie focusing on the struggles of one family.

Thumbs up to Laurice Guillen! And thumbs up for the cast!



Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker Heiwa to Kazuhira no Blues



Kept you waiting, huh? Just when you thought you know all about Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker (日本名:メタルギアソリッドピースウォーカー) from the start to the real finish, think again. Of course you saw the whole Peace Walker story from your own eyes, but your ears (unless you understand Japanese) didn't hear the other side of the story.

If so, the other side of the Peace Walker story comes in the Drama CD titled Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker: Heiwa to Kazuhira no Blues. This drama CD comes with the short drama, portraying the Peace Walker story's point of view in the eyes of Snake and Kazuhira "Kaz" Miller. Aside from the drama, there are two character songs added that is really fresh from the MSF Mother Base. Akio Otsuka, as Snake, will sing Showa Blues, while Tomokazu Sugita, as Miller, will perform his version of the most common Japanese song, Minato no Yoko Yokohama Yokosuka. Also, there are BGMs never before added on the original soundtrack, and special tracks including the arrange of the MGSPW main theme used in the recently ended Peace Walker web radio, Kazradio.

A must-have sound ensemble for the Metal Gear fans, especially those who are waited to hear a song from Snake and Miller.

Nissan Fuga Hybrid (HY51)

2011 Nissan Fuga Hybrid


Since 4th Quarter 2009, at the Tokyo Motor Show, Nissan unveiled the second-generation Fuga (known worldwide as the Infiniti M) to target the premium sedan segments covered by the Lexus LS and GS, Toyota Crown and Majesta, and European premium cars such as the BMW 5-Series, MB E-Class, and the Audi A6. Coming this 4th quarter of 2010, here comes the another side of the Nissan Fuga will show its opulent green identity, becoming the optimal target of other hybrid sedans. Welcome to the new Nissan Fuga Hybrid.

Part of the Nissan Pure Drive range, consisting of this, the new Thai-built March with idling stop, facelifted X-Trail Clean Diesel, and another one coming soon, this is Nissan's first hybrid car ever built to show its premium side of clean driving.

The Fuga Hybrid comes with the 3.5L V6 hybrid VQ engine that produces a power output of 306PS/6,400rpm and the torque output of 35.7kg-m/4,400rpm. With the hybrid engine armed and ready for this hybrid phantom, the fuel economy reaches to an astonishing 19.0km/L. That is 3.2km/L more than the Toyota Crown Hybrid, so it declares checkmate for Nissan's first premium hybrid sedan. The Fuga Hybrid comes in seven authentic exterior colors:

1. Crystal White Pearl

2. Eternal Snow White Titanium Metallic

3. Brilliant Silver Metallic

4. Blade Silver Metallic

5. Super Black

6. Garnet Black Pearl

7. Deep Bronze Titanium Pearl Metallic

My thoughts about the Fuga Hybrid:

Just to tell that the Fuga Hybrid is the first hybrid sedan from Nissan, and part of the Nissan Pure Drive range that delivers outstanding fuel economy and a clean living for the environment. To show this premium hybrid sedan's darkest side, it will take a few Japanese executives to try it out before leaving their Crown Hybrids behind the bars. It goes to show you that the survival of the fittest can also be applied in hybrid cars, and the Fuga Hybrid stands out against other premium hybrid sedans. It will arrive in Japan this 4th quarter and in other countries next year. I hope that NMPI or Universal Motors Corporation will bring the Infiniti brand, just so we can try this authentic jewel in the eyes of a Japanese luxury car enthusiast. This is surely worth 7,000,000 Pesos for this hybrid sedan.
