Puro tayo iyakan, mag-laugh trip muna tayo!

At the start, we saw Vice Ganda messing around some scenes from 100 Days To Heaven, Mula sa Puso, Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin, Mara Clara, and Green Rose. Well, that's Vice Ganda, this kind of personality blows out 999,999,999,999 horsepower of fun and entertainment on Vice Ganda's first talk show titled Gandang Gabi Vice!

I'm glad we saw Showtime's residental judge starting his own talk show and wow, this could be fun! Yes, we witness Vice Ganda's 999,999,999,999 horsepower of madness and fun while having fun with the special guests.

I bet it's all talk, all comedy, on Vice Ganda's new show airing every Sunday nights and I bet this is much more of a threat to GMA's late night Saturday TV show, Comedy Bar.

Keep up the good work, Vice Ganda! We always want more of your maximum horsepower mayhem to put a smile on our faces!

Also, I wonder, upon Vice Ganda bringing in Mang Virgillo, he sang the "Hayop Na Combo" song. Hey, I'm kinda familiar with that...

Not only that, Vice Ganda offers tips in a segment called Vice Ganda. He'll brings a special guest to offer viewers some tips. The pilot episode offered Bea Alonzo as first. Every week, Vice Ganda brings a special guest to solve your life problems.

How can you say about Gandang Gabi Vice? Is it worth it?

Blow the mufflers, warn the people!

Honda CR-Z Mugen


Time to blow the trumpets and warn the car enthusiasts because Honda of UK and Mugen Euro modified the Sport Hybrid Car, the Honda CR-Z (released since February 2010), to a more supercharged one-off special.

Scoop:

Details remain slim but the supercharged tune on the CR-Z makes it even more... NOISIER ENOUGH TO WAKE THE NEIGHBORS!

Time for me to get my earplugs ready!

Porsche Panamera S Hybrid

2012 Porsche Panamera S Hybrid

With the success of last year's Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid (based on the second-generation Porsche Cayenne SUV), Porsche raises up the green ante by introducing a second hybrid model and this time, it will be based on the Panamera, Porsche's first premium sedan.

The Porsche Panamera S Hybrid uses the same Panamera architecture but with the added hybrid ability to make it the ultimate high-performance hybrid designed and engineered in Leipzig, Germany. (Sorry Infiniti M Hybrid, but the Panamera S Hybrid is deserved to be the high-performance hybrid)

The new Panamera Hybrid is powered with the 3.0 litre V6 supercharged engine, capable of releasing 380PS/5500rpm worth of power, 580Nm/1000rpm worth of torque and a 288V electric motor that releases 34kW of power output. With the motor and engine powered, this hybrid is highly unstoppable, it can tear down the Infiniti M Hybrid by whatever means necessary. The top speed of the Panamera S Hybrid is 270km/h while the Infiniti M Hybrid goes for about 250km/h. However, there's a twist; when compared on a 0-100km run, the Infiniti M Hybrid scored 5.5 seconds while the Panamera S Hybrid scored .5 seconds more but whatever.

In terms of fuel consumption, the Panamera S Hybrid consumes 7.1 Liter/100 km combined while the Infiniti M Hybrid consumes 7.0 Liter/100 km combined. It's a shame that a 1L/100km difference made the Infiniti M Hybrid more fuel efficient than the Porsche Panamera S Hybrid.

The 8-speed Tiptronic S seems to be a handy transmission offered on the Panamera Hybrid but even when you shift it to Manual Mode, it seems to be more stressful like the Lexus ISF, which also has an 8-speed transmission. It would be nice to drop a few gears to make the Panamera Hybrid fun to drive but 8 gears wouldn't been a good preference and it could ended up being a total nonsense but still it will do whatever it can for the Panamera S Hybrid to bring compensation to the drivers.

My Comment:
I would kindly take back the words I said. I would still prefer the Asian-American Infiniti M Hybrid over the German-made Porsche Panamera Hybrid because of the time lapsed at the 0-100km, the fuel economy, and the emissions but if I'm bored, I would just give the Panamera Hybrid a try.

The Porsche Panamera Hybrid is the second Porsche hybrid car since the Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid.

Sabadabadog! Sabadabadog! Sabadabadog! My First Impressions

SABADABADOG!

It was Saturday, May 21, 2011, when the parents tune it to GMA and tell their kids that GMA's newest educational kids TV show, titled Sabadabadog is here.Yes, our newest friends to play, Kuya Tonipet, Sabadabadog, Mei-Mei, Don Kahon, and Bebe Garu, are here every Saturday mornings to have kids play and learn.

Sorry to rain on our parade but I'm still witnessing my second childhood right now and I have the urge to watch the pilot episode of Sabadabadog. As I noticed, is Sabadabadog sounded like Kokey? Oh well. On the pilot episode, Kuya Tonipet, Sabadabadog, and friends (especially viewers like you) finds a way how to do with an old tire. Instead of being trash, this old tire has something to make use of.

Kuya Tonipet also told us a story of a lone old tire named Dingdong Gulong, an old tyre that was once turned into a swing after he was picked up by some man and he painted the old tire with paints.

We also learned that the tire has a "circle" shape and we learned more about circles!

At the end of the first episode, the once old tire became a chandelier! 

We had fun at the first episode. I think this new kids TV show, Sabadabadog, does well against TV5's Batibot, which is of course resurrected last year. This makes it also a fair rival against ABS-CBN's "Why Not?" and in fact those big three served good kids TV show that makes little kids play and learn!

It's an "ALL IN THIS TOGETHER" in The Ringtone finale

In the previous three weeks of Spooky Nights presents The Ringtone, we witnessed the ghost named Sad Ako risen from the well to terrorize hapless victims. Brix (Aljur Albrenica) was followed by Sad Ako, even Nancy (Kris Bernal) almost got herself killed by Sad Ako. The whole family will seek revenge against Brix and his gang by snatching Nancy and sending her straight to the well.

On the finale, it's an "ALL IN THIS TOGETHER" situation as Brix and the gang struggles to save Nancy from the clutches of Sad Ako, Dr. Morgan (Benjie Paras) and the horde of something evil. Did Sad Ako snatched Nancy because Brix killed Sad Ako? When Sad Ako slapped Nancy, Nancy fights back and this is getting out of control. 

Brix is getting nervous about going through the well to rescue Nancy. While tensions on the rise, the fight between the copycats, Nancy and Sad Ako, reaches further and the both of these rivals gone "folk dancing", which is utterly nonsense but crazy.

Yes, Brix is getting nervous until when he saw a message, Tricia (Sam Pinto) pushed Brix, resulting him to fall through the well. What a rude act for Tricia. At the well, the truth is finally revealed that Sad Ako was the person who called Brix. It was Brix who rejected Sad Ako and resulted from falling through the well. 

The message is "Patawad. Mahal na mahal kita. Mag-hintayin mo ako. Parating na ako." Sad Ako apologized to Brix and promised to terrorize them again and therefore, Sad Ako helps them but Dr. Morgan and his family showed up! Oh no!

Brix tries to persuade Dr Morgan and his family that he's not his fault but Dr. Morgan, Sad Ako, and the family are going to kill the both of them.

It's all your fault Tricia for pushing too hard to a worse-case scenario! Meanwhile, Vanessa (Sef Cadayona) blabbers everything to Tricia. Luckily, Brix and Nancy avoided Dr. Morgan and his family's attack and the ridiculous chase scene is on but ended on being surrounded again! Oh no!

Something weird is falling down and who are those spacemen? Meanwhile, as they were surrounded some words appeared while Brix and Nancy hold on while being surrounded by Dr. Morgan's family.

And They Lived Deadly
Ever After

Oh, wait, those spacemen we mentioned we're just Mang Aga (Gene Padilla), Macmac (Gerould Aceron), and those two guys from the previous episodes (Moymoy Palaboy and Roadfill).The pals use the fire hose to flood the whole well. Is that their Plan B to save Brix and Nancy? Well, whatever. Brix and Nancy does whatever they can to get out while the gang needed help from the people to fill up the well because the fire hose just went out of water. As the rescue gone worse, the gang used the empty fire hose as rescue ropes to save the love team from being Dr. Morgan and Sad Ako's meal!

With worse gone worse, the gang pushed Tricia and while Brix tries to escape from Dr. Morgan's family, Brix, Nancy, and Tricia escaping themselves while the gang stripped off their clothes to form an escape rope. With Tricia only escaped, the gay guy Vanessa showed up with a bucket of gas to burn the well but wait, both Brix and Nancy are still struggling to escape the well. Is Vanessa out of his mind? But then, a miracle happened, Brix and Nancy were escaped from the well and Vanessa, I mean, Van Diesel, pouring gas to the well!

Oh no! Sad Ako escaped but the gang foiled them and Brix lighted the match and successfully defeated Dr. Morgan's family. Sad Ako appeared and Nancy smacked the heck out of Sad Ako and explosions coming out of the well!

They did it! Mission accomplished!

The Ringtone ending

Everyone's riding the fire truck but wait, why is Mang Aga joining at the top of the fire truck, then who's driving? Uh oh... Sad Ako's driving the truck but oh well! LOL

We had fun enjoying The Ringtone, part of the Spooky Nights series! Horror with a blend of humor just makes it a twisted good time. Now that's a FULL FORCE treat for viewers having the good times roll. This should be a great part on your "How I Spent My Summer Vacation" paper. Just write it that it was just like Spooky Night's The Ringtone! LOL
