What’s the differential diagnosis for an average overworked & underpaid 9 to 5 employee being bored by the idea of wealth?

Seriously, I think that’s what happened to me as a 26-year old millionaire briefed the room on how he got from point A to point B (or should I say Point C to Point PhP?)… I’d say I’m  a bit interested, but not all too enthusiastic.

I wouldn’t trade Legazpi for Tagaytay. No siree. Manileños love to drive up there for a decent out-of-towner because it’s chilly AND it’s near. But I don’t get it. There’s not much to see there. Just as the Grand Canyon is nothing but one big hole in the ground, I think Tagaytay won the elavation bet with the gods of topography, who failed to anticipate the need for an 11th commandment: Thou shalt not steal revenue from a neighbor’s asset. If you can’t catch a view of the Taal lake & the elfin volcano from there, what’s there to see? Sure you can visit the restos & bars & coffeehouses, heck you can get those anywhere. The climate? Stand before your fridge, your daddy oh sure can use a break from your begging gas money.

I am getting a daily dose of House, 1-2 eps a day. This is one of the few things you’re never gonna get tired of. If I happen to catch a rerun when I’m seventy, I swear to God, I will fall right into the pit of nostalgia & ehem, how my Veto gave me seasons 1 thru 3 original DVDs. wink wink!

I’m trying to complete all 5 seasons before the 6th ushers in by September.
