Will it still be Pacquiao?

I actually don’t have an idea. I saw one of Ricky Hatton’s fights on cable TV and I got the impression that he displays similar speed and agility our own Pacman has. This Sunday’s result could either go in favor of any of the two world-class boxers.

What I can only suggest is that you watch it with me when I go to CPK Greenhills and Shangrila Mall early Sunday morning to see them box without commercial breaks. The ticket is only P700 and I get a whole box of BBQ Chicken pizza for free. I think that’s a good deal compared to eating popcorn or none at all. I still get to save something for pet supplies. My cat, Tito Red, is turning 4.

By the way, if you want the Pacquiao-Hatton pay per view ticket, just call 725-7377 or 687-7841 to 42.

Sunfest in Ayala Alabang

I’ll be out this weekend for the annual Sunfest at the Makiling Park inside the Ayala Alabang Village. This is going to be a whole day event on April 25 that would kick off with a fun-run in the morning and a series of activities that would keep everyone busy until evening, or the break of dawn, whatever suits you best.

Expect a variety of menu offers from deli to gourmet pizzas, a tiangge of sorts (a friend asked if there would be selling of gluta and diet supplements, well, I don’t really know), fashion shows, heart-pounding sport activities, and I think a musical event at night. One thing for sure, I’ll be out taking pictures, go home and write about it.

My top 3 for American Idol Season 8

There were recent developments for the past couple of weeks in American Idol. The competition was trimmed down to seven after Scott Macintyre was voted out last night. Of the seven, it’s pretty easy to predict who will be this season’s top 3.

For sure, my all-time favorite Danny Gokey will be one of them. He is vocally superior but he has to be careful with the songs he chooses. Somehow, his performances became a bit predictable as of late. Sixteen-year-old Allison Iraheta is perfectly in tune after going through the bottom twice. I agree with Randy that she does remind everyone of Kelly Clarkson. I didn’t like Adam Lambert in the early stages of Season 8. I thought his voice was screechy with his Freddie Mercury-like falsetto. He dressed up before like an evil drag queen of sort in need of an anti-rabies vaccine or a colon cleansing treatment. He was over-the-top ridiculous in many aspects. But what surprised me was this guy toned down his voice and looks when he sang a Smokey Robinson hit. Then his version of “Mad World”. Finally, Adam found himself. He had just arrived home.

A couple of weeks more to go. I’ll be watching over these three.
