Thy shall eat no more swine.

I had a dream talking with a friend that he felt dizzy, floating, cloudy, after eating pork. I think that is the sealing revelation to not eat anymore pork.

Captain Ajit Vadakayil wrote a full post that swine makes someone stupid. I also read that pork is easily digested by our stomach in a fast rate that the energy is useless and meat will only be a burden to the system.

Hindu, Islam, Judaism, forbid eating pig for different reasons. For a Hindu it is holy because boar was one of the avatar of Lord Vishnu. For Islam and Judaism it is unclean.

Well last night I cooked and ate pork chop with cabbage soup.

I know I should not eat pork as per Captain's heed but my reason was, is there Muslim intellectually? Not much compared to pork-eater scholars. But captain said that the reason why Muslim children are not so bright was because of the prayer at midnight. The very act of disturbing a person's sleep is not good for one's well being. It robs the child's precious REM sleep that is crucial for the development of the brain. So even though they don't eat pork, they will be remained handicapped by repressing sleep.

There is nothing new under the sun.

Wisdom and knowledge of the past will echo to eternity. Even words change. Knowledge should be polished, reconstructed. There is no perfect language. As a language serves as a mirror of our minds and not the message of the mind itself.

We are living in the grand theatre in the universe. Play your role.

The best umbrella?

One fold of course!

Considering portability? Take two fold!

How about a pain in the ass because closing on and off every two meters and by the time you get home it is now broken? Get that three-fold piece of marketing toy!

Lesson learned in choosing backpacks.

So I recently bought a counterfeit SwissGear backpack on Lazada which is about 800 and check it in Shopee which costs 300.

Lesson learned on buying backpacks? Zippers. High quality zippers is the most important component in a backpacks.

You zip and unzip it a thousand times until the fabric wears down or until you want to buy another one.

Well at least I learned how to buy online.

Batsoy | Our dog's life

Back in elementary years  we played at the hospital's backyard after our dismissal. It's time to go home and my siblings and I sat on our pick-up truck. I sat on the front seat and I noticed that there was this puppy sleeping beneath the seat. He is a gentle creature, didn't make a fuss as the car starts until we got home.

Dad named that puppy, Batsoy, and where in the world did he got that name? Guess what, it's the very name of the puppy's owner. Batsoy's mother's name is Dalma, dad named her Dalma, for Dalamation or our grandma's name Dalmayan. Who cares!

Anyhow, years passed and he still a loyal friend of my dad. 

Batsoy's death is still a mystery, one day his gone and nowhere to be found. He was not roadkilled nor sold. He just disappeared.

Month's later dad bring home Dorang, a white dog from Tuding. 

Dorang give's birth to four puppies! Three pure white males and one black-and-white female. Yes, they are all adorable. I didn't touch them yet, and I only saw them in pictures but boy are they the cutest. 

I was thinking maybe the b&w one was a reincarnation of Batsoy. You never know.

First take on making sauerkraut.

Failed.

These are my errors:

1. I place the cabbages in a wide plastic container which has a wide surface area to cover, this also makes the cabbage float easier.

2. I fill up a clear ultra-thin cellophane with water which I use to cover and weigh down the cabbages. I did it right but what goes wrong was the cellophane was so thin that eventually tear up mixing the water and the cabbage's water. After three days, the cabbage tastes bland and pale.



What I did right:

1. Clean the cabbage thoroughly.

2. Cut the cabbage in strips.

3. Placing enough salt.


Conclusion

Well, I think that is my error, the weigh bag burst open. Next time it will be first layered with clear cellophane then weighed down with zip lock cellophane filled with water. I think I will add some fruits to add taste.

Shift F3

Here's a quiz, make it all caps in one go.
