I have been busy looking up on the sales of the Gap Inc. these past few weeks. Unfortunately, its sales and profit continue to slide down (as per Google Finance). Sales from its subsidiaries like Banana Republic, old navy, among others, are distressingly evaporating. Nonetheless, I have this strong instinct that The Gap Inc. would gradually offset its loss of sales profit because the new Executive VP of Design for Gap Adult and GapBody would now be in the helm. Its Patrick Robinson, the new EVP of Gap Inc.- the former Artistic Director at Paco Rabanne in Paris, the former Senior Designer of Perry Ellis and Ann Klein and the former Design Director at Le Collezioni White Label by Giorgio Armani.

Disclosure: I do not own any share/stocks of the company mentioned above. All the things that I have mentioned above were based on my personal observations.

Meanwhile, somebody please try this one out! I wont tell you what it does. But I guarantee you its good.

I just watched a news which was aired in the middle of the day (guess what) and I saw Senator wannabe- Trillanes and Justice Secretary Gonzales complementing each other through giving crispy adjectives among themselves.

Gonzales: Trillanes is too immature to become Senator. I'd rather choose Honasan.

Trillanes: I think Gonzales should undergo psychological examination. He is becoming a threat to his department. He is Psychologically unstable.

Gonzales: See, how he reacts. Really Immature.

**Its really good that they did the complementary statements among themeselves in front of millions of people. At least, counting the ballot boxes and tallying the results of the election would not be sooo boring. And at least, we got a glimpse on how Trillanes reacts on certain agitating statements.

Though, I say, I agree on Gonzales's.

Below are my picks:

1. Discuss topics like feces, urology, proctology, septic technology and odorous body fluids during meals.
2. Adjust the tint on your tv so that all the people are green, and insist to others that you "like it that way".
3. Repeat the following conversation a dozen times: "Do you hear that?" "What?" "Never mind, it's gone now."
4. Sing the Batman theme incessantly.
5. Wander around the restaurant, asking other diners for their parsley.
6. Chew on pens that you've borrowed.
7. Invent nonsense computer jargon in conversations, and see if people play along to avoid the appearance of ignorance.
8. Finish all your sentences with the words "in accordance with prophesy."
9. Select the same song on the jukebox fifty times.
10.Ask the waitress for an extra seat for your "imaginary friend."

I know. I am an iPhone fanatic too. And so as Apple Inc's products. However, its hard for me to ignore the effects of iPhone on iPod sales. Here's a nice post on the issue. Here's another one.

Nevertheless, I know Apple would definitely know what it would do to its products. The only thing that (maybe) would make them a little bit shaky would be predicting consumer's expectations and emotions with regards to the strategy that they would make to its products.

Can't wait to see the real iPhone in the market!

My top ten reasons on saying NO! here:

1. I have to stay home and see if I snore.
2. I want to spend more time with my blender.
3. I have to sit up with a sick ant.
4. I'm going to count the bristles in my toothbrush.
5. I never go out on days that end in "Y."
6. I'm attending a perfume convention as guest sniffer.
7. I'm making a home movie called "The Thing That Grew in My Refrigerator."
8. I'm going down to the bakery to watch the buns rise.
9. I'm trying to be less popular.
10.The President said she might drop in.

How many times do you burp in a day?

I had more than a hundred these past few days. And as of the moment (When I started writing this post) I have been burping over a 120 times. I counted.

Its really irritating. Worse than the politics.

I actually did not vote. I feel like if I am going to vote, I would just put devils on the Government.Senatorial candidates and all of those candidates at the local levels are evils (light or hardcore) but are necessary (though).

Necessary evil like when I had watched 28 weeks later. The troops in the movie need not to kill all the people in the safe area for the reason that only one had the raging virus. But since for security purposes, they actually had this operation red code which means that kill all the living organisms that had got close to the one who had the virus.

The story of the movie is a little bit tragic and frustrating, nonetheless, its entertaining.

Like necessary evils, it actually has different effects. Its destructive. And at times its constructive.

I am not saying though that burping is balanced in terms of its good and bad effects. Its satisfying when I burp. But burping hundred times is very annoying.

I would rather have an earthshaking fart.
