How are we to welcome the New Year? Firecrackers are banned not only in the Philippines but also in other parts of the world. However fireworks the bigger and huge spectacle of fireworks on top of towers in the biggest cities in the world is not. Bridges in Australia, Eiffel tower in Paris, CN Tower, the Needle tower and other famous towers will surely have those yearly awesome fireworks for all the people in the world to see by the naked eye or be seen through mediums such as television networks and through the internet then followed by stage shows starring your favorite showbiz personalities. That's predictable happenings almost every year. Is there any surprises?
The 31st of December 2012, the remembrance day commemoration for Dr. Jose Rizal is not over yet. There are so many memories pertaining to his life, works and writings. Many photographs appeared in ying-yang and collectors around the world are happy to know that.
June 19, 1861 to December 30, 1896 : Dr. Rizal's birth and date of death. He was only 35 years old when he died? Too young eh? He was born at the time when US Pres. Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) was a famous political figure in Washington, DC. Curios? Curiosity where are 'ya? OMG! Please wake up Rudyard Kipling and his elephant, the very curious elephant who was spanked a lot of times.
Did he really died? Well according to the history unearthed by historians (?) he was buried in Paco Cemetery. His remains were buried in that site although his statue was erected in Luneta (after being confirmed as a martyr and a hero) where he was executed by firing squad .
Anyway, according to the Nuclear physicist named James Watson, in his own personal view that intelligent human beings are spared from death due to the fact that they are used for "breeding."
Alienated? Alienation?
Who knows?
