    • If that is the case with Alexander the Great, I wonder really why he is called the Great.

      Though, for those who died and were declared heroes or great, they never knew they became one. Their greatness or heroism is always recognized once they are are dead.

      Sad, but this is always the case, and I think you will agree with me.

      In your 30 years of life , you were happily married, but Alexander died . What a contrasting life you and Alexander experienced. 🙂

      • Yes I agree with you. What is even sadder is Alexander’s is sort of a mystery. Have read different accounts and some say it a murder and others say it was a disease. And as if his death was not bad enough, what they did to his wife and child after he died was even more horrific. He sure wasn’t treated as if people thought he was great!

      You can never win over an airhead. It is already inculcated in his head that he is right and no one can beat him.

      Sad, that this attitude is what people don’t like in a person. he is being laughed at or hated when he turns his back to the people he was with.

    Each and every individual would like to have a good name, fame and  image in the society and to achieve this especially when we are in business or […]

    • Actually, the best thing to do to be able to build your financial credibility is to live simply.

      By living simply, means you get to pay your bills on time , buy what you only need and be able to save some for your future or a big want like a car.

      Indeed, paying ahead of the deadline would create an image to the credit company that you are a good payor. Even without asking for an additional credit limit, they will keep calling you to avail of their low interest loan.

      Why should you take the loan on the first place, when you have no need for it.

      So, better yet, never entertain them, lest your debt will increase if you take them being enticed by the little interest.

Sometimes, we cannot find fault with the sites when they close their shops for the reasons beyond their control. But, most of the time they pay for what is written with great respect.

    It is really great to taste some of the items meant exclusively for summer season after a gap of 26 years. Whenever I happened to visit my place I was missing them for want of time or in a hurry of spending time […]

    • Useful information on what food one can consume in the summer months which is very helps the body especially in the during the opperessive summer heat. I have tasted ragi dosa and ragi soup. But have to taste the above two items. I have heard about ragi balls which are consumed on a regular basis. Ragi is very good for our health all through the year and so are lentils. I have also had the fortune to ear jawar roti and corn roti too. They make the stomach feel light compared the the wheat roti.

      They are famous in the semi arid region of the Telangana too. In the recent times I have only had ragi soup. I am having different variety of food which is especially light on the stomach and fruits too. Another two months are there then I can await for the rainy season. Till that time I will spend time tasting food which he light on the stomach as I do not feel hunger due to the extreme weather. It will cross forty degrees now. Thanks for the share.

    • I only knew about roti paratha, is it from India too? But the common one I like is biryani rice with sea foods. The rice water is comparable to rice wine in the Northern Philippines, but I have not tasted it. It does not appeal so much to me because of the appearance.

    • With the passage of time, we have got away from many traditional foods, which were based on the weather, and kept our bodies stronger and nourished.
      Now, we fail to get enough nutrients. Use of Processed flour(Maida) worsens our situation.
      Such traditional foods are making their way back into our day to day eating habits, but a lot still needs to happen.
      Thanks for sharing this post.

    • True summer has its own food and it should be something soft and rich in water and vitamin d among other things, to consider. Thanks for the share and the information and making our summer more healthy and interesting, though some may not stick to this diet but I guess writers should since they know

    • sorry but i hate kfc theya re full of oil, sometimes the chicken is notwellcooked and smell like old and the service is horrible, for the price the price is too much to the food hat you eat with that low quality, I will never go kfc again, and when i complain they do not care, omg how bad they are

    • @trees

      Oh is that so? Well here, maybe because there are a lot of competition, restaurants would really make their fried chickens delicious.

      KFC fried chicken here is delicious. Although, since I have my favorite which is a local one from here, I rated it a little lower.

      So what restaurant in your country, offers the most delicious fired chicken?

    • “nakakagutom naman!”

      I can’t help but shout this in our language.

      When Bon Chon opened, we tried it and I liked it because of its sweetness and I’m a sweettooth. But, if eaten often, its sweetness is a bit overwhelming.

      I like KFC, not so much for their fried chicken, but for their mushroom soup hehe.

      If I have enough money and I am with my family, we surely will go to Max’s.

      But if I have limited money, I’d always take the Crispy Chicken Sandwich of McDo. i also love its apple pie.

      Din, what’s DIY? Sorry haven’t been to this place yet.

      Jollibee, a ‘playsafe’ kind of place. If you don’t know what to eat, go to this place.

      How about Army Navy?

      • @Ruby ,

        Ate Rubs, yes I am sure those that have read this, will surely say that “nakakagutom”, (made me hungry?) I don’t know how to put it right in English though. lol

        Really, you like Bon Chon’s fried chicken. I have this taste for chicken which should be a bit salty but not sweet, though if it is of sweet and sour taste, I would surely love it. You have a sweet tooth indeed, since you like it.

        DIY Burgers , which literally means Do It Yourself Burgers , is a restaurant that serves very big burger and you can customize what to put in your burger by choosing what are those stuffs you want. For every filling , there is a corresponding amount. he he he

        And just like you, if it is a family outing and have a big budget , we will certainly go to Max’s .

        But if not McDo or Jollibee would be affordable yet so filling already. 🙂

    • I haven’t tried Bon Chon though it was opened months ago in mall here. I don’t like sweet chicken. Of those you mentioned, I (we) like Max’s best, though the other ones are cheaper. My next choice is Jollibee chicken. Thanks for the review, and yes, these companies should pay you for endorsing their chicken!

    • I like it so much.

      • @Mohammad Rafiq Akhtar ,

        Which one of those do you like much? I have enumerated and described 6 different stores that serves it.

        Do you like the breaded fried chicken or the as it is fried chicken?

        In your place, what are those stores who serves delicious fried chickens?

        So which one do you like going to, to eat fried chicken. How much do they cost? Do they come with rice and a coke too?

    • Is fried chicken one of your favorites too? For me, it is. It cannot be helped that when I go to the mall I would always choose fried chicken with rice budget meal.

      That price of $5 is expensive compared to the fastfood outlet’s budget meals for 2 piece chicken, with rice , gravy and a drink.

      Though for the fine dining restaurants, the are the same for their budget meal of chicken with side dish, a dessert and softdrinks.

    • Like they say you never know what you are loosing until you loose it. It is very sad to think that her friemds could actually treat a fellow friend the way they did. If they would only be a bit considerate.
      But that is usually a problem when you live like 2 3 in a house or apartment that is bound to happen. There are those who will feel like they arw superior to everyone else. So they may take it that everybody else should do chores but they shouldn’t, that attitude is very annoying. I would expect everyone to take responsibility in the house and also help out whenever need arises. It was unfortunate that keery was no more. The thing is now they are the ones who will have to live with the guilt of doing her wrong. Kerry did her part and she doesn’t have to live with any guilt.
