a record of thoughts

I was watching “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” wherein his guide Claude Tayag claimed that a Filipino is never a Filipino without becoming a Pampango first. The reason why Filipino culture is not recognized overseas is because of the likes of Tayag – an ignoramus.

So it seems that I will be upgrading my cable programming this coming Fall. JoKoy announced on Adobo Nation that Comedy Central is giving him his own show The JoKoy Show. I really enjoy his standups if I get a chance to see him on TV. I even bought a DVD compiling his early rise in the industry. It’s YouTube quality, but it’s fine with me. He’s a proud Filipino (he’s half American) and he’s on target when he cracks jokes about Filipino culture. I especially enjoyed when he told the audience how his mother pronounces his name (JoooSep! JoooSep!)

I will be able to follow Carlos Mencia also, so the additional fee would be worth it. I’ll just have Google AdSense pay for it :)
