Me, my cousin and my 8 year old son were in Taysan, Batangas to visit a new customer who is into gamecock farming. After the visit it was getting late and I thought we were near enough to Laiya and decided it would be nice to sleep over. Since last year I had been dreaming to sleep over in Sitio Balakbakan, a tiny fishing village to buy fresh fish and rent a boat and do some ocean fishing the boat man calls trawling. It is when you drop your fishing line and keep the boat running so the fish will run after the bait.

So it finally happened. We got a room for rent for P 1,500. Rustic accommodations. Good enough for me. Fresh air, good bed, nice villagers, fresh fish. The boat cost P 2,500 and the fishing rod rental is 200 pesos. We spent 100 pesos on bait. Some squid and some tamban fish. We only had one rod. The fisherman brought his line with no rod.

We had a tiny motorboat. We had life vests. But there was only one monoblock chair. The boat man had his cell phone with him, just in case we encountered trouble.

On the the fishing. At 5:30 we walked to the wet market and bought our bait. By 6am we were off. We went to markers on the ocean. And then systematically lowered our lines. The waves were larger than normal. My son and my cousin were getting sea sick. But we needed to catch fish. First we got 2 fish one after the other. They were small. We wanted bigger fish. We moved on. Later we got 2 again. And finally before going back at 10 we got 2 more.

I wanted to stay longer if not for the complaints of my cousin and my son who were sea sick. But I guess 6 is good enough for a bad day. Another boat man last night told us of a good day he had with a customer last week where they got some 22 fish!

Oh, by the way, all the fish to be caught this way are DORADO fish. The fish we caught were 1 to 2 feet long. We got a total of 6 fish. Noticed these dorado fish were green colored when just caught and turn yellow – black after some time in the boat.

We got back on the beach and the boat man grilled the fish lightly. My 8 year old boy was really hungry and ate the whole fish by himself! Ha ha ha. We found out that the gills can be eaten when fish is freshly caught.

Packing the fish back home I bought a styrofoam container and some ice. Put the 5 remaining fish in and added sea water in the container. Sea water keeps the fish fresher longer. Remember that.

At home dinner time the whole family had some dorado fish. The most expensive dorado I ever got. It’s cheaper in Farmer’s market at 130 pesos per kilo. My in laws found the dorado fish deliciously fresh. It was worth it.

Next time I found out that me and the boatman can leave at 3am with the real fishermen who are in a separate fishing boat with nets. We will just be playing escort and probably have some fish jump into our own boat when they start dragging the net.

By the way, this is the Philippines, so any fish we catch is our own. We do not “buy” the fish we catch… okay? This is bounty from the ocean, free for the taking.

Here are a couple of pictures and a video.

(NaturalNews) This parody cartoon grew out of the idea that vaccines are “shots” that are being increasingly forced upon children and teens. At times, these vaccines are enforced at gunpoint or with the presence of vicious guard dogs — as happened in Maryland two years ago when a court judge ordered thousands of parents to bring their children to court for vaccination or face gunpoint arrest and possible jail time.

We were on a long trip and going home from Anvaya cove. We had eaten all the food we brought with us. We were on zero food. The kids were very hungry. We passed by a Shell station just after the Dau exit and tried to find something the kids could snack on.

My 8 year old boy suggested spicy dilis. Whole little fish, that seemed a good “healthy” snack albeit cooked. But there was none in the Select store. The other thing they had was spicy salmon skin. I’m thinking probably it has good fat in it. Paid 155 pesos for it.

Kids wanted to have a go at it but I said that just like any new food, parents must taste the food first before giving it to the children. I tasted it. Immediately had an MSG rush in my tongue. Then toxic cooked fat… whatever fat that was… it was immensely toxic I reviled this junk food. My 2 boys wanted to taste it for themselves. They did have a bite each and thumbed down at it just like I did. Down it went to the trash can. It was a unanimous decision.

No wonder Spicy Salmon Skin Thailand brand is left on the store shelves at Select… it sucks! I suggest Select to get a clue and not sell this item any more. Just sell more spicy dilis!

We went on a family trip towards Morong Bataan in Morong Bataan past Subic and of course used the new SCTEX highway: Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx). Very nice, very smooth. One can run 140 kph or more on that highway but of course I don’t suggest you do.

I did notice on our way back as the sun was soon to set that there are no lights on the SCTEX highway! Aka, it is not safe to use the SCTEX highway at night? Personally, I would just use the long old way if I got caught driving at night. I have driven back and forth using the old lighted and populated way before.

What happened here in SCTEX? No more budget for lights? Is this some kind of big blooper? When will the SCTEX have lights and be safe to drive on during the dark?

A friend has gone home to his province to see his dying grandmother. She has some form of breast cancer and it has spread and she is bed ridden. Only in her 70s. And she is in pain.

What is curious is every time she has some pain she asks for isopropyl alcohol in some cotton and rubbed on her pain spots. The family just loves isopropyl alcohol.

I taught my friend a thing or two about curing cancer. How they could just go to Vander Gaditano if they had the money and be done with the cancer.

As part of the causes and cure of cancer I taught my friend about the tragedy of repeated use of isopropyl alcohol. Taking the concept from Hulda Clark, isopropyl alcohol on the skin is absorbed and taken to the blood where it is filtered in the liver. A build up of isopropyl alcohol in the liver attracts the fluke worms and they take shop in the liver. The liver is impaired of its blood cleansing capacity and the body is forced to form tumors.

So I asked my friend, are you going to go over there and tell your relatives that drowning your grandmother in isopropyl alcohol is wrong? That isopropyl alcohol causes cancer? That your grandmother needs to do all these cleanses and all this raw vegetable and raw animal food nutrition?

You may just get into a fight, be branded as a know-it-all lunatic… or is it better to just shut up and let the old woman die? Which will be more popular? Which will be appreciated?

As you can see, curing cancer is hard because people have hard wired brains believing in medical fairy tales.
