September Is Pivotal

The number of new Covid cases at least in the Capital City, is peaking and recoveries are showing that vaccinations are helping. I am preparing Mother for her second dose which might be scheduled at the end of next week. Meanwhile, Jansen & Jansen released a statement regarding their single dose vaccine which was what I got. They are recommending a booster shot after 6 months. Which leads me to ask why they made it a one-dose vaccine in the first place. 

Isko and Bongbong Marcos both announced their intentions to run for President of the Philippines in the election of 2022. I wont vote for any of these two. Both are weak on morals and opposition to Duterte policies. If you're considering any Marcos candidate for any position in government, you should have your heads checked. The viable candidates for me are Leni Robredo, Antonio Trillanes IV and Leila De lima (who as I write this, is still in jail for investigating Duterte). 

The 2022 Elections for the Presidency is very important because Marcos is trying to come back to power, Duterte is trying to avoid justice, corruption and ICC investigations, and getting Leni Robredo and the opposition back in power is key. If the elections are free and clean then I have faith in Filipinos to vote for decency and a clean government.

September 30 is the last day to register for the elections. New voters should take time to go the COMELEC offices in their municipalities. It is again that time to exercise our power to choose leaders who will serve the people and the country, first and last.

Password Issues On Ubuntu Login

I found myself unable to enter my login credentials when prompted to do so in Ubuntu. I think I might have changed it then forget about it. I've been running the current session for more days than I should have. I forget. So what's the solution to my problem. How do I get in to my system now? It involved getting into the grub menu somehow. I am uncertain as to how to do that exactly in your system. So there's a couple of ways to do it (finger's crossed). When booting at system start, use the esc key or the shift key. The first one worked for me. The timing is key. Wait until the bios banner shows then hit the esc key once. I am using Ubuntu 22.04.4 here. I have a current version of grub. The grub menu will give you options and the one you want is: root. Yes you want root privileges to set the root password. It should give you a terminal access where you can issue commands. Type: #mount -rw -o -s remount / ==> this command mounts the filesyste...

2024 So Far

I have a feeling of moving earth or walking off my itchiness. The growing fat in my belly tells me I am failing on many occasions to give in to this urge. My eyes are blurred by morning glory. I remember my father having the same ritual in the morning. After his weak stroke, he couldn't speak much, just a grunt but he would demonstrate with hand how he liked to wash his face. The weather wasn't helping. It's been raining cats and dogs the past week. The province of Rizal was soaked and spilled volumes of water into the bay and Laguna lake. Our Caimito tree was cut to no more than 4 feet from the ground. It was towering above the corrugated sheet metal of our roof. Now it lay horizontal on the yard. I calculated it could be made into a whole table and chairs set by a talented carpenter artist. I showed Lino the two big pieces of trunk that could only be moved if cut by a power saw in place. The road widening project in San Mateo was in the middle stage. One side of the road ...
