The original Napkins & Roosters Blog
Naga,Naga,Naga
(1) Early to rise,
Some may remember the movie ( One flew over the
Coocoo'sNest).
A schizophrenic Native American man who pretends to be deaf and dumb so that everybody will ignore him narrates One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. The novel begins the morning that a new "Admission," Randle McMurphy,
is introduced to an insane asylum where Chief is the longest-residing patient. McMurphy is larger than life, intelligent, and observant. He stirs up the ward immediately by introducing friendly competition—gambling—and encouraging the men to rebel against the petty rules created and enforced by Nurse Ratched.
Well here I am in Naga City, the Philippines, starting week three, I am quick to declare it may be my cuckoo nest, OMG!
The life here is simple you rise with the roosters, maybe by the millions, at 4:30 am, yes that's AM!
I think of all the money I saved on an alarm clock?
It's almost like the ( the boys to men in harmony, the roosters of course ).
Now, that you have woken to the amazing harmony, next it's a bucket shower, yes I said bucket shower, with room temperature water, eke!
shower's, air-conditioning, and no roosters; now I truly feel I am narrating my own CuckooNest ( or living it )?
So here I am in this freakazodial world ( the York dictionary says freakazodial means what ever you want it to mean ). In starting a new life with the fantastic Rowena; one of my goals is teaching English, spelling, sentence structure and public speaking to children? What do you say this guy can't even write a complete sentence?
Yes, I admit to being thrown out of the 4th grade twice,
and the 9th grade at sixteen. So now you know I am freakazodial, just see what the kids think? www.youthspeakingtoamerica.zohosites.com.
Truly, I believe the children of the world should be learning:
With these tools ( Building the toolbox) will allow any child to compete in a new Ai & machine learning world.
"A Toolbox is an imaginary place ( your brain ) where you store lessons and knowledge; then as you grow, each minute, each hour, or days, that tool is no longer a lesson or a dream, it is life! "
So my friends, just in case you have not noticed that the driverless cars, trucks, boats, robots are coming and so much more means they ( the children ) must be " Building the Toolbox " as in the next ten years the world will change, beyond anything we know today.
Yes because the world of Bitcoin, and 
Blockchain, and cryptocurrencies are here to stay. The world is
changing before our eyes; a robot
could take your job if you have not FILLED YOUR TOOLBOX; we the adults must see they ( the children ) are prepared!
With the creation of Weebeworld, I will mentor and teach as many children as possible.www.weebeworld.zohosites.com
This is a completely free program, sponsored completely on
my dime!
If you know someone with advertising, computer and money skills (possible sponsorship), please send them my way.
(2) Sarcasm and humor lost?
So if you're still reading this epic adventure,
you are brave, or you feel sorry for me??
Now, this adventure includes eating, of course. So here in the brave new world, you must experience the delightful foods and napkinolgy?
So of course eating includes napkins? Yes in the photo you will see I believe is the world's smallest napkin?
Yes smallest.
Of course, my sarcasm was lost when I asked the server at the ( Bora Hut)
why they served half of a napkin? I am sure he missed my point because he spoke Tagalog, with limited English. But to be fair, I speak only one word of Tagalog (see).
Does one have to wonder ( if you care ) what was the motivation for this napkin? Even a baby could not wipe its nose with it?
If you ever venture to Naga, I am sure you will find this napkin issue of relative importance, with some injection of your humor (sarcasm).
Is it truly too great to not need a car? If you thought N.Y. or L.A. traffic was bad, Try Naga?
Here you don't hail a cab, oh no, a Jeepney or
tricycle.
Yes it's like the giant Bigwheel
you wanted as a kid.
But the real fun of the tricycle is you can tie almost anything to it.
Yes, it's like Ripley's Beyond Belief made for TV. In America you buy a pickup truck to go to Home Depot; haha, not here, just tie your lumber, iron pipe, mattress, bedpost ) without gum to the top, sides, or even the dog to the top like Mitt Romney.
Yes, for you and the misses, may travel to most places for just twenty Piso; beat that Uber? And you don't even need an app.
Now, if you're lucky, you will find a driver who knows where Starbucks is, yes it's may be the only place that resembles America, and the napkins, just real. True it may be the only place in Naga with real adult size napkins. Sorry, this whole napkin thing has scored my brain. Thank you Starbucks, I can buy real coffee in a bag; so I can enjoy the crooning roosters, and yes barking dogs, and hopefully, the kids are still sleeping, at 5 am.
So where is Amazon? Maybe lost in the Bermuda Triangle? In Naga, no one ever heard of Prime, or free two-day delivery, it's 30 days if ever.
When I see a tricycle with a 4 x 8 straped to the roof, I think Amazon is coming, or maybe the next Wright Bros. team will travel to Mt. Isarog for a test flight?
Wow, 30 days is almost up; my bicycles are to arrive in Manila, yea. I am ready for some training, then on to Mt. Isarog on my Marin Mt. Vision mountain-bike.
Ok, so how many of the readers think a 76-year-old cannot ride from Naga, about 9 miles, then climb the mountain, then 9 miles back? Stay tuned. But don't forget it's downhill on one side!
The adventures are just starting; from roosters to napkins to Starbucks and, to Mt. Isarog, about 6,900 ft' or 2000 meters stay tuned. Maybe I should carry an oxygen mask
in my camelback? 
The Camelback carries fluids, tools and more. Soon it will be time to strap on my mountain-bike shoes?
And you are so brave if you read this far?
