Lowering the gain really helped reduce the noise from motorcycles passing by👍 Don't they graft the Mango trees there or are they grown from seeds? You were talking about transferring your cell phone number (from Canada) to the Philippines with the barcode card that you get when arriving in the Philippines. Does that mean you can get calls from the US? Are there long distance charges? Is it worth it? Here on the east coast of Florida they collect the feral cats (there are lots of them) and after they fix the cats so they dont reproduce they cut the corner of the ear so they are easily identified if they are looked at again later. Just FYI. Great live replay, took me a couple days..really long live...lol.....Thanks, Michael....Jim

In a good way. I envy you in a way. Your parenting views are spot on. I hope you have a child of your own someday. Oh I didn't know you were fixed. Nice work around. Damn.

Hi from Melbourne Australia. Our house in Angeles City was 134km away from Mt Pinatubo. Once the ash fell it caused severe damage to the roof and airconditioning units in the area. Roxas CIty and Mt Kanlaon is approximately the same distance. Keep an eye out on the weather and ash fall. You may need to do something to protect the outer part of your airconditioning unit and your roof.
