Manny Pacquiao

Tonight on my trip home, I joined one of my officemates who uses our company car. Through the radio, we heard the news and opinions about Manny Pacquiao winning the boxing title from Juan Marquez.

The opinions discussed during the trip are whether Manny's win was indeed a win. He won through a split decision in yesterday's fight.

Some analysts point out that Marquez should have won the match based on their own unofficial scorecards. All of them, at least, respect the decision of the three judges. Pacquiao got one point ahead of Marquez to win the match.

Another discussion was on the report about a lone white car that has been victimizing pedestrians with handbags. This mostly happened in less secure subdivisions in Quezon City.

The driver apparently follows a prey and when he gets the chance, speeds up, grabs the bag, and even drag the unsuspecting victim for several meters. Right now, QC police are on the alert for the white car whose driver will probably just relocate and continue his mayhem.

In closing, we talked about sleeping in the office since the hot afternoons make people weak and succumb to sleepiness. I admitted that I slept just after five while the rest of my companions failed to get one.
