Things are starting to move on the job-hunting front… I don’t want to say anything specific yet though (so as not to jinx it), but it seems like there’s finally some light at the end of the tunnel. If things go as currently planned, I’ll be working again in the next couple of weeks (maybe even as early as next week).

I finished reading 100 Bullets Vol.4: Foregone Tomorrow last night. Finally, there’s some insight to what the Trust is and how the Minutemen relate to them. Although it’s still not clear to me whose site Agent Graves is on, the pieces of the puzzle are starting to fit. The bad side to it is that I have to wait for probably another year to get Vol.5. Still, the wait will be very much worth it for the BEST comic book series currently being published.

So the Lotus Eaters are doing a couple of gigs in Manila. It’s about bloody time! They’re only about 15-20 years too late. Although I think they are one of the best new wave bands of the 80s (for me though, the Pale Fountains are my all-time fave), they are has-beens and now musically irrelevant. I hope there are enough nostalgia fans back home to make the Eaters’ trip worthwhile. Personally, I don’t think the P1,000 ticket price is worth it.
