Riding a Carabao

Friday, March 16, 2018

This picture might be the most iconic from the saga thus far (based on publications' selections).  It was the one chosen as the main photograph when the Coconuter story was featured in newspapers like the Philippine Daily Inquirer and the Philippine Star, and magazines such as Illustrado.

Rushing again while writing this at the internet cafe... A couple of days ago I came upon a family of carabaos. I've always wanted to ride one, so I said, "Hey, why not do it right now?" So I did. The owner of the carabaos wasn't there so I wasn't able to ask for permission. Anyways, no harm was done. I rode the bull of the family. For the most part, the carabao was pretty tame and did not act up while I was on its back, but he did get a little uneasy every now and then. I too got a little uneasy every now and then, haha. The carabao and I got tangled by that rope once; he started to panic, and so did I. Well, I enjoyed it, and all the onlookers got a kick out of me riding the carabao. Carabao riding does get a little uncomfortable around the crotch area though. When I got off, my muscles in that area were sore for a while. Well, now I finally know what it is like to ride a carabao.

dude, re: google adsense, i've read that you can try to email them and request them to reconsider. it's somewhere in their FAQ i think. maybe you should try that

dude, you're brave AND crazy. but what can i say, you're really something.

aside from the *ehem* good looks, you're a really good person.
