Manolo (www.quezon.ph ) cited me in his blog post; (finally! thanks, thanks!) he prefers discussion on social issues and other substantive matters; and ignores my original videos and silliness; but my stats like original visuals like videos – oh, what’s a blog admin to do? Saw this from the street, 12 midnight, then the news said it’s called a penumbra eclipse. Sumthin’. The photo is original, unretouched. Cough almost gone, I took Lagundi tablets, I confess, I’m almost human.
Penumbra. Use penumbra in a sentence….“The great ordinances of the Constitution do not establish and divide fields of black and white. Even the more specific of them are found to terminate in a penumbra shading gradually from one extreme to the other….
“(H)owever we may disguise it by veiling words, we do not and cannot carry out the distinction between the legislative and executive action with mathematical precision and divide the branches into watertight compartments, were it ever desirable to do so, which I am far from believing that it is, or that the Constitution requires.” (Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes in Springer vs. Philippine Islands.) Lawyers pray in Latin and Holmes. Ngek.
