jhrcsr I usually drink Micholob (sp?) but my hubby drinks nothing but a Jamaican beer named Red Stripe. Personally, I don't drink much at all, like once a year or so, and neither does he, but that's what we drink when we do have one.

where do you go this Holy Week?

delaney36 @delaney36 (817) • Philippines 2 Apr 07

A long holiday is coming up. Where would you spend your holiday? Or do you go out at all or just stay at home? I usually stay at home. Just like any ordinary day.
