Mr. Ramon Macaranas,

Let me be unambiguous. When I said, "Any subject under the stars", I meant, any discourse that will tickle your brain. Those topics germane and mundane must be kept to oneself.

And if you knew Timbuktu…trivial… you wouldn't even mention the weather of that city in Mali, you know why, because it's a city in the southern fringes of the Sahara where it seldoms rain. That will tell you, the climate is dry and terribly hot.

For your info, Mali is located in the northwestern part of Africa south of Algeria. And your grandma's recipe on adobo, it's petty don't do it. Setting the record straight is not bad taste or an invective to anybody as you mentioned. Part of the learning process. I wouldn't mind thrown curved balls every now and then. I can live with that.
