Jade Fandiño of mellowdelprado.com emailed me about being the one who bought the sample copy in comicsden!
Yeah, that band Gerry Alanguilan made a cd cover for :)
And yeah, the one with the "cute chick" in their music video (according to az)
You can buy their CD for P100. I'm working out on how to meet Jade...

"JAC STRIPS FOR YOU!" AVAILABLE NOW IN
I went to Ortigas last Thursday to meet someone. After that I went to Comic Quest to propose a consignment. When the ladies there told me I had to bring a letter first and have it approved before it can be decided whether I can sell my indies there I rushed off to look for a PC place where I can type and print out the dang letter.
Luckily I found Pacific Internet Cafe at the Cyberzone in Megamall. As soon as I had the letter printed I ran back down to basement where Comic Quest is. Thankfully the owner Mike Simbulan was there, for he is very easy to talk with. I gave him my letter and 10 copies and told him that it's ok to start selling as soon as his office approves. He told me I can call Monday to know how it turns out.
After that I looked for Comics Central Headquarters (CCHQ) along Katipunan, Diliman. My thanks to Sherry Baet, Joanah Tinio, Claire Villacorta and all my other friends who recommended the place to me. The ladies there are very supportive of indie comics. And they gave me no trouble at all. They just looked through a copy to make sure there's no mature content and agreed then & there to sell. Nice huh? :)
I looked through their Indie Shelf and picked out a P60 indie with a colored cover and another indie called Chop Suey by Claire and Paolo. I wanted to buy a lot of other indies but I didn't that much money at the moment. I'm very happy to see Carpool, Cresci Prophecies and Armor Troopers. After that I went home ;)

How to Get a POSTAL ID
(At least when you're in San Pablo)
(The day before:) Get yer barangay clearance (P20) and sedula(P30?). Have them photocopied. Get at least 3 pieces of 2" x 2" ID pics.
Get yer cute li'l ass to City Post Office by 8:30am. Get an application form, fill it out, stick a pic on the indicated box and stalk yer postman.
ME: (barges at the back of the Post Office) "Which one of you delivers to my area?"
POSTMAN: "...That would be me."
Get him to sign your application form. He told me to have it notarized by a lawyer. I eventually found a notarial service office at the building/house right beside that Big Mac stall in the corner. They charged me P100.
Have the picture-paseted, postman-signatured, lawyer-notarized paper photocopied.
Go back to Post Office. Hand over the oh-so-important paper, its photocopy, the photocopy of your barangay clearance, the photocopy of your sedula, your other 2 pics, and yer money (P150 for the oh-so-important form, P20 for the "documen-chuchu" stamp, P24 for ID lamination).
Wait a while. magpa-kyut. magpahinga dahil sa haba ng nilakad. And maya-maya lang you'll get a brand-spanking new, hot-off-the-laminating-machine POSTAL ID! Wheeeeee!

JAC STRIPS FOR YOU!!!
Release on September 28! See ya at the Sampaloc Lake Park in San Pablo City!
Sorry the release of my indie was delayed! it's supposed to be out last August 31 but my printer ran out of ink! Then when I had it refilled I canvassed for good photocopying deals. The best deal I got is with this shop that's closed on Sundays. Thankfully I'm free tomorrow saturday to deal with this :)
the cover for my indie comic strip publication! 50 copies ready for sale! wheeeee! Should I make more? here are the comments of my friends on the cover:
mccoy: wow nice. parang fhm! :] let me know when it's out. :]
Ariel: Ahehehe... strip tease! :))
Ryan: Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! :D
Gerry: Looks nice Jac! Appropriately naughty, depending on who ever is looking. he.he. :)
Kris: Hahaha! A REAL attention-getter! Keep it up!
Romeo: Jac, hmmm... interesting cover. I wonder if you would want me to color it for you. for free.hehehehe
Camy: it's really cool jac...me like, me like!
joanah: Reminds mo of a movie poster...yung isang movie ni Osang...

Hello! Jac here ;D
My thanks to Azrael, Edgar and most especially Tintin for improving my blog. Grabe, girl na girl! Heheheheh! Piiiiiink!
I didn’t update my blog until I moved the tagboard to someplace more permanent. So there :D
The Campus Tour was a lot of fun. I missed UST so much. And it’s really great to see my friends again. It was pretty amusing when Wilson called out my name across Lacson (formerly known as Forbes Street) because we all thought I couldn’t make it. Ryan was at his usual best teaching the pretty students of UST in a workshop with Wilson. Tintin printed out call cards for us three including her bro John. They look cool! She even modified a pic to make it look like my “jack”(as in “jack&stone”) logo. Syeri sat on my lap when I sat on her chair beside Joanah. The three of us had fun hanging out.
We all had free lunch provided by the UST Commerce event’s organizers. Yummy! We watched Lilo&Stitch as we ate. I felt kinda sad when lunch was over and the movie was not because I never really got to watch that movie. Ever. Derrick went there too and talked mecha with John. He later drove me to the bus terminal when I had to go home to Laguna after lunch. Much appreciated because the bag I was carrying weighed a ton. Hope you guys are doing better now J
I’ve been staying in Manila since September 1 for a sort of project. Tintin is so nice to let me stay at her place! I’m so happy! And her family’s so cool! I’m supposed tp spend twelve days there, meaning two weeks Mondays to Saturdays. But since my dad came home from China also on September 1 and will stay only 2 weeks, I asked to spend the 12 days into 3 Monday-to-Thursday weeks, so I could at least spend Fridays and Saturdays home in Laguna with dad.
Tintin actually let me stay for 2 weeks, bless her! But as I don’t want to abuse her kindness I am looking for another place to stay for my third (and last) week. The best I could find is the old dorm I stayed in Washinton, Makati. They charge P100/day for transients, and if you don’t have an electric fan you don’t have a prayer. It explains why we sometimes walk around half-naked in the dorm. It’s sweltering in there :p
I’m still looking for another place, preferably near LRT Taft. The only other friend who offered a place for me to crash is Azrael. It’s really nice of him, too bad he ain’t a girl ;D
As for the indie, I’ve already printed them out. I just need a clear photocopier, I think they call it powder copies. The best deal I could find is with La Suerte in San Pablo, P1.75 back to back. But they’re closed on Sundays. If they were open I would have been happily photocopying away as I speak. I only hope I could find better deals in Manila. I’m bringing the original printouts there just in case. Joanah mentioned a place in Diliman where it’s P0.60, I wonder though if that’s the back-to-back rate, and if it’s the clear powder copy. Anyway it sounds pretty far.
And one of my clients is asking for a banner quote. I mean they're looking for someone to make them a banner of an ad I made for them. I guess the proportions are like that of an A3. And send it to Hong Kong. If you're interested to take this on email me at jactinglim@yahoo.com

whoa! They're showing RAVE ON CHANNEL 2! (ABS-CBN)
oh, and check this out! it's...funny :D
http://slava.podolsk.ru/flash/go.swf
If asked what song makes me feel all mushy and all...
Please don't say I love you,
those words touch me much too deeply
and they make my core tremble
Don't think you realize the power you have over me
And please don't come so close
It just makes me want to make you near me always
Please don't kiss me so sweet
it makes me crave a thousand kisses to follow
And please don't touch me like that
makes every other embrace seem pale and shallow
Please don't look at me like that
It just makes me want to make you near me always
Please don't send me flowers
they only whisper the sweet things you'd say
Don't try to understand me
your hands already know too much anyway
It just makes me want to make you near me always
And when you look into my eyes
please know my heart is in your hands
It's nothing that I understand, but when in your arms
you have complete power over me
So be gentle if you please 'cause
You hands are in my hair, but my heart is in your teeth
And it makes me want to make you near me always
oh, and check this out! it's...funny :D

okay, i've been checking out other people's blogs (mostly thanks to az's generous links!) and I saw in gerry's blog this:
"Sunday, August 03, 2003
Posted 7:30 AM by Gerry Alanguilan
I didn't see it myself, but I was told that I was on TV early this morning on Magandang Umaga Bayan. I know Ryan, Az and the other guys will be there, but I didn't know I would be. I mean, the ABS-CBN guys never talked to me. Apparently, they used the footage from my PIPOL interview, but mistakenly named me Leroy Lagdameo, Beerkada Cartoonist. I don't understand how they can make that mistake, since it's so perfectly obvious even to the casual layman how much MUCH more handsome, how much MUCH more of a manly man I am than this Leroy fella. This is an outrage, an OUTRAGE I tell you!! Heads will roll! I'll SUE!!!!"
hahahahah! Bravo, gerry! Bravo!!! :D>
