Paulo is back from hiatus! He’s now using the sub-domain “hownow” to further strengthen the brownpau brand, among other things.
Did you know that Mr. Ordoveza is my blogparent?* On the fateful day that was Christmas Eve 2002, I met Paulo during his visit to the Bay Area. I was a faithful brownpau.com lurker reader who jumped at the opportunity to meet the most prolific blogger I knew. He was brave enough to meet me at the local Borders (I could’ve been a crazed serial killer, you know). We were having a nice chat over coffee when he encouraged me to start a blog of my own (now you know who to blame). Two weeks later I hurriedly launched my blog on the first day of the year 2003. The rest is history…
*I see familiar names among the siblings list (Ganns and Arnold, we’re brothers in more ways than one!). Teka, that makes Raffy our lolo! 
Technically, who came first, you or I? Would you be my kuya, or would I be yours?
Pzzzzt! Pzzzzt! Oops, that’d be my brain frying.
I think you came first, kuya!
That’s what I like about the virtual world – I get to be the young ‘un once in a while.
Dang, another thing this week that makes me feel old
Hwehwe!
is it your birthday, raf? happy birthday, dude!!!
