FORD FAIRLANE 1964 Model

A 4-DOOR SEDAN, Light-BLue Color, V6 car. If I am not mistaken, this was the THIRD car of my late eldest aunt. Her first car was an old 1950's station wagon. Then this was followed by another station wagon, an orange-colored V-8 fully air-conditioned American car gas-guzzler (that's why it was sold within less than a year) that I vaguely remember from memory. They say that its former American owner committed suicide inside that car... Then followed this Fairlane... Then, a yellow DODGE?/CHRYSLER? Coronet... Some ideas/thoughts that come to my mind: There is a Fairlane street in Fairview?... In the picture, at the back of the car on the other side of the road, the rightmost door of the apartment complex behind the jeepney is the home of the man who committed suicide in JAMES GORDON's tomb in Kalaklan in the 1980's... He was surnamed "LEONG", his father was a former Philippine Constabulary... This tragedy happened just the exact time I was also meditating about suicide!!! I really felt that he "took over my case" & saved me!!! Now, April 20's 2009, CH2 ABS-CBN is featuring the suicide of the family member of one of its news workers... CH2 news is "emphasizing suicide"... CHANCE OR CHOICE???

In the picture, one is facing towards the EAST(?unsure-NORTHNORTHEAST!071009)... So, a neighbor at the East side had committed suicide... Now, a neighbor at the NORTH side (NORTHNORTHWEST)[to the left of the picture] is related to a relatively well-known person, a U.P. academician, whose daughter committed suicide here in Manila in the not-too-distant past... I shall NAME NAMES... This is not to "BE PERSONAL" with others but just to state FACTS & the TRUTH... What is strange is, how did I get to be close (spatially) to these personalities??? WHO AM I???

DEATHS - NATURAL(?) OR UNNATURAL???
I SHALL POST HERE THE PICTURES OF SOME OF MY RELATIVES WHO ALL DIED IN THE PAST & THE NATURE OF THEIR DEATHS... MAKES ONE WONDER...

Pls. check & see again that picture of mine in our Olongapo school - the group of four students in one of my previous postings... If I am not mistaken the woman at the back is LUZ C. from Alitagtag, Batangas who got married to an American serviceman & lived in California. She died in a CAR ACCIDENT(?!) in the past. LUZ I believe was one of if not THE most intelligent of my aunt's sales ladies in her gift shop who all got married to Americans & moved to the U.S.A...

Be ready for more of my revealing stories...

Note the sign about "6X6" trucks. Military get-up was common even among civilians...

CASABLANCA NIGHTCLUB? IN OLONGAPO?

1930's or 1950's

My late aunt travelled first to SUBIC in 1935... Years later, she would follow AMERICAN troops who landed in BATANGAS in 1944-1945 (the 11TH AIRBORNE DIVISION) to ZAMBALES & OLONGAPO where she would found her business...

MINES VIEW PARK 1951-1952

Man flirting with diSASTER of my two AUNTS. My mother (single then) & an unidentified man (not my father) flirting at Baguio's MVPark... Had I been there, I would have pushed a little the man to the left & he would have become a skydiver without any parachute... HISTORY would have changed & things would be completely different... And the place most likely would have been called DEAD MAN'S FALLs... or something similar... MORBID? Actually this is an excellent introduction to the Philosophy/Metaphysics of TIME... How can I do something that will affect the future when I was not yet born then?...
