Finally! You Can Erase Your "Text" Messages From Someone Else's Phone!

Finally! You Can Erase Your "Text" Messages From Someone Else's Phone!

Why it has taken so long, i don't know, but how many times have you been burned by the "paper trail" text messages that are left on another person's phone? Those problems could be a thing of the past with this new application called Tiger Text. 

Tiger Text is an iPhone/Blackberry application that allows you to set how long a message will remain in receiving persons cellphone.  It's up to you to dictate the lifespan.  You can have the message be completely erased upon reading or set it to erase itself after a few hours--how ever long you want it there.

The Catch? Well, because it an application, it isn't technically a "text message" but more like an instant messaging client app.  Tiger Text is available for free on iTunes, the first 15 days of use are free, and you are allotted 100 free messages to try out the app. After that, it costs $0.99 per 250 messages sent over a month or $1.99 per month for unlimited messages.

The application can be used between iPhones and Blackberrys for now and according to it's inventor, they are making strides to make Tiger Text available to most cellphone brands in more countries.

Everything can be forged! 10. Almost all kinds of animals are edible.  11. Starbucks coffee is more expensive than gas.  12. Driving 4 kms can take as much as four hours.  13. Fly-overs bring you from the freeway to the side streets.  14. Crossing the street involves running for your dear life!  15. The personal computer is mainly used for games andFacebook.  16. Where colonial mentality is dishonestly denied!  17. Where 4 AM is not even considered bedtime yet.  18. People can pay to defy the law.  19. Everything and everyone is spoofed.  20. Where even the poverty-stricken get to wear Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger(fake) !  21. The honking of car horns is a way of life.  22. Being called a bum is never offensive.  23. Floodwaters take up more than 90 percent of the streets during the rainy season.  24. Where everyone has a relative abroad who keeps them alive.  25. Where wearing your national colors make you baduy.  26. Where even the poverty-stricken have the latest cell phones.(GSM - Galing Sa Magnanakaw)  27. Where insurance does not work.  28. Where water can only be classified as tap and dirty.  29. Clean water is for sale (P35/gallon) .  30. Where the government makes the people pray for miracles(Amen to that!).  31. Where University of the Philippines is where all the weird people go.  32. Ateneo is where all the nerds go.  33.

Traffic signs are merely suggestions, not regulations.  38. Where being mugged is normal and it happens to everyone.  39. Rodents are normal house pets.  40.. The definition of traffic is the 'non-movement' of vehicles.  41. Where the fighter planes of the 1940s are used for military engagements and;  42. The new fighter planes are displayed in museums.  43. Where cigarettes and alcohol are a necessity, and where the lottery is a commodity.  44. Where soap operas tell the realities of life and where the news provides the drama.  45. Where actors make the rules and where politicians provide the entertainment.  46. People can get away with stealing trillions of pesos but not a thousand.  47. Where being an hour late is still considered punctual (Grabe talaga 'to!). 48. Where the squatters have more to complain (even if they do not pay their tax) - than those employed and have their tax automatically deducted from their salaries.  49. And where everyone wants to leave the country!  FILIPINO SIGNS OF WIT:  1. The sign in a flower shop in Diliman called Petal Attraction.  2. Anita Bakery.  3. A 24-hour restaurant called Doris Day & Night  4. Barber shop called Felix The Cut;  5. A bakery named Bread Pitt  6. Fast-food place selling 'maruya' (banana fritters) called Maruya Carey.  7. Then, there was Christopher Plumbing.  8. A boutique called The Way We Wear.  10. A restaurant in Cainta district of Rizal called Caintacky Fried Chicken. 11. A local burger restaurant called Mang Donald's. 12. A doughnut shop called MacDonuts. 13. A shop selling 'lumpia' (egg roll) in Makati called Wrap and Roll. 14. And two butcher shops called Meating Place and Meatropolis.  Smart travelers can decipher what may look like baffling signs to unaccustomed foreigners by simply sounding out the 'Taglish' (The Philippine version of English words spelled and pronounced with a heavy Filipino accent)such as:  15. At a restaurant menu in Cebu:"We hab sopdrink in can an in batol" [translation: We have soft drinks in can and in bottle].  16. Then, there is a sewing accessories shop called "Bids And Pises" - [translation: Beads and Pieces--or-- Bits and Pieces]  There are also many signs with either badly chosen or misspelled words but they are usually so entertaining that it would be a mistake to 'correct' them like....  17. In a restaurant in Baguio City,the 'summer capital' of the Philippines:  "Wanted: Boy Waitress" 18. On a highway in Pampanga: "We Make Modern Antique Furniture"  19. On the window of a photography shop in Cabanatuan: "We Shoot You While You Wait!" 20. And on the glass front of a cafe in Panay Avenue in Manila:"Wanted: Waiter, Cashier, Washier".  Some of the notices can even give a wrong impression such as:  21.. A shoe store in Pangasinan which has a sign saying: "We Sell Imported Robber Shoes" (these could be the 'sneakiest' sneakers);  22. A rental property sign in Jaro reads: "House For Rent, Fully Furnaced" (it must really be hot inside)!  23. Occasionally, one could come across signs that are truly unique - if not altogether odd. A city in southern Philippines which said: "Adults: 1 peso; Child: 50 centavos; Cadavers: fare subject to negotiation" .  24. European tourists may also be intrigued to discover two competing shops selling hopia (a Chinese pastry) called Holland Hopia and PolandHopia - which are owned and operated by two local Chinese entrepreneurs, Mr. Ho and Mr. Po respectively - (believe it or not)!  25. Some folks also 'creatively' redesign English to be more efficient. The creative confusion between language and culture leads to more than just simple unintentional errors in syntax,but in the adoption of new words,says reader Robert Goodfellow who came across a sign..."House Fersallarend" (house for sale or rent). Why use five words when two will do?  26. According to Manila businessman, Tonyboy Ongsiako,there is so much wit in the Philippines because we are a country where a good sense of humor is needed to survive. We have a 24-hour comedy show here called the government and a huge reserve of comedians made up mostly of politicians and bad actors.  Now I ask you...where else in the world would one want to live?

I HAVE A DREAM

I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification; one day right there in Alabama, little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.

This is our hope.
This is the faith that I go back to the South with.
With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.
With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.

This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with a new meaning, "My country, 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing.
Land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring."
And if America is to be a great nation this must become true.
So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.
Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.
Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania!

Let freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of Colorado!

Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California!

But not only that; let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia!

Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee!

Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.
From every mountainside, let freedom ring.
And when this happens, When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
