Antique design

A for Antique design

A full century is the debate

Some in the arts attempt to halve it

To this alternative asset-loving arm

An antique design is quite a charm.

Gigi Ann said...: I heard someone once say if it was over 50 it was an antique, if that were so, I would be an antique. Do I hear any bids... : )

I love the picture, anything with Eiffel Tower on it is OK in my antique book. Lovely picture for A day.

Thanks for your visit today.; 20 July 2011 at 20:22

Carver said...: Great post for the theme. I always thought that antiques had to be in the 1800s although now that we're in 2011 I guess early 1900s would qualify. It can't be over 50 because that would make ME an antique, ha.; 20 July 2011 at 22:51

Visayan and Bisaya

Bisaya is a dialect of the Visayans, an ethnolinguistic group in the Philippines. Bisdak is a contraction of Bisayang Dako which means The Great Visayan. Or so I interpret it that way. Precision can only be as varied as the hundreds of other dialects existing in the Philippines. Bisdak Bloggers are a group of bloggers who speak Bisaya.

English is the medium of instruction in most private and public schools in the Philippines. It is a significant path Bisdaks take to learn English as their second language. As post-modern media shrinks the world, these Bisdaks meet in the blogosphere and form an online community. The badges and links you see below are examples of this camaraderie of Bisdaks.

We BISDAKS do speak English. In fact that is the main language of our blogs. But we also celebrate our dialect by alloting a post written in Bisaya through a meme that we play once a week. The meme is called Hulagway sa Kinabuhi or Pictures of Life. It enables Bisdaks to socialize in familiar surroundings.
