Iskul Bukol Opening Theme Lyrics

"Konting aral lang konting bulakbol..." Ang kanta ng Iskul Bukol which was the opening theme song ng programa ay isa sa mga hindi mo makalimutan na theme songs sa tv. Orignally recorded and performed by Tito, Vic, & Joey, ito ang tv show na nag-simula ng mainstream highschool kalokohan on tv. Para sa mga hindi na masyadong maalala ang lyrics, heto ay para sa inyo.

Iskwelang kwela ‘to dito’y enjoyable
konting aral lang konting bulakbol
dito nang lahat, madaldal at bulol
dito na nga, Iskul Bukol

Chorus:
Ah hah hah, ah hoo yahh
Iskul Bukol
ah hah hah, ah hoo yeah
Iskul Bukol

Hanggang sa umuwi mula pa sa roll call
lahat ay magulo, but okey lang, it’s cool
dito ay terrible, dito’y buhol-buhol
ito na nga, Iskul Bukol

Chorus:
Ah hah hah, ah hoo yahh
Iskul Bukol
ah hah hah, ah hoo yeah
Iskul Bukol

Coda:
Iskul, Iskul, Iskul Bukol (6x)
sa iskul naming ay sigurado ka
sa happening at sa katatawa
siguradong ang mga pabongga
ang di lang sure… ang papasa

Chorus:
Ah hah hah, ah hoo yahh
Iskul Bukol
ah hah hah, ah hoo yeah
Iskul Bukol

SuperTrump! Your first collectible card game.

"HP 130! Talo ka!" Masayang maglaro ng SuperTrump card game. Yung nilalaro mo was manufactured in the '70s and called Ace Trump Game cards na may kasamang hard plastic case. Sari-saring mga klaseng cards ang nabibili mo: Rockets, Ships, Fancy Cars, Sports Cars, Airplanes, pero ang pinaka sikat noon ay yung Racing Cars. Sa kasikatan ng game na ito, naglabas ang manufacturer ng Ace Maxi Mini Trump Game cards na mas maliit at madaling dalhin. Kasya ang dalawa o tatlong card decks sa bulsa mo. Simple lang ang laro: each player divides the deck, tapos take turns kayo sa pag call out ng mga stats ng bawat card. "HP (horse power) 95..." "HP 130! Talo ka!" So paulit-ulit ito hanggang maubos at maging iyo ang lahat ng cards ng kalaro mo. Siyempre pinaka-exciting pag lumabas ang pinaka powerful na card sa deck, sisigaw ka ng "SuperTrump!", walang laban ang opponent mo kaya dapat niyang i-surrender sa iyo ang kanyang card. Lagi mo itong nilalaro pag snack time, pero minsan na-confiscate ng teacher.

Vintage Postcards: 70's Baguio Postcards

"Padalhan mo ako ang postcard okey?" Magandang tandaan na nabuhay tayo minsan sa panahon na walang email. Tuwang-tuwa ka noon pag nakatanggap ka ng sulat, mas lalo na pag nakatanggap ka ng postcard. Espesyal ang pagtanggap ng postcard, pati yung kartero na nagaabot ng mga sulat mo ay natutuwa pag may postcard na para sa iyo. Itong feature natin ay para sa mga mahilig magpadala ng sulat at postcards noon; tatlong postcards na galing Baguio printed in the '70s.

Gloria Diaz Miss Universe Photo Album: Remembering The 1969 Miss Universe Pageant

"And the winner of The 1969 Miss Universe Pageant is..." Ang pagpanalo ni Gloria Diaz ng 18th Annual Miss Universe Beauty Pageant (held in Miami Beach) noong 1969, ay isa sa mga most memorable moments na hindi makakalimutan ng marami sa atin. Parang biglang nabuhay ang mga tao at muling nabigyan ng pagasa ang simpleng mamamayan.

Sa linggo ng kanyang pagpanalo, nagpadala ng sulat si President Nixon which read: "When America conquered the moon, the Philippines conquered the Universe!" Kahit saan ka pumunta nakatutok ang lahat sa kanilang mga tv sets at ini-replay ang pageant na paulitulit ng ilang linggo.

Dito nagsimula ang totoong hilig ng pinoy sa mga beauty pageants. Lahat ng mga barrio at baranggay ay nagpakulo ng kanilang sariling local pageants, at ginagaya ng lahat ang pagpanalo ng beauty queen. Si Gloria Diaz ang isa sa mga unang nagbigay insperasyon sa mga pinoy; at sa taong iyon nakatutok ang buong mundo sa ating bayan. For the first time in history, nagkaroon tayo ng isang tinaguriang: "World Class Beauty".
