PLDT myDSL & Nuffnang bring you The Avengers!


April is one of my favorite months.

Not only that I would be able to take a long-awaited vacation during this time, it is also the birth month of my wife.  The very moment April Fool's Day hit the clock, my creative juices already starts to flow not to think of pranks but to plan on how to surprise my wife (again) on his birthday.

For five years and counting, it has been like a superhero task to come out with something different from last year's .  I always see to it that what I'll be cooking up for her coming birthday is better than the previous ones.  If only creative juices or superhero potion are bought in drug stores, I'll take a dose everyday until I can think of another clever idea.

Talking about superheroes, I just remembered that Marvel's The Avenger will be shown in theaters this month. Hmm... I know my wife loves sci-fi, weird stuff and monsters (just some of the reasons why she married me), I hope this exciting hero flick will do the trick.

Incidentally, PLDT myDSL and Nuffnang will have a special screening of The Avengers on April 26 at Shangri-la Cineplex. If you want to score tickets to this event, just click HERE.




When you talk of PLDT myDSL, it can only mean fast internet connection.  And here are some Avenger-like effect that will happen to you if you have fast connection:

Hulk. You can be unstoppable and can dominate online games. You'll be the master of Tetris and all you puny opponents can't do anything but turn into green with envy (no pun intended).

Captain America.  You'll feel like living in the US because you can easily get updates and breaking news about your favorite Hollywood stars and TV shows.  Now, if you can only figure out how to vote for Jessica Sanchez, you'll be two-thirds American in no time.

Iron Man. Like Tony Stark, you can live a bachelor rockstar-like life for a day singing along your all-time favorite bands via Youtube. Ready, sing... "You treat me like a rose, you give me room to grow..."

Thor. I'm pretty sure you love mythology.  And the web is one great place where you can find myths as mysterious as Thor's origin.  Now there is one mystery that I really wanted to be answered, "Is Loki a viking or a bi-king?"

Aside from these fun stuff and great news, I have more good news to share.  Have you heard about PLDT myDSL Great Payday Sale?  This summer is the perfect time to enjoy the strongest connections at home with PLDT myDSL’s Great Payday Sale happening on April 27-29, 2012.  All you have to do is register at the nearest PLDT Home booth or malls nationwide on April 27-29, 2012 with 1 valid ID, no cash out!
