What’s the relationship between the two? Nothing that I can think of actually. I just wanted to integrate the two ideas in one post. (LOL)

Deutz Corporation

Never had the idea that such company exists. I am not related to it in some way or another. I just found it out when I checked my MyBlogLog statistics.

Somebody was searching through Yahoo! Search about Deutz Engine. But he mispelled “Deutz”, that’s why he/she was led to my site. Searching further, I found the site that he/she was actually looking for. In deutzamericas.com:

Since 1876 DEUTZ engines have played a role in the mechanization and development of the Americas.

The first DEUTZ engines sold in the USA were marketed by Schleicher, Schumm & Co, Philadelphia. This company was succeeded in 1894 by the Otto Gas Engine Works, also located in Philadelphia. The DEUTZ engines were re-introduced to the North American market in 1951 by Diesel Energy Corporation. This company became a DEUTZ subsidiary in 1955 and its name was changed to DEUTZ Corporation in 1974.

DEUTZ Corporation is a sales, service, spare parts and application engineering center for the Americas, supporting the DEUTZ product range of 5 – 600 hp diesel engines. Located northeast of Atlanta, GA in the US, we employ 134 people covering all aspects of marketing and support.

Throughout the years we have produced gas engines, diesel engines, trucks, buses and tractors in the Americas. Our engines have provided power to bring in the harvests, to transport people and goods, to bring electricity to remote areas, to mine minerals and to move the very construction equipment that shaped and continues to shape our surroundings.

Quite interesting!….since 1876…

On Valentines Day

I think the blogosphere is getting a bit more like the mainstream media already. I remember when I had access to TV yet, every holiday there’s always a special feature for the particular holiday. Be it Valentines, Christmas, New Year, Rizal Day, Bonifacio Day, etc. I remember when I was yet in Iloilo and listening to special features by Bombo Radyo about say Graciano Lopez-Jaena Day or Evelio Javier Day, narrating about the lives of those two distinct national heroes.

Anyway, cruising the blogosphere, you’ll find special features about Valentine’s Day, from how, what, why love over, under, whatever. Basically, you’ll find it everywhere!

I was frantic, I should make my own Valentine’s Day special, even if it’s unlikely that I’ll celebrate it (when did I celebrate it anyway? :() Yet, this is the best that I could come up with!

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY TO EVERYBODY!!!
