You call somebody a lazy dog or a lucky dog, accuse him of dogging it for failing to do his best or putting on a dog and pony show for nothing more than an elaborate PR pitch.

1. Do not enter the New Year in debt. This refers to personal, not corporate debt. Not only money but kindness should be repaid in kind.

Renowned architect and interior designer Ramon Antonio does all this with tasteful innovation and class, with one swish of his architectural genius. His latest challenge was the home of Dante Go, the affable president emeritus of the Chinese-Filipino Business Club.
