There but for the grace of God

I admit there are times when the line between needing and wanting something blurs, as my desire to upgrade or update anything that I have overpowers common sense.
But after going through this slide show I promise myself never ever to complain about anything material of which I would rather [...]
At another’s expense
Around 25 years ago, the homeowners association of a small subdivision called Sto. Nino Village in Banilad, Cebu would sponsor a mass every Sunday. This mass was held at the Village clubhouse, and was attended by most of the Catholic residents of the village, as calling on God had become more convenient. Several priests were [...]
Bayani Fernando is Gone!
At least in Pasay and Makati anyway.
The humongous tarpaulin banners featuring a half body shot on a pink background of MMDA Chairman and self-proclaimed presidentiable Bayani Fernando are now nowhere to be seen on the main thoroughfares of Pasay and Makati.
I have not ventured farther than Makati City this week, mainly because I’m a [...]
Write your congressman.
In the U.S. whenever a constituent wanted to express his opinion regarding bills or issues in his political district, he would be enjoined to write to his congressman. More so if the constituent would like to know how his congressman stands on the same bills and issues.
I had never written to a congressman, because I [...]
The OFW Paradox
I have often wondered how this government, in the span of 6 years, have managed to sell almost everything this country has, most especially its people, to other countries that benefit from the sale while leaving us Pinoys with hands in empty pockets.
This is the paradox of our Overseas Filipino Workers. They brave the heat, [...]
Time to go, Tita Glo
I had come in to work before 8am to make sure I had logged in enough hours to justify leaving the office early. As early as 2pm I saw them forming their ranks outside my office window at the corner of Estrella and EDSA. When I got the text message from Sam saying he was [...]

Bayani BF Fernando is watching YOU.
Government property do not remove. Mere possession of this sign is punishable by law. MMDA.
That is the note lining the bottom edge of this enormous tarpaulin sheet that I have seen in at least three places along EDSA. The one above is on an MRT pillar adjacent to the turnoff to the Fort Bonifacio. I [...]
Third one’s a charm?
Three strikes should get you out of the game, but apparently not if you’re Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
GMA ran when she said she wouldn’t, apologized for cheating when she did and now has admitted that she smelled the stink on the ZTE Broadband deal but went ahead and signed it anyway.
Maybe she thinks since she [...]
Not enough People Power
Sam’s brother Rowley was leading a small contingent of rallyists today at EDSA, so I asked Sam if I could go with them today. I was still embarrassed by the thought of being part of the enormous crowd that brought Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo into power seven years ago, and I wanted to make up for that [...]
