Patindi nang patindi ang political cheezmaks given na dalwang buwan na lang bago mag-santacruzan. According to the cheezmaks grapevine, Noynoy’s strength is his “purity” so that’s where they are trying to hit him.
Eto ang mga cheezmaks na binandilyo sa Barrio. Husgahan kung tama ang mga to:
ONE – malaki ang cheezmaks na meron daw CD na ikinakalat ngayon na ang title is “waland bahid walang duda BUDHI” (credits to liberdad for the correction). These CD’s daw are being distributed sa lahat nang local government units in the country, kasali na …

Everyone in the media knows Lito Banayo’s in Erap’s team. And we note that he and his teammate Dacky Paredes have been attacking Villar consistently. Sometimes I wonder just how much patience everyone has for this billiard game – You hit the cue ball: Villar. All the other colored balls that move in chain reaction from the cue ball either fall into a target basket OR go rolling to some other direction. That takes patience and steady nerve. How …

I’ve worked in the public housing industry in the United States for many years, overseeing housing investment tax credits and low income housing programs, which is why I would love to see a similar type of program be introduced in the Philippines, if there isn’t any in place. I’ve searched some government websites but I could not seem to find any information about affordable housing programs in the Philippines, I guess affordable housing programs are still called “squatters”. But even that is no longer affordable. You get evicted anytime. Popular …

To all ya’ Capiz residents… Joc-joc Bolante wants your vote. I guess para tuluyang i-fertilize ang kahabaan nang C5 Extension?! Not sure. Anyway… he partnered with Manny Villar. Here he is.

If winning the Presidency will have to be based on debates, I’d say, Gibo wins it hands down. In the past debates and forums, he’s always been prepared, well-spoken and knows what he’s talking about. I’ve always admired Gibo in terms of his credentials. But see, he’s got a baggage I don’t like. And at the Presidential Forum in DLSU, he was toasted, grilled and barbecued. Not his day. Here’s what I gathered from the news: (GMA News) and Inquirer)

Failon asked:
“Is there something for which President Arroyo should be held …

Here’s what drove the Senators to make bastos each other sa Bastusang Pambansa. It’s a nice presentation (thanks to GMA News) to truly understand how all these liko-liko, balu-baluktot highway seemed to be looking for something and it was not even the original plan. Sometimes, you begin to wonder, bakit kaya ganun ka-blatant sila by doing this? I would guess, because there has been so many of them in the past who were able to get away with blatant corruption, otherwise, why would politicians do what they do no matter …

Nagulat ako with all these news na para syang puzzle and I put them all together at eto ang nakita ko saking bolang kristal na nakabitay between my legs:
“The Philippines budget deficit soared 17 percent above the official target last year as spending rose to offset the impacts of the global financial crisis, an official said Monday. The deficit hit 293.2 billion pesos (6.35 billion dollars) in 2009, equivalent to 3.7 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP), a finance department official, who declined to be named, told AFP. This …

So… wer wer wee sa senakulong nangyayari sa Bastusang Pambansa???
“He was trying to buy me off!” Teks saken ni Juan Ponce Enrile.
Huh?!
“Eh, ba’t di mo tinanggap?!”
Wala pang sagot si Enrile.
Duda ko, ninakaw na naman ang load nang lolo nyo.
Forget muna naten na ETHICS ang bloody topic sa Bastusang Pambansa mga kabarrio, and most of them were unethical anyway. Anak nang leche talaga oo! Turn of the century parliamentarian role models! Pwe!
Anyway…
“If you want to become president, you have to act responsibly and show leadership,”
Yan ang say …

“I rise on a question of collective privilege on a constitutional issue that affects the integrity of the House and it is very ripe to continue existing.
In the course of the fight for the speakership, Rep. Agapito Aquino, chairman of the reform bloc, raised questions regarding the fitness of Rep. Villar to seek the speakership. Rep. Villar chose to answer the charges but he was overwhelmingly elected Speaker by this House.
Successful election, however, does not answer the questions nor lay to rest charges of wrongdoing, not in government of …

NOW WHAT?!
My problem with these corruption cases and what really pisses me off is that: WHY DO THEY CATCH THEM AFTER THE FACT when most plunderers have already benefited from stolen public money? WHERE IS COA? THE COMMISSION ON AUDIT?! How come there are no proactive moves from the government to stop corruption? With dozens and dozens of legislators, senators, congressman and a lot of departments here, chairman there, secretary here, does anybody from the government knew and/or heard about “PROPER INTERNAL CONTROLS” or was this knowingly and blatantly erased …

There ought to be a law. Congressmen are allocated P70 million a year as pork barrel, on top of their regular pay, allowances and benefits. The least that congressmen can give back to their employer, the Filipino taxpayer, is to work on legislation in between the many lengthy congressional breaks throughout the year.
In many government offices, there are so-called “15-30” employees: people who are seen only during payday on the 15th and 30th of every month, to collect their salary. Negros …

With the 2010 Malacañang Got Talent (sa Pagnanakaw) Show coming, I thought that it might be appropriate to republish my cartoon about the current champion’s visit at the White House 3 months ago.

Hold the tomatoes, please!

“Filipino scholars’ abroad urged to return to the Philippines and share what they have learned to help improve the country’s academic and industrial sectors. Helpless Filipino politicians??? Sounds charity for the love of country.”
Seriously, if any local or multinational company or university in the Philippines hires me, I’ll go home. I am available. Bakit, sino bang ayaw umuwi? But not for charity. I don’t have any financial darna skills to increase my kakarampot na negative net worth to a million in just a year.
Now, Senator Edgardo Angara just …

Noong Setyembre 29, 2009, nagtalaga ang Department of Trade and Industries sa ilalim ng Republic Act No. 7581 The Price Act ng ceiling price sa basic commodities. Ang pagpapahinto ng presyo ng basic commodities ay dala nakaraang bagyuhang Ondoy para sa mga nasalantang biktima.
Mula Cordillera Area Region, Region I-IV, itinalaga ng DTI ang paghinto ng presyo sa itinalang ceiling price na nakalagay dito. Nakapaloob dito na sakop ang palengke o wet markets at grocery stores.  Nakalagay din dito ang ilang manufactured goods na maaring bilhin ng mamamayan.

I’m sure, all of you out there who has an email account, must have been bombarded already with a lot of emails na mayaman ka na dahil natigok ang tyuhin mong di mo kilala who left a billion dollars in an offshore account. There has been a lot of iterations of these bloody emails already. These emails started sa Nigeria, andyan yung naging Korean na sya, naging Chinese, then naging Hungarian – remember all these .ru emails? In fact, naka-receive pa ako na …

Sa mga kasama sa Barrio Siete nais naming ipaabot ang pasasalamat sa inyong pakikidalamhati sa aming Bayan hinggil sa banta ng Mina salamat, sa inyong pakikisangkot at kampihan kami sa lanag ito! Nais ko lamang ipaabot ang sulat kung ito sa mahal na PGMA, sana maipaabot ito sa pamamagitan ng Barrio Siete!
Lubos ang paghanga ko sa kay Pangulong GMA sapagka’t ipinangangalandakan niya sa buong mundo na ang Pilipinas ay isa sa mga pangunahing bansa sa Asya na nagsusulong na matugunan ang pandaigdigang suliranin sa CLIMATE CHANGE, at hiniling ang pakikiisa …

I remember nung bumalik ako sa Estados Unidos piktapos nang dalawang linggong rampa sa Manila. Yong bespren ko na really, really, reeaaaaaly close saken made my phone roaming. Para daw piso-piso lang. Ah – ok. Long-term piso relationship ang tawag nun. Meaning, pag me piso ako, on kami. Pag wala, litsi! Alam mo na yon! Hmpt!
But now? Pati ba naman teks eh babanatan nang five-centavo excise tax?! Ayuffff! Instead na asikasuhin na ibalik yong mga kinamkam na kaperahan nang mga impaktong [insert notorious political family’s last name here] eh mga …

I was mum. There’s a new war brewing over the horizon. And I, Anakanang Skywalker, was not up for it.
After that inter-galactic war of the not-so-distant past and some short intensity conflicts I eagerly joined for the Barriotic cause, I am not quite sure if the men are ready for yet another battle.
Personal reasons are also prominent more than just the practical. I have friends on both sides. My allegiance goes to the empire, to which I served and fought dutifully, as well as to some newly-acquired friends who calls …

You read it right. What was the teacher’s role, Jena Isle, in the 2009 Emerging Influential Blog Awards by Janette Toral?!

My entry today, focuses on Jena Isle and her role in the 2009 Emerging Influential Blog Awards by Janette Toral. I have reasons to believe that she holds the biggest key to the questionable sprouting of Chem Bloggers blogs in favor of Jedi Bloggers who “won” the awards. Jena Isle claims that she is a teacher and we believe she is. Her blog or most of her other blogs …

Apparently, the Jedi Bloggers decided to get the services of an American blogger as their Spinmaster of the 2009 Emerging Influential Blog Awards by Janette Toral. Here’s a short (real email – not the full contents) conversation:
“As long as nothing in the encouragement of these students to vote for the Jedi Bloggers was against any of the contest rules, then what’s the worry? I’d just ignore it. It’s sad that RE wants to put a taint on the winners.”
“Reynz voted for my blog. I did not reciprocate his gesture. …

Last month ay binuksan ko ang aming munting business. Bago dito, punong puno ako ng excitement at determinado akong maging success ito. Andun syempre ang support ng aking better half na di nag-atubiling  bigyan ako ng capital to start the business. Akala ko okay na.
Eto at two months na ang aming negosyo. Ang dating pangarap ay naging reality check. Ang hirap pala mag-business. Kung ikaw ay sumasahod na ng malaki sa isang kompanya ay naghahanap ka lang ng sakit ng ulo kung ikaw ay magnenegosyo pa. Easy option pa rin …

Ano ba talaga tong multilevel or “network” marketing plans? Well, isa syang way to sell goods or services through distributors. Typically, etong mga plans na to is promising you na pag nag sign up kayo as distributor, kikita kayo nang commissions – sa mga benta ninyo at sa mga mahahakot mong bagong miembro na magiging distributors also. Etong mga recruits nato eh tinatawag na “downline” mo, kasi, nasa baba mo sya eh.

Meron bang recession sa barrio siete? Malapit na nga ba tayong mahulog at sumama sa mga Bansang kumakampay sa dagat ng recession kagaya ng US?
Sige seryoso muna tayo. Aayusin ko muna ang maluwag kong turnilyo. Class, lecture muna.

May mga nagsulat tungkol sa topic na ito na walang kamuwangan sa ekonomiya kaya imbes makatulong, lalong nakalito.

Ayon sa balita:

The National Statistical Coordination Board reported that the economy grew by 0.4 percent from January to March, prompting NSCB Secretary General Romulo Virola to remark that the economy was teetering into recession.
