When Noy is busy, beware
Someone e-mailed me: "You got an unusual title for a column." As unusual as William Esposo's Philstar column title that says "As I Wreck This Chair"...?

The news says the salary of the President has been increased to P95,000 a month. Basic salary. This is the salary which some presidential aspirants spent billions to win.

Sen. Joker Arroyo slammed the slow canvassing of votes. He is angry. He is not joking.

The bishops have given GMA failing marks. They charge GMA with destroying the democratic institutions of the country by allowing patronage politics. GMA is not listening. She's busy preparing for her Shanghai holiday next week.

Sen. Chiz Escudero says midnight appointments are unconstitutional, therefore illegal. Like the midnight appointments made by GMA. "But the midnight appointment I arranged with my girl is legal," said a young friend of mine.
* * *
I call this friend of mine ''young'' because he insists he's still ''young'' at 62 which makes him several years -- no, a few years -- younger than I.

Before I forget, I would like to extend my condolences to the bereaved family of Prudencio Ypil, elder brother of Ben, a good friend of mine. Prudencio passed away last Thursday and will be buried in Liloan Friday (June 4). Wake is at the Benabaye ancestral home in Liloan.

When Noynoy is busy on the conference table, beware ... Beware, don't disturb him. This, is his GF Shalani Soledad learned, or re-learned, sometime ago.
* * *
Shalani said both of them were busy on the campaign trail and would see each other for only brief moments, so she called up Noy to say: "I miss you." Noy didn't answer "Miss U too" like a common lover is wont to reply.
* * *
What did Noynoy say in his reply? Reports say he said something to this effect ... "For that only you'd call me in the midst of a conference?" But Shalani said she understood and didn't feel bad about it.
