DOG’S MEAT. A Cebuano balikbayan who has been away (in US) for many years, came home for the golden wedding anniversary of their parents. While here, he got into trouble with his elder brothers. Cause: He was made to eat without his knowledge dog’s meat cooked adobo style. He was so angry he left this parents’ house and moved to a hotel. “Hibawo gyud siya nga sukad-masukad wa gyud ko motilaw og kaon og potaheng iro,” he said as he left.
BROTHERLY “JOKE.” The elder brother said he was only “joking”. But his brother said: “Joking ba gud na nga nasud man sa akong tiyan ang unod sa iro.” It was learned that the balikbayan brod is founder and president of a dog’s welfare advocate group in the US. Someone in the family said that maybe the elder brother was “testing” the younger brother’s sincerity to his advocacy.
