HAVE BAT WILL STRIKE - Juanito V. Jabat   - The Freeman

Currently making the rounds of Pinoys in the US is the following text joke about Erap and Binay.

ERAP to BINAY: Ngayon ko lang napansin, Jojo, we have a lot of things in common pala. Naging MAYOR KA. Naging mayor din ako.

DOKTORA asawa mo, doktora din asawa ko. May naging KABIT ka, may naging kabit din ako. Nag VP ako, ngayon VP ka na rin, NAKULONG AKO, MAKUKULONG KA RIN.

A Cebuano friend in LA e-mailed this joke to me. To pep me up, he said, adding: "There's nothing like laughter to keep us live a bit longer." Haha.

A group of Pinoys want PNoy to step down to reform the government. No need for PNoy to step down. Just step up reforms.

Manny Pacquiao is being groomed for the Senate in 2016. The BIR should hurry up with its tax case against Manny before he becomes senator.

A lecture on the joys of sex was held in Vatican recently, says a wire service report. The resource speaker attributed to the joys of sex the strengthening of marriages. "It could also be the reason why some priests have gone astray," says a professor in psychiatry.

While some senators continue to fire at Jojo Binay, the vice president also continues to ignore them and do things that enable him to score pogi points. Last Monday, he was in Mindanao turning over housing units to calamity victims. Earlier, he was in Tondo doing the same thing. Like I said, Jojo sure knows where to butter his bread.

They demolished the Army & Navy Club building in Manila. I thought they're preserving the old heritage buildings. Kaanugon: -- in Tagalog, sayang!-- this building had seen many historic events in the life of our country.

Bonifacio Janairo, 86, called up to say something about the controversial acacia trees. He said he was a gardener of an American schoolteacher and he helped plant a few of those acacia trees. Most acacia trees, he said, were planted near government buildings like hospitals, school, and public markets.

* * *

"Kanang mga nahibilin nga mga acacia angay unta nga preserbahon," he said. Because they are part of the Filipino-American history. He said every time he sees an acacia tree he is reminded of their connection to our history ("sa ilang kalambigitan sa atong kasaysayan").

OVERHEARD. Continuous heavy rains caused terrible flooding never seen before in many Muslim areas in Mindanao. In some places floodwater reached some houses' rooftops, so reports said. Comment: "So nag-unsa man ang mga Abu Sayyaf?" Reply: "Namahuway unah og pangidnap hadlok maanud sa baha."
