Mar at last

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

Rev. Fr. Leonardo Polinar, a popular charismatic priest from the True Vine ministry, says: "We arrived in this world with nothing, so we will leave this world with nothing."

Fr. Polinar says: "We are all only caretakers of God's properties in this world." Right. But some caretakers are smarter than the others. They take advantage of God's kindness by keeping to themselves God's properties like the multi-storied condominiums, shopping malls, beach resorts, plush hotels, etc.

This headline here says: "LP still hopeful Poe will team up with Mar." See? See? Didn't I say that the delay in PNoy's anointment of Mar Roxas was Grace Poe's also delay in saying yes or no?

It says here that Grace Poe share's PNoy's Daang Matuwid reforms advocacy. The istambays in my barbershop chorus: "Naa man diay na ma'am nganong paigot-igoton pa man ang tubag."

The so-called "shake drill" in Metro Manila was to boost Manilans' preparedness or readiness to stand up against a 7.2 magnitude earthquake. What must be done, one leader has suggested to MMDA to invite some Boholanos and Cebuanos who had experienced a 7.2 magnitude quake to give a lecture on what to do and how they survived the shake.

It says here that a Mar-Grace tandem is still possible. Isn't that what I've been trying to say all the while?

VP Jojo Binay says (in a news story) that he can beat Mar Roxas in their skedded second meeting again. My friend Ronnie (second name withheld upon his insistence) says he wants to see this happening. "But then again there's the Katzerjammer Kids blocking his way in the Senate," he says sadly.

I heard Atty. Mel Santa Maria of TV5 discuss the presidential issue after Sec. Mar Roxas' endorsement (at last) by PNoy and I saw and understood the points he stressed regarding the presidential race. He was right when he said 2016 is still far away and many things -- including the expert's analysis -- can still change.
