The really tough part about PNP Director General Ping Lacson's directive on 34-inch waistlines and physical fitness standards is not so much the crash diets and exercise programs some fat cops have to undergo to beat the immovable deadlines Ping has set. It is the realization of all policemen that what the directive demands is a new lifestyle to which most of them are unaccustomed.

April 1st has come and gone. Twelve (not seventeen) generals and 26 police colonels had waistline over the 34-inch limit.

Objectively speaking, Senate Minority Leader Tito Guingona's call for the resignation of President Joseph Ejercito Estrada was what you might call, rhetorically, a case of premature ejaculation. Put another way, you might also characterize it as an egregious failure to lay the predicate or establish the premises for his dramatic call. Don't criticize him for alleged lack of sincerity or patriotism. Tito Guingona does not have to establish his credentials or prove his love of country. He is a gentleman, a statesman and a distinguished legislator. [DatePublished] => 2000-04-06 00:00:00 [ColumnID] => 133272 [Focus] => 0 [AuthorID] => 1202601 [AuthorName] => by Ricardo V.
