Ginger,

I hope you can post an audio file of the music so we can listen to it.

Yup. In the loo.

That's the best place for comprehension. Especially at the precise moment you work your abdominal muscles to push out your contribution to fertilize the earth to give room in your body for the fertilization of your mind as your brain absorbs the words.

Quote from: Mari on November 12, 2007, 10:44:19 PM
maau man sad moremain a mystery ang identity ni GEC so we can have something to look up to

Some secrets are better not shared
Some identities are better not revealed
Some feeling are better not expressed
Some words are better left unsaid 

Ginger,

Let me invent my phone number first....
something that rhymes with Sigbin's

Mari,

So when's the opening of your internet cafe? I can hardly wait

Get ready with your cam.... and be sure the batteries are fully charged and you memory card has at least 4Gig

Bambi,

Nagkadaghan na mo who thinks I'm Mitzi.

On this thread, I will not admit nor deny. Ha ha ha

Lorenzo,

You'll get your round of chess with me, but don't be frustrated coz I haven't touched a piece in years .  Politics? Sure thing!

Flowers from FedEx? Absolutely.... and throw in a bunch of perfume and cologne to boot

Okay Sigbin, aron dili mabitin

How about Lotsasex?  Absolutelynosex?

There's "listening to musex"

Playing the "sexophone"

And, of course, "who really is SEX of Tubag Bohol?"

Quote from: Macky Ferniz on November 11, 2007, 07:27:42 PM
I thought this topic is related to "The one and only story of Balong".

That's what I thought, too, at first, Daddy Macky.

As in.... The one and only toilet of the balong-balong of Balong 

I did'nt see that "incident".... I only read the subsequent posts about it.
Balong should start posting again. I know he is reading this discussion.

What will they think of next?

1. A condom-shaped office building
2. A pair of urinal shoes
3.

Colors ray nanglupad before my eyes while I was taking the examination, sir.

I don't know about that, Ma'am C2H4.  GEC348 is a much more elusive quarry than I am.  No one in our circle has an inkling as to his true identity.

Isn't there a place in England called Middlesex?

And I think there's also Essex

So it means... buying jewelry for the wife is truly a pain in the pocket?

CONGRATULATIONS, grazie!

You got it right!

Now, really, "WHO IS THIS BALONG OF TUBAG BOHOL?"  This question will fill up additional chapters in Balong's unfolding real life drama.

Abangan!

Ginger, you were there when I made my 500th post   

Quote from: emlegaspo on November 09, 2007, 08:35:05 AM
Blech. Today started out So-so.
But when I got to school , it went downhill.
Project presentation. AND this girl was trying to impress this guy
in my class by throwing the football... HARD in PE.
So, I looked like a fool. Problem, I like the same guy too.

An event like this makes life interesting...

I, too, remember the feeling of how it was like
competing for the same love interest

I remember the waves lapping at the unmoving shore where the seagull made its nest

Quote from: Ginger on November 10, 2007, 07:26:13 PM

Well, well, Sigbin
You did it again
Your words left Ginger speechless
Your feelings for her ageless
The both of you, the future's bright
The both of you, a beautiful sight

Now with that, I'm sure you can already piece the puzzle

Hint: the thread "I was away for 2 days...."

Alek Wek is an ebony chic
With that shiny skin, even a fly won't stick

So you see, Balong? Your life... and the life of these two others have just become more and more interesting!

Post on, dude!

In one of the threads here in TuBo, it was mentioned that there is a love triangle among the group. I had no idea then who are the persons involved.... Now, finally, in this thread I have pieced the puzzle who are these TuBo members in the love triangle. 

Stay, Balong, and share with us your fantasies.
Imagine, this thread has been read more than 5,000 times.
You have a very colorful life.
Even the posts we are exchanging right now as a result of what you did is an unfolding drama in itself.

You have a very fertile imagination and I'm sure you have very creative ways of picking up your story from where you left it with Dorothy.

Quote from: Macky Ferniz on November 07, 2007, 11:12:40 PM
Hi Guys,

I was one day late. It seems I am hibernating from TB due to my heavy work load (it is forecast time again in our company).

I laughed at GEC's description of Sigbin as ‘Optimus Prime’ which is near to exact. Just last night I was playing the PS II version of Transformers with my son. Judging from the facial expression of Sigbin, I could predict his future as a tough lawyer or perhaps a judge 'pohon'. For me he looks more like 'Jagernaut' of the X-men. Delaguna had his composure maintained as being a public figure. But I know inside of him is playing rock n roll. He is good in containing himself.

You girls were terrific!    "Ala Charlie's Angels" local version. However, four of you looks like Lucy Liu, all Asian.

Mike, why have you not told me in advance. Just yesterday, I called my mother and told her that you would soon visit our house. She is always ready to prepare something. My mother is a good cook. My child GEC, why you did not send me an email about this EB. Remember what we have agreed?

So, maybe next time pohon, I could join you.

My rich dad, Macky,

So good to have you back. I myself didn't know there was going to be an EB that day. Melrose did not tie the yellow ribbon around the old acacia tree. Had I known in advance, I would have informed you, too, and we can do our thing

I hope Melrose will tie the ribbon next time... and with ample time before the scheduled date

Quote from: Ginger on November 08, 2007, 04:00:43 AM
GEC, how can you be sure
that Sigbin and I have future

Sigbin has been away
for more than a day
I think he's scared of me

Ginger,

His absence will make your heart grow fonder
All the more you want to be together

I will give you pakpak precious


You are a strong, courageous woman.

Well, RV, I'm sure you had something else in mind when you wrote these lines.
But isn't it that poem are supposed to be like this -- one which the reader can relate to personally and draw his/her own interpretation or experience? The poem is so real to the reader that one  could very well consider it as one's very own?

*blink*  *blink*   

I imagine:  Erap after receiving Sandiganbayan's writ of execution forfeiting his properties to satisfy his P600 Million fine.

Quote from: Glen on November 07, 2007, 01:15:15 PM
GEC ayaw intawn pod me duha Grazie kalimte.Ngee....

Grazie and Glen, you are not forgotten
Your names are sweet which I read so often
And now is the time that you do the rhyme
And we say "Horray!" all at the same time 

Cheers!

O, ikaw na pud Mari.

Oh, I see 
Did Delaguna also stay with the EB until 5 am?

This Mitzi... is she Mitzi Ibaya who writes for the Bohol Chronicle Lifestyle?
So, she too is a TyBo member? What's her username?

True mark of a strong, brave son.

Melrose,

You didn't tie the yellow ribbon. (sob)

I hope you told them you are my representative... he he

Many flowers have dazzled me

Bohol Chronicle Editorial (Nov. 5, 2007)

     

The Chronicle speaks with one voice with 92% of surveyed Boholanos in calling for the abolition of the Sangguniang Kabataan. The entity has become as useless as a refrigerator in hell and has led the youth towards the Road of Perdition.

Infamously, the SK's performance in youth or community projects is as dismal as the Philippine sporting record in the Olympics - a few medals and far between. It is as inutile as Projects deemed "white elephants" - expensive to create and maintain but neglectful of the youth concerns like drug addiction, youth gangsterism and violence, premarital sex and unwed mothers and scores of drop-outs roaming the streets armed with bad intentions.

The SK's constituency (youth) are in a state of neglect while the leaders concoct the equivalent of "Inner Circle" social clubs married to the proposition of advancing their narrow self-interests. Meantime, the SK chairmen collect the equivalent salaries of barangay captains and kagawads, the citified ones getting P 7,000 a month and the poorer cousins in the towns at P1,000- P5,000 a month. Collectively, that translates to millions in useless Government Expenditure.

We thought Imee Marcos in her KB (Kabataang Barangay) time was a political opportunist. But at least the elected youth leaders were required to make professional monthly reports and had leadership training programs. Our SK today is a worse one -and decadent,too.

Decadent - because it corrupted the morals of the Youth so early in their life by prostituting the electoral process that we just witnessed so clearly last Monday during the SK Polls. Supposed to be non-partisan, the SK polls instead brought out the worst elements of politics and made the SK candidates the "interns" to perfect the art of corrupting elections.

It was an ageless political Kingmaker who astutely said "In the Philippines, all politics is local." Having confirmed that hypothesis into theory , the SK became the battleground of older politicians who want to retain or wrest the political levers at the barangay level. Thus like their older folks who "corrupt by example" - they drowned the community with money (P300 per voter) plus (leader and entertainment expenses) and completed the sham of elections whose results are determined by money and patronage politics.

They expect these barangay leaders to be the road runners in the next local and national elections -and return the favor of those who had financed their campaign by getting them elected likewise by hook or by crook - usually by crook.

Aside from the politicians, unfortunately, it is also the parents themselves and relatives with dollars abroad who also contribute to the financing scheme to "buy their children into positions of power." Return on investment? Or just the pride to be have kins called as elected officials?

The Chronicle had rightly postulated that expensive elections is one of the glaring reasons why corruption exists in this country (as in the worst in Asia) because recouping time (for election expenses) means corrupting the dispersal of public funds and projects.

This whole corrupt cycle stinks - both the deserving (but penniless) candidates lose elections. Meritorious projects are set aside in favor of less useful ones but which will benefit the financial and political supporters of the winning candidates.

The SK and the mode the officials get elected stink to high heavens. Shame, shame, shame, Our National Hero Dr Jose Rizal who hoped the youth would be the hope of the Motherland is now squirming in his grave - wanting to rise from his grave on All Souls Day and lecture us about nationalism and public service.

Let's do ourselves a favor -abolish the SK now. By legislation if possible. Calling our Honorable solons.

Battle shifts to brgy.,
SK federated prexies
By KIT BAGAIPO, The Bohol Chronicle
     

Barely a week after the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections, the fight for the presidency of the Liga ng mga Barangay and the Federated SK is on.

Although the elections will not be called until late December or January next year, this early, names have surfaced as contenders for the posts that earn its holder a seat at the Sangguniang Panlalawigan as ex officio member.

Reports reaching the Chronicle bared that former provincial board member and recently elected barangay captain Concepcion Lim of Valencia town is eyeing the presidency of Liga ng mga Barangay.

If she wins in her bid, Lim can serve again at the provincial board which she served for three consecutive terms that ended last June.

However, Lim will be facing incumbent Liga president Dr. Romulo Cepedoza, having been re-elected barangay captain of Poblacion, Danao town. He will be seeking a full term as president of the barangay captain's league.

It may be recalled that Cepedoza assumed the presidency last year after the death of then Liga president Cariso Camacho.
          

Meanwhile, a tough race also looms for the provincial federated SK presidency as three hopefuls have emerged.

Incumbent SK federated president Frances Bobbith Cajes may be bowing out but her younger sister, Jean Censoria Cajes might be taking over.

Elected as SK chairman of barangay Guinobatan, Trinidad town, the younger Cajes will be running with a well-oiled Cajes political machine - with the blessings of her parents, Second District Rep. Roberto Cajes and Trinidad Mayor Judith Cajes.

Another younger daughter was also elected as SK chairman in another barangay of Trinidad.

Cajes' contender is the daughter of Loay Mayor Mae Lim-Imboy and Philippine Councilors League (PCL)-Bohol president Kag. Brigido Imboy who is also eyeing the federated SK presidency.

Rochelle Brigitte Imboy was elected as SK chair of barangay Calvario, Loay.

She is likely to win the Loay federated SK, according to reports, as majority of the 24 elected SK chairmen are allied with Mayor Imboy.

Another contender for the SK presidency that has surfaced is Ma. Fe Cadeliña, daughter of Bilar Mayor Fanuel Cadeliña.

With reports that her bid is allegedly backed by Manila-based businessman Angelo Balili, then the provincial federated SK elections will be a tough three-cornered fight.

Last November 2, 2007 the University of Bohol and the Tirol family celebrated the 100th birth anniversary of Atty. Victoriano D. Tirol. He was University of Bohol's first President, a great educator and great father.

Today November 4, we also celebrate the birthday of the Boholano former President of the Philippines Carlos P. Garcia.

As a tribute to CPG we will discuss his translation of the national anthem to Bisayan. This translation was based directly from Spanish, a language that CPG spoke well.

The National Anthem

The Marcha Nacional (National March) was first composed in music by Julian Felipe. It was played the first time during the celebration of independence on June 12, 1898 at Kawit, Cavite. It did not have lyrics. Later on, the poet Jose Palma was commissioned to put the Spanish lyrics to fit the music. When it was completed, the whole composition was adopted as the National Anthem.

Theme of the Spanish Lyrics

When the lyrics were composed, the Filipinos were still fighting a revolution against Spain. The thrust of the wordings is about the people offering their lives and services to the country. It was in the "active sense" and full of vigor.

The Pilipino translation was finalized on May 26, 1956 through Department of Education Order No. 5, s-1956 signed by the Secretary of Education G. Hernandez Jr.

I do not know whether it is by design or omission, the Tagalog translation we sing today is rendered in the passive sense. It is now about the country serving or acting towards the people instead of the original sense that the people serve the country.

The English version by Camilo Osias that we sang when we were yet young was a different case. It was not a translation but another set of poetic words composed to fit the music. It was similar to the Spanish original but couched in such a way that it will not offend the American colonizers.

How They Differ

The original Spanish lyrics says:
Tierra adorada (Land adored)
Hija del sol de Oriente (Child of the sun of the Orient)
Su fuego ardiente (Your ardent fire)
En ti latiendo esta (Is palpitating in us)

It is very clear, the action is to be done by the singer to his country.

The Tagalog translation says:
Bayang magiliw (Loving country)
Perlas ng Silanganan (Pearl of the Orient)
Alab ng puso (Fervor of the heart)
Sa dibdib mo'y buhay. (Is alive in your breast)

The sense is now reversed. The prefix "ma" in magiliw indicates that the bayan (country) is the one that loves. In the original sense it is the singer who loves his country. To capture the original sense the Tagalog words should be ginigiliw and not magiliw. If it is difficult to fit in the notes, then iniibig would still fit.

The last two lines in the Spanish original has the English sense, "Your ardent fire is palpitating in us." However, the Tagalog translation put the "ardent fire or fervor still in the country and not in the singer". It is apparent that the Tagalog translations have a "colonial mentality." They were careful not to offend American sensibilities.

CPG's Bisayan translation says:
Yutang hinalaran (Land adored)
Anak sa adlaw's sidlakan (Child of the sun of the Orient)
Ang kayo's kalag mo (The fire in your soul)
Nagsiga's among dughan (Is burning in our breast)

This translation of CPG captures the original Spanish sense of the singer acting or praising his country.

The last stanza of the Spanish original says:
Tierra de dichas, de sol y de amores (Land of honors, of the sun and loves)
En tu regazo dulce is vivir (In your lap is sweet to live)
!Es una Gloria para tus hijos (It is a glory for your sons)
Cuando ofenden, por ti morir! (When you are offended, to die for you)

The Tagalog version says;
Lupa ng araw, ng luwalhati't pagsinta (Land of the sun, of glory, and love)
Buhay ay langit sa piling mo (Life is heaven in yoru side)
Aming ligaya, na pag may mang-aapi (It is our happiness, when there will be oppressors)
Ang mamatay nang dahil sa iyo. (To die because of you)

In the original Spanish the singer will wait for an offender or oppressor and gladly die fighting for the country. In the Tagalog version, is vague and misleading. The singer will gladly die when there will be oppressors and the "because of you" is not clear. Is it the oppressor or the country? And besides, oppressors are always present. In the original the singer will wait for an offense but in the Tagalog version, the singer will immediately die. Maybe it's the reason why many Filipinos are going abroad. They do not want to die even if there is no offense.

CPG's Bisayan Translation
CPG was a poet and not a musician. His Bisayan translation captures the original Spanish sense but it is very difficult to sing because the syllables sometimes do not fit the musical notes.
     

Unforgettable experience w/ Pres. Garcia
By Silverio D. Sarmiento

Our memories are enriched by experiences, past and present. I have treasured one such experience when I was a young budget officer in Malacañang during the time of President Carlos P. Garcia.

The Budget Commission under the Office of the President was tasked with budget administration, to include preparing the annual budget of estimated revenues and proposed expenditures for all National Government departments,offices and
agencies for the ensuing fiscal year.

I was a member of the Budget Commission group who were called to meet with the President on February 7, 1961, at his Bohol Avenue residence. We briefed the President on the highlights of the 1962 budget proposal. I was tasked to present the agricultural and rural development programs and projects of that budget.

After a brief question and answer period, President Garcia signed the budget document for the year 1962 which was to be submitted to the Congress of the Philippines, as mandated in the Constitution. Among those present in that signing ceremony were Budget Commissioner Faustino SyChangco and the author, as shown in the picture both standing at the right side of the President.



The President directed Commissioner SyChangco to provide budgetary support to government offices so as to effectively implement his "Filipino First" policy. This policy, among others, was designed to level the playing field in business, commerce and industry thereby allowing more active participation of Filipino entrepreneurs and businessmen in the face of well-entrenched foreign business interests.
          

After the signing, I approached President Garcia and introduced myself as the son of Nicanor Cabagnot Sarmiento of Taloto, Tagbilaran. He smiled, warmly shook my hand and told the officials then present, "Silvestre here is my godson at his confirmation. His father is my compadre, a good friend. We were then in Dumaguete where he was an audit clerk and I was a law student at Silliman Institute. I am glad to see him doing well." Certainly, I felt elated beyond measure to be so recognized.

I often saw him that day at times to see him play chess at which the President was very good like a grandmaster

"You know," the President continued "there were few Boholano students at Silliman and since Canor (using my father's nickname) was already employed with regular salary, he used to treat us weekends, after payday, to a merienda of mongo con hielo or pancit guisado." My father smilingly confirmed these statements as the Boholanos shared many things among themselves. He admitted that he was an active supporter in later political campaigns of Carlos P. Garcia, wherever he was assigned.

I recall my father telling me that President Garcia, or Caloy as he called him, even then was a visionary, intellectually brilliant, with the gift of a silver tongue, who showed potentials of enduring leadership. The president was the acknowledged campus student leader.

I served many Presidents after I left the military to join the career civil service - from President Quirino to President Marcos. By dint of hard work, integrity, and dedication to high standards of service, I rose in the ranks to become Budget Director in Malacañang, Finance Officer of Metro Manila Commission, Chairman of the Board of Accountancy and as the first Commissioner, Commission on Audit, from where I retired in 1986, with honors and distinction, after 45 years of government service.

To the best of my personal knowledge, President Carlos P. Garci was a most exceptional man of great talent yet humble, compassionate with high moral principles and firmly committed to the socio-economic advancement of his beloved country. It is indeed a great honor and pleasure to have officially and personally served a distinguished Man and a Great Boholano, whose memory I shall always treasure.

So, to complete the picture, this would be my reaction to a woman's fragrance:

Top stage : self-control

Mari, what kind of perfume is 'Allure' from Chanel? There was a woman in church who was wearing it and I couldnt help but getting attracted to her scent.

Soft ra kaayo..pero sharp and direct. I acted like didnt notice her, but i couldnt pay attention to the sermon because of her scent. lol

Soft but sharp and direct...

It amazes me how far you have honed your skill is distinguishing the character of a perfume, Lorenzo.

This reminds me of your Tito Dan's description of the Tagbilaranons: Religious but open-minded, conservative but aggressive.

For guys like me whose level of understanding scent has not yet gone beyond Johnsons Baby Cologne, when the woman's scent make us feel good about ourselves, there's the dangerous tendency we will misinterpret it as "come take me" 

Now that would be a riot. God forbid it will happen in church!

'Honeymoon stage' is over, Mayor Lim says
By: KIT BAGAIPO, The Bohol Chronicle



The 100-day honeymoon stage with Vice Mayor Jose Antonio Veloso and his 10-man Sangguniang Panlungsod is over.

City Mayor Dan Lim declared this yesterday after the city lawmaking body withheld the approval of a P20-million supplemental budget which he sought.

During his three-year stint as city mayor, Lim said, this is the first time that a request for supplemental funding has been railroaded for over a month now.

Lim stressed that while he was able to survive during his previous term with only one councilor under his political camp, there is no reason why he can't survive with five of the city councilors supporting him all the way.

With this, the mayor said he will communicate with Veloso to lay down his own program and draw the line between the executive and legislative departments.

Veloso also chairs the committee on appropriations.

The supplemental funding was to be used mainly for the repair and maintenance of roads particularly those leading to the cemeteries in time for All Souls' Day when the public pay tribute to their dead.

The delayed approval of the supplemental fund was also raised by Kag. Leonides Borja during the SP's session last Wednesday but there was no clear explanation when it will be taken up.

   

Judge sacked for immorality
By: KIT BAGAIPO, The Bohol Chronicle

A municipal trial court judge was dismissed by the Supreme Court (SC) for making sexual advances and committing lascivious acts against two women in a public place.

The high tribunal, in an en banc ruling, found Judge Manuel de Castro of the Municipal Circuit Trial Court (MCTC) of Jagna and Garcia-Hernandez, guilty of gross misconduct and immorality.

De Castro is ordered dismissed by the high tribunal after he was deemed to have admitted certain allegations in an administrative complaint which accused him of rape.

The dismissed judge is also required to show cause why he should not be disbarred as a member of the Philippine Bar by the SC.

While the allegation of rape was not proven due to the execution of an affidavit of retraction and withdrawal by the complainant, the Court still ruled that "substantial evidence, circumstantial and testimonial, obtain to hold respondent judge (de Castro) liable for gross misconduct and immorality."
          

In its decision, the Court stated that De Castro's acts of teasing a waitress in a videoke bar about her "scant dress," kissing her on the cheek and another waitress behind the ear, and attempting to enter the bathroom while one of the waitresses was inside, with his companions egging him on and in full view of the other drinking individuals in the bar "translate into a violation of the Code of Judicial Conduct as they reflect upon respondent judge's utter disregard of public opinion of the reputation of the judiciary which he represents."

The Court stressed that De Castro failed to conduct himself in a way that will promote confidence and respect for the judiciary.

"He deported himself in a manner most unbecoming a judge as a model of moral uprightness…The audacity under which the same were committed and the seeming impunity with which they were perpetrated shock one's sense of morality," the high tribunal's ruling stated.

The Court noted that while De Castro denied the charge of rape and alleged that the said was filed for the purpose of harassing him, he failed to prove why, how, and by whom the harassment was done.

De Castro never attributed to the complainant, according to the Court, any reasonable motive for her to accuse him of rape, nor did he categorically deny the severe allegations against him by the two waitresses.

"Respondent judge has made much of the affidavit of retraction and withdrawal of complaint upon which the Prosecutor's Office of Bohol predicated its dismissal of the underlying complaint for rape," said the Court, adding that such a recantation is extremely unreliable inasmuch as it can be easily obtained from a poor and ignorant witness.

Furthermore, the Court stated that based on the social standing and economic status of the complainant, the combination of both factors "seems to explain why complainant affixed her signature to the recanting affidavit."

   

GEC'S prediction:

Six months from now, Tubag Bohol members will start to grow two additional fingers on each hand to better dokdok the computer.

Three more months later, the eyelids will become transparent so that they can still read the posts even when they are sleepy and couldn't open their eyes.

Kiyosaki's rich dad never actually exist?

But I know my rich dad is true -- Macky. 

Sometimes, authors employ imaginary persons to liven up the discussion on self-improvement. Like Aesop's fables and other parables. The book "Celestial Prophecy" sets the story in the middle of a civil war in a Latin American country while the its real subject is on the advancement of man's level of consciousness.

The debate whether or not it would be more interesting if Kiyoshi's rich dad is a real person might soon merit the kind of discussion -- and controversy -- on the comparison of the historical Jesus and the Jesus written about in the Holy Bible.

Then we will have in our midst another Dan Brown

Is the flower hidden underneath your hair, Mari?

That will now depend on the price of the fare. If the plane ticket from Cebu to Panglao is higher, than the fast ferries, and you need to add to cost of land transportation from Panglao to the mainland, then there will still be a market for the fast ferries from Cebu to Tagbilaran.

The commuting public should have a choice which mode of transportation they will take.

You hit it right on the dot
Precious needs to be polite
And we all need to show concern

hands up on Johnsons baby cologne esp the blue one on men... a turn on!

Ah, so you will know I'm near
by the scent in the air

But could I dare touch the flower
tucked in your shiny hair?

If you love somebody, set her free. If she comes back, she might have forgotten something.
If not, maybe you have changed address, that's why.

All work and no play makes Jack tired.

Manundog ko sa tinubagan ni Lorenzo: 

Graz, it's not the number of posts that count... it's whether or not your post can make the reader smile, enrich knowledge, affirm the goodness in each of us.

My sport:

word wrestling

paragraph lifting

poetry diving


These things give me a good sweat

Kon sa imong pagpauli, nangligabgab
Ang mga gangis ug wala motagbo
Ang sinilihang mga pulong:
(Diin ka na usab gikan?
Maayo ka nakainom og sabaw
Sa pasaw! Kami hangin ra!)

Ug dili na mobagting ang dalunggan
Inigkalawat sa ebanghelyo sa bata,
Paghubog ug paglipay
Kay bulahan ka.

Natulog na ang asawa nga magkaon
Og sili samtang maghangad sa Buwan.
Ug miuk-ok na ang dila
Sa napagaw nga bata.

Bisayantek,

What comes to my mind is ERAP's homecoming after his pardon.

Grazie7y,

Congratulations sa imong pagka Hero! As a TuBo member, you are one of the reason this site rocks!  Shine on... spread the love 

Mike,

I am so sorry for the loss of your father. Your writings about him really shows how much you love him. My deepest sympathies and condolences.

I don't think the fast ferries will be out of business. Remember that they cater not only to foreign and domestic tourists  but also to Cebuanos, Boholanos, Negrenses, Siquijornons, etc. who may be doing business in these parts or students coming home for a vacation. There is still the inter-island demand for visiting relatives. The ferry boats will still be there.
