Crab is lami and pinches you like hell and hurts untill no end so boil him king or not and listen to him scream and sing in the old hot pot!

Melt the butter crush up some garlic throw in a dash of salt eat all you can but later your butt will bark! Crabs cause gas!

Go and get your fill!

He he he hegrazie it sure looks cold wet and crunchy under that butt!

I just hired a woman to pose as me at the beach, she is my look a like!

She is lighter then the other lady that posed as my look a like in my past avatar..he he he!

"PSYCHE!"

Nothing like good old unstable internet these days ?

I have an old song from my Highschool days........."LOVE STINKS>>YAH!>>YAH!" I am sure it was sang by the Jake Giles Band?

Wn any of my relationships get hard or difficult and often trying at times it never fails I can hear that old song being played in my head....Makes me laugh truley.

Back to the question, now here's the answer; Do not exspect to fall in love let love fall for you.

Well guys Maria has told you all the real reality of what it is here as far as workers go.

I still want to know where the securityguard was during all of this he is always at the door with a big gun half his body size?

Yuck!

campFire roasted Marshmallows

I want to go to Brewpoint like i do every day but that day i was and i admit at two media functions and a meeting with my Standard editor going over plans to change the spotlight page, and then i finished off my night by watching the DJ competition.

This week I am not afraid to say I am leary. I remember when my parents restuarant was robbed and i was at work the next day with a blown up money safe under the prep counter facing me all week as the investigators are running all kinds of test.

this week no but maybe in there by next week.

Its hard to go into a place when it has taken place recently.

I recall Duncan Donuts being robbed one night but still many persons went there after it happend but brewpoints sort of sits on a dark corner out of sight and out of mind during later parts of the night.

I still want to know where was the security guard that carries a gun half his size?

he is always there.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Lorenzo did you say you are looking? he he he he!

One block up from DYTR and three blocks across from DYRD and chronicle.

and about 9 blocks from Tagbilarans finest PNP.

last friday was a good oppurtunity to hit up Bohol business's anywhere.
They had a jammed pack DJ show at BQ and the Theresa was on her last night here so everyone one was being occupied that night.

Does Mayor Lim ever ask himself how do the PNP enforce crime and go after those who are bad when they have one or two cars to patrol with?

The more road patrol on peoples necks patroling the less crap there will be to happen.

I need to pay a monthly visit to cityhall and get in their faces and see whats up?

they love me there and know I am from the heart but they trust me to get the shin digs out in the open were problems lie as they are working and residing here and are afraid to do say what I normally have no problem saying.

I am honest and that's the way I was raised if your good your good if your bad your bad!

No one bother's me too much (BUYAG) I am friendly. I am also large and large at times does have it's priveladges but not against a copper headed shell that is two inches but a half inch big! Yikes!

Be vigilant at all times.

I was there as a media erson taking pictures and let me tell you folks you gripe about your countries corruption I sure did she allot of empty chairs that should not have been empty if most of you feel like that way then do not be afraid to stand behind what you feel!

I was rather discusted in the medium to low turn out which in this time with ZET' and dishonesty going around and the low power of the piso buying at current and the dwindling piso to the dollar Ate. Glo is not doing this country any favors she is hurting you guy's very much.
That's all I have to say.

ok to be frank I am not one for soy bean product burger's and i definantly disagree with saying it is the best place to stop for a bite when your on the go?

Being born and raised in the states I found often when traveling I would be very uncompfortable under my ribs after eating at McDo?
Well anyways that was back then when many choices were not yet available like they are today in America.

I actually enjoy going to real taco wagon places owned by real mexicans and eatting real taco meat burgers made with pork or steak and some times chicken?

As for the other fast food joints and being raised in a family fast food joint I can easily get bored fast of those kinds of foods.

I am a light eater even though my body tells another story!
A Mc Do open at 4am that's not from my place of the woods normaly they closeanywhere from 9p-p11p

I stopped eating at Crap in the sack (Jack N The Box) another popular restuarant (fastfood chain) when kids were dieing from the Ecoli bacterial outbreak!

We even had meat patty boxxes delivered to our restuarant and we were lucky to catch peices of the brocken metal blade in our patties before we served them.

Its scarey being in the restuarant business back home. So many things go on behind the restuarant scene that it would absolutley amaze you
Yes the Wendy burger has filler of proteins they are known as protein worms before it was another filler bi-product that was harder for digesting Wendy's has had this in their burger's for years!

"Wendy's hot and Juicy Worm Burger's!"....he he he he!

During the late 70's Pizza Hut would use canned Alpo dog food and call it hamburger meat pizza but they got caought.

Tacobell ("YO NO QUEIRO") I do not like as before because I read in a restuarant magazine that they sell a kind of beef that is les then a third class grade? uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurgh!

I sit at home at the PC and dream about cheeze bread at BQ arnd 5pm (HOT) and lomi soup at Metro hotel.

Around September, October I dream about lanzonies so lami and tamise!

Last saurday was JS prom the kids had learned how to ballroom dance and when it was time to go to the lazer disco in their beautifull prom dresses and tuxedos all they could do was sit as the lazer disco was haing a dance competition for bayut dancer's.
now thatsounds like something a want to get all dresed up and go out on the town to do in exspensive clothes!

bu****!

Oh man I am not thirsty anymore I just clicked on the sample clips and i hit upon thirsty monkey thinking it was about something else ehuuuuuuum!

Shame on me, but man could that monkey pee go on and on and on! Bastose!

Mackey! ha ha ha he he he he what about if you see some one accepting the voting monies? kill him also!

You are right about a change of attitude, and the people here need not to teach our kids in a push button way. they should be teaching our kids how to think ahead how to do things with out being told all the time.

They need to encourage and not discourage the young peoples mind and make them so narrow minded it is better to have broader horizons then to see things in a funnel way!

It has to start with the young not just here in the Philippines biuyt all over the world as a whole. people need to get back down to earth and be humble and be perspectictive and give a care about what is going on around them not just whats happening to them personaly.

Yes I had attended the event it was really neat to see the kids performing to olf folk songs and dancing to them as well.
The kids even though some were only one year at it and some were having their firt time exsosure to performing I felt had done a great job!
The mayor of Batuan sat behind me and asked me to go up on stage with her and pose in a picture wth the choir.
The mayor also is the one who supports her choir.
I think every kid should get invlved with something such as this or a drum corp.
You learn disciplin and you have a feeling of your own self worth knowing that what you enjoy will also make other's happy and pleased by all your practice time and efforts.

Loboc childrens choir will be have ing anothe U.S. tour this April good luck guys and enjoy your tour in America!

Last friday I had attended an anti Ate Glo rally forum at saya's restuarant in this town and many of the different groups are sick of Neri and referred to him as a trader of Bohol.

I was there for media reasons I had pictures to put in the Standard just like the one's I had taken of bishop medroso but some one keeps forgetting to put me as photo credit ...lol!

Bayangyan Dam was another hot topic, and corupted government, and media that fabricates were this groups main bitching.

Mike i went to manila and both times passed through the x-ray machine with the same cigerette lighter in my purse going there and coming back last month. Imagine that how safe are you feeling Now!?

Well you guys my first banner story had to do with shanties and i had wrote it in defense towards the mayor of the city and told him in person while interveiwing him that he was cold hearted to blame the poor and tare down their homes behind the Dao bus terminal.

Even Non voted for deputy mayor Mario uy had to snear at me because i was throwing in my luuy and bright attitude to them.
I had told mayor that some of those people have work and some of them have no spouse and some of them have children born with out legs or arm's.

I also told him some even have up to 12 kids living in one shack.

I warned him that he is looking to find more trouble as he just kicks out the poor on their heads as they sleep ontop of their fluffy beds at night people here will be more desperate and looking for a way to make an earning by hook or crook if you treat them like criminals.

My name was MUD for a long time and I am not afriad of the Big Bad Wolf of Tagbilaran I have always had kahuna and I am proud to say it like it is.
just look at my stepson and his girlfriend and their bb as his dad built them a comeplete one bedroom with c.r. attached to my (%$#@&*) front porch and grotto and he works and does not help pay the bills or help or do thety do any house work now there is charity and their is simply being taken advantage of!

Mayor of tagbilaran is the boss dog with the fuzzy nuts who is in charge of attacking the poor.

Yea' Mike booming need as they are getting banged on the job! (Shot down as well). the problem here is that the security guards are having more then one duty such as sweeping, assisting customer's, and helping direct cars in and out of parking lots and e.t.c. e.t.c.

mike you have mail!

I often take my white coffee, toasted tuna fish sandwich or  is it pan fried soon to be burgarlar pan fried oh hee sori no pan de leche intended!

I will either sit down with media such as Ted Ayeng, DYTR, Chito Visara, dyRD, or Kit Bagaipo, Chronicle, and the Manila Enquirer, aomong other various well knowns around such as City council member Jingo Rama and the list of Tagbilaran well knowns go in who frequent the place, some times relaxing amongst friends late into the night.

If that is the casheir I am thinking about she worked there during her entire pregnancy and just gave birth a couple of months ago.

Where was the security guard he is always patrolling the area with an M16? something like that?

I know of a business owner who frequents the place (Has his own stash of liquer to serve his friends when he is entertaining them at the brewpoint.) and at current him and the mayor are fueding over parking rights for his customers who are just across the street a little ways from the Soledad suites

I have never heard of Bo's Coffee being hit up and thats the Mayor's and Boy Guing's place to hang out at for political chika chika!

Vito, apparently its a mystery to me also i am going to text a friend of mine who is working in the court fiscal area where the case is being handled as of now and ask what is the latest?

All I know is what I was told was that Atty Don Piquero has asked the driver Blanco too contradict the affdavit and make it false some false statements.

What I do not get untill now if the mayor (who is lieing and i know it.) is saying he is the one to terminate the driver then why does he still get to be represented from the city atty and tax dollar's are paying for it?

Why then does mayor and the restof city hall shrug their shoulders and say it is not them and its the driver but yet if it is on the driver then why is the cityhall paying for the attorney to represent the driver?

Reminding everyone that the driver was driving home the city water truck intoxicated after a christmas party because of the garage for the utility the vehicles was already locked up.

When the head engineer had told me that blanco was driving the truck after the party he was to return back the sound system for the party in manga barangay this city of Tagbilaran.

What peeves me is the fact that some one is not 100% friggen honest here and whats new in this type of sad sittuation as I had heard it from the head engineer "NO ONE WAS IN THE TRUCK THAT NIGHT WITH BLANCO?" but according to the investigative affidavit he had persons in the truck with him.

Now this this is a tourism issue at hand and the news never made it out of Bohol as I have mentioned that Sr. writer Kit Bagaipo had told me that he felt himself that it should of been put in the paper of the chronicle and he said he felt bad because he knows Peter Dejarasco the publisher would of discarded the news as he is the tourism chairman in Bohol, and I was the only one who was able to get it published in two paper's?

Now since this is an international tourist it just seems it should be automatic for the province to vs the city on this issue, and case at hand.

Maybe I should take a tippy toe glance into the water department tomorow and take a chance of possibly getting my head shot off (LOL) and ask what are the up dates on Blamnco?

Why should they care what are the up dates it is no longer their concern afterall it was Eng. Wellington Pelongo told me that day of Jan, 4th, that he was the one to terminate Blanco for good?

I am still irked as to Mayor Lims comment that the victims common law wife make an appointment since the begining well she tried that several times throught the mayor's left hand man Mark Monton and to several attempts and no avail the victims common law wife gave up and is having her atty. handle it in court.
(WHat the hell is the baby who is the victim in this case left behind my the dead American sup[pose to just take a number wait her turn while the she was losing the roof and common daily needs that she needs untill now, as mayoy has still done nothing about it?) Make appointment oh dd the baby make an appointment to have her father killed by the water department truck?

Even though Cleofe is not speaking to me latley and lord only knows why (Maybe no load, or she is sick of no one caring?) Cleofe is a beautifull and bright woman I hope and pray that some one can help her and the bb? I know the two mom and bb are staying in Mabini with Cleofe mom.

I had made an appointment with Congressman Chatto to help me stress some points about a particular newspaper outlet that black outs tourist issues that happen bad here and for me to be a domesticated foreigner here and if i was to die out of danger because i was in a dangerous area and not aware of it because no one bothered to warn the public about it and kept it hid I guess I am not of safety and concern to the Boholanos as as a foreigner?

Unfortunantly my appointment was postponed at the last hour prior to meeting the congressman and i also was going to ask him he he was willing also to write a letter of apology and let the mom in the states know that he as a congressman will do his best to follow up and make sure things are handled justily and fairly.

If i do anything else in speaking with anyone about th matter Vito I will be happy to give what ever information I get for you all in Tubag.
Love and God Bless!

I was able to text Cleofe earlier yesterday morning she says she was waiting on the American passports for both her baby and the baby's father, before anything else can be done.

I hope to talk with her soon as I have not spoke to her since last time we went to gether in Manila.

I will do my best to keep all you updated with every little tid bit.

first sentence should read; "I went off on Mayor........"

About three weeks ago I went on of mayor lim over the radio as a call in person of concern. Iuntill today have received the biggest pats on the back for my bravery to let him be told just the way it is seen.

Including compliments from Congressman Chatto and his aide Anthony who will be entertaining me this weekend about the matter with Zachery.

I am prety sure some paper's in Manila will be biting at the bait when they know of some tourist issues that are being kept from media leaks out ..................it's just a matter of time white washing publisher's will get their greedy grubs into deep stinky poo-poo!

Yesterday my write up on Danao was published in the Bohol Standard but my stuff does not make it to the web site the one doing the web set up thinks he owns the paper even tho I told him it would be nice to publish the write up about Danao so that Mike could promote it as well as we know he said he would like to promote it.
In two days I have been told by several of our readers including the sr. writer for the chronicle that it was a nice article and that it was good i had turned it into a news item about being a tourist attraction to be.
It was totally great being able to see such a beautifull ad breath taking scenary of Bohol.

Ha ha ha ha! if we did a TB EB.....and rock climbing was th agenda .....uuuuuhm? Not sure if i could pull up my behind it might drag behind me and .wah .....wah i will be leave behind because of my dugay tail...lol!

Yeasterday Bohol media spent the day in Danao as a guest of Mayor during an informational forestry and training excercize for DENR and ANF members.

During the press conference the town mayor said that hit small town will become a tourist destination because it is a fourth class town with first class people.

There are other wonder's in Bohol besides Chocolate hills and panglao.

He exsplained "we have caves, cliff climbimg, a beautifull river valley and kayaking to offer to our tourist that will be coming here.

The media then went to three other sites to observe samples of composting, learn how to contain forest fires to keep from quickley spreading.

We also wen to a vantage point to take in a breath of fresh air and look over the canyon and river with caves and cliffs below.

There are even skeletal remains of dagohoy or even to be of his enemies or follower's.

The bones of the past can be seen at the entry site of the Danoa recreational training centre.

I feel bad for both the victim and the policeman but police are trained in not to be to over confident.

Drunkards are also unpredictable, depressed, and when drunk bad often in an I do not care state of mind.

Most the time when i attend PNP events these guuys are always sharing a bottle are few even in uniform.

I have never been around an irrate and drunk policeman while on duty but i seen one drunk off duty go bizzerck lose his stack and all and it was so out of control and not necessary at the time.

So fake and such as an excuse. at the time as he had said he wants his kids all together but at the same time he is a womanizer?

If some one talks dronk I ussualy think that the truth speaks first,
When under intoxicants.

I am hoping if my Cheif editor is not hadlok about my column for tommorow's edition I have exposed the publisher and the paper some what buut did not mention the actual name I mentioned his title as tourism chairman, and what was said by the sr. writer.

yes' darling I have 3 kids graduating one from second grade elementary, and the other from high school, and another one from a four year course in computer programming,

I am pretty proud of myself to handle it as a surrogate mother and this ids the fourth graduation I have been able to support the kids with.

Thank you Lorenzo for your sweet words always and and for the compliments and appreciation in the help I am able to give here as a media person and friend to all.
Take Care!

God Bless!

Thank You, grazie and everyone for standing by and being pateint about this topic matter.

Anyways "PIE" has not talked with me since she came back from manila. Maybe she no longer needs me?

I did talk with the Sr. writer from the "PIONEER" paper here in Tagbilaran and and asked him why he never bothered to report about the incident involving the American?

he replied that if he would of written it that his publisher who is the provincail tourism chairman here would of rejected the story, just like he did when the Japanese tourist were robbed near to Sierra boulinas.

His publisher will not publish bad things that happen to tourist here in Bohol?

Maybe he does not care about the safety of tourist from outside the country coming in here?

I just do not get it informing the public is the medias jobs in order to let the community know to be more vigilantin with in different parts of the island where becoming a conveinant criminal victim is more acessisble.

Sorry everyone, it has been a while since I updated this post.

I am back from Manila and what a grueling time it was indeed. For Cleofe's part it went well for her baby daughter who is absolutley very darling fat, and cute.

We went to Manila as schelduled for our next day embassy appointment. We brought along also the grandmother who was just paid a plane ticket to take care of the bb after the embassy appointment oh' no instead the poor bb gets dragged all over Manila and ends up getting really sick instead as the grandmother did not do as was promised to have her plane ticked paid for which was just to make sure the baby was looked after and kepf well in between appointments.
While staying at the hotel room where it was clean.
I was correct in suggesting to "PIE" that it would be better to go to the embassy and apply for American national, and to start processing paper's for the bb to receive the bennefits of her late father.

"PIE" still has some things to do for the embassy but she is working hard at getting things done fo her bb and will be heading back to Manila alone this time.

She was instructed by persons at the NSO and the American Embassy that she must only spend the monies received for the bb and nothing more.

If she abuses such priveladge is found not being able to produce the receipts for the bennefit transactions then she will forfeit all monies awarded.

As for the Manila Bulletin Newspaper in Manila "PIE" was absent up to eight hour's due to traffic and getting around for finding things to give the embassy showwing pictures that she was pregnant.
So we did not have time to meet up with the Manila Provincail editor of the Bulletin.
I am so sorry she missed a bigger oppurtuinity to have this news go out of Bohol, since it is a tourist issue.

On the other hand i am happy that i was able to give some help for her and guide her to where she neede to be guided.

I am personaly exhausted from everything and i want to spend some time and energy for myself so i can concentrate on my families graduation this coming up couple of months.

God Bless and if I have further informayoion I will compile and keep you up to date as always.

My two dotr's attend skol there. I think the administration and faculty should give fair warning for parents during crisis time when they are suppose to pay for extra activities.
It's been a complaint od some parents that the activities are too much money and so close to each other and not enough time to plan out the budget na lang!

I did a follow up on this case lst friday also and found that th new city superintendent show's that she does not care, whenI ked her if she had any news she said she was busy and went out the door.

I had by this time sent a text message askiing Jala why it was not mentioned to the incoming City superintendent who took over for him?

Untill now no decision has been made?

That's great news, yes' I know I receive daily emails from Zachery's mom as well, as I am the translater and helper with Atty. Lim on this case.

Pie is back in Mabini with her baby from Zachery and living with her parents also.

Our tickets are already purchased through my publisher and loding and daily food allowance is already sponsored by him as well.
Thursday on valentines day Pie will have her appointment with the baby at the American embassy, I will also accompany her at the appointment.
I also interveiwed PO3 Fabio Maulas two days regarding the pre limanary hearing.

It's exactly the way I knew it to be all along.

Zachery's mom is upset but she has been very cooperative indeed.

Last Saturday during the Mayor's report I Let mayor Lim have it good over the radio. To avoid from being arrested (Joking) I hung up the phone.

So many were wanting more........Mayor has never been so nice to someone when they have critisized him the way I did.
I think in the history of his reports he truly behaved after that and also his report this morning as maybe he was afraid I might have called him again telling him to do his job as a good mayor for everyone in the city.

He said just because Zachery was an American it did not mean that he has to handle this case as a priority?

Just who does he think he is when it is his city dump truck and driver who failed the right of way to Zachery and then the driver's Atty. Doni Piquero is representing the case?
What I do not get if he is terminated then why does he have a tax paid Atty.?

If Mayor does not want to take the blame then why does he have Doni Piquero the cities Atty. representing a terminated employee.

According to my interveiw with the PO3 who investigated the case he said that Piquero is trying to get Blanco to say things against the investigation.

Mark Monton never did call either Pie or I back in regards to getting any help?

PO3 also felt that Dan Lim was told  way before I had ever mentioned it to him? but is trying to white wash the sittuation. I recorded the interveiw with PO3.

Manila Bulletin has taken an interest to this story and wants me to call them so they can come and interveiw Pie and I and they have instructed me to bring all of my printed media writinings about the case.

They are also curious as to why the other pioneer newspaper's kept silent over a tourist issue?

They also think it is rude of the mayor not to have lifted a finger as well.

I am not going to correct the spelling it is late here and I am tired.

please understand, Thank You and good night everyone.

I would be leary to set up business here. No matter how good the food how friendly the help I just would not do it.

Especailly investing in business when it is crisis na?

Fiscal Uy is still gathering info for the case. The two girls are still not attending class's.

The parents are scared to file administrative cases, and the old DEPED supervisor transferred to the provincail deped office.
When Jala transfered he failed to tell the new superintendant taking over his old postion about the case that is pending.
DSWD is unable to provide money or an attorney to help the student victims.

When I had asked the stepping orders given to the high school the new superintendant Varquez had no ideal what I was talking about.
She mentioned she knew about the caseit just by admitting she read my columns.

untill no no action taken in what should be a gender sensitive case. diba!

I personally think naming a street in Bohol Tobacco street sounds awfull.

There is no Tobacco grown on that street either.
It's not sso popular a road to roam on.

Anything in the general vicinity Cogon is spooky these days!

The trip is postponed Atty. lim purchased the tickets already, and we will be have the appointment on the 14th at the embassy.
Today their was a another hearing with the fiscal and it went alright.

The motorcyclist was going fast because if going slow he would of had a better chance of living.

The truck driver did hit him and the impact was hard to the truck such as mirror's and dooors and one passanger side headlamp taken out.
The case is still on going.
Sorry it has been a while to post.
The internet here is unstable this past month.
Take Care!

B4 the guards and the police would have a building to sleep in when not on duty. They have torn the building down and no one sleeps there now.
I am not sure if this is the security that is out of Cebu or local but the one from Cebu is operated so unfairly they fired persons who knew too much about the open area's and the security who tried to report it was fired beofre he could do so.
Most the guys working security there are hardly ever paid on time as it is.
They often make nightly run way checks as I have been there late at night as my daughter's dad is a police man on duty there before.
They are often watching the gate and the run way approach.
They just finished construction there.
Who knows it could have gone out unnoticed during broadlight at the end of a construction day in the terminal area?
Me and the run way have some fond memories........yes we do so many smooth take off's and landing's! Gliding down the runway!

Okay there is a change in flight scheldule do to plane conflict we are unable to go tommorow to Manila and next week I am a guest speaker for the provincail WCCD of the PNP seminar Christmas party.
So the airplane ticket will be reschelduled againf for valentines week.

Uhm......some one was not very happy when he said he might have to pay a penalty for me to change the date of the ticket.

Anyways things will be fine as he is depending and knowing that "PIE" will be in good hands at the Embassy in Manila.

"OK deal YOUR ON LORENZO BUDDY!" (:  Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw it's okay i adore and admire a person who is able to say sorry now a days.
I knew you would not be mad at me for too long.
Maybe I can get Mike to post my Editorial from Bantay balita when it comes out on the internet next week. i is my editorial pleading for Mayor to take responsibility.
Written from the heart. my feelings, my sweat, my tears, and emotions of how this man has not treated this case as a priority.
It says all about how he tried to make sweet talk when I approached him about a serious issue  I had thanked him for his compliment in telling me I was looking sexier (HA!) I told him I was not there for jokes or to be sweet talked I was there for serious reasons and I wanted answer's.
anyways I do not want to blow the Editorial that I wrote in Bantay balita.
I hope as I said that Mike will publish it.

Uhm did he say he was Ronald Sondrias?

Is he the guy who was a rebel and shot last two weeks ago and left for dead or was it a relative i did not read the story on the newspaper's the pictures were awfull enough to have to look at.

komono

I love the pink komo!

I would help her emotionally, I would respect her feelings, I would suggest options or alternatives in how to better handle things and not just do things on impulse because she is hurt.
I would suggest Psychotherapy and that it is okay to go to get sessions as your trying to feel better about yourself and deal with things with some what of your head together. One step at a time indeed. almost as if spoon feeding her.
Maybe she has suffered some sort of nervous breakdown one time or another who knows it can be traumatic.

Smile it keeps you from having an older looking face.

"Please do not breathe on me I have a headache"

LAX was a true headache for me a few years back man I lost allot of stuff one entire bag of my electronics, my clothes, and my cell phone all was lost.
The girls just stood there shaking their heads saying "I do not know?" what the heck is was XMAS EVE FOT ME>

Normally my mom takes me to the airport first to Portland Oregon and then since Portland is domestic flight only it takes me to anothe international airport.

Espanoil- "TE-AMO" I love you!"

when IT COMES TO EDUCATION MATTER'S IN tAGBILARAN PLEASE REFER INQUIRIES TO CITY BOARD MEMBER MEMBER DAN DAN BANTUGAN, AS HE IS ON THE EDUCATION BOARD IN CHARGE OF CITY EDUCATION.

I wrote two columns about two-three months ago requesting for more police men to get involved with being more active in the community.

Policemen have also told me that they are also hadlok of getting to close to persons who are threatening and harmfull.

Here in the Philippines there are no bullet proof vest's to be worn by policemen, and there are no cash rewards to entice the community citizens to assist police in finding suspects like they do back home.

I also notice that there are no safe houses for children to run into in their community if they notice something unusual and not good in their brangay.

I also notice there is not any neighborhood watches going on here like how other countries have been doing for year's.

There are things this city should be adopting such as what I have mentioned up above to be able to cut back crime.

in the states your ass is automatically in jail not like here proving until guilty.

We take discipline rather seriously in the states.

We follow the rules most of the time.

WE TAKE CARE OF HOW WE OBEY LAWS TO RESPECT OURSELVES AND OTHER'S.

HERE IT JUST SEEMS LIKE A WHATEVER ATTITUDE AND OFTEN NO CONCERN FOR OTHER'S WHEN IT COMES TO PERSONS WHO VILATE OTHER'S.

CongratS! so many hero's this week!

Congrat Bulak we are members na of the "HERO CLUB!"

Yeehaw!!!

Thank You everyone! Thank you also for your contributions characters and thoughts with out all of you we would not exist and we would not be able to network and learn even further the more from one another.
We also gain friends and things to think about and often persons who can sympathise with how we are feeling whether good or bad.

It has been allot of work to be at the hero stage I am surprised myself I have been so loyal to something for so long a time.

He he he!

HAPPY ADVANCE HEARTS DAY!!!

I am not a green horn here by no means still he he he a Green horn on the Visayan language and sometimes the Englis!

I have prior to living here in Bohol visited Philippines several times since 1997.

I am an Icon in Bohol. Many know me and many are good to me.
As i am with them. I am direct to the point type of gal. he he he!

Lorenzo some times I have withdrawals of missing my family back home but I am way to protective of the two girls I am preparing to adopt. I will not leave them behind when I leave here they will go with me.
That has always been my promise and loyalty that I have given them.

I became interested in media here to learn about the place and be able to express myself in my own way and heart the true story of why things and why things happen.
I have always noticed most media person before I was involved in media here they were missing truths and not making thing clear and being biased.

Now that I am here I will contradict their stories and call it the way it really happend.

I do not dig media member who are paid to paint a falsehood about things.

I could go on my friend but the story is way too long.

I think if we met in person we would propbaby laugh allot with one another. I have a great sense of humor even though it sounds like I  am whiner but I am not.

The situations themselves are whiny? he he he!

P.S. by the way I like the picture your using now! Gawpo!!!

How about "DIRE STRAITS" ...........THE WALK OF LIFE!

If you have good comments let persons see who the smart person really is behind the hidden name with out a picture? He he he he!

We have people in here who go under several names because they are afraid of their comments might having rebuttal or they are afraid their comments might reach into the wrong hands.

where would that budget come from?
How was the investigation about the accident, any news to that?

That budget is now coming from my publisher and the clients Atty. Alexander Lim.

Atty. Lim, called me to a briefing session to ask me if I would accompany "PIE" and her 6 months old baby girl to the American Consulate head office in Manila to have the baby's documents filed in order to qualify her for her late father's Socail Security Benefits.
Atty. Lim is the one to shoulder all expenses for us RT food, lodging, transportation while we are there. That's pretty darn sweet of him.

Atty. Lim, knows I am the only one from the media who has taken a specail care to this incident as I have also cared about other things I have written about as well. Some times as a media man and if your heart is into it you give of personal time to something as charitable as this to lend a helping hand.
Atty. Lim, feels that the way that the cityhall is handling both "PIE" and I by always by hiding from us as well as eluding us and let's add dickering with time and being pointed to the middle man in trying to get them to assist and be responsible for their negligence for the sake of the Baby left behind and her darling and more then ever pateint mother has been in this matter.

Atty. Lim Feels strongly along with me that Mayor Dan Neri Lim is just not wanting to put this as a priority matter as it should have been the day it hapend not 12-14  days or even a month after the fact.

1.) The driver of city owned dump truck was drunk at the time of the accident.

2.) Driving on 6 months expired pro license

3.) Driving a city owned dump truck home after the party for personal use of transportation,
after dropping of sound system from a company Christmas Party.

That's where the budget is coming from! Atty. Alexander Lim.

Have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask?

The mother of the victim back in the United States emails me just about every day trying to justify why things have hapend the way they did?

I am also comforting her and passing information onto her so she knows that her grand daughter and "Pie" are in good hands and we are doing what we can to help.

She has not received any condolences from the city water dept, or the city Mayor, even though during last weeks mayor report he mentioned that he wrote a letter to the American Embassy (Late pod).

It was great to actually see protein colored red meats go down some what.

It has been ridiculous the prices? I feel so bad for the persons who maybe lucky to even get one meal or two bites in their belly's per day anymore.

For me the prices do not compare to the wages being earned.

I might write some of this down when it come s to my opinion in hurtful relationships with some of my print topics.

Happy Week El Mundo and the rest of TB

Okay Lindy I will give you a ding....he he he!

My family has restaurants located in the southern part of the same state your living in.

I see that the PNW has been having some rather odd and bizarre weather fronts?

I seen pictures of wallmart on a video out of Komo or KING news on the internet I was in awe.

It would be great to drive up North and meet you folks.

Blottered, at large, and unsolved is how most of it all end's up. looy

Many places including the central business district of Tagbilaran is very dark and scary at night and thats just as soon as it gets dark out.
The road near to Bombay, and Rose Pharmacy, just an example of one main out of many that need to be better lighted at night time.
I feel it is a gateway for inviting such hold ups that have been going on with in the city.

Also my condolences.
People here are so hadlock na karon!

Sloooooow the &%#*& down people!

Did anybody not get the clue from the last dump truck incident that recently killed an America tourist?

I get so mad when I see persons with out helmets?

Especially babies.

I think this owner of the dump truck is having a hell of a time this weekend in his head knowing what has happend?..................Then again that's if he knows about it already?

Sounds like this driver was not like the same irresponsible as the city dump truck driver from the water dept.(Dec,21st)

What a shame this story makes me mingaw and ruins my already nights of lost sleep i am having helping in another negligent driving fatality.

Leo                                           (Question)
Nice reporting but why did your newspaper not mention about the city incident that happend last DEC, 21st, as well as the Chronicle and the Times not writing about it?

If a newspaper is going to be prided with good compliments as a good community newspaper then i expect to see more straight forward write ups being done in these newspaper's? DIBA?

How much money does Mayor have invested in all the newspaper's i have mentioned to keep the city incident hidden from the public? (Read-White washing 101)

Hadlock seguro!

When it comes to truth you media men out there do your jobs and report everything and stop hiding what are the real truths going here so the public can be made aware of the true ills of society! No matter how much a bribe your all getting to white wash issues here and you know it as well as I do.

So much goes unreported here in Tagbilaran/Bohol?

The massage therapist is no where to be found on the records? Strange is it not?

Mike we had this discussion twice in person about how he has always gone after you. I know your heart is always good and I remember the story you told me during dinner at Gerry's grill with just Chito Vissara and I.
He has even been saying things about how much he has helped with the dead Americans case.
On the radio last Saturday,
I will listen this morning to his show which is starting now.
He always take his recorded tape with him so that no one will get it and record it after he has said all his nasties then we might have worms in here that will take this blog to him and show him the things being said.
You have always said that even though he is like that he is a good mayor?
I'm not so sure what you may think of him now?
He is practical, but in person he is funny if you see the guy has a sense of humor.
I think today is my turn because of my write up last week in balita front page i am sure has him peviolad?

It was later said that Jack Nicholsan who played Joker in the other Batman movies had also warned Ledger not to take such sleeping pills.
Nicholsan also commented in an MTV interview that the movie maker's did not approach him to play the sequel and he did not know about the sequel as well as he says he can play that role well.

I was thinking about that already.
I hope what ever they are planning works out in the end if they find what they are looking for ?
If not leave things alone as they are in their own beautiful way.

Cool is some one in here living on the beautiful Island of Victoria B.C.?

I love Bouchart Gardens, the museo near the bear and is Madam Tusad's Wax museum still around?

I live in Washington state just a boat ride away when i an back home.

Love the Canadian dark chocolate as well! Lami!

Mayor to my recollection has torn down three major squatter area's in the last year or two.
The first one being the bus terminal behind Dao bus terminal.
The second one, In the heart of the city center across from the Sarmiento bldg, and it wiped out an entire block.
Now the third being done in a very popular wet market for isda down below the cathedral?

Tagbilaran is becoming mahal in isda and tumbal!

It just seems like we have an increase in crime everytime shanties are being torn down and taken away from persons who have a hard enough time living a it is.

I feel looy for people who are the one's trying to live and support their families under these conditions.

A liability fund is not giving. A liability fund or liability insurance often saves you from being over sued.

The truck is a city owned which means logical to me to have liability insurance on it for such accidents and injuries including fatalities.

The water dept. should make sure that the persons working for them are properly licensed and insured for the job they are hired for.

The dump truck was on official business it was being taken home after delivering equipment used at the Christmas party.
The garage was locked to the motor pool so the boss instructed the driver to park the truck at his residence for safe keeping.

The police man story you told about is sad and maddening they should give a life time of assistance to policemen killed on duty.

Jason was not working n a high risk job working when he was killed it was sudden.
What frustrates the system is why they can not release blood to be bought in emergency situations such as Zach's case?
The blood was available for sale at 9:AM that's really stupid procedure when some one is losing blood they do not want to save a life here to bad since the blood is available for sale all 24 hours in a day?
Zach' might have been able to be saved if the Dr. could of administered blood into him  while he was losing it fast.

I do not honestly get the logics of this countries way of thinking when it comes to things such as this?

The system needs to made right for the people to be able to live a normal life and be treated in a humanitarian way.

Thanks Blue Angle for the compliment.

If i was to ask Mark Monton where is funds are coming from I am sure knowing Mark he would not give out that kind of information.

All i know is Mayor had just about every banker management in his chambers having meeting for almost 2-3 hours.
I do not know the kinds of transactions going on inside as I did not ask it is not my business my mission is to make sure people in life who are dealt a bad deal need help in being picked up again to get back on their two feet.
Some People here some times lack compassion for others who are suffering shock and trauma and when this happens and they have no one to lean on when in this condition it can lead into a nervous breakdown and eventually affect that person for life.
If someone in my family is driving negligently in my families business back home and they killed some one on the road bet me my mom's insurance in our restaurants and her own monies would be awarded in a law suit to the family who had lost a loved one.

I do not get the point of your question where is the budget coming from?

I know Mark had mentioned for the time being for this week the budget is not sufficeint enough?

If they are willing to come up with it as part of their apology then why ask questions?

The concern is for the baby here. They lose their apartment this week they are preparing to move out today the wife and the baby.

The accident is caused by the city anyone one knows traveling too close behind the vehicle in front of you and you hit it then you are automatically at fault.

The pictures were presented in yesterdays hearing where the body was laying on the road and where the truck had been in position after the impact.

Many witness's were out at that time and they are the one's who had taken the pictures of the accident scene.

The evidence of damage is in the passanger side smashed out right headlight.

I can not tell if your question is for concern or whether it is being sarcrastic becaause the next question you asked about investigation?

Do you have a doubt that it is not the fault of the city gov't?

last month a foreigner and his filipina partner had to close down their business in a busy tourist spot here because they had transported and recruited some children from out of area places and they were performing naked in the business establishment.
It's getting so uncontrollable out there in the world these days.

Starbucks coffee man is that some bitter tasting coffee but i do love the caramel hot drinks in the winter time but my butt should could go with out!
I am so naughty! Di Ba!

MY mama was a hippie and I was once a flower child! Hippies are good imagine Alaska thats neat!

ha ha ha

Being one who lives on the pacific northwest coastline let me tell you what it is really hard to clean up ans safe animals who are affected by such accidents as spills.

Iwant to say buyag in hopes that it would never happen or the environment here would never be the same again for the white sandy beach edges that we have now.

His body will remain at COOP Funeral Home for veiwing untill this afternoon and then he will be transported to his smaller home town region later on in the day.
Last night many school teacher's from HNU had attended the mass session of the slain X NPA member.
I have spoke to many people here who said he was their friend.

I was mad when i has seen tolinang at a whopping almost P160.00 ang kilo?

Walay klaro jyud!

Isda taga Leyte province munga P3.00 ang kg  buwad bero dre sa bohol munga P20.00 sa taas jyud

Thanks for the compliment.
It has been a lot of work.
The mother of the victim really liked your compassion she emailed me that you had contacted her.
Nice job goes to you also!

I participated in sinulog for two days also during the year 2006 and it was allot of fun for me also. Made me admire Ceb even more.
I do not care for the one of the persons in charge of the committee he is really a snootapottomas!
I am being nice when I say that.
I did enjoy getting my composed CD of sinulog from a friend of mine Elvis Somosot who is known for his Alturas, Marcella, Nature Spring, Marcella feeds, jingles here in Bohol.
Elvis is also a regular judge of Alturas Show Down every year.

You would hopefully think that they have a liability fund for such stupididness the hearing is going well.
The driver is saying sori he knows he is the fault but the court still must follow the hearings. the next hearing is going to be on Feb, 1st.

Who cares where it comes from the baby's father is dead can you bring him back for any price?
Do I look like the city treasurer i am just pleased that we are getting some sort of care from the city government at all. Mo ba?

ooo i will be there! i will be the next one to give the same presentation.

I will be giving the same seminar during the Provincail PNP Woman's and Childrens Complaint Desk (WCCD) during the Christmas party,
coming this Feb 8th, at an over nighters party for lady PNP workers here in Bohol.

Kit if you can not make the presentation I am willing to proxy for you girlfriend!

Question?

How could it be rotten in Denmark when it is happening here in Tagbilaran City?

Last Monday i seen Dan Lim entertaining many banker's in his chamber's and he knew "Pie" and i were waiting in the lobby to talk with him in his office but he went out the back door as quiet as a back pack rat.

Ha ha ha ha ha in Bohol I am  proud to say I use what ever Surf bar scent is popular aroma of the week para sa mawhugas ang platitos!

Last night I had the privilege to be invited to the board of director's diocese specail board meeting concerning a British National with a dual American citizenship who passed away in Boy district this past almost two months ago.
Until not the cadaver of George William Dawson has not been claimed by any members abroad who have the funds to handle the disposal of the body.
Both the American embassy and the British embassy do not have funds to handle the cadaver nor are they authorized to touch the cadaver.
The man was a veteran of foreign wars through the British Army  and this is an Allied with the American Army Dawson also became a dual citizen as well in the United States.
Several files have been destroyed over the years with the VFW and many veterans are unknown because of lost records or simple negligence on the American side.
The people here are not allowed to touch the cadaver they are only allowed to preserve it until some one can claim him.
I was at the COOP Funeral home last evening and what I had seen inside the coffin was not good as the cadaver is showing signs of weakening and has started decaying and the coffin inside has drips of moisture falling down on the cadaver.
Two months is too long of time.
Time for the right authorities to come along and settle this case of the melting casket.

last night I had the privilege to do research work for on of my media colleagues Jerry Pabe on Tagbilaran by night show.
We had a fun time. His show was really busy tonight with another issue of another passed away foreigner that I had attended a meeting on regarding how to dispose of a two month cadaver at the coop meeting held with the board members of the diocese of Tagbilaran.
Tonight during our normal topic many texter's and police reports coming in about several hold ups tonight.
One hold up was a student from PMI college.
One bag containing expensive diving apparatus's was snatched from a foreigner living in Tagbilaran city yesterday his name is Bennie Ressenfield 36 years of age,
Staying in Panglao.
The bag was found and recovered by a very honest Boholanon name who's name is Rey C. Sosmena.
The bags contents contained 3 mouth apparatuses, two compression valves, with all their hoses attachedhoses, along with one compression gauge.
There it should go to show that we stillhave great people out there who care and who are honest even in this hard of times.

Yesterday "Pie" and I went to have a follow up with Mark Monton from the mayor's office.

Last Monday we set a proposal of what we needed in order to fly to Manila and have room and board payed for as well.
Including meals and ground transportation.

Yesterday Mark Monton from the cities gov. office informed us that when there there is a promo at the airlines with in two weeks and a month from now he will buy the tickets for us to get to Manila in order to process the baby's documents to qualify her for the socail security benefits of her late father life that was taken away by the driver with an expired pro driver's license .
I had asked Mark Monton for a written guarantee on his words and he said no need and that he would live up to his words to assist.

Then Mark Monton Mentioned my banner story I had written that the city needs to act on such matter and demands.
The write up was front story and translated by Rey Daley. http//bantaybalita.150m.com

The boys are always flooding bohol in the streets it is so unfair for ladies to have to see that. It has really become a nasty habit here.

IN America in my state it is indescent exsposure.

OKay guys keep holding it untill you get to a proper facility to releive oneself just like us lovely ladies have to.

He might slip his harness....oh man I am cracking a gut up when I seen that surprize i thought it was really "THE GEK"!?

What put the fire under his pants?

Did he get a bad bill from them in his past?

AE office when he represented Congressman Chatto was just at the neighboring side of the PLDT for how many years?

It's an old building not fancy and it is not hurting anything maybe in fact the business has been there before AE was not even a egg yet?

AE this province has more to worry about when it comes to the wellfare of persons versus some old dust office that no one wants.

This reminds me of mayor kicking out squatter's all over the place this past two years.

PLDT should be paying some sort of rental or lease for the place and the conveinant location that is certainly does have.

My how odd I just wonder when two newspaper's came out with fresh pictures of water flowing into this dam how much were they given each to write the story up and I am sure they feasted on baboy caldereta sweet and sour seafoods and red wine?

I went up on the first bayonyang dam Field trip and had taken many pictures used in a newspaper ans some one else kept putting his name on my pictures for credit.
I no longer take pictures for the media like I use to.

Not worth my time anyways.

I am more focused on writing on the good things and making sure that certain situations are handled proper and accordingly.

yea and make your men work as well.

If you make extra money from guys doing specail events then buy lechon and spirits for a Tuesday or Thursday sports fest and share some with the boys who often get guto gutom!

Ha ha ha ha ha! kyle for some strange reason you remind me of my youngest nephew?

It looks like big brother little brother happily strolling along on Big Dumbo! He he he!

I was about your age when I rode on a big elephant and man was it scary we sat only on a blanket with a handle and the blanket bare back pad was thin and the Eley's hair's were something to be hold as they jabbed me in my the thighs!! He he he

oops! i mean wife of victim.

Thank you!

It has been a while since i last brought the victim to this web site after all the shocking things that had been mentioned before that she had read but I will let her know that people here in Tubag Care!

She is from Mabini. Family name is "Tutor".
                                                                          God Bless All!

I am glad you like them Lorenzo

What gets me kuya is why the Sunday Post and the Bohol Times and The Bohol Chronicle did not ever publish a story about this?

Cute picture by the way!............."Whistle!"
