Much better off.  (Mura pu'g masugdan.  )

Hi, Queen!    Long time, no see.  But now, .... 

Glad to be of service. 

Wa pa ko ningsuway nga pis-an og lemonsito pero mura'g malahi na jud ag timpla sa ginamos ana.  Kung dahon ra, mild ang kahumot.

BTW, I-apil nimo'g season sud sa garapon ang dahon sa lemonsito.

Melrose is the name of an old movie theater along CPG Avenue in Tagbilaran City the facade of which was recently destroyed on orders of the city government.  I don't know how old it was but it may have haled from way back in the early days of the Philippine Republic (dili tung panahon ni Aguinaldo ha).  As early as I can remember in the early and mid-80s it had fallen into some disrepute because of the kind of movies it was then showing although I think Royal (another movie theater) then was much more notorious.

I'm not quite sure but I think I read somewhere in this forum that historian Ambeth Ocampo had noted it as a heritage site.

wala manko kita ana drir, moingon man gani sila kung kita namo mangaon ug buwad nga isda daw sa aquarium, nisamot na guro kung kita ug bolinaw

I think they're called anchovies in English.

Kung gusto ka'g humot-humot imong ginamos, pwede nimo apilan og pipila ka dahon sa lemonsito.

Unsaon pag-gamos halayo sa yutang natawhan:

Una sa tanan, duna ka bay ka-palitan og bolinaw o uban pang gamay nga isda?  Kung naa, palit sa didto og igo-igo jud sa usa ka garapon (depende na ninyo unsa kadak-a ang garapon).  Sa usa ka planggana, hugasi'g ayo ang bolinaw (pwede pu'g di na nimo hugasan aron naay "extra flavor").  Ijabo ang hinugasan.  Asini ang bolinaw (kanang daghan jud kaayo pero tilawi pud ang tino nga duga kung ensakto na kay tingali'g masubrahan nimo).  Ayoha og sagol.  Human niining tanan, isud sa garapon ang isda.  Takubi'g tarong.  Ibilin sa suok ug kalimti.  Human sa pipili ka mga semana, panghinlo sa balay.  Makit-an nimo sa suok ang imong gi-gamos.  Imong abrihan.  Ginamos na. 

Anyway, you have some valid points, Franklin.  There may be no point to increasing the numbers of a corrupt police force, however, I do not believe that the PNP is totally corrupt.  Further, increased police visibility does help bring down the incidence of criminality.

Quote from: Franklin on August 21, 2007, 01:45:40 AM
Am I jealous of the police?
What? Makes no sense.

I am not criticizing because I an a US citizen and I want to put the Philippines down.
I am critical of police everywhere.

Mick Jagger said it, "all the cops are criminals, and all the sinners, saints"

Before you think your thoughts, think why would I say these things. I want to live full time in the Philippines, I want it to be safe. That's all.

To quote Mick Jagger of all persons.  He may be a great entertainer but the guy's more famous for his lips than he is for the quality of his thoughts.  That sanctimonious so*ovab*tch has exploited an art form that has its roots in black music yet refuses to support social welfare that would provide the help needed by the poor and unemployed to get by in difficult times.  All the guy is after is a tax cut.  Any philosophy he spouts may just be lip service.

Can't afford other places. 

Ani ra ko's Bohol.

This was featured in an anime once, I forget the title of the cartoon.  I thought then that it was only fiction.  I am surprised to find out that this is true.

Jerjer is an equivalent to the term "toyi," and, to quote myself from somewhere else in this forum, owes its coinage to Teban of "Teban and Goliat" fame.  It was intended as a euphemism for sex but, by its own merit, eventually became a dirty word in itself.  I first heard of it in late 2003 and, since I'm usually one of the last to know, it may have already been in circulation even a year before that.

Please let it be noted that our "isda sa bato" is not a functional translation for the stone fish.  We use "isda sa bato" to refer to demersal fish in general.
Although the stone fish is a "isda sa bato" it is not the only "isda sa bato." 

Dugo-dugo.  Mmmmmmmmmmm.....

This is just to notify those who've read the interview that in place of the "POEA," in the paragraphs regarding the oil exploration, one should read instead the "DOE" or Department of Energy.

I noted them down from a book by Prof. Emmanuel Luis Romanillos.  When I first read these many years ago, perti nahong pagka-kurata.  Daan na jud nga isug ang Bol-anon.  In the researches of the late Prof. William Henry Scott, dili pud ta pa-awahi.

What others are there?

"The Boholanos are so brave and valorous that they have spread to many neighboring islands where their descendants preserve their name Boholano, of which they are very proud, as we are in foreign lands of the name of Spaniards."
                                                        - Jesuit friar and historian Pedro Chirino

"Boholanos are the most warlike and the most valiant among the Indios."
                                                        - historian Murillo Velarde

"(The) people of Bohol are warlike indios (who) had created plenty of trouble in the past years."
                                                        - Jesuit friar and historian Francisco Colin

These three men were all Spaniards and they all said these of Boholanos in the early 17th Century.  Admittedly, Chirino may have been an "Indio-phile" but still to be regarded in such terms and to be singled out for our courage and valor should be a source of great pride for all of us Boholanos.  Even Velarde and Colin give their grudging respect of Boholano spirit. 

We have produced heroes, a President, several senators of the Republic, athletes of international renown since the days of the late Congressman and Olympian Simeon Toribio, the Loboc Children's Choir, the Dimiao Children's Rondalla, artists, scientists, and scholars. 

So the next time someone asks, "Where is Bohol?"  Ask him, "Hindi ka ba nakapag-aral?"

These fellow Filipinos who make us the subject of their ridicule can only be stupid and ignorant sons of biitches.  Uneducated bastards with not a whit of history or of geography in their rotting and infested excuses for brains which may shortly be liquefying into so much pus.

Blame Boom Boom's hired CPA who tricked him into believing that "tax avoidance is an art" when this booboo of an accountant only led him to a crime of tax evasion. Mr. Bautista should sue his CPA for malpractice and claim his tax due to the gov't as damages. This will teach  some of our professionals (including CPAs) to honor their code of ethics!

Exactly.  What would Boom-Boom know about filing his income tax returns?

Yes, one should not look to the religion for blame but on the people who claim to profess it.  In having fathered a child, this priest may have failed to observe his vows but the Church is not beyond forgiving one who asks for forgiveness.  The reasons why he killed his son are his alone and he will be made to answer for the gruesome murder, if not by human justice than perhaps by a higher justice.

Here's a game I used to play when I was a kid.  It's a little like TextTwist.  I'll provide a word and you form words from its letters.  Of course, you don't need to use all the letters but you have to time yourself.  I recommend from ten to fifteen minutes.  Merely adding an 's' is not counted unless it's an entirely different word and not just a plural form or a certain tense.  There are no winners here.  You only have the fun of playing the game.  Here's an example on how to play this one:

justice

just, cut, ice, suit, jut, jet, set, site, tie, cite, sit, sect, set

(You probably get it now.)

Here's the first word:

ordinary

(It's not for everyone but I hope you enjoy it. )

Although I think being able to communicate with each other matters in a marriage, intellect can't be the sole basis for choosing a partner.  If I were on the sickbed, I'd be far more comforted by kind words and a compassionate hand than by a discussion of the vagaries of M Theory or differential calculus.

In Philippine lower mythology, the sigbin has, for the most part, not been depicted as a ghoul or as a consumer of viscera and blood.  So one need not fear the sigbin so much as one should fear a wakwak.  Pero kung naa ka sa nihit nga lugar mura'g angay na jud pud kahadlukan ang sigbin.  Ug kay ako sigbin man, kahadluki ko ninyo.
