Good place to view the world pass you by...
But their plain brewed coffee is too soft for me... it needs some more kick to meet my expectations.
Manned by a good crew.

From the owners' point of view:

location is great because it is already established as a commercial center of the area with the presence of the cogon market and terminal years before. The more crowd, the merrier; the more chance that those who come in will purchase the items on sale.

From the customer's point of view:

location is convenient, easily acessible; presence of crowd somewhat gives assurance that the stocks are new due to fast turn-over, although over crowding (especially during fiesta season) gives a bit of inconvenience.

Comfort room needs improvement... need to have a such in every floor.

Welcome Virgie, have fun diri!

Could it be possible Ghost has a ghost writer? Nah... I don't think so

Who is this Dandan Bantugan?
What is his reputation?
Is he honest about financial matters?
What is his caliber as city councilor?
Is he a brilliant lawyer?

I think these questions should be answered
first before Bohol councilors would entertain
the thought of voting for him in the PCL
presidency.

Is this an open secret, Mike?
Hmmm...

Vader could be useful with her vat of bahalina. Tap, tap, tap, tap...
Click (of the mouse)

Great! So when is the bachelor's party? Can we do it right here? I'm sure that with a bit of imagination... and few taps on the keyboard... viola! It will be grand, man, that's for certain!

Mike, time for you to get a wife

Ghost, you're so fast, I can't see you.
Where did you go?

Are you here right beside me?
Are you right in front of me?
Are you behind me?

You are all over the place.
You can't be confined by time
                                          and
                                                  space

Ghost, you are so fast, I couldn't see you
Where will you go?

GEC, thanks for noticing. You see, I already told Mike that Chin and I have a lot in common. We enjoy the same gadgets and play the same toys. I yet to give a detailed account on this. Right now, I'm so drowsy I'm afraid what I might say here. Yes, sometimes a wicked woman like me still gets scaredy cat once in a while. Good night.

P.S. You're one of the members in Tubag Bohol I love reading.

Gee, thanks Rose. You're one of Tubag Bohol's members that give me the thrills!
With such colorful language and double (even triple) innuendos, my mind has taken me
to places I very seldom go... or I didn't know even existed.

Rock on!

Aw, maayo gani kay SAYANG gi specify ni rose. I was thinking she meant the other kind of barbequed eggs.

That's the one, mike

Ben Malayang

I'll name her "Hot Ice"

Mike,

Congratulations!
Just like in any party, it's the crowd's attitude and aura that make it worth the while.
Here, it's the depth and width of what our members write
The wit, the fun.... the sensitivity.... the quality... the people

Vader,

I might need more time... 

Not only are you rough on the edges, you are deep, girl-woman.
I need to ponder more on your posts to get the right mix.

Besides, Tubag Bohol is not prepared for you to pass away...
not in this lifetime... happily or in gleeful terror. 

Dear Rose,

What is that in your hand?

I've also asked Vader before what is that in her finger but I'm not sure there was a response.

Very truly yours,

GEC

About the topic...

Is the article talking about school beauty queens who became politicians or school beauty queens who won in other beauty contests?

At any rate, maybe its the culture of the school or the development of the mindset of the individual. 

Beauty pageants at schools happen all the time usually as part of the foundation day celebration. In some schools, the ladies are just content to join (or coerced to join) in the such contests and those who are crowned do not desire to search for higher glory.

This is really bothering me 

I've been experimenting--but always failed--how to make sunny-side up egg like those served at Jollibee... no grease, egg yolk is well cooked. Can anybody show me how?

I asked this question in the thread Who is Capitan Berong.

Hi, Hi, Miss American Pie
Drive me crazy, your so wacky
You might hang me out dry
Them good old boys
Are drinking coffee y'know why?
They hate to see the day
You will cry.

Where is Capitan Berong? 

Vader's so-called roughness on some edges is playfully and naughtily done, ha, ha! 

It's terrorizingly amusing.

A trace of Wednesday of the The Adam's Family and a bucket of that character that Liz Hurly played as a sultry she-devil. 

About the taste of the adobong puso, I think I tasted one (or something similar) but it was in a Chinese restaurant. Dihay piraso nga adobong baboy sa sulod. Ang kan-on pilit-pilit (morag gisagulan og pilit bugas [glutinous rice]) nga medyo brown ang color tungod sa adobo sauce.

About the the taste of the vegetarian dinuguan, lami jud sama sa tinood nga dinuguan 

Can it be possible to put a metal plate inscribed with this historical bit at the second floor of the provincial capitol? The second floor lobby is filled with pictures of Bohol's past governors. This historical fact would be an interesting additional read.

While waiting for Mike's reply, I'm reminded of a special kind of dinuguan which my grandma's sister (lola gud gihapon nako) used to prepare when they throw out a party:

Instead of pig's internal organs, they used banana flower (puso sa saging)
Instead of pig's blood, they used tablea.
The usual spices for dinuguan goes into the dish.

Both she and her husband were vegetarians, that's why.

I haven't tasted this dish for more than 15 years since my grandma passed away.

The government and tourism players in Bohol should make a policy--
Some trees are already growing on some of the hills as a natural course of nature.
Should these trees be left alone to grow into maturity and alter the appearance of
the hills (just like what is happening to the hills in Batuan) or
intervene and cut these down to preserve the shape of the hills - but in the process
making a prohibited activity within the protected area.

congratulations, GEC!

Thanks, lumine.

You have a very cute baby 

How do we post pictures?

Gee, how time flies... I'm now a junior member

About the poems...
I'm not even sure they can be classified as such.
I don't consider myself a poet
but I do pray I will ripen into one someday
call them poetic attempts if you may
I made them up at the spur of the moment
a slice in time of the of the mind.

For whatever they are worth...
as it may please the great moderator of this forum
so be it.

I am so excited about Transformers The Movie, produced by Steven Spieldberg.
I grew up on Transformers... and before that, old animated shows like Mazinger Z, Voltes V, Mecanda Robot, Grandizer, etc.

I can't wait for June 28 to come, the premier of the movie here.

Aren't you curious what's that on Vader's finger?

LOL, now everybody knows!

Got to dress up for work, everyone.... C yah online later

I'm all over the place, mike.
Well, at least, where my imagination
take me. He, he   

Sayang dili updated ang Sunday Post... they can very well afford it baya.

There were some... especially those who were already my friends before the "kitkit" and a handful of those I meet at the "kitkit".

Thanks for the compliment, Mike, but I'm not really that good.
I'm in a journey of rediscovering my old love which I have
taken for granted, and with the deepest regret, because of the
demands of my work...

Vader once asked me if i'm a he, she, uncertain, or an "it".

(Funny, witty lady, this girl named Vader. Just like you, Mike.)

I told her she can consider me a "he".

Let me share my experience about starting an addiction.

Back in the days when there were still no mibile phones, VHF radio transceivers were the "in" thing. I was still in high school then and I, together with my brother and our neighbor would get our parents VHF at night and do a "radio net", just like the legitimate amateur radio league.

We invented callsigns and locations coming from all over the world. Those checking in would reach to about a hundred and yet, actually, there were only 3 of us. We do this almost every night.

Little did we know that the grown ups (the legitimate members of the amateur radio league) were actually monitoring us and enjoying our antics.

Soon they allowed their children to join our nightly activity over the radio and the group grew up into one huge network of teenagers who "kitkit" the nite away, meeting friends even though they just stayed at home. It was good, clean fun without the risk of getting out at night.

And then, the mobile phones came.

But that is another story...

Yep.
I bring my work at home.
And for the very important work, I bring them wherever I go.
I'm at home pa at this time...

His column at the Bohol Sunday Post is called  "True". Hope you can access it online. If you want, you may apply as one of his VRS. 

Honestly, I'm not sure, Mike. I rarely tune in to music radio stations.
I didn't even know it was a song until just recently.

Usahay, adunay mga butang nga wala koy kalibutan, he he.

Lawyers - it's about enjoyment of liberty
Doctors - it's about enjoyment of life
Liberty is just part of life
But what is life without liberty?

GEC, your heavy feeling needs South Beach Diet program.   

LOL ... maybe for the feeling but not for my body

Aha! I have a heavy feeling I know who American Pie is!

Funny...
I'm reminded of the song "people are strange"
one of the soundtrack of the movie "The Lost Boys" (mid to late 1980s)
The movies tagline: Sleep all day, party all night, never grow old, never die. It's fun to be a vampire.

URGENT PUBLIC WARNING:

Tubag Bohol is addictive
The people here can hear your deepest thoughts
                                                                                            and desires
They listen
                       even to the softest murmurs
                                                                           you make while
                                                                                                          you dream

The raging debate right here is the oil exploration off the waters between Bohol and Cebu.

Some questions raised:

1. The extent of damage of the seismic survey, which is done by detonating explosives, in terms of  envirornmental damage and fish catch.
2. Should the owners of "payaos" be paid first before they are removed?
3. Assurance that the LGUs will get their share of the national wealth.

New diseases are coming out everyday. Things may still get worse before they get better.

I read somewhere here that Mike will soon become a lawyer. No fear, Mike!

Doctors, by their Hipocratic Oath, will put public health and welfare above all.
Lawyers, by their training and mind-set, will give law and order primary concern.

I take this short pause to remember the life of Luz Butalid Zubiri, wife of Ben Zubirir, the composer of the immortal ballad "Matud Nila".

She has crossed over to the other shore in May this year.

She, together with her two other sisters, were the ladies in the song, "Sa Lungsod sa Buenavista (may tulo ka mga dalaga)". Ben Zubiri spent time in Buenavista as a guerilla during World War II.

Have you seen the TV series Alias?

The way they conduct their meetings is very superb!

While not exactly talking about taking over the whole breadth and length of Asia, but planning how to penetrate a tightly guarded fortress halfway across the world, retrieve a highly secured artifact, and get out without being noticed, their meeting took no more than 40 seconds.

That's the kind of meeting I want to be in. Everybody is ready and prepared way before the meeting is called. and yes, there were no arguments.

English is becoming the universal language.
French is losing (or has it already lost) its position as the language for international diplomacy.

Twas all due to hard work and good programing. Congrats!

The monitor shows we have more than 40 guests browsing.
Come join and contribute your piece...
It's fun...
You can talk on serious topics, too, sometimes
And when you say what's in your heart (like what Bobby Cericos did)...
You will actually feel better.

Waking up early?

That is not a healthy option....

That would mean taking my cold shower at 5am (we don't have a water heater at home)
Cold shower will have a "chilling effect" on my bones
Chilled bones will soon become brittle
Brittled bones cannot do its intended function to support the body

Unless... you will send me a complete set for water heating in my bathroom... NOW THAT IS A HEALTHY OPTION!

Walking may not be a healthy option when you are
working in Tagbilaran.

There is not much shade trees so the heat of the sun
           will
                   slow
                              you
                                     down
There is too much exhaust emitted from tricycles
and motor vehicles and they
           will
                    slow
                              you
                                      down
Not all street have proper sidewalks and this
           will
                      slow
                                you
                                         down

You meet too many lovely, smiling people
and this, DEFINITELY,

will
                            slow
                                                            you
                                                                                            down!

Ah... what a beautiful way to be slowing down.

Oh, but perhaps Ruffa's hymen is elastic. It stretches, gets dented, snaps a little, and then returns to its original form. Ye of little faith, if rubber band can be elastic, why not Ruffa's hymen?

Woe, woe, woe unto me...
I, who have little faith, am now
condemned to lose it forever!

Grant me one last relief
A balm for my conscience
And renew my faith
On the elasticity of
Women's most ardent and
Riscilient guard of
Their most hallowed
and sacred hall.

Any experience that involves blood is bound to bring tears to your eyes and change your life profoundly. Good to have you here. I missed the part where you breached the wall.. er, Mike's walls. hahaha

I didn't know their marriage was on troubled waters
Well, I'm not really into showbiz stories so it's understandable I'm not updated on these things

But still....

What a pity... especially for the children

Vader,

I read somewhere here you are offering one of your kidneys as a welcome token...
I find this very spiritual
Kidneys function to clean our blood
A hug from you will be a purifying experience
Your bahalina will perk up the senses... virtually

Do the tune.... somebody do the tune, yeah!

Bohol is the cradle of the Filipino civilization....

I'm sure Jes Tirol can write about it. I even suspect he already knows the answer and just waiting for the right  moment to spring the pleasant surprise for the Boholanos the world over.

Ambeth Ocampo will be stunned, that's for sure 

Is it True?

For the community that practiced this tradition:

They feel no qualm or guilt
It is a justified act
A vindication of long-treasured duty of the past
Which must be preserved and nurtured
For the future.

They would say-

                "It's part of our population management program"
                "We cannot afford to breed more spoilers of tradition"
                "We have little food to eat here... better remove the undesirables."

It's a matter of survival for them as a society... as a nation even.

But for us who live outside the confines of their world...
For us whose standard of decency and human dignity is far far different from them--
We can never truly fathom why they consider such act an honorable thing

What is virtuous to them is savagery to us

Apas-sumpay sa tubag sa nangutana:

Whoever you are, wherever you may be,
Somewhere, somehow, in your
God-given body, there is a trace
of Boholano blood in your veins...

Being Boholano is in the attitude, sano.

Tubag Bohol rocks!

It's possible that on the night of their wedding the man did not notice whether or not he has broken the woman's hymen because of any of these reasons:

1. She broke her hymen while filming Pinakamagandand Hayop sa Balat ng Lupa
2. He already did it weeks before the wedding
3. Somebody else did it
4. She was born without it

Ogie and Regine cohabiting?

Sayang si Ogie... what  could have happened sa iyang marriage with that European beauty nga Miss... (i can't remember the country)...

Sayang si Regine... nganong mipatol man siya og minyo nga dako ug mubo pa jud?

It's understandable... women sometimes are hard to understand. But for a man? Sigh...

Asking where are the other members?

I'm sure they have browsed your discussions and read your comments.

But maybe they just don't have anything to share.... maybe they are still figuring out
what to comment that will add value to the topic discussed.

Give them time...

They'll soon warm up...

And before you know it they will soon become superultramagnetichero members

I was invited to Friendster and I registered.
But I never had the time to do things and stuff
That a friensdter usually does at Friendster.

It's different in Tubag Bohol....

It rocks!

Filipino is not Tagalog although it would appear that as of now the first is largely based on the second.
Filipino is still to evolve, or maybe be even already evolving, as a language.
I noticed some Cebuano words are now widely spoken by tagalog-speaking persons, i.e., "bana" (husband) in place for the tagalog's "asawa" which means spouse and gives no distinction whether it referes to the husband or wife. Another is "hinay-hinay".

But let's face it... Sa Pilipinas, mas daghan ang makasulti og Binisaya kay sa Tinagalog pero kadaghanan sa makasulti og Binisaya makasabot/sulti og Tinagalog... and you already know the reason why-- our early education... the popular TV shows...

About the arrogant Pinoys...

Maybe something happened in their childhood
that made them that way now that they are
in a new environment.

Maybe their father never said a word of appreciation to them.
Maybe their mother never hugged them when they were young.
Maybe they were ridiculed by their peers in their formative years.
Maybe they were deprived of many things...
Perhaps even abused?

Something happened in their childhood that made them
what they are as adults.
The fear is that they may be bound to do to their children
how they were treated by their parents...

Hi, hello...
