Not meaning to chastise you C2H4, just was surprised.

Also 2 wrongs don't make a right.(your mention of those other sins)

Oh, but I was merely trying to point out that some people are crazy. Crazy people, anywhere in the world, don't even need a reason to kill. They just do. The Filipinos are no exception. There are some crazy filipinos out there. Are you American? I'm sure there are crazy Americans too...(e.g. Britney Spears)

But I am with you on this, Mr Franklin. I am righteously outraged. But I choose to channel my rage in my own way. It might not suit other people's sensibilities, the way I react to things, but it doesn't make me wrong. Or right. It just makes me who I am.

With regards to this 16 yr old boy who was killed, at least the suspect is in custody. He has confessed. And that accusation about the boy raping the girl? The medico legal who'll examine her will soon shed light on this. I believe justice will be served this time. The killer will be punished.

my day was soooo great... I had a great time chatting w/ my nephew & Niece today... gravveehhh kaau ang among mga topic kay naay pagka-GREEN... whew!!! 

Hi swaks!

Ka sayang wala ko ninyo gi apil sa chika...

Salamat sa imong post, Miss Melrose.

Daghan ka'g mga puntos nga wala nako na huna hunaan before nga karon medyo ako nang nasabtan.

Pero nag wonder lang ko usahay ngano nga ang mga bol-anon, kung molangyaw na sa laing mga probinsya, mouswag man gyud sila? Butang nga wala nila nabuhat samtang nag estar pa sila sa atong probinsya?

Could it be nga mawala atong pagka tapulan kung maka abot ta sa laing lugar? Or could it be, tungod kay komportable na kaayo ta sa atong yutang natawhan, wala na ta'y effort nga manikay sikay?

Or siguro, tsamba lang gyud? Ang mga bol-anon nga ning uswag outside of Bohol, na suertehan lang gyud?

Sakto pud ka sa imong pag ingon nga kining atong pag dahum sa kalamboan, dapat tambayayong ta tanan. Wala man gud ko'y ma suggest nga idea, mao na akong gipasa sa mga politicos. They're convenient targets, if we could blame the weather on the politicians, we would.

Pero mo agree gyud ko nga ang kauswagan sa usa ka tawo, nag depende ra gyud na niya. Dili nato mabasol nga tungod wala'y job openings/hirings, or tungod sa ka pobrehon. Daghan man mga tawo ba nga ning uswag gikan sa kapobrehon sa kaugalingon nilang pagpa ningkamot. Galing lang, ang kada tawo lain lain ug approach unsaon pagpangita ug kuarta. Ang uban molangyaw, ang uban manulis, ang uban molansar. Lahi Lahi gyud ug style.

With regards to the topic, na puzzle pud ko bahin anang gi ingon nga komunismo sa Bohol. Growing up in Sagbayan, nakakita ko'g mga NPA once or twice. Ambot unsa'y sinugdanan ani nila. Pero mo salvage man kuno ni sila ug corrupt officials. Nakakita pud ko sa una ug tulo ka tawo didto sa health center nga gipatay sa mga NPA, kato kunong mga tawhana, naay mga gi daug2x nga mga tawo. So siguro, the NPA is against anyone who seems to be oppressing the people.

Pero sakto pud nang imo Miss Melrose, nga ang mga tawo puede man maka tanom ug kamote, balanghoy, kamunggay. Mabuhi naman unta. Ang mga taga Papua New Guinea man gani, ga kutkot ra ug ubi, wala'y kuryente, ga bahag ra sila, unya daghan pa gyud lamok nga maka malaria, malipayon man sila sa ilang kahimtang. Pero ang mga pilipino man pud kay gusto man gud pud maka cellphone nga naay camera, gusto mokaon sa Jollibee, gusto motan-aw ug sine kung starring na si Judy Ann ug Piolo, gusto mo sakay ug aircon nga V-Hire kay mosuroy sa Alturas...unya kung dili ni nila makab-ot, maong mo reklamo sa ilang ka pobrehon.

Maybe we need to re-define our view on happiness. Maybe our public servants need to start programs that remind our people the value of simplicity, that eating kamote with ginamos is not necessarily a bad thing.

I miss to follow this thread.

Here's my rebuttal:

Love is about Sweet Surrender.

"Make me a slave, my love," a poet once wrote.

Mr Admin, basin sunod ani mo kanta ka'g I'm A Slave For You by Britney Spears.

luoy lagi si Mr Admin, Miss Melrose...

gitabangan sa mga kinky girls

Gi unsa man siya pagtaban sa adlaw?

Medyo ga libog ko'g interpret ani da...

pero mura'g si Miss Ginger ang pasabot ani, kay naa man siya sa Land of the Midnight Sun karon...

mao siguro buot pasabot nga gitaban sa adlaw...

hmn...

I hope to read more of Mr Sigbin's poems, kay ma inspire jud ko mokaon.

This poem should be read to all sufferers of anorexia and bulimia.

Mr Sigbin, when man ka mag post ug poem dire nga dedicated to Miss Ginger?

Quote from: Bohol on September 23, 2007, 01:40:00 PM
Ethyl, it's just a poem. I welcome questions.

Thank goodness. Reading your poem, mura'g mataha naman hinuon ko mangutana.

Mr Ferniz,

this brought tears to my eyes...

Wow! A nice one, Mr Admin.

This is a lyrical way of telling people to, "leave me alone!"...

sus lami kaayo nang tilapia ms belle...

baked, grilled...yum yum yum

night night sleep tight

SIL = sister in law

mao lagi oi,

daghan na listahan...

ambot unsaon ni pag manage, between work and TB and now, trying to read books...

24 hrs in a day is not enough

Dili gud intawon pahalata, harap harapan naman gani.

kanus-a man ang deadline, ms willmerit?

This is a funny headline.

Kills cock thief.

My mind's too green.

Miss Belle, pag palit ug boy ug girl nga Tilapya sa Asian Market, then ipa langoy2x lang dayon nimo sila sa imong lake. Mo daghan na dayon na ilang babies.

Hehehe.

Nganong puro expats man tag-iya sa mga resorts sa Panglao?

Dili ko motuo nga sila ra maka afford tukod resorts oi.

Asa naman atong mga milyonaryong politikos?

They need to put their pork barrels to good use, and build them a resort.

Nice.

(this is an atrophied brain, as described by Mr Sigbin)

Brayt gyud ni si Mr Relampagos. Kahibaw jud siya wala'y paingnan iyang mga reklamo sa eleksyon.

Mao nay gitawag nga weather weather lang. Better luck next time nalang siya.

Hahaha!

Nangutana jud intawon si Miss Belle oist, nag duda ka kung si Admin ba jud na?

This was a nice diary entry, up until the end, the part about an American owner.

Wa sya kuyapi?

That's weird.

One of the hot cars was stolen in 2002, and only sold this year?

They were hiding it all these years?

Wa ko kasabot.

Hahaha!

Kaluoy pud sa donkey ug camel oi, kutasan!

I really liked this too. I kept a copy in my email.

Maya Angelou is such a gifted poet. I've only read Why The Caged Bird Sings, years ago, and I loved it. I should read more of her books. Another trip to the library!

Mr Admin, I can't afford an iPod either. Don't worry, hatagan lagi ta ni Santa.

Mao bitaw dili pa ko gusto mag baktin kay dili nako maka gara gara.

Well, first off, define sexually active. We need to quantify. Hahaha.

But there is no truth to that, dodong.

Better go through the front door, dodong.

Quote from: Franklin on September 23, 2007, 05:29:15 AM
I was a little surprised you would make a joke in this thread where it was mentioned that someone was stabbed or killed for his cellphone.
I guess that killing someone for a cellphone has become so commonplace that people joke about it.

Mr Franklin, I did not mean to joke. I'm sorry if it came off that way. That was callous of me.

Murder is not something to laugh about. I had a classmate in high school who was stabbed to death for her cellphone, and I was righteously outraged.

But being a man of the world, as I assume you are, you should also know that people have killed for much less.

Like that man in NY who pushed a teenage girl at the subway for apparently no reason at all. Or that man in Cebu who stabbed another person because he didn't like the way the other person looked. Or that man in Manila who stabbed (with an icepick) the person next to him in the jeepney because he couldn't stand the other person's body odor. How about that au pair who shook a baby to death because the baby wouldn't stop crying? How about the man who killed Jon Bennet Ramsey? who knows what his reason was for killing her...Or how about Hitler, killing off the Jews?

I will never joke about these things. But I also acknowledge that the world is as it is, and people are who they are. Mr Franklin, if you stress yourself out every time a crime happens, you will give yourself a heart attack. And that in itself is a crime, because Tubag Bohol will have lost a brilliant mind.

People have always killed and murdered each other. And we will continue to kill and murder each other until North Korea's crazy leader lets loose his nuclear toys and blows the world to bits. Or until Jesus' second coming. Whichever comes first.

Mr Admin, not having a laude with your degree, does not make you any less intelligent.

Although a laude certainly lends you tremendous bragging rights (and notoriety), what matters is how effective you are outside the classroom.

A cousin of mine graduated summa cum laude from the Ateneo, and was 1st place in the national board exams, but now finds himself unemployed. Sadly, he couldn't be as effective in his career as he was in the classroom.

And also I know a Bol-anon who was a 2nd-yr high school dropout who now has several laudes working for him, sa iyang kumpanya.

As to what I could teach Gloria, maybe I could teach her this:

When your husband is unfaithful and cheats on you regularly, kick his a** out. You won't be the first separada in the world, and you won't be the last. You'll run the country better without a deadbeat husband weighing you down.

Of course, this is not to say Mike Arroyo is a deadbeat. I am speaking purely from a rhetorical perspective.

Dodong, do you think Lorenzo Junior is jealous of your dila?

After all, Mr Dila has been to places Lorenzo Junior can only dream of.

They might have read the study saying that cool weather is conducive to mental exercise. Maybe our officials want to maximize the 1% that is usable of their brains. Baguio then is the ideal place for mentally tough events like a provincial congress.

Dodong, is that recommendation based on personal experience?

Don't deny, don't tell a lie...

dodong, are you joining the virgin bandwagon and proclaiming yourself as such?

hmn...hmn...hmn...

Ning daghan naman ang virgins oi...naa si Hajji, si teng, and now, you!

and we thought we've successfully and systematically exterminated the virgin specie!

they're like the ebola virus! they keep coming back!

what to do? what to do?

He's a gifted Promil child.

But what about the recent study revealing that cellphones are loaded with millions of bacteria and infective microorganisms?

Marketing a cellphone that doubles as a vibrator is not a very healthy idea.

Just my two cents.

On the other hand, there are people who like living on the edge. They might like this kind of phone.

Ok, back to the topic.

What can we do to be proactive in our response on the increasingly higher incidence of cell phone snatching?

Higher than higher...

Half and half. I was half-serious when I said that.

The Nokia 3210 was the only cellphone I've ever owned in the Philippines, and while my friends were getting their fancy camera phones stolen left and right, no one even bothered to steal mine. I'm just saying it might be a good idea.

Does the brand of the cellphone matter?

Maybe people should reconsider using the old Nokia 3210 or 5110, then.

Quote from: Hajji on September 23, 2007, 03:30:32 AM
always use some protection! always bring you condoms!

Condoms can break. They can rupture.

The ideal thing is to be monogamous. And to require a health certificate from someone, before you go out on a date.

Mao jud Miss Bambs, he is not fulfilling his pre-ordained fate as a man--that of spreading his seed far and wide so our people can multiply and multiply some more.

AIDS is the great equalizer of our times.

It respects no one.

I have come across a couple of HIV patients, and they looked normal and healthy. Dili gyud mailhan sa nawong. And I must admit, upon learning they were positive, medyo na shock ko, maybe because I had this silly notion that they'd somehow be different.

Karon ra jud nako na realize that STDs are really so much more common than we think. And the percentage of young, young people with STDs is alarming and depressing. The prevalence in that age group is so high.

I wish naa na'y maka diskubre ug cure for HIV, or at least, a vaccine for it, like the one they have now for HPV.

But in the meantime, I hope our young people would be more careful and more selective with their sexual partners.

Looks can be deceiving.

From the post, it seems like it was talking about the Chinese, Korean, and Japanese people.

They are natural entrepreneurs.

I wonder if race or genetics has something to do with this?

Although there are some outstanding Filipino entrepreneurs, the Filipinos in general, are not natural businessmen.

This is proven when we go out of our comfort zone, and migrate to other countries. In the US, the majority of the Chinese, Japanese and Koreans own businesses. Filipinos? gamay ra kaayo...I've also observed that Filipinos abroad are more inclined towards high-paying white-collar jobs. Mas komportable siguro ta working jobs than owning businesses?

We probably like being called professionals (doctors, nurses, engrs) more than being called business-owners.

Quote from: Franklin on September 23, 2007, 01:40:31 AM
Crimes against Filipinos by Filipinos.
There was recently an event here in my state where a very young woman who was supporting her family back in the Philippines was hired by a diplomat(filipino) to be a domestic in his home in California. After the young woman arrived in California from the Philippines she was told that the Philippine diplomat didn't need her, and she was told to go to work for a relative of the diplomat in New Jersey.
After arriving in New Jersy she was basically put under lock and key and was not allowed to go outside of the house. She was fed and paid little. This fairly rich Filipina(where she lives tells me that she has money) kept the young woman prisoner.
Only after a delivery person saw the young woman and somehow the young woman asked for help, was she set free when the police came.
The US governement is giving her rooma and board now and arrangements are being made for her to have decent employment, and be able to stay here legally.

Mr Franklin, as you should know, there is a caste system in the Philippines. There is a clear divide between rich and poor. I have witnessed some rich families who treat their maids/helpers like dogs.

Parents need to know that their children have their own dreams, and don't necessarily want to take-over their carenderia business sa merkado when they die.

Quote from: Macky Ferniz on September 23, 2007, 01:54:55 AM
Aha! This gives me an Idea to build a "Home for the Aged" in Bohol, where rich pensioners could spend thier dollars in a 5 star resort type, ultimate service retirement home instead of a hospital type, low service retirement camp back in the US.

I really think that's a great idea, Mr Ferniz. Mo apply unya ko kung naa na ka'y home for the aged.

Miss Melrose, your post was spot-on. I agree with you a hundred percent. Bohol is poor. I mean, maybe 95% of the population, pobre. As a person who belongs to a family that has migrated to other parts of the country, in search of a better life, I see the difference...sa standards of living. I often ask the Bol-anons I know, "nganong ning bakwit man mo dire sa Mindanao?"...their answer, "day, perteng lisora sa Bohol. Lisod mangita ug panginabuhian".

There are not enough jobs to go around. The agriculture industry is antiquated. There's not enough commerce. There are not enough businesses. There is not enough industrialization.

When I go to Bohol, I feel the poverty. I see the people in the barrios, and I feel the deprivation in their lives. I see the Bol-anons in Mindanao (Bukidnon in particular, where I migrated  ), and they are all engaged in businesses, small and medium-scale. They work in different areas...sa mga humayan, mga maisan, mga tubohan, sa mga binggalahan, sa mga pinyahan. There is also enough trade and commerce, nga ang tawo dili mawad-an ug panginabuhian.

Of course, dili man makumpara gyud because Mindanao is one giant land area of inter-connected provinces, while Bohol stands on its own. Pero sa ako lang na obserbahan, the main thing that revitalizes an area's economy is the trade and commerce amongst its people. Ang mga negosyo sa mga tawo. And there is really not enough of that to sustain the people of Bohol right now.

And how to solve this? I don't know.

Let the politicians figure that one out. After all, they're the ones with the fancy schmancy degrees and titles. Mga maayong laki.
