kalain sad sa mayor na iya man gipaputol ang kuryente.this is an abuse of power.

abuse of power gyod nga klaro, plain and simple.  maayo gani kay wa maapil ang abuse of water. (jok-jok-jok only.)

lain gyod tuod ning magpa-elect to public office unya mubo ug pabilo.  na, nakadaog ra ba gyod intawon ning tawhana.  tungod ba kaha kay sundog-sundog siya sa style ni binay sa makati o di ba kaha tungod kay di tantong kusog ang iyang kontra. 

this mayor needs to learn brinkmanship.

luckily, his eminence is not infallible.  to each his own judgment anyway.  if i were the outgoing president's manicurist and was given the privilege of sitting as one of the board of directors of pag-ibig fund with an allowance of 130 thousand pesos a month, i would also believe she was god's gift from heaven. ;D

at 60, i want to feel like i'm still 30, but with the patience borne out of experience that sometimes it does pay to suffer fools gladly, so unlike what i am now whose fuse admittedly is still too short.

at 60, i hope to look at the globe in our future home library, amid all the books that we've collected, and from whose windows i could look at some ancient trees that no mayor will ever cut, and be able to say that i've been to almost all corners of the globe, even if the globe has no corners because it happens to be round.

at 60, i hope to be able to pray more often, more fervently, and more in thanksgiving, because i shall by then be able to say as i look back at the 60 years of my life, "i couldn't ask for anything more."

the new young technocrat look?  my vision isn't 20/20, so my apologies.  the look strikes me more as the morning-after hangover look, a cousin twice removed of the dazed terrorist look.  but in fairness to the boys in the pic who seemed nice until they were labeled for their beards, they could have come straight from middle earth.

but goodness gracious!  where did that picture of a bearded fellow posted by bai hubag go?  it was his post after ms da binsi's, if i remember right.  i hope no one's declaring martial law again, when nothing must get in the way of his personal opinion. 

i still insist on my understanding that this forum exists not to massage anybody's ego.

cry, my beloved bohol.

having heard (i repeat, heard, not read; because i've been told) the same things from more than one source makes all these stories plausible.  give or take a few million pesos because stories when passed on tend to be either amplified or diminished.  

and there are those who've written about these in local papers.  they're lawyers, and we know what that means.  it is safe to assume that they have proofs.

no one is ever prosecuted for vote-buying despite the law.  that is our tragedy.  

money influences a voter's decision.  what an even bigger tragedy.

it's difficult to imagine how an official can make himself believe he deserves to take office because the people had chosen him over the rest.  there lies the comedy. :(

kun naay naka-report ani sa dswd, kompleto sa names and address sa mga bata, sure gyod ko nga magpadala dayon ug case officer ug matabangan ni sila. 

sa tinuod lang, labi na sa mga lugar nga dagko sama sa cebu city, di gyod hinoon maatol.  pero kun ma-report lang, naa gyoy magpakabana nga social worker.  sophisticated na ang atong dswd.  bisan anomymous phone call ug child abuse, basta lang kompleto ang basic information, ma-under observation dayon ang child abuser nga mahagit pag kiha ani nga government agency. 

nganong kahibawo ko?  nakasumbong na ko sa una against our neighbor nga nitira sa iyang 6-year-old boy ug stapler para carpentry, kanang morag pusil nga dagkog staple wires.  walo ka buok ang natarok sa luyo sa bata.  bisan iro ang gitirahan di to maantos sa makakita.  da, blacklisted lagi ang amahan sa dswd, with ample warnings. 

this won't help those pitiful kids at the moment nor would this give them their next meal, but i must say they are luckier than that abused little boy neighbor of ours long ago because they are together and are thoughtful about each other.

better to be safe than sorry, as they say. 

one thing wrong with the study's methodology, as reported, was that there was an increase in the widespread use of cellphones while the study was being undertaken.  it also included the analog cell phones common in the 1990s as against the current digital ones that are more common now, which have less radiations.  these changed the definitions of the study. 

also, the latency period of glioma, a type of brain cancer, is 25 years, a period longer than the current widespread use of cellphones. 

what is advised though is the use of hands-free phones instead because what is worrisome is the fact that scientists cannot categorically conclude either way--- that cell phone use may or may not cause brain cancer. 

(note:  i read these additional details from yahoo! news with great interest because just now i am trying to come up with good reasons on why our 8-year-old girl shouldn't have a cell phone.)

why man pod tuod nga nidaghan ang squatters sa tagbilaran?  i heard this is one mayor who encourages this unwittingly, kay lagi tabangan ang mga anak ug palit ug school uniforms ug bags inig abli sa schoolyear.  apan di maapas ang pagtabang sa employment sa mga ginikanan. 

why man pod tuod nga nidaghan ang krimen sa siyudad?

lisod baya tuod ning mayor nga burokinto.

nidaog, fine.  why man tuod nga nidaog?  luyang ra ba kaha ang kontra o maayo ang pagkapili ni dan lim sa iyang bise?

the banding of the three former mayors and the cases the mayor is facing have certainly sent a message.  tagbilaran may not really be in good hands.  all we can do is hope for the best now.

unfortunately wolf, yours will not be the last sad story involving relatives. i emphatize with you as this happened to my parents' retirement money, which greatly affected our future college education then

the 'small things' that you do to the children of your fishing village will go a long way for them, i'm sure

me and my wife's earnings are not much at the moment to use it investing in bohol. maybe when we win the lottery :) but i do like the idea of an ecotourism project just like you given the educational and work background i have

one more experience replicated elsewhere, in our milieu.  that's why it pays to follow the advice of sam goldwyn (of metro-goldwyn-mayer pictures of old) who reportedly told albert einstein something like:  'i have my own theory of relativity.  i do not hire them.'

Hahaha, such vivid spirit you have my dear lady,

The context of dreaming never was mitigated by my posts, rather I showed respect to our dear Hubag's preference to dream, and i must say, admit really, that i admire the nonconformity.

Dearest, i merely found the beauty of wolf's post and provided my view of how it blends existentialism to the concept of the survival of the fittest, in reference to wolf's using of brute force as being a tool for the weak and the strong. Actually, i would credit Wolf for that beautiful post.

In regards to Existentialism in its relation to Darwinian Theory of Evolution, I rather find it interesting how it coalesces. I must also add that one's faith does not mean it should limit one to read about different concepts and philosophies. Afterall, that is the beauty of discernment. :)
Again, it goes back to the notion of choice. hehehe! (subject matter in mind, haha).

``

One of my favorite Pinot Noir brands is Cono Sur (Chilean); the taste of red is rather unique to the California or French based due to the soil in Chile as well as the types of casks they use, the casks they use are old whiskey cherry wood casks. You can actually taste a hint of whiskey and the aroma of cherrywood via nasal discernment. One of my favorites.


Respecting your nihilism, but still keeping my youthful existentialist spirit,

Love you,
;)



ps. One can use differential diagnosis to rule out hemorrhoids from syphilis, but a discerned physician/intern will know that there are some STDs that have clinical symptoms of hemorroids, especially if the site of infection was in the anal canal, then can be easily mistaken for hemorrhoids. Since diagnosis does not rely solely on physical diagnosis (IPPA- inspection, palpation, percussion, auscultation), but rather lab diagnosis (PCR, gram stain, Lowenstein-Jensen, Maconkey's, DF, IF etc). And when the results are accumulated, would the proper choice to be made. In either case, RX for syphilis is : A) penicillin or 2nd -3rd generation Cephalosporins.  RX for hemorroids is non-invasive hemorrhoidectomy.

alternative to Syphilis RX: if patient is refractory to penicillin (due to allergy), then we would treat the patient with erythromycine + an adjuvant probenicid.




thanks for the compliment, but i have to point out that the phrase “vivid spirit” is clumsy and infelicitous.  distinct and intensely bright objects can be vivid; accounts, memories and imagination can be vivid; but “spirit” cannot be vivid.  choice of words is like choice of medication; choose the wrong word and you end up mangling your statement.  choose the wrong medication and you prove yourself and incompetent doctor.

so the “context of dreaming never was mitigated” by your posts.  (and thus you changed the topic rather than admit to something that might have changed your mind?)  my mistake.  i couldn’t help but comment on your earlier post claiming hubag’s disinclination to reason because he’d rather dwell on fantasy (quoted thus:  â€œhubag talks about his inability to reason or his disinclination in that, rather, defends the notion of dreams and dreaming…”).  such grand claims about other people’s opinions merit a few minutes’ attention of idiots such as i.    

“Quite existentialist.  This has the aura of Darwinian theory of evolution; the weak must make room for the strong.”

i am quoting from your earlier post your exact words on existentialism and evolution.  no doubt there are points of convergence between the two, but the idea of the weak making room for the strong doesn’t have anything existentialist about it at all.  for instance, the concept of “engaged freedom” which serves as one of the cornerstones of existentialist thought cannot, by any stretch of imagination―much less of reason―coalesce (your term) with the darwinian concept of “survival of the fittest”.

you seem to know your evolutionary theory, but perhaps you should read more existentialist literature.  i won’t suggest titles, since you can easily google them yourself.

after mastering your existentialism, you will probably find out that you don’t have to choose to be discerning, as you still apparently do now.

love ya, my dearest boy.  

i care, so please don’t imbibe too much of your favorite pinot noir while you copy from your medical books (or google) for this discerned sharing of yours.  the words may tumble out from the pages and come out as incomplete sentences, as your existential treatise on hemorrhoids and syphilis shows.  it doesn’t matter, of course.  what is important is you can start practicing your rx on yourself.  don’t worry, dearest of all dears, napoleon had hemorrhoids, nietzsche had syphilis.

which reminds me, you must also try lambanog from our country’s north.  the nearest that i can compare it to is the greek ouzo (which, to my husband’s dismay, i once half-filled a bottle with star anise to make ‘anisado wine’ for my tocino; it turned out great).  i tried lambanog once, long ago, and felt as if my ears fell off.  nothing can be more vivid a spirit worth imbibing than this one.      

keep on with your youthful existentialist spirit and your elementary understanding of existentialism, dearest, for as long as it keeps afloat your sense of self,

Isles,

the definition of existentialism was perfected by  Søren Kierkegaard (father of existentialism) who said that it is the individual that is soley responsible for giving meaning to their life by defeating existential obstacles. Wolf's input about using force as a means to defeat an existential obstacle (ie, angst, despair, anger, boredom, mental or physical osbstacles). I think that existentialism can blend in with notion of survival of the fittest, as it can give a source of legitimacy for surviving obstacles, a sense of purpose so to say.

It is essential that you and others differentiate existentialism from nihilism as they both are distinct philosophies.
It is only recently when F. Nietsche linked both in existential nihilism that both philosophies have been unfairly linked together; when in reality, their philosophical tenets are different.

"Existentialists believe that one can create value and meaning, whilst nihilists will deny this."

In regards to Wolf's comment, I draw connection to his comment with the works of Austin Cline's "Evolutionary Theory and Existentialist Philosophy". It links both existentialism with the theory of evolution. Something outside the box.

~

On a side note (outside the frame of this discussion), I must say that i do agree with you that aged wine is indeed exquisite. I do prefer a nice bottle of Pinot Noir, aged 6 years of more; or chenin blanc, aged 9 years or over. What is your favorite?





In adoration,


lorenzo,

the way your mind works is truly awesome.  you don’t only miss the mark, you’re also cross-eyed.

our topic is the context of dreaming.  you zero in on one aspect like existentialism to prove what?  that you know something that any idiot can easily cut and paste from internet sources?  don’t steer the discussion to that which you can cut and paste (these are obvious because the syntax and grammar are different from your own lapses).
 
dear lorenz, you even give wise advice to me and others “to differentiate between nihilism and existentialism”!  goodness gracious.  here’s my own advice:  if you’re going to be a doctor, better start disciplining the way you think or, heaven forbid, you might treat a patient for syphilis when in fact he only has hemorrhoids.

okay, here’s something for your “outside the box” (shoe box?  manny pacquiao box?), cut and pasted as well:

Most existentialists have argued that we aren't born with a fixed human nature which forces us to act in certain ways and prevents us from acting in other ways. Instead, what we usually see as our "natures" is actually a product of our choices â€" sometimes even choices we don't realize we are making.

Thus, Darwinian evolution provides some scientific credibility in more than one way to the existentialist position that humans make themselves and remake themselves during their struggle to survive in their day-to-day lives. Not all existentialists are necessarily "staunch Darwinians," however. Although it would be a rare existentialist who rejected the truth of evolutionary theory, there are those who don't regard it as having any real bearing on their philosophy.  (emphasis mine)


i’m sorry to say that even this claim is unimpressive as it is striking more as an affectation of the intellect, like muddling the waters to see the bottom or wearing high heels with the miniskirt to give the illusion of long legs.   besides, darwin’s theory remains that, a theory.

with all your religious posts here at tb, you now seem to lean on the side of agnosticism and atheism by calling on existentialism and nihilism.  how is that?

as for wine, my husband is the oenophile, not me.  to be honest, i hate his collection of vintage reds, some dom perignons, including a smattering of liquors like hennessys and single malt whiskies side by side with his cigars in humidors, the total cost of which to my simple mind is the cost of a car.  i must admit though that on rare occasions I go for simple good, old bailey’s and a mateus.   

awed at your mish-mash but glad that reading you brings out the nihilist in me,


#46243
Quote from: Lorenzo on May 13, 2010, 12:33:47 AM
On the contrary, it is all about reason. Hubag talks about his inability to reason or his disinclination in that, rather, defends the notion of dreams and dreaming, then again, that is his own personal choice, which is respectable by men such as I. There is nothing wrong with a dreamer, to dream is to live one's fantasy, as they say.

However, I merely implemented a medical addition; in that there are those who dream and never awake from their dreams; or perhaps i should change that to nightmare. Individuals who are schizophrenics or those who suffer from mental illness suffer from a loss of reality.

As for the inclusion of European Enlightenment, it merely illustrates my view that reason, is not a weakness, nor is it negative, rather has led to the development of societal advances, and undoubtedly contributed to the democratic pluralism that has taken hold of society at large (for the most part that is, he he). In regards to reason and choice; well, i must say that it is reason that allows us all to make an informed decision and choice in any matter.


Reason and truth both in the same playing field. My view. :)

“Reason is the slow and torturous method by which those who do not know the truth discover it”
Blaise Pascal


Cheers, Ms. Isles.


PS. Let not youth or lack of age bring prejudice to understanding. Love you!



and that, precisely, is what i mean by being off the mark, which makes me suspect that maybe, just maybe, you didn’t really get bai hubag’s drift.
 
you presumed hubag’s inability to reason, his disinclination to reason, and topped that pudding off with the cream of declaration that to dream is to live one’s fantasy, as if that is all there is to dreaming.

first, we’ve got to give it to hubag who might not be able to write that way if his reasoning were not acute.

second, dreaming in the context of hubag’s write-up is, in hyperbolic terms just so I could get my point across, in the league of world conquests.  conquerors dream of conquests and dream up and visualize strategies to win wars.  they don’t go to wars because of their brawns alone, much less because of their reason.  they go to wars because of their what-ifs.

to dream thus is also to invent, to devise.  great poets, philosophers, and scientists dreamed.  and changed the world.  no one can question their ability to reason beyond ordinary mortals.

the dreamers that bai hubag refers to actually have their reason intact.  this, one can derive by reading between his lines, which entails the reader to go beyond one’s self.  as for his statement about dreaming his life away, again, context, as it is obviously said tongue-in-cheek.      

after your presumptions (or should I say conclusions?) that hubag is far from reason, you go on to medical school to explain what extreme dreaming is and call on european enlightenment (because it was the age of reason?).  i as a reader felt like I bungee jumped without the ropes.

oh, martin luther’s “i have a dream…” is far from schizophrenic.  and we know his role in defining u.s. civil rights.

allow me please to go further, to your reply numbered 62 in this same thread.  you mention wolf’s post as existentialist, and then relate this to darwin’s theory of evolution.  what?  one has nothing to do with the other, so i was confused.  what, indeed, is existential about survival of the fittest when existentialism is all about denying that the universe has any built-in meaning or purpose and therefore individuals have to take responsibility in shaping their own destinies?  

what i’m trying to say here is that reading anything, like writing anything, needs contextualization and the proper grasp of concepts that one brandishes.  we have to go beyond the literal to be freed from the traps of the nuances of language.  

i have nothing against youth’s knowledge and understanding.  these are gifts to the world.  but there is such a thing as mental indigestion that only the passing of years can cure. even child musical prodigies practice themselves to greatness.   thankfully, the mistakes youth makes are corrected through the years.  often.
 
at 40, you may look back to when you were 20, and laugh.  knowledge needs to be placed in the context of life as it is lived.  and, like good wine, it takes time.  

love you too.

Bwahaha! You seem to be immersed in the study of the metaphysical poets, Ms. Isle. I wonder if you're familiar with George Herbert's The Temple: Sacred Poems and Private Ejaculations... ;D

i will get to that soon, bai hubs, silver boy, now that you've told me.  at the moment, i can settle for john hodgen:

He’s supposed to call his doctor, but for now he’s the May King with his own maypole.
He’s hallelujah. He’s glory hole. The world has more women than he can shake a stick
at. The world is his brickbat, no conscience to prick at, all of us Germans he can ich
liebe dich at. He’s Dick and Jane. He’s Citizen Kane. He’s Bob Dole.
He’s Peter the Great. He’s a tsar. He’s a clown car with an extra car.
Funiculì, Funiculà. He’s an organ donor. He works pro boner. He’s folderol.
He’s fiddlesticks. He’s the light left on at Motel 6. He’s free-for-alls.
He’s Viagra Falls. He’s bangers and mash. He’s balderdash. He’s a wanker.
He’s got his own anchor. He’s whack-a-doodle. King Canoodle. He’s a pirate, Long John
Silver, walking his own plank. He has science to thank. He’s in like Flynn. He’s Gunga Din,
holding his breath, cock of the walk through the valley of the shadow of death. He’s Icarus,
hickory dickerous, the mouse run up the clock. He’s shock and awe. He’s Arkansas.
He’s the package, the deal, the Good Housekeeping Seal. He’s Johnson & Johnson.
He’s a god now, the talk of the town. He’s got no place to go but down.

and the mind's power, or energy, can never be exhausted of its possibilities.  it's staggering  just to imagine the untapped and as yet unnamed energies around us, cosmic energies included.  and there's the rub in the layman's view.  if something can be explained, it's called science.  if not, it's witchcraft. 

electricity, a kind of energy (or power) tapped and used in our everyday lives in this our era was called magic by some and abhorred by others as witchcraft when it was first discovered.  today it is known and studied as science.

And when times get rough and friends just can't be found, Ms. Isle, like a bridge over troubled water lay you down and do a latinate Shakespeare:

When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And hiss out: "Populus me sibilat!"

Bwahaha! Sa Binisaya pa, "Bilatsyang ina!" ;D

sail on, silver boy, sail on boy, your time has come to shine, bai hubag.  i chose to err on the side of shakespeare's contemporary, john donne.

"Nobilibusque trahunt, a cincto corde, veneum, succis et gemmis, et qual generosa, mimistrant ars et natura instillant.

Whence we can take a better argument, a clearer demonstration, that all the greatness of this world is built upon opinion of others and hath in itself no real being nor power of subsistence, than from the heart of man?"

It was reason that brought light and democratic plurality that the great French political thinkers of the Great French Revolution such as Marat, Robespierre, Jacobins to exclaim: Liberté, égalité, fraternité!

The works of Voltaire, John Locke, Marat, Robespierre, Adams, Jefferson, Franklin etc were strengthened by the European Enlightenment, that brought Reason, Universality of Human Rights, Democracy, and Freedom from Monarchical Absolutism.

The great political thinkers claimed that revolution was reason; and claimed that the royal absolutists were unreasonable, living their dreams of aristocratic and oligarchic reverie, while the poor commoners in the Third Estate were left to pay taxes, burden the military cost, and submit themselves to absolutist control of the monarchy.

Human reason, which descends from Wisdom of the Most High and Intelligence that comes from the Holy Spirit, is what guides and directs the wise man to make a good Decision and allocate his resources to support that decision that he so fully believes in, in confidence and in Faith in Divine Understanding.

A wise decision leads to positive results; an unwise decision, will lead to doubts, and failure.

Hitler Dreamed of a Pure Third Reich ruled by Aryan Germans, and liquidated jews, homosexuals, slavs, communists, and dissenters, pro-democrats, and his decision lead to the purging of millions. His was a miserable unwise decision. That resulted in the collapse of the German Nation, and the deaths of millions.

There is a clear difference between wisdom, stupidity, dreams, fantasy, and lunacy.

Schizophrenic patients dream alot, and have lost contact with reality.
:)

Cheers.

do you really know what it is you talk about, lorenzo?  it seems to me as if you missed the mark of what bai hubag is trying to say, like mistaking the forest for the trees.

i can only credit your youth, though sometimes, trying too hard to impress brings forth the stirrings not of a revolution in the league of the french one but the loss of contact with reality.

Barang is nothing but witchcraft.

witchcraft, or black magic, is supposedly the tapping of the same energy that's used for healing (white magic) but used negatively.  a good analogy is a gun.  one can use it for defense (positive) or for robbery and murder (negative).

Question and Answer / Re: Is Magic Real Power ?
May 10, 2010, 01:48:22 AM
there are two kinds, as far as i understand it.

one, entertainment magic (sleight-of-hand and visual tricks, those conjurers and illusionists in the league of david copperfield)

two, real magic (the manipulation of energies around us for either positive or negative purposes).  this is the kind that could elicit more discussions and even heated debates.

meantime, what does the word magic really mean?  offhand we can equate it with something that's beyond our sense of what is humanly possible and explainable.  but here's encarta's simplest definition:  supposed supernatural power that makes impossible things happen.  note the noncommital adjective "supposed" in the definition.

i can say offhand that the majority are boholanos or have boholano roots, though not necessarily currently living in bohol.  we're everywhere, as this forum shows. 

as for non-boholanos, i can also say offhand that three of the most active belong to this group.  in fact, one isn't a filipino at all, if i'm not mistaken. 

i'm relatively new here myself, but i can tell you at this point that this forum is a carnival ride of ideas and opinions and a rainbow of personalities.  it strikes the right chord of one's humanness, and thus is inclusive and encompassing.

true.  that's why any candidate must not let his guard down.  those at the tail-end of surveys may work harder and reap the rewards.  what's more, voters can be unpredictable too. 

the latest i learned as of tonight is that everyone is on his own, parties be damned.  if it were a street fight, it's now a free-for-all.  this isn't going to be an election we can be proud of.

I have just obtained an info from the DENR. The truth is that what the mayor had told the DENR that they would prone the trees. Later the DENR was surprised upon inspection that the mayor had cut all the trees, young and old, for no reason at all. Later we know the mayor just wanted her new public market be seen by all. One acacia tree was spared from the heartless massacre because the mayor could no longer find a brave soul that she could hire to cut the trees. The one who cut the giant tree mysteriously died the day after he cut that century-old tree.

If you go to Guindulman, you'd find that no soul was happy with the heartless decision of the mayor.

i wish someone who got this 'windfall' could come out into the open to confirm this report.  as an observer who knew a bit about loay (from the last election with its terrible campaign and vote-buying), i could say this is believable. 

may imboy, i believe, is the youngest sister of lucio lim, the shipping magnate, soledad press, etc., whose wealth he supposedly singlehandedly brought to the family in ways that would scandalize the upright and the legal.  and he became friends with mike arroyo, even sitting onstage beside him during the latter's bohol visits.  (in what capacity, no one knows.)

may imboy is said to be a brat (and if i'm not mistaken, the imboy running for board member now is her husband who was lately a loay councilor?), and she was quoted to have told his older brother lucio (when she first ran for mayor of loay 3 years ago) that "siguroa gyod, manoy, nga modaog ko kay di gani maghikog gyod ko."  they spent millions, and now she's at it again.

there seems to be only 2 things with out elected officials (again, i take care to stress that there will always be exceptions):  they either seek public office and enrich themselves in the process, or they are already wealthy and run for elected posts for social legitimacy and ego trip, and get to protect and increase their ill-gotten wealth in the process.

unya, kun matagak ka gikan sa bintana sa bag-ong merkado, piskay pod?  sugot na lang kog matagakan ug kahoy (bisan hampasabol kay ngano god intawong moagi man ko ilawom sa kahoy kun nagbagyo) kay sa matagakan kog hollow block.

mas piskay ang guindulman unta kun kahibawo pa ang mayor motawag ug tree doctors.  kun kining mayora doctor ug tawo, naa pod bayay doctor ug kahoy bisan mas talagsaon ni sila kay sa doctor ug kabaw.  hapdos tuod paminawon bisan di ko taga-guindulman.  any old tree cut anywhere is humanity's shared irrevocable loss.  wa lang gyod tingaliy nakasulti niya nga mas guwapo tan-awon ang old trees kay sa bag-ong building.  unsa tuod ang iyang campaign slogan karon?  today the trees, tomorrow the necks?

Amen Manay! sexist and pathetic!

mura ra ning thread nagpasabut nga si Magdalena is still a prostitute! (who wasnt)

men customers perpetuate female prostitutes.  kun way mopalit, magsira baya ang tindahan.  morag law of supply and demand.  so where is the warning for men?

suffocation in 30 seconds tingali kay wa man tagad mabuhii ang gakos Miss Isles! (hi to you too dear- how are you?)

i could say then that it's the best way to go.  kana kun bana ang nagakos, dili ang silingan tungod sa katarantar.  (except for this sinusitis, am fine, thanks.  hope you are, too.  now, i'm searching for that pic of yours with your stepdaughters.  i got lost with all these threads, hahaha.)

Exchanging ideas with people with a  chip on their shoulder is always a colossal waste of time. Just because one's view differs from others doesn't necessarily make them wrong or beneath anybody. There's no excuse for condescension and personal attacks ...or of course, strategically boasting of what one's lifestyle is all about. Good on you .

As you said yourself, "your little knowledge".  Well, my choice not to associate or have anything to do with that part of the world is based on personal and business experiences. Not yours but mine. Your obvious love, devotion and pride are yours as well.

I've said all I have to say. You can twist my words all you want, there is no point in  participating in a humbug match in an anonymous forum. Good on you, more power to you and enjoy your bubble...or wherever you are.  8)

then say no more, chip.  (my shoulder won't accept you.)  who said anything about someone being wrong or beneath anyone?  i wasn't the one who called people "kagwang".  truly there's no point in your participation, even if you just did willingly, especially when you resort to accusations in your posts on top of your biases.  yes, i'm enjoying my bubble.  yours had just burst.
