YaayYy! Birthday ni Baby Matt!

Happy birthday, Baby Matt.

May you grow up to be a good and chiks-tirada boy!

ngek!  ipa pari nato ni si Baby Matt, Haze oi!

I try to be at peace with the Lord.  Every time I say or do something hurting to people, it bothers me no end that I am actually hurting God.  Having a burdened conscience is no way to live a life.  And when you do something good, think about the joy our Lord is feeling.

- Grazie

October 3 is Baby Matt's birthday.  He is now 2 years old!

Happy birthday, my lil boy!  I wish you all the blessings!  Lavooo very much!

Nalipong ko nasobraan ug tulog.Makaluspad diay na?

Aya san, I really miss you.  Somehow ga hope ko naa ka makatubag pa namo dire.

Sige lang kay duly compensated man ka with home cooked food sa imong bana.  Daw beh, okay na diay DD, Swaks?

Ayaw lang to pukawa Swaks kay mag baklay pa to ugma kay nahutdan na'g gasolina sa Georgia.  Bitaw oi, nag mourn pa to sya sa pagkawala ni Aya san in her own terms.

ddkit to Aya & Tiya Gracia

diuretic food man jud, maring!

Mao jud Jez kay kon mo ingon lang ko sa una ug Macar's Shop duol sa Ice Plant, mo lingiw lang mga tsolokoy!  Kinahanglan jud ug mo bungat na ka daan ug kantidad! hay naku!

Tita Birdie, good day to you!  Sibat sa ko.  Chat ta later.

I agree with you, Raquel.  I don't fly frequently but if I have to and PAL is an option, I will go for it.

Sis A, in due time we will be able to accept that Aya san has gone already but definitely she will always be in our midst especially in TB.  In the meantime, I think it is just okay to allow ourselves to mourn for our loss of a very dear, pleasant and wonderful lady that was Aya san.  Again, I am not saying this because she is gone now but because that's true. 

Thanks a lot, Manay Tess.  Yes, we can't pray enough especially when things are beyond our comprehension, we are left with one choice which is to surrender to His will.

Manay Tess, I wasn't surprised na when Aya san showed up in my dreams.  Sige ko'g ipadamgo ug mga kalag and yes, gapamisa ko didto sa Bohol pero karon pa ko'ng Sunday magpamisa for Aya san.  Akong Lolo, nagpadamgo kanunay especially to express message for his siblings na dili nko sinati kay Manila-based man sila.  Also my brother in law who also had untimely death, he shows up in my dreams from time to time to relay message to my sister and to inform me that his mag ina have problems. Before Aya san died, a relative of mine (Ate Mana) who died last year showed up in my dream.  She was happy and beautiful in my dream. When I mentioned about it to my elder sister, she told me that it was Ate Mana's birthday.  Kaluoy sa Ginoo dili man pod ko mahadlok kon ipadamgo ko'g mga kalag kay wala man pod ko hadluka sa mga kalag tawon.  Ayaw lang pod intawon.

Na unting na ni karon imbis na asenso, mo atras na hinuon ta. hehehe  Kinahanglan fearless jud unta ang mga tawo to report people in the government who accepts grease money.  This business of accepting money dali ra man unta ni masakpan if our government is dead set in catching these people pero unsaon man utro man pod.  Dapat both parties, ang gabayad ug ang gapabayad ang silutan.  Kinahanglan ra jud naay mangisog to properly enforce the law aron masumpa ning kalakiha ni. 

I agree with you guys na kining atong mga tricycle drivers, although not all, spoiled na kaayo.  Even way back then kadtong naa pa ko sa Tagbilaran, within city zone ra gud unta to didto sa Ice Plant further down Coca Cola building where my grandparents lived, dili mosugot mga tricycle drivers kon dili higher fare ang ibayad.  Syempre kon late at night na, wala na kay laing choice but to agree to their terms and at times igo2x ra jud ang money, maglakaw na lang jud tawon mi adto pauli.  Night school ko sa UB so by that time maka abot ko adto sa balay, ning pito na ang siren sa Coca Cola - meaning lampas na alas 10 sa gabii.  Imagine, bisan tua ra didto naglingkod sa likod sa driver, same lang gihapon gud bayad or kon bisan naa ka nag lingkod anang gamatoy na lingkoranan in front of the two passengers na very uncomfortable, same pa gihapon jud ang pamasahe. 

Thanks, Sir Felix for this info.  Amazing, naa na diay cable car diha.  Someday makabalik ra ko diha sa Digos kay for sure if makauli ko pohon, adto man jud ko sa Davao because Davao is so dear to me too. 

Ray, unsaon kaha pag sakto ug tug na binuntagay naman dayon ug duwa.  Naa koy mga kagupa na gikan sa work, tua dretso sa mahjongan.  Halos every week nights.  Sus pastilan!  Naa pod koy auntie sa una na ga mahjong sila sa ilang veranda.  Sunday morning nag panun na mga katawhan padulong sa simbahan unya sila tua ga karaw pa.  tsk tsk tsk

Thanks, Ms. hofelina or how do we want me to call you, please?

Embutido is not something I crave to eat but knowing how to make it is good because this is one known adapted Pinoy food and I know it's pleasing to our kababayans having it on the table during get-together with our Pinoy friends.  Thanks po!

Spain has new meaning to me now because that's one country Aya san yearned to go.  This may be a wishful thinking but just like our other friends here who wish to go to Spain to honor Aya san's dream, I also wish that someday I'll be able to go there.  For Aya san.

Amazing kaayo ang makita sa wall.  When Swakee sent this link to me, it was at the dead of night lastnight and seeing his face on the wall had kind of spooked me out.  Yes, miracles happen.  Unsa kaha ang message ni Padre Pio to us?

Sis A, you made me cry.  What I told you after your first post upon learning of Aya san's demise, I meant it from the deepest of my bereaving heart.  I have no doubt that Aya san is pleased reading your post now that somehow her demise brought you back to TB.  I can feel that she is anxious to post here and express her gratitude but she couldn't anymore.  I so believe that she is reading our posts jud.  Di ba, Aya san?

Tita, is there a way we can contact Momoko?

Tita, gidamgo pod nko sya.  She was watching us and she was in a parking lot behind the wheels tapos nag bandana sya to disguise her identity.  At that time, dihay big activity sa TB kay diha ba toy award na receive si Sis A.  Kumbaga, she was watching us from a distance.

Thank you so much, Haze, for this beautiful video that tells us a lot about our dear Aya san.  She may not be able to reply by posting here in TB otherwise we will all be spooked out but I am sure she is smiling and appreciating this video. 

Aya san, we miss and love you so much and TB is not the same anymore without you in our payag but we will count the time we had with you and those were good times - best times that we will hold dear in our hearts.  So long, my dear friend.

Thanks, Hofelina, for this recipe.  At least dili baboy ang meat, if that's any consolation.  Di ba pwede pod gina steam ang embutido instead na gi bake?

Mikey, thanks for sharing the pictures.  Lingaw kaayo mo tan-awon.  Chada kaayo ang birthday cake. 

I noticed naay Panera bag.  Nakasulay ug ganahan ka ba sa raisin bread sa Panera?  If you like raisin bread, try it kay to kami jud kaayo as in!

I belong to a family of gamblers so busa wala na lang jud ko ning learn ana but you are right na lingaw daw na na game. 

I kinda like the idea that Congressman Chatto made a surprise call to Mayor Lim and straightened out things. 

Si Momoko mao ba na si Karen, Tita Birdie?

You are special to me too, Tita Birdie Sol.  Thank you too for your friendship and for being there for Aya san.  I love you, Tita.

I wish I can hug you right now, Tita Birdie.

Kmusta pod nimo, Manong Lindy!  It's nice to have you back.

Precious, I am so sure the church will allow her to pray in her "filthy condition", as you say.  As to the church providing clean clothes, I think we as people and believers of Christ Jesus should do that since we are part of the church, Catholics or not.  The church is the people.  Here in America, I have seen more homeless than there in Bohol.  People in decent clothes begging and most of the time demanding money from passersby.  People with decent vehicles come to our weekly Feeding and they got to bring home food that can feed them for the rest of the week. It's just too bad we do not have enough people to donate resources to help our needy people.

I appreciate that you thought of giving clean clothes to this mother and son.  I am sure these people will appreciate you and may not be able to thank you enough, for sure they will thank God for sending you to them.  God bless you, Precious!

Yesterday afternoon, had just checked out who were online and I was surprised and happy to see that orchids was online, she was veiwing that posted thread by  Pare Lorenzo "Momma Ducks". So, i immediately login TB for a check...it was  really her account, so, I have to conclude could be her husband or kids who can access TB with her left PW. On that very short moment, I did believe that her early death was not real BUT......she is with our  creator  and it makes me relieve and accept that we all are just guests on earth.

Really, BOC?  Kinsa kaha to kay as far as I know, her kids do not speak much English or Visaya ug samot na iyang bana.

Hallo mga Ondoy!

Unsa man ang naka-boom sa Calape?

I wonder that too.  Maayo ning naay detalye aron pod ta ma update. 

Aya san, I am glad that you somehow told Tita Birdie that it's "organized" up there.  It makes me glad although for selfish reasons, I wish you are still with us.  I am missing you terribly but your death  reminded me again that life is so fragile.  We should appreciate more our friends and family before it's too late. 

Hello Precious.  No, I haven't met Benjie Oliva yet and so as Dan Lim or Aumentado, for that matter, and neither do I have the desire to talk to him.  It doesn't matter, anyway.   I have nothing against Oliva.  I am for people like the way how you described Oliva: from a humble family who studied hard to achieve and is an asset to the community and stuff like that.  All I am saying is that there are strong allegations about him therefore he should be investigated.  We can not allow another young leader to start the way he was alleged with.  Forgery is not a joke.  It's a damning thing to do which is reminiscent of the Jose Velarde case, though of course not in that degree.  We already have lots of crooks in the government, if you guys can do something about it, why not.

I can't believe you are asking us Boholanos to stand by him through thick and thin!  hehehe  Anyway, I always believe that TRUTH shall set one free.  If he didn't do as alleged, he will be free and will come out a better and stronger leader.  In the meantime, I think he will surely appreciate how good a friend you are to him. 

Thanks, Precious!

Forever you'll be in my heart, Aya san.  Someday I hope to meet your children and give them a tight hug and I hope I can do more for them. 

Haze, thank you so much for the videos as compilation of Aya's beautiful work.

Good bye Aya! May you rest in peace. I wrote an article for you at my blog, www.edulotion.blogspot.com

Goodbye...

Thank you for your kind words about Aya san in your blog, Phil. I will just leave my comments here.  She was truly a beautiful person inside and out.  Just like you, I haven't seen her in person but I know she was a very deep and beautiful human being.  It is so sad that she left us already but we shouldn't be because she is now in God's heavenly kingdom. 

My prayer, as all of us are praying that her children will find peace in their young hearts to accept this terrible loss of a loving and caring mother that was Aya.

God bless!

Grace

Bye, Aya san.  I still can't believe you are gone and you are not gonna reply to our messages anymore as you always do.

Amen.

Baking is the nickname Anda knows so well. Aya remembers that name of my childhood.

Grace, my grandfather passed away in 2002. I was the apple of his eyes among the apos. When I was a little boy, we walked every Sunday to church, which is 3 kilometers away from house.

My lola lives in Anda with Aya's auntie.

Mike, she told me na she would never say good bye dire sa TB as others did kay gusto nya daghan ma basahan iyang mga anak about her.  She added saka na daw kon mangapo na sya para naa na daw sya'y "history" makita sa mga anak nya.

I hardly slept lastnight.  I kept remembering my conversations with Aya san.  When I wake up this morning, I re-read my message archive.  I cried, smiled and laughed at how silly some of our topics were.  I can't help but share a bit of what she told me.

To "Baking", liwat daw ka sa imong Lolo na buotan kay isog man daw to imong Lola.  She said you will be fine ra sa imong mga trials karon. 

Amen.

Ray, she died yesterday.  Unconfirmed report that she had a stroke.  Yes, she was still able to post yesterday.

Aya san, I really miss you.

Good bye, Aya san. 

I support this, Mike.  Thanks.

And you actually did, Aya san.  Sakit kaayo na nawala ka na namo but I know you are in God's Kingdom.  You were truly a wonderful human being.  Our loss here on earth is another angel in God's Kingdom to help Him watch over us.  So long, my friend.

Ate Ging,

Please Ate Ging,

Please please please tell me what happened? I just got back home, and na kurat intawn ko.

No No No No. Not Ms. Orchids.


My heart..my heart is aching so much.

Lord God in Heaven, Have Mercy Lord!

I know, Dong, I am grieving so much I can almost taste the blood in my heart.  I can't believe this is happening.

We were told she had a stroke, Dong.  That's all we know.  Your Ate Hapon/ytesski called Tita Birdie earlier and I got to talk to her too but I didn't want to ask as much as I want to because she is in so much sorrow right now too.

Dong, she is gone, our dearest friend and caretaker of Tubag Bohol Aya san is gone.

I remember at times when there were some troubles here in TB, before I go to sleep, I would ask Aya san to keep an eye on some people especially when the other Admins are not online too.  And she did.  And now she is gone. 

Tita Lee, no problem at all. 

From Old Photos thread, Aya san and her three beautiful children.

mae_flor, di ko ka reply didto sa imong pm kay full daw imong inbox.

Mae_flor, ingon stroke but that's not confirmed yet.  Yeah, shocking jud ni kaayo sa atong tanan.  She was one very nice lady jud, a good friend to all of us here in TB.

She was so nice a lady, Manong Jose, not just because she is gone now but she really was.  Wala jud koy makasaway adto nya.  She was so pleasant a lady.

Aira, it's true na.  Tita Birdie aka Langgamtamsi informed me and also Mike's sister who is based in Anda also told him.  She is gone.  It's unbelievable.  I can't understand why but she is gone.

yesterday morning ang gi ingon but I checked she posted message pa man yesterday.  so so sad kaayo ning adlawa oi.

I can't believe I will ever get to say good bye to you like this, Aya san!  My heart is filled with so much sorrow that you left us this so soon and so sudden.  I will miss you very, very much!  You were such a good friend to me.  Forever you will be a part of my life.  So long and may you rest in peace, my dear Aya san!  I love you very much!

Please, somebody tell me this is not true. please, please, please!

A PM from Tita Birdie aka Langgamtamsi:

Dear Grazy,

Please let everone know that our beautiful friend aya passed away yesterday morning,It's so sad.Just couldn't do it myself, i am hurt pa she was my best friend, I can't believed she is gone. I love her , I will miss her forever.

Last night couldn't sleep thinking about aya, Her 3 little children without her is so sad ,growing up without their mother in their side.
She may rest in peace.
TitaSol

Sir Felix, what I know from readings is that Bohol comes from the word "Bo'ol", the place where Legaspi and Sikatuna had blood compact. 

The other thing I read (Lumin Tirol's doctoral dissertation was that Bo'ol is a name of a tree that used to grow in our province.  But my question is why name a province after a tree?  What was so special about the tree to deserve our province be named after it?

There's also one reading that says, Bohol is named after Boho, in English "hole" kay daghan daw caves sa atong province.  So my question is, what made them decide to add the letter "l" after Boho to make it Bohol?   

So Precious, what are these really looking for, love, sex or just any good time or all of the above?  Personally, I don't think it's wrong for anybody to search for love in Bohol - and I mean love.  That's an unspoken freedom of anybody to search for love anywhere they want.  If these foreigners find their lifetime friend or spouses in Bohol, it may be a better place because Boholanas are essentially loving and caring people. 

If, however these foreigners are looking for sex or somebody to play with while they are there vacationing in our province, that's their business already.  I am against prostitution as a means of livelihood.  I am against prostitution, period.  I used to believe that if our country has enough job for people to have decent work, we will not have prostitutes but I think I was wrong.  Here in California, there's a lot of prostitutes busted. (Remember the movie, Pretty Woman?)  It's not because there's no more options here but because it's a way to get easy money.  tsk, tsk, tsk

Macks, mao man ni ilang gina ingon na "true imitation Lacoste".

I think the first Ric Lo visited Bohol was for the wedding of Vice Mayor Toto Veloso.  Ric Lo was so ecstatic upon seeing Bohol and always say good things about Bohol from then on.  It's really nice of him to say all those about Bohol because he is a well respected journalist and people who haven't been to Bohol will get interested to see our province after reading his column. 

I haven't heard about the healing power of a Father Suarez.  I think it all boils down to FAITH.

A lot of people here justified na tungod na daw ni sa kalisud sa kinabuhi dire kay daghan nangawad-an ug balay ug trabaho but how can one have gun?  Dire, there's more beggars and homeless than there.  We have homeless people alright sa Manila but not as bad as here.  Every Wednesday, I serve

Actually, this news serves as a warning because it kind of irritates me before when a decent and macho looking people goes around asking for money at the bus or train station.  I have been seeing this tall, fit-looking man harassing people at the light rail station.  One time he asked me haughtily if I have a dollar.  I said, yes.  And he was like, give-it-to-me-then attitude. I told him, I wasn't giving it to him.  Nah, when I told my husband about it, ingnan lang ko ma shorten jud daw akong life if magsige daw ko ing-adto.  Ingon sya, just walk away and don't answer.

Well, there's a lot of facility here that provides for needy people.  I serve to one of the facilities here every Wednesday ug padalhan pa jud namo sila'g more than enough food to sustain the whole week.

Source:  Sacramento Bee

A woman panhandling in downtown Sacramento Monday pulled out a gun and shot a disabled man who refused to give her money, scattering a terrified crowd gathered at a busy bus stop, police said.

The victim, identified by family members as Frank Perez, 54, of Linda, Yuba County, was shot in the abdomen. He remained in critical condition at UC Davis Medical Center, a spokeswoman said Tuesday morning. Family members said he is expected to survive.

A short time after the shooting, police arrested Audrey Jackson, 47, who has no known address. She was spotted by a Regional Transit bus driver, who matched the radioed description of the shooter to a passenger in his bus and notified police.

Police boarded the bus at Riverside Boulevard and Broadway and she was arrested on a charge of suspicion of attempted homicide.

Relatives of Perez, who walks with a cane and has cerebral palsy, poured into the hospital lobby from all over Northern California on Monday night.

"Why would someone ask money from someone who is obviously disabled?" asked his younger brother, Adrian Perez. "This is really outrageous."

Frank Perez had been waiting for a bus on a bench near J and Sixth streets at about 3:30 p.m. when the woman approached him, said Sacramento Police Officer Konrad Von Schoech.

She asked for money and, when Perez refused, she shot him once in the abdomen, then took aim again but the gun wouldn't fire, according to Sgt. Stephen Lau.

Police had conflicting reports about whether the woman had approached other people in the area for money.

Witnesses said the shooter walked to Ninth Street and boarded a bus.

Adrian Perez, who lives in Natomas and is publisher of the Latino Journal, a bimonthly publication, said his older brother works for the state Water Resources Control Board, delivering office supplies.

He lived in Sacramento until a month ago when he moved to Linda to be near his mother who is recovering from surgery, relatives said. He caught the 3:30 p.m. Yuba-Sutter Transit every workday at the bus stop.

Family members described Frank Perez as a man of strong opinions and said he would certainly decline to fork over money to someone who appeared able-bodied.

The bold shooting terrified the late afternoon crowd gathered near the bus stop just feet from busy J Street. One of the two benches at the bus stop was bloodstained Monday evening as officers worked.

Fred Thomas of San Francisco was getting money from an ATM machine when he heard the gunfire. He turned to see about a dozen people scrambling and screaming.

"I was thinking this can't be real," he said. People were able to flag down a passing firetruck, Thomas said. Firefighters called an ambulance.

After the shooting, Joe Huddleston was walking along J Street when the suspect passed him, mumbling to herself, he said.

Adrian Perez, who said his brother hails from a large family, said: "I also pray for this woman because there is something obviously very wrong with her. You don't go out and shoot a total stranger when they don't give you money."
