‘More Punch in the Philippines’
TYPHOON “Tisoy” weakens as it heads to the West Philippine Sea. I hope it will not be confronted by China for trespassing.
It’s not true that Raissa Robles will demonstrate choreography “with impact” at the Cultural Center of the Pilippines. I am sure that Ticket World Manila is relieved of an expected zero sale. Seriously, she should know by now that Apl.de.Ap was born in the district of Sapang Bato in Angeles City, Pampanga. He is of Afro-Filipino descent and part of the famous hip hop group, the Black Eyed Peas. With her recent remarks about the Southeast Asian Games, he should confront her and ask for her citizenship instead.
No truth to the rumor that Vice President Maria Leonor “Leni” Robredo would have a cameo role in “Frozen 2.”
The way it is going, future generations will not be able to tell the difference between truth and lies. More scary if they will respond by saying “Who cares?”
Sony Corp.’ s PlayStation is being recognized by Guinness World Records as the world’s bestselling home video game console, having sold 450.19 million units over 25 years. I am quite sure that a former Philippine president is contributory to its success.

Richard “Dick” Gordon thanked Angel Locsin for volunteering in relief operations and providing assistance when she personally went to PRC’s Davao del Sur chapter to donate and volunteer in the distribution of relief goods and hygiene kits for the quake-hit families.

One pet peeve of mine is parents oblivious of their children causing discomfort in a place of worship, letting them run or play around and causing disturbance. It’s the same on planes and other public places. One may argue that kids are kids and extra tolerance is expected, but instilling discipline at such an early age is a must. I remember our parents always reminding us to behave when visiting abodes of relatives and friends. Ethics and shame should be taught at an early stage. Sometimes poorer families exhibit such virtuous traits compared to the wealthy ones.
When we were young, we used to play marbles. We now wonder, and try to understand, why politicians lose them when using taxpayer’s money.

That song “Manila” by the Hotdog actually has a good message to Filipinos in its lyrics — “Promise me you’ll never let go.” Quote of the week: “Judges are like umpires. Umpires don’t make the rules. They apply them. The role of an umpire and a judge is critical. They make sure everybody plays by the rules. But it is a limited role. Nobody ever went to a ballgame to see the umpire.” — John Roberts
Good work, good deeds and good faith to all.
