IT CAN BE TOLD - Volunteers seeking refuge
and safety at San Beda College were gassed?!?!. As
many as twenty of the volunteers who were spending most of the
night and day at Mendiola and were brought to San Beda for safety
fainted when fellow volunteer Manny Amador took off his shoes
and went to sleep. The area around Amador suddenly became quiet.
Everyone seemed to be in a comatose state. Volunteer doctors
and chemists later verified that indeed the shoeless guitarist
had literally said good night to the people around him. However,
when the stinky feet were brought to the Mendiola
gates of San Beda, the secret weapon had no apparent
effect on the Erap fanatics excpt to make them chew the hollow
blocks they would throw at riot police. Amador is not taking
any calls regarding this matter.
It is not true that while at Mendiola, our primary
line of defense was to wave our socks at the attacking forces.
5-8?
(PPC-PnM) Philippines - to regress another twenty years?
With El Shaddai, and various other shady groups aiding the PnM,
Erap may yet maintain his hold on the Senate. The Church and
El Shaddai. Clearly, Bishop Bacani has totally lost any hold
he may have had on Mike Velarde. It is quite obvious that the
Church cannot stop this preacher from wreaking political havoc
with the votes of his millions of minions. Velarde is under
investigation, which is another matter that should call our
attention to the type of relationship he has with the Catholic
Church. He undoubtedly needs Erap and his Senators to help his
case. But as he sinks deeper into scandal, the more one wonders
what Bacani was doing all this time. If he was indeed ministering
to Velarde, it may have been on Asset Management and not religion.
Also, why does it seem that without Velarde's millions, the
Church shall collapse? At least that seems to be the perception.
Many of the people at Edsa last month were from Velarde's group.
Many were seen clutching the gates of Malacanang. The Erap has
at least seven stooges already at the Senate. With an additional
eight, what future does this poor nation have? Now I see why
Rizal wanted to start a new country in some island. Between
the frailes and the politicos, there is no room to breathe.

Lucio
Tan daughter loses millions of pesos worth of software allegedly
"hacked" from her company - Thames
International, an international business school. Thames has thrown
a challenge to the proponents of the e-commerce law to recover
stolen study and course material. A visit to the Thames site on
the web seems to indicate that the school is a truly international
school where students get to study in different countries. It
would be quite interesting to see how the investigation is carried
out. What are the odds that this is an inside job. Maybe the "hacker"
they seek runs the 'geek' arm of the 'Martilyo' gang.
Maybe the owners of the school will get the feeling the Philippine
government has been getting for years. The difference being that
of being robbed to the tune of not just a few million pesos worth
of programs, but 26 BILLION worth of taxes.
The
last exercise at EDSA still amazes me to no end,
but some things still bother me, so I will lay them out and maybe
you can help me sort them out.
- Why did not the Cardinal Sin send out the priests and nuns to
minister and give solace to the people who gathered at EDSA? Instead
he sought to blast them over media about the damage they were
inflicting on his statue. Is not the value of a single human soul
more precious than a man-made statue?
- The Church retains a portion of the El Shaddai earnings for
itself. At this point, we have established that there were thousands
upon thousands of the El Shaddai Cult at that EDSA exercise. We
also are well aware that Bishop Bacani is the Church's assigned
control agent for the Velarde breakaway faction. Maybe the income
derived from the Shaddai group is so great that the Church allows
Velarde to get away with telling people to hold umbrellas upside
down and jump up and down while waving handkerchiefs in the air
in order to "attract prosperity".
- And finally, the most important question that bugs some members
of this list: Is Fr. Sonny Ramirez, Erap high priest, really the
twin brother of Lito Banayo aka Lyle the LIzard©, Erap propagandist.

want to talk poor? OK, let's talk poor. Say you want
the poor to believe you? Then treat the rich who break the law the
very same way you treat the poor who break the law. Special treatment.
The very term alone illustrates the double standard that is a giant
obstacle towards narrowing the gap between rich and poor. Why these
guys even get media attention after all they have done to hurt 75
million people speaks volumes of the double standard. The Filipino
is guilty of the forked-tongue, two-faced game. With money, one
can literally get away with murder. The snatcher who steals a cell
phone gets shot dead. Let's start with equality. We have nothing
to lose and it will give the Prez a real survey result. Guaranteed. |
Miriam
shows off her 8mm pistol. Earlier,
the self-confessed Lying Senator spoke of using her 8mm pistol to kill
anyone who entered her "space." To our knowledge the only
8mm I ever handled was a Vivitar© Super 8. Sure, it had a pistol
grip. But it shot 8mm film for home videos, not bullets. Last week,
she finally showed off her gun. This time, It was a 9mm auto; make unkown
as we couldn't really see it. But it was on display and it seemed like
she was saying that anyone who tried to arrest her would have to eat
lead. Today she recanted again and said that she would not use the gun
against anyone in the service of the government. Exactly what or whose
government she did not specify. But hey, she has been known to have
lied before.Bwahahahaha. PLDT.COM suggests Kevlar©. And a sniper
on a neighborhood rooftop can be quite persuasive, too.
Minutes from
a hearing:
24 April 2001 More comedy
from the best and the brightest; as only PLDT Telco can provide.
Yet again, the country's telecommunication
monopoly and self-proclaimed masters of convergence today failed to
meet the standards their advertisements speak so often about. They failed
to produce the correct length of telephone cable for the court hearing.
My guess is they needed more time to prepare - they only had a whole
month to splice five feet of telephone cord. The RTC at Sala 90 was
sounding a bit more irritated than usual as once again, the fourth time
actually (but hey, could be third or fifth--it happens so often we lose
count) that the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. failed to bring
some length of telephone wire for their online presentation to the court.
It seems almost impossible to think that this is the same company who
can carry out a task that takes some intelligence, like wiretapping
for instance, but maybe they didn't actually do the wiretapping (they
only supplied the lines?). No mistaking the funnyshadeofmaroon trucks
as they roll into the QC court parking lot and teams of techies swarm
into the courtroom to prepare to install their setup. Of course, they
will wait till court officially starts to begin setting up. No forward
planning for the country's most efficient and converged telco. Not half
an hour, or even 15 minutes ahead in preparation. They will wait for
the Judge to come in and then make the whole courtroom wait. When any
job begins like this you know it's gonna be fun and games once again
as soon as the problems that come with hastily-prepared projects start
to show. This time the Judge was seriously considering his options,
as they seemed to be literally mocking him. But hey, they are the PLDT
phone company, after all. They seem to "own" the right to
piss of any/all Filipinos. It's a cultural thing. It's like our lives
were meant to have this particular utility around to make us suffer,
to remind us of our days under the Spanish colonizers and the American
imperialists. They hold the key to your accessing the world via phone
communications and strut about like you owe them your life for it. Much
like Marcos when he lifted Martial Law. After kicking us in the teeth,
he broke our legs, and we were supposed to be grateful to him for doing
so. Duh, I say.
Today we finally heard the official reason for PLDT's failure to register
the dotcom - they had other, higher priorities. As their newly
promoted, (rewarded, whatever) expert
witness stated, they were too busy setting up
for the "rollout" and preparing for the "giant convergence"
whatchmacallit to be bothered with having to register a domain name.
That would have to wait till later. Much, much later was maybe what
they really meant, for it was not till years later that they suddenly
remembered that they wanted to register their dotcom. But they did not
forget to register their dotcomdotPH in 1996!!
And this was not even on the agenda as it was another fellow, some insurance
dude - Pollie de los Santos was his name if I recall right - who reported
to manny pangilinan about the pldt.com
website. Ah yes, I distinctly remember Pollie - the witness who swore
under oath that he had no business dealings with Pangilinan
Inc., et al.
So after all his ranting and raving on the witness stand it was our
turn to question him. And it turns out he sits on the board, no less,
of Bonifacio Land or one of those many companies they own. Oops!
He had this indescribable look on his face when defense lawyer Teddy
Cruz showed him the SEC papers with his name and shareholdings on it.
Let's see...... how red can a human face get? I wonder what the Philippine
Justice system has to say about people who lie on the witness stand?
Isn't that what Erap lawyer Serapio did? Hey, ain't he the guy in jail
now? Anyway, back to Pollie and his funny testimony. Pollie had earlier
also testified--under oath--that he had typed pldt.com and was amazed
kuno that he didn't find manny's photo there,
but instead saw a different pldt.com (the real one, as we like to call
it).

DTI-ITECC head totally ignores appeal, slams door on
Kaimo, the overweight, tired, and aging webmaster.
Despite Kaimo's
uncharacteristic call for help via the media, the DTI-ITECC-Legal Cluster
stood pat on it's two-week deadline for all complaints regarding the
dotPH issue. DTI ASEC Monsod failed to comment on the vital matter of
JJ Disini's dual role as counsel to his brother Joel,
who owns dotPH, the company in question, and as counsel to ITECC-Legal
Cluster Counsel, the body supposed to investigate the dotPH controversy.
Another point being raised by viewers who wrote this editor questions
how Ms. Janette Toral, a non-lawyer, can head the ITECC Legal
Cluster. All members of the ITECC-Legal were handpicked by Toral.
She has repeatedly defended her appointment of Disini as the official
legal advisor, and has been sidestepping any direct requests for her
to reevaluate this appointment for months.

Movie
banned for reflecting hardship in the Island Republic of Bananas?
Well, at least there were no banana cutter scenes shown.
Funny though that the church, which is responsible in a big way for
the gross overpopulation asked the Palace to shut down a movie that
could serve as a wake-up call to Filipinos on the hardships poverty
brings. Many of our countrymen are enjoined to have numerous offspring
yet are not capable of feeding them 3x a day. This movie bespeaks
the evils of our society. Who is to blame? Ask the men in robes. A
blow by blow (no pun intended) account on the movie's specs.

PLDT.Com seeks firing squad for Mad Cow hairdresser.
Is she using Manoling's wig or is that a cunning disguise?
That is the question posed daily in coffee shops around the Metropolis.
Police, NBI still searching for 8mm.
Miriam had claimed that she carries an 8mm pistol for
protection against well, just about everyone at this point. So far,
the investigators have only come up with Super 8, not a pistol, but
a video camera that dates back top the 70's. So please, nobody tell
her that the "gun" she thinks she is carrying is just a
video camera. We hope to reduce campaign violence so let's start with
this one.
Mad cow lady makes declaration; Morato applies for lease of the entire
Luneta Park for a day. In the light of a senatorial
candidate's willingness to get shot if a bet she made was lost, her
former adversary asked Manila City Hall for permission to sell tickets
to the execution. Mad cow lady hats, T-shirts and hairpieces are also
to be sold at the festival.
Amazon
forest denudation blamed on Philippine politicians. FORMER
Senator, EX-Cabinet Secretary, and ONE WEEK-termer as Executive Secretary
Angara--whose wife actually had riot police beat back Ambassadors
and respected Filipinos to prevent them from watching a play in the
Cultural Center ( HA! and you thought Cardinal Sin was a censor)--claimed
that the present campaign move of his political party, nicknamed STOP
HELL was actually giving jobs to Indonesians and Brazilians in the
logging industry, thereby improving foreign relations.
