No to Erap's Pardon

Fuck. Erap does not deserve the presidential pardon. Is it necessary? For GMA, politically, no! Unless she wants to stay in office forever. Such a disgrace.

China flies to the moon

It's all over the news here. It's quite incredible. Who would've known? But it's inevitable, really. China is unstoppable, primed to conquer not only the world, but the universe. Be afraid, be very very afraid.

China-Bound

The Philippine delegation to the 10th China Senior Study and Research Program for International Young Cadres left Manila to Guangzhou via Southern China Airlines. At Guangzhou, we met with the rest of the delegation. We flew to Nanning where we were greeted by teachers from the China-Guangxi International Youth Exchange Institute.

Numb

Sketching calms me, it’s such an amnesiac, I wish, sometimes, its effects would last a little longer.

No to Erap Pardon!

This is absurd and quite unacceptable really.

WTF! He’s not yet even imprisoned ‘proper’ and now he gets to go scott-free! Rubbish!

Number 1: The judicial process has not been fully exhausted. There’s still the motion for reconsideration. And then there’s always the Supreme Court. Any talk of pardon is premature. Moot and crapademic.

Number 2: Talk of destabilization from the Erap camp is completely paranoiac! There’s no Estrada camp anymore. It will morph into the camp of whoever’s running this time around come 2010.

Number 3: Talk of destabilization from anyone, anyone at all at this time (where everybody’s preparing for 2010, it’s just a matter of tolerating GMA until then) runs along the ‘wag the dog’ crap. A diversion really from ZTE, et al.

Number 4: Lastly, a pardon for Estrada is simply wrong and a slap to the dignity (or what remains of it) of all Filipino. He is hands-down guilty (like most of people in power). He should remain so.

(Mangabroad na ta ani! Balik ta after 2010! Syeet!)

The ComicRelief new-comer in PDI is not exactly a comic relief.

It’s a love story, Carlo J. Caparas’ diario novela “To Love and to hold”.

And it’s too big. It spans a quarter of the page. And 7 comic strips were actually annihilated to give way to this Pinoy Comics returnee. Among them, “Divine Comedy”, which, I actually liked.

Mingaw na man nuon ang akong paboriting section sa PDI.

The guilty Erap now, the guilty Erap then

Erap has been guilty even before the SandiganBayan verdict was pronounced today. Did we not wave those big ‘GUILTY’ streamers during the height of EDSA 2? But now, 6 years after and finally a guilty court ruling? Where have all the rage and the furor gone?

We’ve mellowed down, I guess. And besides, these people, Erap’s buddies? Total sell-outs.


I would like to remember Edsa II. But then I get reminded that it was then that Gloria took over the reins of this nation and look where we are now.

I cheered while watching the WTO Twin Towers crumble.

I think I did. I may have even exclaimed: “Yes! World War 3!” (I didn’t know FoxNews existed ’til then.)

Fast forward 6 years, still no world war. But the world has changed forever. Thanks to the US and her beloved GW Bush, the world has become one unending freaky fright show. To think that that over-bloated event only killed about 3,000 people while on that day, elsewhere in the globe, 20,000++ women and children died of hunger.



And what about the points raised by Michael Moore in Fahrenheit 9/11? Very valid. I could even believe the theories of conspiracy theorists.

I think the world is even far better without the twin towers. Less carbon emission.
