    Aye. This tacker has a golden road ahead, riches, Shabu, predators. It’s all, insert your deities plan and good news.

    Sorry Glendazumba, thanks for the effort, hard work, and uplifting stuff you do here. But your comment needs a whole lot of rethinking.

    Having spent a lot of time (and money) in Manila I can only assume that this guy must be one of the people that live on a cardboard box on the pavement. 1000php per day:greedy:

    Being new to driving in Dumaguete I accidently drove the wrong way on a street that was the right way in the day time. I thought the officer was going to shoot me. Cursing me and yelling that I don't respect the Philippines and other sh*t like that. I bit my tongue but what I really wanted to do was to teach him some respect for others.

    This is really bad news. OK, I know the Philippines quite well and my wife is from Dumaguete. I know in this country you get killed for many reasons. But I would not have tought in Dumaguete and not a radio broadcaster. But then again, I just moved in to Dumaguete recently after my retirement. It seems I'm underestimating the danger here of getting killed for being critical or saying something wrong that might be offensive to a Filipino. Slowly I understand what my wife is telling me all the time: Don't get drunk with a Filipino and don't have a heated discussion with them. Seems to be true. Never mind. Looks I have to stick to my foreign friends then.

    And here it is. Could almost be posted as Joke of the week but apparently it's true.
