I promised this scandal video to my overseas friends whose appetites for scandals were whetted by the DVDs at the mini-reunion. I am sorry there is no Kentucky Fried Chicken video scandal between Colonel Sanders and a chicken. There is no truth to the rumor that the Baliuag scandal starred a pig and a chicken. The chicken had pride, ayaw niyang mababoy.
There is also no sex scandal between Max's and Goldilocks shot by Andok in a Tropical Hut.

How Capitalism works... - Will it work in Manila?
This is from my high school yahoogroup. Thanks Icky.
====================================
It is the month of August, on the shores of the Black Sea. It is raining, and the little town looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.
Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town.
He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 Euro note on the reception counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one.
The hotel proprietor takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the butcher.
The Butcher takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the pig grower.
The pig grower takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the supplier of his feed and fuel.
The supplier of feed and fuel takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the town's prostitute that in these hard times, gave her "services" on credit.
The hooker runs to the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 Euro note to the hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that she rented when she brought her clients there.
The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 Euro note back on the counter so that the rich tourist will not suspect anything.
At that moment, the rich tourist comes down after inspecting the rooms, and takes his 100 Euro note, after saying that he did not like any of the rooms, and leaves town.
No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now without debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism..
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the United States Government is doing business today.====================================
Will this work in Manila? I don't think so. Manila prostitutes are seguristas. They want cash up front. For this to work in Manila, we have to legislate that the girls give 'services' on credit.

Ironies: son of senator also has sex video, medical team was source of swine flu?
Doctors are puzzled over the cases of swine flu infections in a remote barangay in Nueva Ecija. They say no one among the victims came from abroad. They cannot yet determine the missing link even as 5% of the population is now infected. The irony of it all is that a possible source of infection is the foreign medical mission that treated the local folks at the end of last month. What an irony! A medical mission causing this medical trouble.
In another development, salacious pictures of a local sexy actress began circulating in the Internet last week. Clearly, the pictures were screen caps from a sex video. The sexy actress is shown in sexy poses in the series of photos. She was shown spraying what looked like whipped cream on her genitals and mammaries. She was shown giving a fallacious job. The irony here is that the guy, not directly shown in the pictures, is said to be the son of a senator crusading against sex videos. If this is true, will the good senator lambast his son and protect the daughter of the tailor from a Hawaiian island?

Deserving and undeserving
Gasol has toughened up a lot since last year's debacle against Garnet. And Howard softened up, perhaps the previous series' exposed him. Perhaps the law of averages that was absent against the Cavs caught up with the Magic. Lewis and Terkoglu can't pull out rabbits from their hats now.
In a similar vein, in the PBA, Rain Or Shine says TY to TY Tang for the ala-Horry and Fisher 3pt shot that gave them the deserving win over the deserving-to-lose Purefoods. When you bench your best and highest paid player, you immediately lose at least 25% of your productivity. When you do that for the last 3 quarters, you do not deserve to win.
The cut clearly bothered Cotto. But if he fights like that against Pacquiao, he does not deserve to win.

Blasts from the past still ring true in the present
Some people contend that the Philippines has declared independence not just once but six times dating from Bonifacio in 1895 up to Roxas in 1946. It is actually more if we add to that the freedom regained from the people power revolt in 1986. But what do we have to show for it?
Ang sambayanan ay hindi pa rin malaya sa kahirapan. Binanggit ni Pat Sto. Tomas sa kanyang onlayn kolum ang pagkapanalo ng maikling pelikulang "Chicken a la Carte" sa isang kompetisyon. Bagama't sa simula pa lamang ng pelikula ay tila alam ko na ang direksyon ng pelikula ay hindi ko pa rin mapigilang maantig ng pinupunto ng direktor.
Nagkataon din na isang araw matapos ang pagdiriwang ng araw ng kalayaan ay nagkita-kita muli kami ng ilang kamg-aral mula sa mababang paaralan. Nakalulungkot isipin na sa kabila ng ilang dekadang hindi pagkikita, ang mga kaganapan na bumabalot sa bansa ay katulad pa rin ng dati. Kaya naman may kabuluhan pa rin ang mga awit na unang narinig hindi matagal makaraan ang aming pagtatapos.
Kaya narito ang pelikulang nabanggit ni Pat Sto. Tomas at narito rin ang dalawang awit mula sa Banyuhay. Patunay ito na hindi pa tayo umuusad at malayo pa ang ating gagapangin kung hindi tatyo tatayo ngayon.
