Let the campaign begin, stop 'Pacman' from running

It's showtime. 'Tis the season to start campaining. Opposition wasted no time and toured Manila (GMA News)

Francis 'Chiz' Escudero gets my vote.

Election fever heating up the states and here in my county it's becoming raging bull of gimmicks, ads, attention grabbing posters and paid advertising of officials running for position to govern. Our national elections is just several months away (May 11) and we're voting for Senators and Congressmen and other local officials. I don't know if I'm gonna see candidates in their sorties and such, I hardly go out anyway. I don't think they will roam around and shake hands and kiss babies in a nice neighborhood. They always go to places where the masses are. However, I keep seeing t.v ads of candidates running mostly for Senators. Political ads proliferating the idiot box. Some are so corny. They, the candidates chose to air their few minutes of ads without much substance.....just stupid ass cornball music and crap.

The one from Ping Lacson was a bit alright. Something about H.O.P.E. I only saw once (earlier) I forgot what the campaign ad was all about. The rest was funny ha ha hah funny. I suspect I'll see more ads. 'Tis the season of election.

Gah. My mind ain't working right now. I must be sleepy. It's early morning.

So Manny Paquiao is really running for.... ah, shit. I forgot what he's running for. Congressman. I think. Or governor. I'm not sure now but whatever position it is.... STOP! whats wrong with that boxer?! Manny should just stick to boxing! No ifs no buts. I am pretty sure many of his politician friends convinced him to run for a seat as house representative. YIKES! of course there's nothing wrong with helping the people and the 'Pacman' has good heart and genuine desire to help his constituent but please, majority of Filipinos thinks he can contribute and help by just sticking it out with boxing.

Manny Paquiao should heed to the request of many. Leave politics and just get on with boxing and do your countrymen proud once more.

Freedom, Justice and theTruth

Maybe it's because I saw an earlier film about injustice to the 4 Irish men falsely accused of being IRA terrorist and languished in jail for 15 years (yes it only a film but it's a true to life account of locking innocent people in jail), but I do firmly believed and I have and I know and it is fact that there are really innocent suspects serving life imprisonment or even death penalty.

Lawyers and those advocating freedom of the innocent need to pursue the case. Keep digging, keep reading, keep going over and over and as many times as possible with all the evidence. You know there's bound to be inconsistencies. There might be loopholes. If one has to prove the innocence of wrongly accused convicted person, keep on going. Decades spent in prison for a crime an innocent person didn't commit should get justice

I didn't even kick the ball

What wacky dream I had yesterday. Imagine David Beckham as main character. Weirdness. Not that it's bad but.. just funny, I guess.

And so the dreamland state that I was in.. the soccer star was hiding (or not) here in Manila and trespassed inside our house because in the dream, he wanted to be left alone. We became friends or something -- 'cos we were holding fingers. Ah yes, not hands but fingers. It's a dream ya know! Neighbors kept looking at our house and eventually recognised him and then the dream shifted to somebody missing or injured and he was the suspect and I was hiding him. And then I woke up and that's that. End of weirdnesss dream.

And I was gonna blog bout election and politics. Ha.
