HAS THE PHILIPPINES GOTTEN ANY BETTER AFTER 1986?

     Has my beloved country, the Philippines, gotten any better after the fall of Ferdinand Marcos in 1986?

     Do landlords, their kind, and their factotums still dominate Congress? Or have they morphed into political dynasties that rob with impunity the state coffers?

     Where have gone  the Edsa "heroes" and their ideals, "their new minds, new manners that, in pursuit of the sun, shall burn the night with liquid fire of high ambition?"

MY BEST-KEPT SECRET:

I love Yaya,
I love Alden,
I love Wally.

Narabaw laeng ti eellekan, Nababa laeng a paglinglingayan, low class, udong, mimmintok, tanga, langgong, awanan namnama a naipisok iti duduogan a kannawidan.

Our "it" in the teleserye narrative is not in the slapstick. "It" is somewhere, and taken as a whole--even outside of it. Deconstruct the semi-extemporaneous discourse in today's episode.

Hey, this Joey de Leon has just cut off my adulation of Yaya and ended my viewing of the noontime show. With his comment based on the box-office potential of the successful "Heneral Luna" film. If Yaya and Alden starred in the  film, it would have been an instant hit, according to Joey, who along with Vic Sotto and Richie D'Horsey (God bless his soul) gang raped Pepsi Paloma sometime in 1982. The trio escaped punishment when Tito Sotto, brother of Vic, was able to convince the bomba star to drop the rape charges against the trio.
