Hay Pilipinas

Yeah I figured it was only a matter of time before someone did it: look what I got in the mailbox - the Hello Garci Ringtone. Pinoy nga naman.

Frankly when I heard someone mention the Garci Tape, I really thought it was about her.

And the man who has lived with an ironic name all his professional life, Jaime Cardinal Sin, passed away Tuesday.

Sassy

Re: Garci ringtones. I don’t know if it’s an age thing, Mark… personally, i find it really juvenile.

Oh well Sassy, people thought the Erap jokes were juvenile too. Remember that Pinoys have a long history of satirizing and parodying our leaders, beginning with Marcelo H Del Pilar and the Propagandista. I guess we make do with the technology at hand.

Some of my -- and the readers' -- favorite posts.

Ultraelectromagnetic Jam: The Music of the Eraserheads - Reader fave, maybe because they were expecting mp3 downloads.
Just FOB-ulous - Still FOBulous!
Jose Rizal and Jack the Ripper - Further proof how people can misconstrue what you've written to suit their own purpose.
It's Called Sarcasm - Still some people think I was serious.
3 for 2003 - Sex sells. Contains adult language and images, not necessarily by mature posters.
The Press Release is in the Mail - Post a press release to help a friend, have complete strangers ask you to do their homework. Check out the comments section.
