Man runs amuck after being called "tiguwang"

OLD MAN HE? A 68-year-old man went wild in the public market of a northern town after some youngsters teased him: "Tiguwang na si manoy wa na ata." The old man - okay senior citizen - chased the youths with a steel pipe but the teasers were just too fast for him to catch up. So he gave vent to his anger by beating up a goat that was displayed for sale. "Suko gyud kaayo ko," he said later. "Ila kong ginganlan tiguwang atubangan sa mga dalaga."

PSYCHO WAR. An fiftyish electrical engineer said as he boarded a jeepney bound for Mandaue City: "Ay salamat kay duna tay kauban nga secret marshal." He later explained that he always say that when boarding a jeepney so as to warn holduppers, should there be any in the PUJ. "Monay gitawag ko nga psycho war batok sa holduppers," the man said.
