Old fashioned daddy. A first year college coed told friends in their neighborhood she did not agree with her father’s stand on the Halili-Kho scandal. Her father had said this scandal wouldn’t have happened had the woman kept her dignity as a respectable woman intact. “Old fashioned kaayo akong Erpat,” she told friends. “Wa na ron dignified nga babaye oy.” The Ear learned that this young woman is three-month pregnant and the father of the child in her womb could not as yet be ascertained.
Grandstanding. A Catholic lay minister told The Ear that in his opinion this Senate investigation of the Halili-Kho sex scandal is a “venue for grandstanding” for the senators investigating the case. He said to The Ear: “Pila pusta mo, zero lang gihapon ang maangkon niining maong imbestigasyon.”
