Sen. Francis Escudero has called on GMA to cut her foreign trips to save money. No, Chiz hasn’t urged GMA to just stay abroad forever.

Erap said he was just joking when he said he would run for Congress to block GMA’s desire to be Prime Minister. I hope he’s not joking again in denying the news.

So Erap was only joking when he said he would run for Congress. He said GMA must also be joking only.

One writer is mad. He was quoted as saying: “A lot of Pinoys must be hungry. They’re raising dogs for food.” Well, when we’re starving where do we go for help but our best friend.

Leftist militants pelted the LTA building of the Arroyos in Makati with rotten eggs. What good to the country do they hope to achieve by that rotten act?

ANAD partylist Rep. Jun Alcover is touring Mindanao to thank those who supported ANAD in the last election that made him congressman. Remember that it was not only the Cebuanos who voted for ANAD but the entire country.

Photojournalist Loy Jurado who is covering Congressman Alcover’s “Thank You Tour” says he had just found out the ANAD partylist congressman owns hectares and hectares of pineapple plantation in Bukidnon. “Daghang Cebuanos ang wa masayod niini,” says Loy. “And many Cebuanos also don’t know perhaps that the security guards of the Del Monte Pineapple Plantation are all from Alcover’s Kadre Security Agency,” Loy added.

University of Cebu owner Atty. Augusto “Gus” Go has virtually talked back to Hizzoner on the latter’s “war” against hospitals and schools that are “not paying taxes” to City Hall. Now Gus is on the spot. You don’t talk back to Hizzoner when he’s angry. Hehe!
* * *
You know, everytime Gus Go gets a splash in the media, I recall the moments when he stood up against a domineering PC general who tried to padlock City Hall at the height of a coup against President Cory Aquino. No one but no one dared to face off with the overbearing PC officer who arrogantly barged into CH, believing the Cory government had fallen, and ordered the seat of the City Government closed. No one but no one dared. Only Gus Go.
