If China wants part of the Philippines, they must take it all, lock, stock and both barrels. You can't pick and choose. You think the shoal is yours? Well Zambales goes with it along with Dick Gordon and the rest of us. Oh, you want to pick and choose, some of the land but not any of the people that go with it? Ano sinesuerte sila?

A man walking in a beach finds a genie in a bottle who offered him three wishes. First, he asks for a sports car. Suddenly, a Ferrari appears before him. Next, he asks for a big house. Suddenly, heâs sitting near an Olympic-size swimming pool inside a huge mansion with 50 bedrooms. Finally, he asks to be made irresistible to women. Suddenly, he turns into a box of pricey, luxury chocolates. Whatâs the meaning of this? Simply, a request could be misunderstood.

'Who is going to tell the Chinese how ridiculous their claims are?' asks the voiceover in an animated video commentary produced by Taiwan's tabloid sensation Next Media Animation. A hammer-wielding PNoy and a US-backed Pacman may be a tag team to match China's 'bully panda'.

US President Barack Obama has backed the legalization of same-sex marriage. Can such a notion progress in the Philippines? It will be a tough uphill battle even though practically all Filipino families have at least one member who is an 'l', 'g', 'b', or 't'. Why many Filipinos will deprive their own family the right to live free of discrimination is beyond me.
