Aling Gloria jokingly floated the possiblity of running for Congress in 2010. Her joke was promptly followed by a string of staccato-fashioned laughter reminiscent of the laughter one hears towards the end of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”.
I am relieved that I am not alone in qualifying what was floated with the adverb “jokingly”. Ms. Tordesillas used a verb. But just the same, I think, Aling Gloria’s words were meant to be a joke (now, that’s a noun).
It is very rare for a “president” to joke around in public. In Aling Gloria’s case, I can only remember two other jokes she made- one during the Rizal Day ceremonies of 2002, and the other sometime in July of 2005. (Okay, there were more, but enumerating them all here may take up more time than I had alloted for typing).
Jokes won’t be jokes without their usual punchlines.
The Rizal Day joke had its punchline revealed sometime in October of 2003. We all thought that we were in for a single-punchline joke. The grand punchline for the same joke, as we all know by now, was delivered one early June morning in 2004, when most of us were too sleepy to laugh. Well, up to now, that joke’s still on us.
The July 2005 joke, now more commonly known as the I-am-sorry-for-my-lapse-in-judgement joke had a punchline right before the twentieth EDSA I Anniversary. It became known as “Presidential” Proclamation 1017. I remember some personalities like Prof. Randy David and Congressman Crispin “Ka Bel” Beltran, who failed to “dig” the joke. They waited for the punchline, only to hear it while being dragged into police vans. Now, the atmosphere is abuzz again. Apparently, PP1017 was not the first and only punchline to that joke. Are we ready for the Human Security Quack of 2007 (that Orwellian newspeak again) yet ?
There was a joke delivered this morning, 19 July 2007. When are we going to figure the punchline/s out? What is/are the punchline/s?
Abangan ang susunod na kabanata…

We all know that after Pandakikay term expired, her license to kill will be expired and automatically revoked. We all know that she was lying when she said that she is running for Congress, she’s been marked as a pathetic liar. But, watch out mi suy companyeras con companyeros she will not let go the grip of her power. She has a last two seconds play to shoot the ball.
She will not run for tongress because that is a degrading demotion, technically she can run for Vice President. Ano,natunganga kayo! By hook or by crook she will win all the votes in Mindanao because of Bedol. Bedol is an expert when it comes to extradition of people and dead souls. He is an illegal human and soul trafficker from hell, Lucifer will give him that number of roasted souls.
Of course! A petition for restraining order will be filed by her opposition in the Supreme Court not to proclaim her as a VP. Hahahaha! 7-7 na naman ang justice decision.
Then, after 6 months in office her demolition team will go to work. She will travel to Singapore and break ties with her running mate which is the President. Street protest from Left, Right, front and back forward mach! Another Edsa. The President is ousted and he join Erap, they will play majong and pusoy while his plunder case is pending.Pandakikay become again the president.
Tiagong Akyat will really assassinate her and put the blame on Esperon because the "supot" did not have a cabinet secretary position.—-This is only Cocoy’s Pipe Dreams!

Maybe, you might find an interest to spend time on my brief story about an unfilled brain of Mr.OFW.
It goes like this;
Arman, was a tricycle driver in their undeveloped little barrio. At an early age he became an orphaned, his father died with tuberculosis. His mother a widow abandoned them and go with an ugly insurance salesman. Poor Arman need to take care his epileptic sister and he need to stop elementary grade schooling. Susan his childhood playmate neighbor oftentimes tend to the need of his handicapped sister while he is busy making a living fetching a regular customer in his side-car.
After some period of time he married Susan, who has a crush on him because he is handsome and according to the tsismis in the barrio he is an illegitimate child. His mother needed money that time to pay for a mortgage on her inherited small piece of land, The dirty old man councilor and become a mayor virginized his mother but, the mayor denied. But, if DNA proves it can have a positive result and the mayor will fail the lie detector test. His asthmatic dead father married his mother to save the family reputation in shame. He was a mayor’s bodyguard and also a wino.
Three months married and a good honeymoon, Arman decided to try his luck on being an OFW, although he encountered a lot of illegal recruiters, he was able to get a job in construction abroad as a mason. He remitted all his pay to Susan. Four years lapsed his contract expired and he need to go home for another renewal of visa and contract. He want to surprise his wife and his epileptic sister.
Susan was in the kitchen preparing for dinner for her and Arman's sister, because he want to surprise his loves, one he pass in batalan. A good happy reunion and a lot of tears running down on their cheeks. They joyfully enjoy the pinakbet .
Time for bed. Anyone can imagine after a long years of separation, something good will happen, a matador and a bull. Hehehhe! But, there was a problem. An equipment defect. Susan was on Tampax and she don’t want to spoil the white clean bed-sheet. Arman was disgust and asked his esposa what he’s gonna do with his loaded gun. His esposa calm him down, and she even volunteer her five little marias to polish Arman’s weapon on up and down stroke while they are talking on what to do. And they come up with a good plan. The plan is Susan agree that she will not complain if Arman will find a temporary shooting range until her equipment will stop from leaking.
Early in the morning soon the rooster start the “COOOK-KA-KA-OK. Arman get out in bed and get himself ready to find someone to shoot with his loaded ready to explode gun .He couldn’t control it no more. He tested the 2 stroke cycle engine of his parked tricycle if it will start on a first kick, It takes him more than ten times and he hear a “BROOM-BROOM- BROOM” Up in the town he goes that early. On his way he saw his elementary school classmate whom he has a childhood fling keep secret inside. They talk and finally Arman told Zeny his problem of his loaded gun and an equipment defect of his wife. Zeny told him that she is willing to help him fix the problem and she volunteer herself for the sake of long, long friendship. Arman asked her, But, where are we going to do the thing when no one is looking. Zeny said her parents has a vacant kamalig nearby which is a few kilometer away. Arman shift his motor gear in high speed and they went flying to reach the kamalig. They did the ritual in different style,doggy style,missionary style and even 69 until Arman exhausted and cooled his gun.
The only words come on Arman’s mouth is WOW now I am going home to my wife.Susan was in the front yard sweeping the dried leaves of mango tree and she saw Arman coming with there red tricycle.–Here come her husband and she can see a big wide smile on his face. She asked Him,–Did you find someone you are looking for? Arman answered, Oh! Yeah darling,I met Zeny on my way to town and she did it for me for 50 dollars!–Ah, What! You give Zeny 50 bucks? Yes, Darling I gave her 50 bucks.Zeny,yelled–Are you stupid giving that bitch 50 bucks,if I were you I won’t give her a dime to get even with her.Arman asked her, What’s wrong with her?Zeny replied, You know what darling, Every time her husband Oscar comes her,I gave him everything he wants for free and that is why I want to keep the bed-sheet clean always,and you you do it in kamalig.It is filty! Hehehehehehe! End of story.
