And one more thing, Professor Richard Dawkins should do one of those academic speaking tours at University of San Carlos in Cebu City.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13778830403404396438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52699127070342751.post-57967813896069702182010-04-25T07:39:22.750-07:002010-04-25T07:39:22.750-07:00Is "Minzhu" already standard pinyin? Any...Is "Minzhu" already standard pinyin? Anyway, given the relatively high I.Q.s of Filipino OCWs and OFWs, these absentee voters - given their large constituency base - could spell the end of nuisance candidates making them the ultimate swing voters in Philippine Presidential Elections this coming May 10, 2010.May Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04532345762556952361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52699127070342751.post-40293260631330501732010-04-23T08:07:40.692-07:002010-04-23T08:07:40.692-07:00Does this mean I should be ready to pull out my 32...Does this mean I should be ready to pull out my 32 Beretta Tomcat that I often use as a hair berret in my Yulia Tymoshenko-style hairdo everytime a Filipino seaman who recently did his Rn'R near the Gdansk shipyards everytime he looks at me funny? Anyway, Filipino OCWs and OFWs are about as interested as listening to that Chinese all girl punk band named Minzhu sing about the Tiananmen Square Massacre of June 4, 1989 - or was it about that song about being friends with His Holiness, The Fourteenth Dalai Lama of Tibet. But seriously, I just hope that the "cheat proof" electronic voting machines set up in various Phillipine Embassies around the world will provide inclusion of Filipino OCWs and OFWs in major elections. This could initiate a hope and change in Philippine politics that will end the career of those nuisance candidates. Or maybe I'll just listen to the girls of Minzhu sing about the Dalai Lama one more time.VaneSSahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903333054433459032noreply@blogger.com
