C’est vrai.
Where Philippine politics is concerned I try not to keep up with the news because it’s all Theory of Eternal Recurrence to me, or as Ate Vi put it, “Been there, been that”. However I must admit that the term “Con-Ass” (constituent assembly) brings joy to my vestigial heart because in French conasse means “stupid bitch”. So when our esteemed politicians utter the syllables “Con-Ass”, I hear them calling each other “stupid bitch” with bad accents.

Hola! greetings from Havana, Jes. I am a huge fan of your humorous self-deprecating literary style, refreshing to read your observations on life, esp. in this boring backwater post. If only I knew you run a very updated blogsite these days. I tried to collect all 7 Twisted (9 na pala?) but i was broke back then, considering manila’s salary rates. Now I’m arm-twisting a friend to send me all your books via pouch. If you want to come to Havana anytime, just call up the diplo. mission & look for la Srta.
Oye, Garbriel garcia Marquez is here these days, his best bud is sick. Interesting times.
