The razzle-dazzle of Din-Din Baniqued, the legal chicken hawk of The Benjie, is blind on both eyes, no beak to bite and apparently no wings to fly on.
To levy real estate tax on utility poles which is hard to discern if they are real estate property, is not only foolhardy, callous but [...]

The water turning the turbines of the San Roque Dam passes through a tunnel with a surge saft. The surge saft may increase the volume of water drained into the Agro River and downstream without passing through the spillway.

Ms Castillo:
The insult is not to the 750,000 San Franciscan in general, just those voters who elect the nuts who run the city government. Can you deny any of the things that I cited? I think not. To go further, the San Francisco Giants or Fortyniners can’t even beat the Oakland A’s or [...]

Try your best first before giving out excuses. Lame excuses at that! Not enough beat cops you say? Be imaginative and just make it happen! Just collecting bets in [...]

I agree with you Mr Pontaoe, the drainage is the biggest problem, 1/2 hour of rain and roads are flooded along Caranglaan, Mayombo & Arellano Streets. The drainage along these streets is not big enough and there is the lack of maintenance. Most of these are clogged with mud and plastic garbage. [...]
