STUCK ON YOU (Tube) II

Erap’s Birthday Bash

Former president Joseph Estrada’s very private birthday celebration last Saturday was attended only by his closest friends and family members. The party, organized by Jackie and Jude, went smoothly sans any unpleasant incident – mainly because JV Ejercito was not present to exchange dagger-filled looks with Jinggoy.

Spotted at Erap’s party were presidential contenders Senators Manny Villar, Loren Legarda, and Mar Roxas. Sen. Panfilo Lacson was conspicuously absent although his no-show was expected of someone who has near zero chance of getting the endorsement of the former president.

All news organizations were barred from covering the birthday party of former president Joseph Estrada last Saturday. But according to Philippine Daily Inquirer reporter Nancy C. Carvajal, “the Inquirer newspaper was allowed inside the party by one of Estrada’s allies.” Let’s just hope that the Inquirer won’t be forced to issue another erratum after the publication of Carvajal’s story.

Postscript to a “YouTubed’ Rectal Surgery

Officials of the VSMMC in Cebu said administrative charges will be slapped against three doctors and a nurse for allowing the videotaping of the rectal surgery on a gay man last January 3. In other words, VSMMC officials found the videotaping wrong but the “partying” (cheering and laughing) during the procedure was okay.

After conducting an investigation, officials of the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center (VSMMC) in Cebu will file administrative charges against three doctors and a nurse for allowing the videotaping of the rectal surgery on a gay man last January 3. People are asking why only four people are being charged when almost a dozen others joined the “party frenzy.” Hospital officials explained, “The others were gatecrashers.”

According to VSMMC’s website, one of the hospital’s specific objectives was to reduce the “patient’s length of stay from 5.79 to 5.5 days.” Now that the whole world knows how your doctors and nurses behave, consider that objective achieved.

“Danilo,” the gay man in the rectal surgery video said he only learned of the video clip on YouTube last April 11 after a barangay captain informed him about it. It was not immediately known how and why the barangay captain recognized the patient’s rectum.

The gay man in the rectal surgery video said he only learned that the video clip was already on YouTube after a barangay captain informed him about it last April 11. It was not immediately known why the barangay captain was watching “such stuff” on YouTube.

The gay man in the controversial rectal surgery video said he only learned that the video clip was on YouTube when a barangay captain informed him about it last April 11. In a related report immediately dismissed as irrelevant by the barangay captain… his wife has decided to cut his Internet connection.

Reporters from various news organizations couldn’t agree on the “stuff” removed from Danilo’s rectum. Some say it was a canister of perfume. Others believe it was a bottle of body spray while some claim it was deodorant or lotion. Reporters seem to agree on one thing though: it was big! No, not the object. The rectum.

Garbage Problem

Pedro Cuerpo, the Rodriguez, Rizal mayor who was suspended for illegally collecting fees from garbage haulers, threatened anew to ban Metro Manila garbage trucks from the town’s landfills… which is understandable because if you have someone like Cuerpo in your town, who needs garbage?

I Am Not Ellen Tordesillas

This is funny. I received a message (posted in my blog’s comment section) from a certain Gang (writer/performer Lourd Ernest De Veyra’s co-host on NU107’s Sunday talkshow). She was inviting me to guest on their program. But the message opened with the line: “Hello Ellen”

A baffled me emailed her back, and in jest, I said, “I’m not Ellen. I’m Oprah.” It turned out that somebody misinformed Gang that “The Professional Heckler” was Malaya columnist Ellen Tordesillas. I don’t have a beef with (the anti-Arroyo) Ms. Tordesillas but nope, hindi po ako ‘yon. Iginagalang po si Ms Tordesillas samantalang ako ay binabasa lang.

Have a great week ahead!
