LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles, Las Vegas Bureau) – It’s been almost a week since the Nobel Prize committee announced that this year’s prize for Literature has been awarded to American Bob Dylan, the first musician to garner such honor.

But the committee has yet to hear from 785-year-old Dylan, and has given up knocking on his door. He was last seen in public while in Las Vegas.

Well, mytstery solved.

Today, Hillary Clinton announced that she has invited Dylan as her guest during Wednesday’s third and final U.S. presidential debate, and the musician has accepted.

The Clinton campaign told The Adobo Chronicles that Dylan’s presence at the debate at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas is Hillary’s answer to Donald Trump’s earlier announcement that he would be bringing President Barack Obama’s half-brother to the event.

The strategy by both campaigns seems to revolve around which candidate will be intimidated by which debate guest.

It will be recalled that in the past debate, Clinton had Mark Cuban as guest while Trump had three women who had been linked to Bill Clinton via sex scandals.

While The Cat Is Away In China, The Mouse Is Also Away In Ecuador

Both out: Duterte in China, Robredo in Ecuador

BEIJING, China (The Adobo Chronicles, Tokyo Bureau) – Philippine Vice President Leni Robredo once told an audience in the U.S. that her only role is to wait for “something to happen to the president.”

So, if something did happen in the next few days to President Duterte while he is away on an official state visit to China, what is Robredo’s role? Nothing, because is also away, in Ecuador.

This is Robredo’s third foreign travel since she became VP.

One would think that if the president of a country is out on official business, the next in line to the presidency should stay put, just in case.

But as the saying goes, “while the cat is away, the mouse will play.”

While we are not saying Robredo is out playing (she’s attending a UN Habitat Conference), shouldn’t there be more travel coordination between the Offices of the President and VP so that, in the very worlds of Robredo — if anything happens to the president — then…

Trump Has Invited To The Debate A Female Dog Groped By The Clintons’ Labrador Retriever

LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles, Las Vegas Bureau) – We all know what Donald Trump did at the last presidential debate. He invited women who have had sexual relations with former President Bill Clinton to sit in the audience.

The third and final debate happens tomorrow in Las Vegas, and the Republican presidential candidate knows that the issue of the audio tape in which he bragged about kissing ang groping women will surely come up.

Well, being the genius that he is, Trump is very well prepared with his defense.

The Trump campaign told The Adobo Chronicles today that the Donald has invited a female terrier who was allegedly groped by the Clintons’ labrador retriever Buddy when the couple was still residing in the White House. The terrier will sit with Trump’s wife and children in the debate audience at the University of Nevada in Las Vegas.

(Buddy was killed in a car accident in 2002.)

Trump said that it was hypocritical of the Clintons to make an issue of his misogynistic statements when they themselves have remained silent about Buddy’s sexist and deplorable acts.

We can’t wait for the big drama to unfold in tomorrow’s debate!
