MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Filipinos are known to be a resilient people, even in sports. Many were disheartened by the defeat of Gilas Pilipinas against Dominican Republic in the opening match of the FIBA World Cup. The Pinoys lost with a final score of 87-81.
But Filipinos were stunned and euphoric when they watched a replay of the game today on PTV4. In the replay, it was the Philippine team that won the match with the same score of 87-81 in its favor!
QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – It’s been several strikes for TV host Kim Chiu. Her public comments have put her in hot water on several occasions (Remember her “Bawal Lumabas” during the height of the Covid pandemic in the Philippines?)
Now, the actress is again the subject of ridicule for her “vibrator” comment on a live episode of the noon-time show, “It’s Showtime.” (She was referring to a show contestant’s vibrato on his singing voice.)
Today, she issued a public apology to fans and critics alike. But to ensure that she does not commit any more booboos or grammatical errors, she engaged the services of AI (Artificial Intelligence) to compose her statement which we are publishing here in full:

“I sincerely apologize for my inappropriate comment on It’s Showtime. My words were thoughtless and disrespectful. I deeply regret any offense I’ve caused to the viewers and the show’s reputation. I take full responsibility for my mistake and will strive to be more mindful and considerate in the future.”
MIAMI, Florida (The Adobo Chronicles, Miami Bureau) – It’s history. Donald Trump is the first U.S. president (or former president) to be charged, arrested and taken a mug shot of.
But Trump is protesting. He says he’s being discriminated against.
In an exclusive interview with The Adobo Chronicles, Trump said, “Why should I have a mug shot when my fellow American and Nobel Laureate Maria Ressa doesn’t have one? That’s plain and simple discrimination.”
Unlike Ressa, Trump has not been convicted of any crime. Ressa has been criminally charged, arrested twice and convicted but there is no published mugshot of the Rappler CEO.
