MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It takes a national plebiscite to amend the Philippine Constitution, but apparently, it only takes one clueless Senator to revise history — like naming the country’s National Heroes.
In a single tweet on Araw ng mga Bayani (National Heroes Day), Bam Aquino revised the list of National Heroes by adding his uncle Ninoy — and quite prominently.
While Bam’s cousin Kris must be very happy about this, Filipinos were BUMmed.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Fresh from her much-publicized proposal to declare August 16 as Kian Lloyd Delos Santos Day, Senator Risa Hontiveros has yet another brilliant legislative suggestion.
(Delos Santos was killed in anti-illegal drugs operation by Caloocan police a year ago.)
Hontiveros wants August 21 declared as ‘Marcial Bonifacio Day,’ to commemorate the assassination of Ninoy Aquino.
The lady Senator told The Adobo Chronicles that all our laws should accurately reflect history. “When Ninoy was killed in 1983, he held a passport bearing the name Marcial Bonifacio, so any hero’s tribute should be based on fact.”
SILICON VALLEY, California (The Adobo Chronicles, San Jose Bureau) – After many years of debate, experts have finally confirmed that the computer is not a 20th Century Invention.
A joint statement was issued today signed by top technical and religious experts, saying that Apple, Microsoft and other computer pioneers did not invent the computer.
They added:
”Adam and Eve had an Apple in Paradise, and Moses had a tablet — in fact, two tablets. Even iCloud was God’s invention and He communicated with his Chosen People wirelessly.”
