Filipinos Enjoy An Extra Day In Leap Year 2016

imageMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – People around the world get to enjoy an extra day this year, a leap year. It happens once every four years when the month of February has a 29th day. Filipinos, however, get not one but two additional days this year. There is a February 30th in the Pinoy (slang for Filipino) calendar.

To celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon, SM, the largest shopping mall chain in the Philippines, has launched a special discount sale in all its oulets across the country.

Filipinos love to shop and are always on the lookout for bargains, so the malls and supermalls are expected to be packed with shoppers today, February 30. It also happens to be SM’s 30th anniversary.

 

 

 

HOLLYWOOD WEIGHS IN ON DONALD TRUMP’S PRESIDENTIAL BID

cherHOLLYWOOD, California (The Adobo Chronicles®) – On her Twitter account today, singer Cher said that if Donald Trump were elected president of the United States, she would move to Jupiter.

Like Cher, many other Hollywood celebrities weighed in on the recent announcement by the business mogul that he was running for president in 2016.  Some were showing him love while others have threatened to alter their image or lifestyle.

  • Justin Bieber – a fan of The Donald — will renounce his Canadian citizenship and become a full-fledged American
  • Kim Kardashian will go full frontal on the cover of Variety magazine
  • Zac Efron will shave his head, permanently
  • Caitlyn Jenner will transition back to being a man
  • Neil Patrick Harris will undergo gay conversion therapy in Texas
  • Emma Stone, star of the film, “Aloha,” will join the Hawaiian Sovereignty Movement
  • Meryl Streep will donate all her Oscar trophies to the Smithsonian National Museum
  • Steven Spielberg  will direct a new animation movie titled “Donald Duck Comes to Washington.”

Seeing as how Hollywood greatly influences politics, there is some talk that in a Trump presidency, the South Lawn of the White House would be renamed Jurrasic Park while the United Nations Headquarters in New York would be renamed Jurrasic World.

In addition Cirque du Soleil and the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus will permanently close shop since there would be enough circus going on in the White House.
