I don't know if there was a management/organizer issue kasi first Translacion with Fr Jade as Parish priest. I was expecting this mayhem last year 2025 with the first major translacion after pandemic, but it was fast and well organized. Fr Jun Sescon (now bishop was the Parish priest) It's no wonder he was promoted to bishop in less than 2 yrs as Parish priest at Quiapo.
    It was so long, that they tried to call for a respite at the San Sebastian church during the "dungaw", but the people thought that the andas would be garaged inside so they yanked the andas and proceeded back to Quiapo.

    Marami pa rin kasi nagpipilit na sumampa/humawak. Pati yung lubid, kahit may opisiyal na tagahatak na, may nakikisali rin kaya tumatagal.

    i have been mulling this idea for years now,
    "why nor organize the folk into puller groups? each group get to pull the carroza a certain distance, then replaced by another group for the next distance...

    I think that is what they are doing now doc. May groups pa to shore up the sides for crowd control. Pero sadyang gusto yata ng deboto nila magulo.

    The statistics of narcotics users in DOH-DTRC facilities, na HS graduate at may negosyo (whatever business it may be), may monthly income na P13K, yung War on Drugs, is mostly exclusive to those who cannot afford rehabilitation, has a hard time finding an office job (pakikisama), and has committed a crime.

    Superlambanana



    Superlambanana is a bright yellow sculpture in Liverpool, England. Designed by Japanese artist Taro Chiezo and intended to be a cross between a banana and a lamb, it weighs almost 8 tonnes (8,000 kilograms) and stands 5.2 metres (17 feet) tall. It is located outside the Avril Robarts Library on Tithebarn Street, having previously stood on Wapping Dock.
    A commentary on the potential dangers of genetic engineering, which was becoming popular at the time, it was developed with the city in mind as both bananas and lambs were once common cargos in the city's docks.

    I noticed that there's no traffic today. Normally, I dread Tue because of the traffic. It makes me wonder if it has anything to do with the gas price increase. But then again, ganun ba ka price sensitive mga Filipino car owners, kahit pa maging P100/L ang gas (from P60?), assuming you travel 30 km a day and your car gets your 10 km/L, that's just an additional P120 a day, P600 a week or P2400 a month. I guess affected yung mga malayo bahay sa work (eg 20 km one way)

    Dahil medyo lumuwag ang trapik, mas naging reckless ang karerahan sa daan.

    Pansin ko rin na lumuwag ang traffic. Read one post na dumami daw tao sa MRT. So baka some have opted to commute instead. Why do you dread the Tues traffic? Seems same as any other day na traffic pa rin. SOmetimes mas traffic pa ang mondays & fridays for me.

    Nung unemployed pa ko naririnig ko na sa working people na Tue na ang pinaka traffic since marami naka WFH pag Mon and Fri. I did notice that nga pag Tue ang traffic saka puno parking

    ^Actually based on experience, Mondays and Fridays ang pinaka-matrapik. Tuesday is the easiest.

    Congrats Michigan Wolverines for winning the NCAA title, something the Fab 5 fail to do.

    Totoo pala yung mga nababasa ko sa internet na ang luho ng lifestyle pero baon sa utang. I never thought I would experience it myself with someone close to me kasi always looks good at maganda kotse pero ang dami pala utang. In his defense, he grew up well off then they lost their money pero hindi naka adjust sa middle class lifestyle. I drive an old car because I don't want a car loan. I'll only buy a car in cash and I don't travel or buy expensive stuff. Luho ko lang talaga yung fat lab ko saka food hehe.

    Regardless kung anuman ang age nila, ang super cringe pakinggan ng mga conyo tuwing nagsasalita sila in personal. Mas ok pa bisaya eh mas nakakaaliw kahit papaano.
