ATTENTION to WOMEN: Right to Refuse

The right to refuse .. ( As per Philippine Law )

Guys, pls. pass on to your wife , girlfriends; and ladies, you may want to
forward to any female relatives who may need to know this important
information.


I was talking with a lawyer friend of mine. We were discussing the law and
women`s rights. She told me about this incident - a young girl was raped by
a man posing as a plain clothes officer; he asked her to come to the police
station when she and her male friend didn ' t have a driver`s license to
show. He sent the boy off to get his license and asked the girl to accompany
him to the police station. But instead, the officer took her to an isolated area where the
horrendous crime was committed.

Infact, the law clearly states that between 6 pm and 6am, a woman has the
right to REFUSE to go to the Police Station, even if an arrest warrant has
been issued against her. It is a procedural issue that a woman can be
arrested between 6pm and 6 am , ONLY if she is arrested by a woman officer
and taken to an ALL WOMEN police station. And if she is arrested by a male
officer, it has to be proven that a woman officer was on duty at the time of
arrest.

It is good for us to know our rights. To what extent it comes of use remains
to be seen in any situation. But as they say, knowledge is power. Just
thought I`d share this with you.

I did not know this and am sure lot of us will not know this- please be
informed.... . And pass on this info to whom all u know.......

Guide to the Holidays

This is fascinating thing was just circulated in the office.

Special Attention to those who are Employed:

This might give you an idea on how to spend the Holidays!

Christmas Day December 25 (Thursday)
*Additional special (non-working day) December 26 (Friday)
*Additional special (non-working day) December 29 (Monday)
Rizal Day December 30 (Tuesday)
*Last Day of the Year (Special Holiday ) December 31 (Wednesday)

Here is why:
Note that December 24 is almost always made into a holiday (or at least a half-day working day) in most companies, December 25 is Christmas Day, December 26 is already proclaimed a special non-working day, December 27 and 28 are weekends, December 29 is again a special non-working day, December 30 is Rizal Day, December 31 is a special holiday, January 1 is New Year, January 2 is an “ipit na araw” so who’s going to work on this Friday, while January 3 and 4 are weekends — which means the Christmas season is going to be a 12-day holiday for most people!
No work, just play from December 24, 2008 until January 4, 2009.

Sayang jud ni, we can't enjoy it much because of the financial crisis, huhuhu! What will you do with your bonuses? Spend it!

So kamo Bai, asa man mo ani nga panahona?

I was on avail waiting to take another call when this stuff is forwarded to me! It's so dumb! And I admit, I'm also committing these mistakes. My own version. Well, try to read down below:  



An Eat Bulaga contestant was asked by Joey and Vic: “Ano sa Tagalog ang grasshopper?” Contestant: “Ahmm. . .Huling Hapunan?”


It was an ex-PBB housemate (1st batch) who said this: “Big Brother, ginagawa po nila ako laughing stuff…”

My aunt was going to the US for the 1st time. She told us: “Nagpapabili ang tita niyo ng ‘autistic’ guitar. Saan ba nakakabili nun?”


We were marketing for an org event, when one of my orgmates wanted to clear the definition of the types of sponsors (Major, Minor, Patron, etc.) So she asked her grandma: “Lola, anong mas mataas sa Patron?” Her lola replied: “Patron? Eh di Shell!”


Also in a gameshow. Host: “Ano sa Tagalog ang ‘teeth’?” Contestant: “Utong!”


I once heard an emcee say: “Let’s give her a warm of applause!”


One classmate in highschool said, “Ang cute naman ng sintas mo, luminou!” I corrected him and said, “luminous!” Then he replied, “Oo nga pala, plural!”


Barker ng bus: Ah Cubao, Cubao, Cubao, Cubao, Cubao, Cubao, Cubao, Cubao, Cubao, Cubao!!!” Pasahero: “Boss, Cubao?”


Sa isang gameshow, tinanong ng host: “Anong ‘P’ ang Tagalog ng ’storey’ o ‘floor’ ng building?” Contestan: “PIP PLOR!”


An officemate of ours told us a story about driving alone in her car: “Alam niyo, pag nag-iisa ako, feeling ko…wala akong kasama…”


I had a customer on the line who had a password on his account. I asked for the password but he forgot. I gave him a clue: “It’s a 4-digit number.” He answered, “Uhm…’ROCKY’?”


I overheard a lady place an order at Starbucks: “One cup of chino please.”


An officemate once asked: “Saan sa Quezon City ang Mandaluyong?”


I had a meeting with a friend and I noticed that both of us were wearing stripes. He suddenly blurted out: “Uy, stripes din! It’s the color of the day!”


My sister said of our neighbor who was our arch enemy: “Mamatay na sana kapitbahay natin!” I told her not to say that, coz it might bounce back to us. Then she said, “Ah ganun ba yun? In that case, mamatay na sana tayo!”


When I saw that I got a missed call, I said, “Hey, I got a missed call!” My friend said, “Anong sabi?”


From the gameshow “The Weakest Link”. Host Edu Manzano asked: “Anong ‘T’ ang ibinibigay ng konduktor pag nagbayad ka ng pamasahe sa bus?” Ian Veneracion answered: “TUKLI!”


We were reviewing for an exam and we were already dead tired. A classmate said, “Hala, brownout!” Pagtingin namin, nakapikit pala siya.


A call center agent told a foreign customer regarding the changing of the due date of her credit card: “Ma’am, I already changed your monthly period.”


A home economics teacher asked us: “How do you make wet floor and tow duff?” Translation: “How do you make wheat flour and tough dough”.


During a shower party for my friend, the married women were giving tips on the do’s & dont’s of sexual intercourse, when the bride asked: “Hindi ba kasama yung betlog sa pinapasok?”


Melanie Marquez: “Ang tatay ko lang ang only living legend na buhay pa.”

Mga quotes ni BOB ONG

Guys, something to ponder! hehehehe...


1. "Lahat naman ng tao sumeseryoso pagtinamaan ng pagmamahal. Yun nga lang, hindi lahat matibay para sa temptasyon."

2. "Gamitin ang puso para alagaan ang taong malapit sayo. Gamitin ang utak para alagaan ang sarili mo."

3. "Wag magmadali sa pag-aasawa. Tatlo, lima, sampung taon sa hinaharap, mag-iiba pa ang pamantayan mo at maiisip mong di pala tamang pumili ng kapareha dahil lang sa kaboses niya si Debbie Gibson o kamukha nya si Mike Scofield o kahawig nya si Nick Carter or magaling mag-breakdance. Totoong mas importante ang kalooban ng tao higit anuman. Sa paglipas ng panahon, maging ang mga crush ng bayan sa eskwelahan e nagmumukha ring pandesal. Maniwala ka."

4. "Hindi lungkot o takot ang mahirap sa pag-iisa kundi ang pagtanggap na sa bilyon-bilyong tao sa mundo, wala man lang nakipaglaban upang makasama ka."

5. "Kung nagmahal ka ng taong di dapat at nasaktan ka, wag mong sisihin ang puso mo. Tumitibok lng yan para mag-supply ng dugo sa katawan mo. Ngayon, kung magaling ka sa anatomy at ang sisisihin mo naman ay ang hypothalamus mo na kumokontrol ng emotions mo, mali ka pa rin! Bakit? Utang na loob! Wag mong isisi sa body organs mo ang mga sama ng loob mo sa buhay! Tandaan mo: magiging masaya ka lang kung matututo kang tanggapin na hindi ang puso, utak, atay o bituka mo ang may kasalanan sa lahat ng nangyari sayo, kundi IKAW mismo!"

6. "Mangarap ka at abutin mo. Wag mong sisihin ang sira mong pamilya, palpak mong syota, pilay mong tuta, o mga lumilipad na ipis. Kung may pagkukulang sa'yo mga magulang mo, pwde kang manisi at maging rebelde. Tumigil ka sa pag-aaral, mag-asawa ka, mag-drugs ka, magpakulay ka ng buhok sa kili-kili. Sa banding huli, ikaw din ang biktima. Rebeldeng walang napatunayan at bait sa sarili."

6. "Huwag mong bitawan ang bagay na hindi mo kayang makitang hawakan ng iba."

7. "Huwag mong hawakan kung alam mong bibitawan mo lang."

8. "Huwag na huwag ka hahawak kapag alam mong may hawak ka na."

9. "Parang elevator lang yan eh, bakit mo pagsisiksikan ung sarili mo kung walang pwesto para sayo. Eh meron naman hagdan, ayaw mo lang pansinin."

10. "Pag may mahal ka at ayaw sayo, hayaan mo. Malay mo sa mga susunod na araw ayaw mo na din sa kanya, naunahan ka lang."

11. "Hiwalayan na kung di ka na masaya. Walang gamot sa tanga kundi pagkukusa."

12. "Pag hindi ka mahal ng mahal mo wag ka magreklamo. Kasi may mga tao rin na di mo mahal pero mahal ka. Kaya quits lang."

13. "Bakit ba ayaw matulog ng mga bata sa tanghali? alam ba nilang pag natuto silang umibig e hindi na sila makakatulog kahit gusto nila?

14. "nalaman kong hindi final exam ang passing rate ng buhay. hindi ito multiple choice, identification, true or false, enumeration or fill-in-the-blanks na sinasagutan kundi essay na isinusulat araw-araw. Huhusgahan ito hindi base sa kung tama o mali ang sagot, kundi base sa kung may kabuluhan ang mga isinulat o wala. Allowed ang erasures."

15. "ayokong nasasanay sa mga bagay na pwede namang wala sa buhay ko "

16. "hinahanap mo nga ba ako o ang kawalan ko?"

17. "hindi dahil sa hindi mo naiintindihan ang isang bagay ay kasinungalingan na ito. at hindi lahat ng kaya mong intindihin ay katotohanan. "

18. "Kumain ka na ng siopao na may palamang pusa o maglakad sa bubog nang nakayapak, pero wag na wag kang susubok mag-drugs. Kung hindi mo kayang umiwas, humingi ka ng tulong sa mga magulang mo dahil alam nila kung saan ang mga murang supplier at hindi ka nila iisahan."

19. "Mag-aral maigi. Kung titigil ka sa pag-aaral, manghihinayang ka pagtanda mo dahil hindi mo naranasan ang kakaibang ligayang dulot ng mga araw na walang pasok o suspendido ang klase o absent ang teacher. (Haaay, sarap!)."

Filipino Millionaire Parks His Ferrari in NY

I read it twice. Pinoy kasi ang bida!

***

A Filipino walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the
Loan officer. He tells the loan office! R that he is going to the Philippines on
Business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer
Tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so
The Filipino hands over the keys of a new Ferrari.

The car is parked on the street in front of the bank. The
Filipino produces the title and everything checks out. The loan officer
Agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan. The bank's
President and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the Pinoy for using
A $250,000 Ferrari as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of
The bank then drives the Ferrari into the bank's underground garage and
Parks it there.

Two weeks later, the Pinoy returns, repays the $5,000 and the
Interest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says, 'Sir, we are
Very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked
Out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we
Checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles
Us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?'

The Pinoy replies: 'Where else in New York City can I park my
Car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I
Return.'



Makunat but smart LOL
