The Taiwan earthquake officially reached Caloocan shores when my Bayantel and PLDT DSL connections went kaput, preventing me from uploading photos in the last two days. During my travels in northern Luzon, locals would say in jest that they are closer to Taiwan than to Manila (a sardonic comment on Philippine's government incapability) that they hear Taipei's cock crowing in the morning -- a joke purportedly invented by my wife's late dad in his Visayan dreams. This cock (don't you just love saying that without *bleep*?) ain't the one in Taiwan but is equally dashing as all Alpha males at the foot of pedestrian overpass in Balintawak can be.
