FIGHT FORWARD
By: Iris P. Concepcion

Over at the radio, meanwhile, inanities still pervade via jammed waves.

And thus I heard the enigmatic and sentence-zapping words: "How much does your rehab cost?"

Children of the corn can answer this query, off the bat, straightly and even without wearing winter fur. They had built their entire writing life dissecting themselves and the medium is much richer for their forthright materials. They do not shrink to capitalize on these real dramatics versus the covered-up ones. They could coin words like: "Hungry For Love? Eat Our Ribs." Compare this with an ad for a financial institution with picture squares splattered over the entire commercial canvass and you get my point.

A Balenciaga snob can be a serious threat to the power psyche. Most especially when the ostracized Tondo guys were given tickets as invites but chose to spend time protecting a bird from guys with terrible accents.

I do not know what is more important. A nod, or a snub from above?

I am neither down nor up so I do not know how to answer this question.
