Mickey Mouse... err, Mikey's House

It's in the family.

Whatever Gloria in the Palace says, expect the opposite. At any rate, she is famous for Orwellian double-talk. And it could be in the genes. Inquirer reports that her son, Mikey Arroyo, who had been claiming to be very transparent had not been transparent after all. According to the report:

Pampanga Rep. Juan Miguel “Mikey” Arroyo has not declared in his Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net worth (SALN) for the last two years a $1.32-million (P63.7-million) beachfront property in the San Francisco Bay area in California that he bought and then transferred to his wife Angela in 2006.

Mikey is the eldest of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s three children.

The house at 1655 Beach Park Blvd. in Foster City, San Mateo County, is now up for sale, but the property does not appear in Mikey’s 2007 and 2008 SALN... (which is a requirement in the guidelines and by the law.)

Or Mikey has the dictionary that her mother has and transparency is defined as "being open to share information that's only the tip of the iceberg"? Whatever. Anyway, if Inquirer is correct in the description of the place, below are the pics of the alleged Mikey's house na dapat nating e-enjoy panoorin. Dapat nga ba?

The front view: Ano kayang sasakyan ang ipinapasok sa garahe? Undeclared din kaya yun?

The backyard... Sa Mr. & Mrs. Smith me underground basement pa para sa mga tools at iba pang gamit ni Bradd Pitt. Meron din kaya dito?

The Family Room and the Living Room. Mukhang masarap tumambay dito. Pang-ilang reincarnation kaya ang kailangang maranasan ng mga pulubi sa Pampanga para makatambay sa ganito?


At ang kitchen at ang dining room. Gara, di ba? Ano kaya ang iniluluto sa kitchen at inilalatag sa mesa? Kahit ba amoy man lang puwede kayang pagbigyan ang mga humihingi ng limos sa mga kalsada ng Pampanga? O kaya mga barker ng jeep na mali-mali ang itinuturong direksiyon dahil siguro sa gutom, puwede rin kayang paamuyin ng mga iniluluto at inihahapag sa mesang kainan?

Kung sabagay, di naman kasalanan ni Mikey kung bakit siya mapera. Tiyak, nagsipag din siya o kaya ang mga magulang niya para lang ma-acquire ang mga properties na yun. Kasalanan ng mga pulubi, batang kalye at barkers ng jeep sa Pampanga kasi hindi sila marunong pumili ng mayamang magulang bago sila ipinanganak. At kasalanan din nila dahil hindi sila naging pulitiko, di ba, Mikey?

Neri comes, Neri goes... and the Carlo Caparas Blunder

It's been a while (again) since my last post. Even then, visitors continually access this site looking for something new. And tadaaannn!!!! Here's the list.

  1. Romulo Neri will be suspended for his participation in the ZTE Scandal especially for being shy to talk about his President's participation and for being so shy to tell Ben Abalos to "back off".
  2. Abalos is also indicted "just for being nice to the ZTE people." Talaga? Is that also the reason why he is so nice to Neri for offering the 200...? Kaso mukhang kulang ang 200. Dapat siguro 300 para wala ng mag-squeal.
  3. Joey de Venecia, the squealer, is planning to run for Senator. Ayos yan para walang sikreto sa Senado... if the price is not right. (?)
  4. Pero ang kakapal naman. Kay Bayani Fernando nga okay na ang P1.6 million. Diba BF? Musta ang mga kakalsadahan natin? Mukhang maraming nagkalat na picture mo at praise releases. Kasama ba yan sa P1.6 M?
  5. Pero if Joey De Venecia is running for Senator and BF for President, Komiks writer-turned director is running for Senator para patunayan na karapat-dapat siya to receive the National Artist Award. Quoting Caparas: They are forcing me to run for a political post, mapipilitan siguro ako because of what they are doing, na parang walang karapatan ang isang galing sa masa na katulad ko na maging National Artist.
Akhhhh!!!

Nabulunan ako dun ah. Since when na ba ang eleksiyon naging venue for the selection of the National Artists?
