The Wheel and Axle

*** Zzzssspoiler Alert, ‘Teh!***

Bonggalacious!

Finally, after almost a decade of waiting, fans get to see the sequel to Ang Kagila-gilalas na Pakikipagsapalaran ni Zsazsa Zaturnnah, the critically-acclaimed comic book by Carlo Vergara. Part one of Zsazsa Zaturnnah sa Kalakhang Maynila has finally arrived. The award-winning original two-part series spawned a compilation graphic novel, a long-running stage musical, a movie, and various merchandise. Fans have eagerly clamored for the buxom beauty’s return, and now that it’s here, it is worth the wait.

Once again, the Damasos speak.

In what has to be the most irony-laden stand in the history of idiocy, the Creepy Busybodies’ Coalition of the Philippines (CBCP) is targeting the anti-discrimination bill currently being reviewed by the Senate. The mission? To eliminate provisions around LGBT rights.

Apparently, there is none.

At least, with some people.

In this day and age, in a place where one’s comfort is thought to have always been secure due to progressive and inclusive ideals being espoused, it is frightening to learn that fear of the different is alive and well.

So this will probably go down in Philippine history as one of the most idiotic weeks the public has had the misfortune of being subjected to.

Let’s begin with the bishops. It was bound to happen. One moron opens his mouth, and the hordes follow. After a scandal erupts (this time not involving the molestation of young boys), they close ranks to prove the adage, in the mighty words of Azenith Briones, “Burds of de same fedder… flak togeyder!”

So thank goodness for Guadalupe traffic.

Now, something will keep half the population plus another 10% entertained while crawling through EDSA.

Dear Your Eminence,

(or is it Highness, I could never get these things right)

I wanted to write you this letter to congratulate you for your recent statements that have been quite enlightening.

Although I am a practicing Methodist and was raised a Protestant by my mother, I studied for twelve years in the premiere Jesuit school in our country.

Thus, I found your statements quite intriguing as these led me to new insights about Catholic doctrine that I never knew existed. You learn something new everyday, as they say.

X: A Super-Hero Love Story, Part 1

And so Charles and Erik begin to train their newly-gathered ragtag band of misfits. Training montage!

We see Charles constantly grabbing Banshee by the throat to teach him how to properly “control his muscles” there. We see Hank and Havok, who bares his lovely arms, routinely bickering like a loving couple.

“Prof. X and Magneto: A Love Story” is a more apt title for “X-Men: First Class.” In this prequel (or re-boot, the jury seems to still be out on that one) to the “X-Men” movie series, we see how it all began with Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr, future frenemies and apparently former star-crossed would-have-been-lovers, except for the conflicting ideologies.
