Thank You, TONY BLAIR

A few days ago,
the world bade goodbye to one of my idols,

PRIME MINISTER TONY BLAIR

of the United Kingdom,
arguably the most charismatic political leader,
and definitely the best speaker,
since John F. Kennedy and Ninoy Aquino.


I'd planned to write a longer tribute,
and I will still do so,

but this past Friday,
at my cousin Kat Hizon's wedding to Walter Yu of Cebu,

I couldn't resist posing like the PM,
as I announced the proclamation of
Fr. Ed Panlilio as Pampanga's New Governor
to our families and friends ",

(the problem is,
I look more like horndog Bill Clinton in this picture.)
