Pope John Paul II and The Virgin Mary

Got this e-mail and want to share it to the world.

We don't know why John Paul II wanted to hide this picture for years. The Vatican published this picture recently, for first time. This picture was taken by one of his security guards just when the Pope was attacked and was falling down in his Papamobil. You can see the pain in his face.

Joaquin Navarro Valls, who is the one spokesman from The Vatican, said that they made a lot of studies for years of this incredible picture and of course about the quality of the developing of the picture because when it was developed nobody could see very well because the image was not clear. Finally, and after so many controls and being looking and checking by all the experts in photography (around the world), they decided that there were no tricks in it and today they give us this beautiful gift from our Mother of God.

You can see the Mother of God holding John Paul II in her arms. Beautiful right?

Philippine Airlines

Once upon a time in China , there lived a happy couple, Mr. & Mrs. Chan with their 3 lovely daughters; Elaine, Ena & Ella. The 3 daughters were brought up in a prim-and-proper way and when they reached 20, they were still virgins.

Years passed, and it was time to get them married. So, the parents found them the most suitable "leng chais"(handsome guys). They got married and were preparing to set-off on their honeymoon.

As "concerned" parents, Mr. & Mrs. Chan were curious about their daughters' first-night experience. So, before the daughters went on their respective honeymoons, Mrs. Chan told them, "Your father & I want to know about your 1st night encounters and whether you are satisfied. Write a letter to us, but as not to raise your husbands' curiosity... you all must use a code to describe your experiences" .

So, the excited daughters were off. A week passed. Mr. & Mrs . Chan got the first letter. It was from Elaine. They opened the letter and found the word STANDARD CHARTERED. They immediately took the newspaper and looked for the Standard Chartered advertisement. "Ah! Here it is!!!!" exclaimed Mr. Chan. The motto for Standard chartered was... "BIG, STRONG & FRIENDLY." Mr. & Mrs. Chan were happy.

A week later, they got another letter. This time it was from Ena. The content was simple, "NESCAFE". So again they took the newspaper and looked for the Nescafe ad. "Ah! here it is... NESCAFE: PLEASURE TILL THE LAST DROP. Mr. and Mrs. Chan jumped for joy.

Another week passed. A month passed. 2 months passed. There was still no letter from Ella. The Chans became worried. Finally, the letter came. It was scribbled and could hardly be read, but Mrs. Chan managed to figure it out. The code was "PHILIPPINE AIRLINES".

Mr. Chan, confused on why she chose Philippine Airlines, rushed to the nearest store and got a newspaper. He flipped the pages frantically. ...... "Ah! Here it is!!!" Mrs. Chan grabbed the page and read aloud. Before she could finish ...THUMP!!! ... she fell off her chair... The Airline's motto was... "7 TIMES A WEEK. 4 TO 6 TIMES A DAY. NON-STOP."

Manny Pacquiao Beat David Diaz By TKO

I just finished watching the "Lethal Combination" about an hour ago. And once again our very own Pacman did it again after winning the said fight. He won over Dangerous Diaz after Technical Knock-out on the 9th round. Manny reached his dream to be the first Filipino as well as the first Asian to have the 4 World Title in Light Weight Boxing. He just made a record!!!

I am just too lucky to watched it earlier than the rest of the people here in the Philippines. Thanks to the person who shared his HBO Pay Per View over the internet. And to you Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao... Mabuhay!!! Once again you made the Filipinos proud!
