Mounting the TUG’s Pier 1, Jan 20, 2011

Not bad.

Nice attendance. I would like to think that we all flocked to Pier 1 to see and be with Jun Salgado and Art Cantiller and not to pick up the homecoming t’shirts. Sadly the two will not be around to join us on 5 February. They will however propagate the Spirit of TUGetherness of 76 in their respective stations over at the other side of the Pacific blazoning.

Annual Christmas Party 2010

Our traditional mass officiated by Fr. Dennis had just ended when I arrived at 9:00 pm last night. Parking this year was not the ordeal it was last year.

Pier 1, The Fort, Taguig – “If you make the call, they will come.” was the theme for this edition of what has come to be known as Bong J’s “Mount the Troops” gatherings because it materialized within days of his email invite. Read more “Mount the Troops Fundraiser, Pier 1 Sept, 2010”

Battle of the Brains

This week, a contribution from Tonichi Caballero, [4J]. We have changed the word “La Sallites” to “Lasallians” in keeping with the latest conventions and added a title just for archiving purposes later on.

*****

Three Lasallians and three Ateneans were on their way to a scholars competition in a nearby province.

At the train depot the Ateneans noticed the three Lasallians had purchased only one ticket.

Curious the Ateneans watched the Lasallians carefully as they proceeded to board the train.

When the conductor called for departure and as the train began its journey, the three Lasallians entered one cubicle of the comfort room.

As the conductor made his rounds, collecting tickets, he knocked on the cubicle with the three Lasallians. A ticket was slipped past the crack in the door and the conductor moved on.

On the return trip, the Ateneans, not wanting to be out done by their arch rivals, proceeded to the ticket counter and purchased only one ticket.

To their amazement, the Lasallians did not buy any ticket at all!

When the fateful time came for the conductor to do the rounds, the Ateneans piled into a cubicle of their own.

The Lasallians waited a moment for the Ateneans to settle down. One Lasallian casually strolled over to the cubicle and knocked, “Tickets please”, and a ticket was slipped past the door, he proceeded to collect the ticket and the three Lasallians filed into the adjacent cubicle.
