the ice cream man

i took an "ice cream break" from chasing a photo for my entry in flickr 888. started a conversation with Manong Sorbetero (i asked for his name but i completely forgot it now....me and my senior moments) as he was preparing my ice cream.

it didn't take long before i got him to tell an incident he was still furious about. he said he got victimized by a practical joke of a certain tv program. they pretended they were arresting him of illegally selling ice cream inside quezon city memorial park. old as he is, he forgot about his permit and panicked right away.

he got furious when he was told it was only a practical joke.
he said he wasn't able to breath well and laid down on one corner for a few minutes.

"@#^$&*(*&^%@^* ng mga yan", he cursed them.
"kung ako namatay hindi naman ako babayaran ng mga yan." (if i died, i am sure they wont even pay me).

"ni hindi man lang ako binigyan ng tubig...mga walanghiya!" (they didn't even bother to give me a glass of water. shameless!)

sa sobrang ka-busy-han mo, nakakapag-blog ka pa pala... hehe

nice story, minsan nga nakakasakit yung mga prank jokes ng mga nasa tv, and di man lang inintindi yung mga nabiktima nila, before and after the joke...
