Mr. Kervie:

It is the worst of times. Worst for you getting caught between a rock and a hard place.

The ignorance . . .

When you entered the Forum you didn’t have even an iota what it looks or feel like. You’re captivated by that iridescent way on how you interpreted your beliefs.

You jumped into something you thought compatible, that the Forum is an ordinary kitchen. The Forum Mr. Kervie, is not a kitchen, but a blast furnace of the US Steel Works at Gary, Indiana.

The melt down . . .

At 2200 degrees Fahrenheit, it will dissolve everything, and like a Kraft queso de bola, you’ll liquefy not even well for a grilled cheese sandwich.

The misguided . . .

Do you really know the OFW? The Japayoke? This blatant export of the flesh to work in cultures non-compatible to the Philippines creates exploitation unimaginable. Evanescent of the slave trade of the 18th century when tribal chiefs of Africa sold the conquered . . . their own people for profit.

How can you be proud of that, Mr. Kervie?
