listen to the exclusive sit down with Manny
Senator Manny Villar Jr
Dear Readers,
This is from Victorina Blog (excellent entries this week as always):
After the much talked about hullabaloo regarding Manny Vilar's anti-obscenity bill, the Senate President has decided to guest tomorrow in the Good Times with Mo, Mojo and Grace at 6-9 am (wed)! Let's all listen to what the Senate President has to say... Mo twister conveys his massage- (verbatim) "as some of you may know, i hate holidays because less people listen to the show. tomorrow is a holiday and thats a shame because we have Manny Villar on the program. he officially will be the highest ranking philippines government official to be on our show (manny is 3rd in command of our country). i like this guy…alot. and its unfortunate that less people will be on the road tomorrow but i guess i can grab clips and replay some of it on thursday. speaking of, thursday will be a big show cuz its grace’s birthday episode plus it also her first year on the program which is a big deal cuz it is the only time that a female co-host has lasted as whole year. "
Note to Amiel: I love the freestyle writing! Excellent! No caps! Wicked mate.
