Watch Me Entertain Myself!

Hey BF, Istatue?

This is a statue near the Marikina Public Market. What’s being depicted, I have no idea. What is the doctor doing to the kid, cleaning up his ass or getting ready to collect a massive amount of his stool sample? (FYI, the kid was sculpted anatomically correct. I checked. Twice.)

This, along with other statues, was erected all over Marikina when BF’ was still mayor. Paging BF, paging BF, what in heaven’s name is this?!

Yikes! I've heard that BF was a neat freak. Maybe the statue is a reminder to Marikinians (is that a word?) to "hugusan ang wetpu" after doing number 2. I'm curious as to what this statue is all about.

JOSH: Go, link lang ng link! :-)

TESSA: I will, but I have no idea how to go about it. Do I just go up to Mayor Marides Fernando and go, "What the hell was your hubby thinking with that?!" AHAHAHAHA!

JOHN: "I've heard that BF was a neat freak." True-laloo at walang halong eklavuh!

But that's not just the reason why Marikina's so clean these days; cleanliness is important to maintain discipline and order in a community.

Still, I wonder... is the statue a re-enactment of BF's childhood? Hmmmmm!

Actually from this angle the kid does look like a young BF, so maybe that childhood thing is correct.
