Back To The 70's


Recommended Posts

I remember that I used to see people cutting grass or doing some other form of community service just because they were caught or arrested breaking the curfew the night before.

 

Looking back, it was just a farce perpetrated from within the walls of Malacanang. :angry: :thumbsdownsmiley:

 

 

I agree with you pareng willow boy. Ang lamig na siguro jan sa inyo? Dito, mainit pa rin at parang mas masaya ang pasko last year.

 

Actually, corny ang pasko ng martial law years dahil sa lecheng curfew. Bawal pa noon ang paputok pero sila panay ang paputok ng baril :thumbsdownsmiley:

Oo, pards, malamig na sa East Coast. In fact, snowy and windy ang forecast sa area namin bukas. Sa tagal ko na dito e I still can't say na sanay na 'ko sa snow. I still haven't gotten used to it. Hassle kasi na you have to put on several layers of clothing para lang pumunta sa tindahan. I hate it pero it is what it is.

 

I remember noong martial law na supposedly ay masaya na tayo kapag ni-lift ni Makoy for a day ang curfew because of a holiday (usually Christmas) o kaya ay inextend niya ito to 1 a.m. instead of 12 midnight. Utang na loob pa natin sa kanya. :thumbsdownsmiley:

In 79, Nonoy Marcelo introduced the irreverent Ikabod Bubwit :P

 

Yup, pards! He also introduced us to characters such as Aling Otik the Metro Aide and Bos Myawok! Unfortunately, he was taken from us too soon. :( My cousin studied Fine Arts at UP and Nonoy was her professor. Ang galing daw talaga ni Nonoy Marcelo and very witty.

I remembered I gave a signed Ikabod pocketbook to my girldriend. Nasaan na kaya iyon?

 

Pareng Storm,

 

She probably made a tidy sum out of it by selling it on eBay. :lol:

 

Biro lang, pards. This was a great strip/satire for Nonoy Marcelo was able to get it done under the very noses of the censors of the Marcos regime. :thumbsupsmiley:

We knew mang Nonoy personally. He's also from Malabon. I met him when I was a little kid during the time of his Tisoy comic strip.

He referred to Malabon as Malavenice. :D

 

Tama si Pareng wb...must-have collection na yan including many of his editorial sketches with Manila Times.

Another famous local cartoon strip then was GORIO AND HIS JEEPNEY. The movie version starred funnyman Chiquito. Just can't remember who authored this amusing character. :cool:

there was also Blidit, the frog :P

ok maybe I've posted this a hundred times here already, but I never get tired of repeating it: the full name of Aling Otik is NARKOTIKA VDA. DE CLIPETICLAP - hence her son is named Clip :D - the barkada of Tisoy.

 

speaking of Tisoy, i always see Jimmy Morato here in our Marikina parish every Sunday - a little chubby but still with the same Tisoy looks....
