Slip of the Pen?

If you are a grammar police who usually gets irritated and cannot stand your penchant for the use of the fractured King's language ... incoherent sentence structure and semantics ... mind-boggling syntax and word coordination ... this nook is not for you. 

But traveling from Aparri to Jolo ... we encountered signage in the streets that managed to put a smile on our faces ... even though Robin Padilla's grandiose display of bad opinions ... or China's flexing his superpower muscle ... has riled up and angered our tender sensibilities.

We are here to celebrate (not mock) the little cracks and flaws in the manner we communicate ourselves. All of us make mistakes ... and at a time when a kilo of rice at 20 pesos is next to impossibility ... we need a little outlet to have a hearty laugh.

And no matter how overused the cliche goes ... Laughter is the best medicine.

Sorry guys ... this is not a slip of the pen.  It is a premeditated and carefully thought of scheme ... and there is fully a conscious and willful intent and a measure of forethought to go on as planned.

Following the popular chain of stores sprouting like mushrooms all over the Philippines ... Seven Evelyn is a smart business scheme ... it follows the maxim "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." Even the choice of colors in the store business name and its rooftop is a carbon copy and very similar in character ... in hues, shade, and tone to the original.

Clap ... clap ... clap!
