June 8, 2012 If I were...

If I were BAYO, I would highlight more about being Filipino rather than saying mixed Filipino is an almost "sure formula" for success.  The BUY FILIPINO statement somewhat contradicts their opening line and the "Buy Filipino" phrase would appear directed to a foreigner who would want to have a child who will gain fame and a fighting chance to be world class. It could be misconstrued that way and the tourism goes up lol.  And it could be part of the It's more fun in the Philipines campaign with a byline of It's more fun in the Philippines because you can create world-class babies. It becomes like an ad to have children with Filipinos rather than buying BAYO. With that joke, my unsolicited advise to Bayo is that there are surely a million better ways to promote Filipino products so go back to the drawing board and make a new concept.  Good thing, they apologized and took down the ads. If it is all about mix and match then they should hire Americans, Australians, and Africans and say that Bayo makes you look good regardless of your race, class, ethnicity, social status, etc.

If I were the sole winner of the 87.7 million pesos prize in tonight's PCSO 6/49 Lotto Draw, I would sell my ticket for 90 million to a politician or government official who is having a hard time in making his SALN. Winning the lottery is a good excuse for sudden enrichment. ;)

If I  were the Oklahoma Thunder, I would postpone any parties for winning the Western Conference Finals because the real prize is winning the Larry O'Brien Trophy.  They definitely have what it takes to start a major title run. They are young and hungry and they could probably win many titles in the next couple of years.

If I were President P-noy, I would definitely pick a new Chief Justice from outside the current roster of Supreme Court justices. The Supreme Court was a collegial body when it made some controversial decisions while impeached Renato Corona was sitting as CJ.  A good candidate could be someone a bit old and has no history of corruption. Though it may be hard to find that. ;)

If I were in Baguio or in nearby towns, I would watch and support the Ronda Pilipinas 2012. Cycling is probably one of the sports that we can excel. Since our cyclists cannot afford the expensive drugs that world class cyclists use, we can probably claim that we have the "cleanest" tour in the world. ;)
