Auntie Charo's Soapbox

Okay, so yesterday, the new Lord at the gov's office, Tony Lamorena stuttered his way through trying(through various times of clearing his throat(psychologists recognize this as trying to keep from telling the...ya know, the truth) Lamorena couldn't think of a good enough excuse for the government to have a travel bureau in the Philippines so he insulted the Filipinos and said that they could come to Guam and would be sure that their purchases of designer products were a sure thing...not a sure thing in the PI....and that....the bureau had to open an office there to help the airlines from losing more seats so that they(the airlines) wouldn't just pull out, so stupid, he even said that unlike hotels that couldn't just 'pull out', airlines could easily pull out. When one of the talk hosts asked if the airlines was thinking about pulling out, Mr. Lamorena(short on live brain cells) replied, 'you never know.' Unlike the brave Mr. Whatchamacallit Dave Tydingco I-know-it-all-and-can-spin-it-faster-than-Lamorena-and-think-I-can-fool-Patti-and-Ray-by-calling-them-names...Dave Tydingco said that the other islands would be represented in the GVB office.........and when asked if these NGOs would be paying he skipped the issue as if he were playing hopscotch.....answered everything but the question, including paying for rooms in Japan....the answer of course was no but he never came to the answer...and everytime he realized he was spinning too fast, he used the 'whatchamacallit' word....oh he must've been dizzy spinning.
I'm certain that in his pea-brain(oops, sorry peas, I don't mean to pick on you) but, he probably thinks that he thinks he convinced Patti and Ray that there was transparency in the two-year sole RFP response for the GVB office, or something like that which was the reason the island, or the world(like the secret of Fatima) didn't know about the contract until the opening of the office(and here we are with an inquisition at the hospital for questionable contracts what a crock of takee!) Our friend the thinker wants to question Phil Flores for the contracts at GMH....who do we question for the contract for that $36K office in the PI? Has anyone done the math for how many dollars we're going to spend for each tourist to come to Guam on that $36K?
At least when Carl TC Gutierrez spent the money, he combined the office with the medical referral office......We're truly a bunch of hypocrites.....we say we're broke......but when we have $36K to spend frivolously, we must have tons of money, hell, let's create a GVB office in Paris, Munich, Athens, Barcelona, Rome, and Bangkok, I'm sure Dave and his buddies would love a junket or two to those places and I'm sure Jal, NWA, CO and PAL fly direct or indirectly to those places and would continue their flights to Guam if we had travek offices there. Wow, think of it, Duty Free would make millions, customers would be coming to Guam to buy genuine designer products instead of fake ones sold in these places!
Once again, Guam has been slapped in the face. Just as it has been slapped with the negotiations at Oka Point with the dragon hotel and the Chinese aliens that want to build their tower that overlooks what was once the land of the ancestors.....the plans coming to the public hours before hand-in-pen-comes to the contract.....this time, GVB has, in the dark(Dave, it isn't public when we have to have access to your minutes to get the information) that we've contracted(we don't know for how long since no one has yet asked the question)$36K for travel services in the PI only after the fact.
I dare Ray and Patti to call the Department of Immigration and ask just how many visas they've turned down for travel to Guam during the last six months...............bet the numbers don't add up to the needs of a travel office, let alone one that costs this defunct government $36K!
Otherwise.......................have a nice day, we're rolling in money! Who knows where in the world we're having another grand opening! Biba Guam! Bib GVB! Biba the Kadukus that think they can fool some of the people all of the time!
