Francesca said...: PIGEON or Statue?

Pigeon does the popo to the statue.
Its better, statue na lang tayo always, kasi it meant we did more valuable, other wise, wala tayong statue.di ba?

But, pigeon, ok rin, they are part of beautiful creation,

Unless, behave sila, kasi, kainis sila they make "kaka" everywhere, inis Butler, haha!; June 22, 2007 4:00 AM
Señor Enrique said...: Many thanks, Ele!; June 22, 2007 7:11 AM
Señor Enrique said...: Many thanks also, Luke!; June 22, 2007 7:12 AM
Señor Enrique said...: Just stay away as much as you can from Butler's range, Francesca, to avoid his kaka. Hehehe!; June 22, 2007 7:13 AM
Aura said...: Good capture of La Madre SE !! I like the quote too....but it´s a good thing that we dont have so much pigeons flying around Mla. otherwise that beautiful statue will be full of "kuko" as they say here in lisbon..their dropings are very damaegable to buildings & even at cars.
Thanks also for droping by at my blog,im new to it..
Regards; June 22, 2007 6:22 PM
Señor Enrique said...: I think the pigeons here in Manila are mostly privately bred and cared for, Aura. Besides, I think we have enough stinkers here ... hahaha!

My pleasure, Aura. It's a nice site you have; a cool place to learn about Lisbon culture :); June 22, 2007 8:27 PM
Gerald (Ackworth born) said...: Love the quote and the photo -- we have lots of pigeons around here.; June 22, 2007 8:47 PM
Señor Enrique said...: Welcome to Manila, Ackworth!

Thank you very much. I had also just visited your site. You do have some fascinating photographs. I will be visiting it regularly.; June 22, 2007 9:06 PM

That someday, I can yell at those big bosses and fire them!

Hahahaha!

O' well it ain't gonna happen, so I will always be the statue.; June 23, 2007 1:49 PM
Señor Enrique said...: That's basically a dream you share with our universal work force, Reyd! Hehehe.; June 23, 2007 8:01 PM
Anonymous said...: That's a funny quote. I don't know which is better though. If you're the statue, you'll get the droppings. If you're the pigeon, well, you're the pigeon. :)

I love this photo... great angle!; June 24, 2007 6:54 PM
Señor Enrique said...: I know what you mean, Toe :)

Many thanks!; June 24, 2007 7:27 PM

Wish you were here
