"Are you joining the Subic Triathlon this Summer and the China trip in June?"
I sent this SMS message to Doc.
"I'm not sure yet," he replied. And then he hinted at his impending poverty.
Like the rest of the civil servants in this country, he is grossly underpaid.
"I've started to engage in 'rackets', like home-service vaccinations and deworming."
I replied, "Welcome to the club." I'm a 'racketeer' myself.
"Have you posted your services in Meralco's electric posts?"
"Noooo! that is so pathetic. I'm not a plumber."
"You should. It's quite effective in drawing in prospective customers, you know. That's how I found my piano tuner."
"I rely mostly on word-of-mouth advertising."
I think he might consider it, though.

You do realize that some of those "tubero" ads on meralco posts are actually advertising male prostitutes?
Maybe your friend's piano tuner does a bit of organ grinding on the side.
