Sulpicio sues PAGASA for wrong forecast

I saw this one on the news today. Ug naka-ingon ko'g unsaaaaa?

Ever heard of "unpredictable as weather". Because that's what it is. Unpredictable. What about forecast? Forecast means, "To estimate or calculate in advance, especially to predict (weather conditions) by analysis of meteorological data."

It is sad that a lot of people died. But I don't think Pag-asa would have been able to stop it. It is unfortunate that this happened. Everybody knew there was a typhoon. It would have been common sense to not sail.

Okay, so 17 teen-aged girls got pregnant in Gloucester, Massachusetts. All of them are from one school. Man! They have some sexually active kids over there? I'm waiting for news of statutory rape. waiting... waiting....

If I was a parent of one of those kids, I'd be pretty devastated. Bearing children is such a huge responsibility. They could turn out to be really good parents. But really, how ready are you when you're not even old enough to vote?
