When various government departments, on Guam, started being staffed by Filipinos .... within a few years, it was 85% Flip. It's like the old adage, when someone marries a Filipina, it's "Buy One. Get Twelve Free". On Saipan, everyone I knew that married a Filipina .... within two or three years .... mother brought over, sisters, cousins, uncles ..... and some children that she had, "when she was young and foolish", but never told her husband about .... Welcome to the Commonwealth! A mechanical engineer that I worked with, actually a MEPE and EEPE (he'd passed both PE exams) married a Filipina. Went to PI to meet her family, they being SUCH devout Roman Catholics and all .... Right after Roman and Rose had their first child .... Rose did the normal Filipina, breaking down in tears, and told Roman about "when she was young and foolish ...". So, over came Roman's PREGNANT stepdaughter. Of course, Rose talked Roman into adopting her ..... So, at the ripe old age of thirty-one ... Roman is "Grampa".

You cannot make up this stuff. Buy One. Get Twelve Free.
