ya, I say "dili ko amerikano" (in bisaya here), yet, they just laugh and say "Amerikano Ka"! It's like there's 2 types of people on this earth.

1)Amerikano's
and
2)Filipinos!

like I said before, it's a matter of Heducation!

Thanks for your lovely thoughts

bless you Jim

in fact,
Bless ALL Jims
hehehehe Amen to that

Aye Arthur you're included too

Yep I suppose they suffer for having been invaded and occupied by the Americans for so long, my Filipino mates are not terribly fond of the Americans.

I also knew one American lad over there, a drummer, a good one at that, who at first seemed pretty nice but then we met him trying to get a taxi and he was giving the finger to the locals cursing and swearing at them as well, not exactly going to endear himself to the locals that way :(

In part that's why I stress the "Hindi ko amerikano" (I forgot the letter c does not exist over there ) when I get the "Hey Joe"
