    Shocking news!

    My Girlfriend reported today that 5 kids have been kidnapped in the South Western town of Dipolog.
    Shockingly snatched in an unmarked van.
    Kids being targeted for body parts, eyes, kidneys etc! Allegedly this has been rife in Manila for quite some time!

    Jimbo,its an urban legend spread from word of mouth and tsismis,they arent kidnapped for body-parts,I have heard the same thing when I was in central america,guy goes to party,given spiked drink,wakes up on waste ground with a crudely stitched wound where his kidney was,do a search on it,that legend has run all around the world,the easiest place to buy body-parts like kidneys is india,at least then your going to get a match in the hospital.



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Heres a link to a similar thread posted by Boy 5 days ago except in this case the snatchers were purportedly operating in Malabon and not Dipolog,its urban scaremongering like the legends of the chupacabra or springheel-jack,its scaremongering,no more no less,people hear the rumour and it grows and grows till its no longer a rumour but "Fact"

    I just did a quick search mate,rumour indeed,even found a newsreport of a guy who was arrested for spreading the hearsay

    http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx...bCategoryId=65

    I have lots of contacts in Mindanao,got family members who are police officers including one who is very high ranking,never heard a thing from them about this,I will ask around for verification but gut-instinct is its usual backwater tsismis .
