I hate the local news these days. Nothing good seems to ever come out of it.

Apparently the latest craze for crime in Laguna these days is to pose as patients at a dental clinic and then hold them up for whatever cash and dental equipment they can get their hands on. Authorities believe that this series of heists is the work of one group. Which one? I guess we've yet to find out.
Have gun will run
In a place like Abra, the story is if you want to run for government, you have to get yourself an army.
To a city kid like me stories of mafia-style political activity in provincial areas seem like the stuff of someone's exaggerated spaghetti western but it's a fact of life for those who live in places where lines are drawn in the sand between families who fund standing private armies that do whatever musclework is needed to ensure their survival in the political arena.
