In the News: Free Teeth for Policemen!

Police Bare Teeth to Boost Public Image

Yes, if you're a Filipino policeman with bad teeth, chances are that you are one of the 200 lucky policemen who received some free new teeth from President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's hustband Mike. You may remember them from such posts as this one here. Filipinos like to smile a lot (most people like to smile a lot). I guess big toothy grins are better than toothless, gummy ones. Now they can smile nicely when they greet people while flirtatiously raising their eyebrows up and down. At least they're not spending their money on bullets. You can only use bullets once, but dentures last a life time :-).

Special thanks to Noona for the heads up on this one.
