200-02-24 Update

Hi everyone, for those of you who are wondering Pinky Webb will be pinch hitting for Karen on TV Patrol World for a couple of weeks. I knew that because earlier this morning I heard it from Cheryl Cosim, she was explaining to one of the viewers/listeners (I'm not really sure because it was on teleradyo) why Karen isn't back on TVPW yet, she said that she's having her 2-week vacation. In my opinion I would love to see Pinky Webb on TVPW every night, but I think that would really be tough on her with her schedule and everything. And I would definitely not like it if she'll leave UKG in favor of TVPW, UKG will never be the same without her.

On a different note, I would like to thank everyone for making my birthday extra special. Special shoutout to K, for announcing my brithday to the world (I felt like a celebrity for a moment because I got lots of birthday greetings on my e-mail) and to Miss Pinky Webb and Alex Santos for greeting me on air yesterday. I know it's a couple of days late but still, it's the thought that counts. And with that... I can say that this is the most amazing birthday I ever had.

Thanks a lot!

Pinky Webb to replace Karen Davila in TV Patrol World?

Posted on February 18, 2009 by pinoyobserver

I just watched Pinky Webb deliver the news in lieu of Karen Davila over at TV Patrol World. She’s perfect. She’s not only eye candy on screen–she also projects a very professional mien.

Webb does not have the baggage of being a very close follower of discredited president Arroyo. Karen, well, enjoys the enviable position as an administration supporter, which is a kiss of death for any reporter. A reporter should not have any semblance of partiality to anybody, lest himself.

Everytime Karen anchors the afternoon radio show over at DZMM, ratings mysteriously dip. Why? Obviously, Karen takes care of certain “controversial figures” which shows when she goes to the booth. Karen defends Arroyo everytime. Remember her obvious editorial partiality when the Joc-Joc Bolante scandal broke out? HOw about when the First Gentleman got brickbats due to the World Bank report? She even defended the Alabang Boys to the derision of many radio listeners.

Question—is’nt that her husband now dabbles in public relations? Does this explain why sometimes she takes positions that are, well, rather irrationally siding the main culprits in those teledramatic scandals?

Should the management decide to really make Pinky Webb a regular mainstay at TV Patrol World, ratings are sure to rise even further.

Happy Heart's Day

Happy Valentine's day everyone! It's been forever since the last time I visited this blog. Anyway, yesterday was the first time that I had the time to listen to Radyo Patrol since 2009 started, and I think luck wasn't on my side, as we all know that Miss Pinky Webb was absent yesterday. Sigh. Anyway, I still continued listening to the news as I am quite deprived of the current events these past weeks. Don't get me wrong, I don't tune in to Radyo Patrol just because Pinky is there, I listen for the news, and Pinky Webb is just a bonus.

After the program, just as Alex was signing off he said "Sa ngalan po ni Pinky Webb, na siguradong may date bukas, ito po si Alex Santos". I know I'm shallow, but just with that line I felt giddy and excited for them!

A segue, I just want to say advance happy birthday to dear G (it's on the 20th, but I want to be the first to greet her)!

Happy Heart's Day and Happy Weekend too!

with lots of lovin', K ♥

Their love team/ team-up does really make our mornings "Umagang Kay Ganda"! We hope to see more sweet-kilig moments from them now that they finally revealed their relationship to the public. May they continue to love & be madly inlove with each other...ehehehe HaPpY VaLeNtInE's DaY mS. pInKy & ChAiRmAn! Best wishes...sana matuloy n po ang wedding nyo this year. God bless.

Ms Pinky's guesting in GKNB!

Hey guys, here's the video of Ms Pinky when she & fellow UKG hosts guested in GKNB as part of Chairman Edu Manzano's week-long birthday celebration in the said show which he (Edu) hosts. This was in Sept 2007, Sir Edu's 52nd birthday! Also, some part of the video was from UKG. Well, I do hope you'll enjoy watching...kakakilig! ahahaha! BTW, thank you to Ms Judenella Santos @ multiply.com for sharing this video. Thanks po!

New Year New Header

Hi everyone I know we've been out for quite some time (K and I). But now we're back to business! K already made the new header using the picture you've all suggested it's just that blogger is not feeling well (read as: not working properly) and she wasn't able to upload the header. I also tried uploading it but to no avail.

We need not to worry as it will be up the soonest possible time. (I know our header is so last year).

May we all have a great twenty oh nine!
