The Facebook page of ANC 24/7 is asking for its reader's suggestion on how to solve Metro Manila's traffic problem.

A woman was in town on a shopping trip

A woman was in town on a shopping trip. She began her day finding the most perfect shoes in the first shop and a beautiful dress on sale in the second.

She ended up shopping the rest of the morning, finishing her trip with a cup of coffee and a beautiful chocolate cake slice, compliments of the last shop. She was jubilant.

Then she remembered her husband. Feeling guilty, she dashed to the hospital.

She saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about her husband’s condition.
The lady doctor glared at her and shouted, 'You went ahead and finished your shopping trip didn’t you! I hope you’re proud of yourself!

And he will now be your career!'

The woman broke down and sobbed.

The lady doctor then chuckled and said, 'I’m just pulling your leg. He’s dead. Show me what you bought.'
