Maning fires back

I suspect that if Maning Guanzon weren't an architect, he would have been in a profession that involved the use of his mouth (and his legendary temper) instead. He has the talent for coming up with the most quotable quotes, especially in response to the most ridiculous claims.

In response to the accusation of former Senator Sonny Osmena that the pieces of structural steel used at the CICC were leftovers from the South Reclamation Project, I remember he said: "Sus, Ginoo, intawn. Wa ma'y structural steel didto!"

Yesterday, to the claim of the Fire Marshall of Mandaue City that the fire sprinklers didn't work (without even asking for a demonstration of the sprinkler system), he fired back: "Dili man na mogana kung tan-awon lang. Dubduban na ug kayo, di kay siga-an sa mata."

Haha. So there you are. A fire sprinkler system wouldn't work if you just glare at it. Even, it would seem, if you had fire in your eyes like Maning Guanzon does.
