Hi Simon,

Sana maging available din itong "Dos for Dos" at "Matimbang pa sa Dugo" ng idolo nating si FPJ sa shop mo. Ang hirap kasi Simon sana maaga na lang akong pinanganak. Sana pinanganak na ako nung early 60s para napanuod ko itong mga pelikulang ito. 70's baby kasi ako eh. Buti na lang may isang katulad mo na bumubuhay sa legacy ni idol fpj at sa pelikulang pilipino. I really missed my idol fpj very very much!

Simon, correction pala hindi "Matimbang pa sa Dugo" kundi "Matimbang ang Dugo sa Tubig".

Roland said...

Simon, one more request pala. I don't know if you read my request that I emailed to you this week. Mayron ka bang natatagong SMB commercials ni idol fpj before? Pa-feature naman sa youtube... thanks.

Maraming salamat, Roland! Sorry, I don't have a copy of any of FPJ-SMB commercials. Btw,those SMB commmercials were partly shown in Alay ni Da King Documentary Special several months back.

Yes Simon, it was partly shown sa "Alay ni Daking" last December. May nag-post daw dati sa youtube nitong FPJ-SMB TV Ads si Adman1909. Sya yung mahilig mag post sa youtube ng mga classic Tv ads. Imagine meron pa syang naipost na mga 70s commercials. Pero, for unknown reason na-erased daw sa youtube. Nalaman ko ito sa isang ka-group natin sa susanroces yahoogroup.
