Prologue
Fung-wong was animated at Micronesia's Chuuk State.
A frankenstein storm stitched with bits and pieces of warm sea surface, unstable air, wind shear, hot towers, and atmospheric convection; rapidly intensifying into a beast as it approached Dinalungan.
Power went down, the internet fled as Uwan passed through.
Two weekly meetings besieged but the spotty bandwidth, through the intercession of the saints, failed to hinder the Norwegian Initiative, and the initiation of the Vientiane Conference and Bali Workshop.
St. Joseph the Worker's Hotcakes and Sausage
A carpenter and the foster father of Christ, St. Joseph intercedes in behalf of all workers --- be it those that installed renewable energy models in Cambodia as cased, or a crew of McDonalds' Speedee Service System who prepared a hotcake-and-sausage breakfast offering in the absence of challah bread and kosher meat.
The Phantom Biker indulged in behalf of the saint, deployimg invitations for the Vientiane Conference afterwards and finalizing a list of participants to the Bali Workshop as a Manila Meeting take shape, enough justification for three bottles of beer to close the day.
Mary, Help of Christians' Beef Mami and Chunky Asado Siopao
Mary is of course the wife of St. Joseph, the mother of Jesus, champion of Christians inlcuding those confronted with top-up matters, an impending Regional Convening, and a field visit in the Philippines.
Following a fast food format for a Filipino-Chinese menu, the Phantom Biker signed the Articles of Incorporation, not for Chowking but for the Manila Meeting, not for invitees to the Vientiane Conference but a siopao dipped in a bowl of beef mami, and for Mary whose help will ensure an outstanding outcome.
St. Jerome's Breakfast Hotdog
St. Jerome probably interceded in translating the Vientiane Conference as secured, the Manila Meeting as signed off, the Regional Convening as initiated, and perhaps the transformation of American fast food into Filipino casual fare.
This was revealed to the Phantom Biker's as he broke through the uncertainty of a heavy mist into the saint's unfinished sanctuary to patronize Jollibee's oily breakfast hotdog, a veneration that escalated into an unscheduled bout with estofado and beer.
San Sebastian Martyr's Palabok and Extra Creamy Halo-Halo
Arrowed then clubbed, San Sebastian, the patron saint of Munoz, was martyred after confronting an inquitous Roman emperor.
At nearby Mang Inasal, deserted tables betrayed the chicken inasal and unli-rice with palabok and extra creamy halo-halo, an odd breakfast fare, almost strange like why the restoration of a bicycle and a motorbike also solved the riddle of the untransactionable ATM card during the last of Bulan's post-graduate comprehensive examination.
Epilogue
Typhoons are immortal with Fung-Wong/Uwan as the 26th reincaranation of the current year.
We are mortals, vulnerable to calamities and afflictions, believers of the faith, devotees of St. Rose of Lima, the designated patron of the Philippines whose intercession was sought to save the country from the faithful blind herded at the Luneta, and her protection implored to shield us from the vulnerabilities of humanity.
A Bosch Evolution Fanfaren Car was installed, gentle yet loud enough to trigger a jiggle for a shovelful of cajun-style mixed seafood lunch in Cabanatuan.
