Carlos Celdran – Ang Totoong ‘Lodi’.
On March 2008 I wrote how amazed I was at Carlos Celdran but I was one of those lazy people who couldn’t lift their asses long enough to join his tour. He found my blog post and answered with this: I joined his terrific Imelda tour and met him. I met him a few more…
