As far as I know this is original.  I made this up with a few friends while
in a bar in the middle of nowhere cut off from the rest of civilization.

I heard recently that no Filipino saints have ever been selected and feel
this is a wrong that must be righted.  I know of at least one Filipino 
who has passed the criteria for sainthood (performing three miracles), 
Ferdinand Marcos.  The miracles he performed are:

	1) He took millions, possibly billions of dollars out of one of the 
		world's poorer nations.
	2) He stayed married to Imelda for over 30 years.
	3) He died of natural causes.
