Palankitas was a good bowler, and a good man. He was one of us. He was a man who loved the outdoors... and bowling, and as a surfer he explored the beaches of PH, from Forito to Palafito and... up to... Troncs. He died, like so many young men of his generation, he died before his time. In your wisdom, Lord, you took him, as you took so many bright flowering young men at Khe Sanh, at Langdok, at Hill 364. These young men gave their lives. And so would Chuck. Chuck, who loved bowling. And so, Palahnuik Richard III aka Palankitas, in accordance with what we think your dying wishes might well have been, we commit your final mortal remains to the bosom of the PH Ocean, which you loved so well. Good night, sweet prince.
