Fitial is the new BB!

Forget "Better Times."

BT (for Ben & Tim) exists no longer, at least as far as Palau President Tommy Remengasau is concerned.

Remengasau, in his remarks at the closing of the Western Micronesian Chief Executives Summit this morning, gave the CNMI governor a new nickname. Gov. Benigno R. Fitial shall now be known as “BB”—or Bionic Ben—in reference to the metal put in the governor’s spine during his recent operations.

The joke got some laughs, but I'm not sure if Fitial thought it was funny.

I wonder what John Babauta and friends will say about this.
