Fun Facts About the UNO Staff, Part 1

Posted by Luis Katigbak at June 12th, 2009

1. During one overnight editing/writing session at the office, Contributing Editor Mihk Vergara demonstrated his heretofore secret ability to turn his head 270 degrees around, like an owl. Unfortunately he threw up a lot afterwards and had to be rushed to the hospital.

2. Editorial Assistant extraordinaire France Pinzon is not named after France the geographical location. Rather, she is France, the corporeal form of the essence of an entire country. She took human form to learn more about people, and migrated here after she realized she didn’t like the people in France so much. She spends her spare time scoffing at tourist guides that “get me all wrong.”

3. Creative Director Juan Caguicla was raised in the wild by a roaming pack of savage tattoo artists. One day, after his pack suffered a vicious raid by their mortal enemies, a gang of bloodthirsty photographers, he found an abandoned Rolleiflex 2.8F TLR. Though he knew it was forbidden, he could not resist figuring out how to use the implement and soon spent many a day testing its limits. When his treachery was discovered, his full-body tattoo rite of manhood was cancelled (to this day, one arm is almost completely bare), and he was banished from his pack. Now he is an outcast from both tribes, who uses his powers for the good of all.
