In A Nutshell

Love your enemies, indeed!

Remember the time when war heroes were praised and the war prisoners were punished? Well, gone are those times, because in the times of the great king, enemies are now our friends. Once a ferocious tiger has now turned into a purring pussycat and is the King’s latest pet. This is none other than Kay Pee.  Banana-liya is apparently his best buddy and is heavily praising him while the one time Army chief sits in jail. Who knows? This may be a part of the King’s reconciliation plan just like the lessons learnt commission. Tsk! Tsk!

Let them spray mortein!
The mossies have been buzzing some serious damage. Thousands have been affected by dengue, island wide, while in Colombo itself, four have died during this month alone. King Ma-hinder came out with a classic statement last week when he said people should not depend on the government for everything and must work to overcome dengue. Whom the governing types plan to serve is evident with this comment. So there! Bally cheek!

Give the dog a bone
The King’s allies are royally put-out it seems. No, no, not because of corruption and the lack of development in the country, but only because he’s holding talks with the opposing parties. The King might just have to dish out some jewels to keep them quiet as usual. A few more positions maybe? Or a few more Monteros and a Hummer thrown in here and there for good measure eh? Hmmm…

The UNP in flames

Ra-kneel has been constantly sinning since of late and has yet another sin to be added to his list: the immolation of Algama. He’s been immolated for a party beyond redemption. Sad no? Haiyo Ra-kneel! Founder fathers must be turning in their graves.

The winner takes it all
Apparently, the journo awards ceremony didn’t bring a smile to everyone’s faces. Many were not happy about how some received awards while others who ‘deserved’ it went home empty handed or with only a kola-kella. One issue was related to an oldie who’s won an award for being an exceptional war-reporter while residing outside of the country! While we are at it, we’d also like to say that we were robbed of our rightful ‘scoop’ award. Then again, usual scene no?

By the sea, by the beautiful sea…
So everyone’s heard about how MR hopes to have sessions for his MP types. Well, the latest ‘workshop’ will be held down South, by the sea. In Bentota, to be precise. While the big shots relax by the seaside, sipping margaritas and enjoying the sea breeze, the poor masses based in the South might end up not paying their weekly visits to see their loved ones during that weekend, due to roads being closed etc. Oh well, at least those in Bentota will feel proud that their area is being graced by the big shots no? Hic!
