NUTSHELL

Springing Leaks

The Pee Em has had little support from the armed ones as far as the powwows with the striped kind is concerned. Recently, Ra-kneel was heard complaining that many of the leaks on matters marine have been from none other than the chief himself. Determined to prove a point as far as waters surrounding Paradise is concerned, the bearded kind are not only waging war with their striped counterparts, but also bent on releasing secrets that are privy only to the chief of the mariners. And now a little bird whispers that Satellite has also jumped the band wagon much to Ra-kneels ire.

Strings Attached

Guzzling the stuff that cheers is nothing new for Mallo. At a recent do at a former deputising angel’s abode, Mallo was so happy he didn’t even notice the cross stitch in his trousers had managed to unzip his pants.

Dropping the string hoppers on the floor as he ate, Mallo was oblivious to the giggles around him as he ate and drank with nary a care in the world — dropping indiappa into the revealing gap as well in the process.

Sis Satellite was also in attendance and was soon on the floor, tripping the light fantastic to a baila beat — her acting skills to the fore she twirled and giggled as her subjects clapped to tune. But it was Mallo who took the noodle with his no strings attached show. Hoo!

Fixed Machine

Rewards were the order of the day for some opposing types for bringing in the most number of yakkos for the jana bala meheyuma. The prizes however were not all received with glee. Janaka T from Dambulla bagged the first, winning an overseas trip. The second, a computer went to Berty from Anuradhapura way while the last was to Katana-pulle who won a fax machine.

Pulle who has been sidelined lately was non too pleased with small mercies and returned the gadget saying he had a better one at the Royal abode back in Katana.  Good show man, good show.

Jumping The Bandwagon

Satellite recently winged her way to the land of the Injuns, hoping to lobby support for her war for peace campaign. Uncle Vajpayee however was not interested, dodging the issue much to Satty’s dismay.

Addressing the pouting Satellite, Uncle Vaj ducked the issue citing America’s war in Iraq as being of greater consequence than little Lanka’s fragile peace process.

Now Satellite has become a champion on talking to the Tigers, much to the chagrin of the Reds. Hmmm...

SMS And Love Lines

If anything blossoms within the UNF, it’s romance and the recent record of the love struck legislators proves this in ample measure.

The love struck dame with a Moon-like face is carrying her late Rajarata father’s mantle. She was busy mooning over the love of her life when the governing types met for a singsong to celebrate Labour Day at the New Town Hall. The lover is no less than a pint-sized people’s representative from a Maduwa of ill fame due to the political violence during the Pee A regime. The romance however is high tech and blossoming.

Their labour of love at the UNP’s May Day tamasha was watched with amusement as they furiously sent text messages from their mobile phones, calling each other every now and then, oblivious to the presence of the better half. Guess new flowers bloom under the moon of love, eh!

Food For Thought

Satellite is a firm believer that a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach and recently while in ole Blighty, she hosted a party for the Reds and invited the self exiled leader, Soma the Amara-lion. Satellite is desperate to make it back with the support of the Reds and the small matter of wooing the killers of her hubby is no big deal it seems. That sure is food for thought for the kiddos what!
