Personal album

Boggles is a man who lives it up, global recession or otherwise. The man printed a colorful diary for the year that is new having asked staff to slash expenses. And so he gave good reason this season for the diplo-mutts to laugh. His diary was a complete show of vanity complete with 22 of his photographs in all his sartorial elegance, all at state expense of course. Hee!Hee!

NPM cash

When the scam over the Key that is Golden hit the headlines, among the petrified depositors climbing walls to get their money back was a monk well known for his racial rhetoric as the force behind the movement that is patriotic. Discarding the vinaya rules and joining the desperate queue was none other than Gunawansa Thero of Elle fame. Aha!

Vinaya flouted

If monks are not meant to deal with cash, the patriotic thero was not the only desperate saffron clad soul. There was also the monk MP of JHU fame, the controversial Nanda Thero from Udawatte who was also checking how safe his cash was, vinaya rules notwithstanding. Way to go for the Dharmarajya what!

Outcast

Baa-sil the all powerful Presidential sibling was in the city of Lost Angels recently. The man who is used to having his own way in Colombo was seen sulking profusely when a request to meet up with the secretary that is general at the UN Ban Ki-Moon was swiftly turned down. Sin no! 

Petty games

There was the new presidentate from the South Asian coral islands, young Nasheed making a quick visit to Paradise isle on the Presidente's invite. He wanted to meet the opposing leader Ra-kneel with whom he goes a long way back, but the Ministry that is Foreign made sure that an appointment was not made anyway. Shame no!

Smarting
