In a Nutshell

   

top dog says...

Paradise Isle has persons who are not stereotypes too. It was only last week that the Arrr Mee held its 60th birthday bash at the Bee Em Eye Cee Eitch. Lo and behold the larger than life cut outs one sees were all there sans General Fonny. Questioning the uniformed man in charge why not, he heard that famous phrase never before used on him “Orders from the top.” Hmmmm....he said.  Oh Dear! Oh Dear!

ignorance is bliss

General Fonny has too much time on his hands or so it seems to the Prez. So he was given an additional post. Secy of Games to fill in the balance time. ‘No can do’ said General Fonny. But wait.... that’s not the story. Big House the Ministering type when asked by the journos whether the General was appointed he said “maybe, I dont know. Must check with my ministry”.... Hmmm!

the people’s choice

It was a grand meeting down Galla where the Prez was in attendance. The would be councillors came up the stage when announced to do so and greeted the Prez. It was enfant terrible Nee Shan Tha who received a standing ovation to the consternation of the Prez. By contrast Anar kella was greeted with hoots and whistles. Don’t fret dearie...they were  wolf whistles..... we think 

going, going gone!

With over a century of ministering types its a small miracle that we the lesser paradisians keep our sanity. One of those lesser ministering types visiting the A Port was asked of the health of the bird that flies for paradise...Sreelankan. ‘Is it a going concern?’ asked the common man. ‘Going? Going concern?’ shouted the minister.Then pointing to a bird that is SreeLankan taking off he yelled, ‘There, there can you see? Going, Going concern, Huh?’
