Wake up and smell the Flower
And Die-Hard Siri Bag was on a TV programme early this week shouting about Wee-Flower’s election slogan. “Chandayata vote ekak denna? Katta-ta ekak denna thiyanawa!” Die-Hard said amongst much genteel titters. Speaking of Wee-Flower, he seems to have taken over the Presidential role. Apart from telling people a vote for [...]
LEAP-FROG
With elections coming up everyone is leapfrogging from one side to another. This can lead to some awkward situations.
On Tuesday our lovely em-pees met to discuss whether or not there was an emergency. Josie Posie Perera took front and centre and speaking to former fellow party member Big Banda said “It’s nice to be back [...]
LOOK SHARP, NOW!
Our dear friend, Run-jan is a man of many talents. He is actor and director extraodinaire. So it’s not a big surprise that he would want to dispense some pearls of wisdom to the uninitiated on his oh-so flashy website. And here is a little known fact he thought we should know. “From [...]
Be Prepared
Our erstwhile friend Raja-Hitha Senaratne recently announced his confidence that the Government would get a 2/3rd majority. What’s more, he had a back-up plan. “Even if we don’t get the majority, we will persuade some of those Green Team fellows to cross-over and get the numbers,” he said. In fact, he said he had [...]
GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD
And the saga continues. Fonny-Boy continues to holiday at our friendly detention centre. He continues to think everyone is out to get him, too.
His poor wifey Anoma has to traipse up and down twice a day. Why? Well, a little birdy says Fonny is convinced the prison authorities want [...]
Trishaw Mafia
Everyone is in a mighty dither now that our darling Fonny Boy is behind bars. So on Tuesday after his arrest there was a meeting. And of course our em-pees came screeching up in their Defender Jeeps with 10 bodyguards in tow in case our illustrious police force came to drag another of them [...]
Acceptance is the first step!
So all the Swan fellows swooped down to Hyde in a park. Where they made the most colossal fuss about the election. But the highlight as always was Fonny Boy, who declared to all and sundry, “I am the People’s President, and I won’t hesitate to say it!” Subsequently, he told [...]
Fairytales!
So now the race is over and our beloved Mahin-deer emerged triumphant. He must be pleased as punch with his 58% majority, no? But our dear Mangy had a different take on the numbers. In an interview with this rag he compared the majority to the 1933 elections in Germany. When benevolent dictator Hitler claimed [...]
A picture speaks a thousand words!
So our Benevolent Leader descended upon us English and Tamil weekend rags in Kandy. And one very wild ass pointed an accusing finger at the Prez, saying his party was rampaging through the island laying waste to the land. He even brought up the killing of a 60 year old [...]
Total Eclipse of the Heart
A little bird whispered that the Presidential sibling we all know and love suffered a stoppage of the heart. And so he tripped gaily overseas, only to be told that his old ticker was working just fine. No, the problem darlings… was a itsy bitsy little stone in his kidneys! Perhaps, [...]
