Something extra

The weekend was simply full of fun from Caymanas Golf Club to Devon House.

The hottest topics on the cocktail circuit

Dismayed friends

1. Friends and supporters of the fugitive were dismayed to learn that there is no moratorium on indictments by the United States State Department, as a peek at the Justice Department website confirmed.

No truth?

2. With each passing day and with each new witness, concern is mounting that the tragedy of the 'Commission' is that when it is all said and done, the truth will be the major casualty!

Old timers

3. Quote of the Week: "Just goes to show what old timers used to say, 'Yuh can't bathe and powder hog, as them still a go wallow in a mud and grunt'."

Political rich

4. There is a new list of political multi-millionaires doing the rounds and it makes for interesting reading, as quite a number of people who were seemingly paupers only very recently, seemed to have hit the jackpot!

Party in decline

5. Some insiders are expressing concern that the party seems to be imploding in public. They cite the recent "offensive" by the one minister who demonstrated that "he wanted to take it to them"; the live crass public comments by another member and his vile follow-up; and the less than award-winning performance of high-ranking party members at the enquiry, is all indicative of a party in decline.

Debasing the institution

6. Some members of civil society are appalled that those at the place of supposed higher learning continue to debase the institution by pandering to the baser instincts of some members of the society by providing a platform to further propagate their ignorance!
