A Soca Worrier?
That is what they are calling the London-based wife of the darling of the football team. Seems as though this Warrior is using his prowess as national “player” to the full context.
Talk is that the wife and mother of his child has not benefited from the recent contract. Instead, she has taken to a little private investigation of her own (a non-paying job) where she saw the man going to a pharmacy with the pregnant girlfriend, not too far from home where he does not really live anymore.
My friend in foreign says wife is seeing red, but she really wish she could see a little paper with the queen looking back at her. They say she could soon suffer the loss of car and even house!
Hey, Mr. DJ? Ah wonder if…
People always saying that among the most illiterate sounding group are some of our radio personalities. Now, these announcers’ conduct is exposing them as just that – illiterate. My friends called me to tune into a programme and I was royally embarrassed by the ranting of a DJ. They’re saying he’s blessed with three kidneys – left, right and one where his brain should be.
So, they asked me to give some free legal advice, Sir. Either you read a little more or you should turn down the music so you could hear a little better. The people are not strong-arming you, Sir. There is a little thing in the laws of Trinidad and Tobago which gives them the power. And, then too, the people music you say you pushing, is them self who bestow the authority on the organization to charge you the tariff!
So, hey Mr. DJ, Sir, ah wonder if you would just pay and play; or pray (you win) and then lose and have to pay?
VIP – Very Impatient Patron?
So let’s start with the fact that people were grumbling about how they do not feel like VIP if you make them sit on the steps for three hours after announcing that gates would open at 6:00 p.m. They asking, too, how come so many people got locked in by badly-parked vehicles? Should they have paid another $450 all-inclusive with security? But they asked me to write and say “Great show, good food”!
More Back 2 Back bacchanal?
This very sober-minded friend of mine (at least on a Monday) said that is nearly $2 million invested in the postponed show. You believe that? It sounds like pure gossip to me. Now, all of town watching to see how things will pan out!
And, on the issue of pan, my relatives down South are saying they not going to Skinner Park. They saying that it took a tragedy of mismanagement to bring the show to South and, after all those years of unfair judging, finally this year they bring fair judges!
They say too, since the days of Guinness Cavaliers, South bands have been fighting to impress the judges in order to come to town for Panorama finals and then in 2007, is “Dust in Dey Face”, they not even deemed good enough to go to their own venue. I’m hearing talk about boycott but you know us, we forgetting all that by Saturday midday!
Further south, you hear how the 200 or so residents of the affluent community laugh out loud when the police say they will protect them? I hear it was like a moment from them comedy shows when, under the barrel from a resident who contributed some potent comments and fired some pertinent questions, making the officers look impotent, the naïve-sounding ASP blurted out: “The police would protect you” and the residents cocked back and rolled with laughter.
