Thursdaytalk - HOTTEST TOPICS ON THE COCKTAIL CIRCUIT
published: Thursday | May 15, 2008

Dragged kicking, screaming

1. Some of his colleagues are not too pleased with his recent utterances. They are saying it seems that since he was dragged kicking and screaming trying to justify his own matter and lost, now he is behaving like the convert and trying to embarrass them by seeking to draw them out.

Memoirs, not well received by some

2.The 'Memoirs' have not been well received in some quarters at all! Some are upset that it seems to be both 'dissing' and disinterring the memory of one of the nation's favourite sons.

Email amusement

3.People are laughing their heads off in amusement at the irony of it all as they are saying how funny it is that the accusations and nasty comments contained in the hate-mail resemble those making them!

Puppet-masters

4.The political puppet-masters had demanded that he not be appointed, but political expedience brought on by numbers, prevented him from being not so appointed. His illness, however, provided the perfect cover to reassign him.

Citizenship speed

5.Some in political circles are questioning the speed with which the recent citizenship issue was dealt with by the embassy.

What's up with the high-profile one?

6.The one-time high-profile north-coast pharmacologist seems to have gone underground. Some are wondering why?

Should there be a probe?

7.The goodly doctor of email notoriety has raised some poignant questions about the role of a certain individual in the building scandal. The assertion needs some explanation, or, as some are quietly asking, for an investigation.

Some cringing

8.People are still talking about the "performance" at the big concert the other day. Some are even still cringing!

Support for investment

9.How does Jamaica benefit when we disparage foreign or local investments?

Stop it!

10. Some are saying the new-found penchant by some for hopping on the private aeroplanes of private-sector people in the region needs to be curtailed before the innocent get caught up in international investigations.
