Mobile ban and practice

An Ed of a Sinhala daily wanted to check whether the top Elephants practise what they preach. On the day the Green Party asked mobile subscribers to knock their phones off and protest against a government levy, he called on their mobiles. Atta-Leader, Sun Kind-Leader, Lucky Milk-Fall, Doc Jay Jay and Aaa-Killer promptly answered their mobiles!

Wedding Sam runs away

Wedding Sam's plan to sling mud on the day Can't-Sil entered the House of Diyawanna boomeranged. When his former colleagues exposed the notorious happy and gay times of the bachelor boy, Wedding Sam could not find a place to hide.

Doc Jay Jay's dual role

Doc Jay Jay is a well-known 'double wicket' player - he tells one thing in the Wanni and another to people here. He played another dual role last week. After the Elephant Party Em Pees held placards the day Can't-Sil took oaths, Doc Jay Jay was the first to call the new Em Pee and wish him.

Until he turns blue

Astrologers have told Es Bee that his stars would be stronger after November. His friends have told him that it could be due to two reasons - weakening of the Wedding Sam factor after his failure to secure a single Em Pee out of the promised 18 or else due to a cross over if he turns blue!

No deadlines

Toddy-Jitha met Vaj Abey at the Lobby and asked what their new deadline to topple the G-ment is. "We have not set time frames," Ra-Blue's blue-eyed boy said. But Toddy-Jitha reminded Vaj Abey that Sun Kind-Leader has repeatedly said that they would form a G-ment after the Budget.

Back to basics

Has Ra-Blue gone back to the Montessori level after all his dreams of toppling the G-ment have failed? Last week, he was seen at the village weekly pola at Melsiripura, distributing leaflets. "Poor guy, he is preparing for his 15th defeat," an onlooker said.
