Pepper Pot
COKE... wanted by US authorities
News
BY EVA-JEAN  
May 27, 2010

Pepper Pot

Mr Big, where are you?

Word from those close to the inside is that there is a job to be done and there’s no stopping until it’s finished. The young, many of them illiterate, males firing the shots for ‘Dudus’, did not order expensive, sophisticated guns and ammunition from big US suppliers, ship them in, clear Customs or wherever

and organise their islandwide distribution. Mr Big, where are you?

Wrong sport

Talk is that industrial espionage is a popular sport these days. Some feel it’s even part of a plan to undermine. Pity the self-acclaimed master is no good, even as an apprentice, though he’s claiming bang for buck.

Six is the new unlucky number

For many, 13 is an unlucky number, so too is the 13th floor. But for others it was on the 6th floor that they got caught out of luck. Better off at the pitch with that cold lager, some still say.

A ‘Dudus’ mystery

Question of the week: Why would three officers of the law show up on their own at that hotel, claiming that they’re looking for ‘Dudus’? The world knows that both army and police have been hunting him down. Something smells a little funny about that, doesn’t it?

Whew! A friend in need?

In the midst of all the mayhem, confusion and gunfire, the US State Department for sure is a friend indeed, ’cause don’t ask if Bruce Golding wasn’t in need of a good friend this week. People hope that actions will continue to speak louder than words.

More than she bargained for?

A certain representative in the Big Apple is said to be unravelling in mind, body and spirit over the state of affairs at home. All of a sudden the position’s not so fancy as the outspoken one has come under mounting pressure to explain. People say that’s just a taste of what’s also in store for our rep in DC.
