About to walk the talk?

It’s one thing for an appointed one to quietly disagree with the pronouncements of the team. But the lunch date with an across-the-floor counterpart has people wondering if someone’s getting ready to take a walk.

The secret’s out

Seems the secret meeting has become the big talk of the town. Word is the allies went MIA (missing in action), and convened just North of The Rock to collaborate on their common bellyaches. Some say they suffer from an incurable case of chronic envy that’s now turned green. Too bad, ’cause the plot has been leaked and even insiders can’t help but chuckle. Someone should have mentioned that putting up shop right beside the competition didn’t work in purple, so chances are it won’t work in any other colour.

From unda wi nose

People are saying it appears American lawyers are angling to snatch the American Airlines crash case away from our local lawyers. Knowing that there’s money to be made, the experienced Americans can teach their Jamaican counterparts a thing or two about going after such cases. One to watch, we say.

Backyard mass

People are talking about the impressive tent in the backyard, chandeliers and all. No, it wasn’t for a festive shindig; they say it was for mass. Well-attended too. The question is, why not just go to church? Who’s keeping the low profile, flock or the frock?

If only there was another…

People everywhere are reminiscing about the Butch Stewart, Save-the-dollar Initiative of the 1990s, like it was yesterday. There’s a whole lot of speculation about who will be next to champion a cause that’s as selfless and benefits the entire nation.

Tax talk

Word is the most popular sayings for the New Year are “I’ll be your friend if you pay my tax”, and “A friend in tax is a friend in facts”, get it?
