You teach dem 'ten bottles of beer' yet ? 

There is 'Red Robin' ?? poem I used to know.

Rass, dis gray matta getting slow, but me half white, can you tell de difference ? 

Gil, do you eat a lot of karila and does it help ?  

Help wid wha bai?

I eat a lot of fish because it's good for my ailing heart and clogged up arteries. On top of that I take the following daily:

Omega-3

Vitamin D

Vitamin B12

Vitamin C

Karila bitter; me nah like um. Me prefer bora arr pumpkin.

Gil,

In politics, timing is important. Let us take off our political hats for a moment here.

Let us assume that the PNC feels that the ministers should be paid more, why not wait after local elections ?

PPP will now milk this issue, rightfully or wrongfully to their advantage.

Did you read Harmon's arrogant endorsement and defence of these increases ?

Interesting times ahead as APNU insulted hardworking taxpayers.

the breadth of yugee's confusion and level of stupid on display here is absolutely spectacular

What yuji doesn't yet get is that Jagdeo cannot accept a salary as Leader of the Opposition, pay increase or no pay increase. Since the PPP returned to parliament 31 MPs collected regular pay but Jagdeo could not.

Gil

If you read my post carefully, you will see that is exactly what I was saying in a round about way.

Jagdeo cannot collect from both sides. His pension takes priority.

Guys - You need to respect the views of a newcomer. Bibi - welcome to GNI.  Bibi seems to be engaging in some great conversations and she is entitled to her opinion so stop the personal attacks.

Pay increase for MPs, not good for government at time of local elections.

Jagdeo not accepting MP pay is a plus for the PPP with voters. Jagdeo aiming fa de bigga fish.

Indian following without question, regarding PPP corruption is another plus for the PPP.

The government better start campaigning for LE or they might lose big time. They seem to be getting too complacent.      

Thanks for the welcome.  And not to worry, the personal attacks emerge when there is much frustration because of lack of knowledge.  Where ignorance is bliss tis folly to be wise.

Bibi, me have friend  in TO who is the chief executive officer of an international development agency. She and other women  were instrumental  in  adding women rights issues to the Canadian constitution in 1982. 

In the 60s she said they burned their bra for women rights.

What do you think of doing the same, it worked for them.  

This is not a degrading question, some men needs a big hammer pan dem head.    

Tola, I hear you gaffa boil Karila in salted water to remove the bitterness. It supposed to be good for the blood and with that taste possibly liver.

Doan ask me how long to boil it, possibly about a week rass.

...................................................................................

Thanks Cain, me know Karlia was good fa something.

Me tink Gil need it mo dan me.

Me gun taste it afta every  hour of boiling, wid salt.  

Rass you sound like ah drug store.  Me also do VD, that's vitamin D.

How do you cook karlia. Our stores start stocking bora, bygan, ochro and Karlia.  We tried it in ah stir fry and was bitter, how do you take off the bitterness. Ask de lady na. Dis lady hea is Canadian and rely on me expertise, which I don't have.

Me question was, karlia must be good for something, what ?

Before  leaving GY, me asked me late sista Elaine to teach me to cook. At the airport, she said bai you head too hard, you might starve.  

Tola,

While I do not agree with everything that you posted, you are bang with your most of your analysis.

Many seems to forget that only ONE percent of votes separated the PPP and APNU at the General Election.

The tide that swept them (APNU)  to a very thin majority does not appear to be there. Time will tell but the timing of this pay increase is beyond comprehension.

Let the electorate decide.

On another note, you keep wondering about the loyalty to the PPP, but many will not forget what the PNC did to them and I do not want to repeat it for now.

The racial divide in Guyana will end with another uniter like Walter Rodney but I have not seen one like him as of yet. Burhman and Jagan were both uneasy about the rise of Walter Rodney.

The political divide will continue for another 25 years until the electorate finally gets fed up.

Tola, I'm not fond of karila but it doesn't mean I don't eat it. If you cut the karila up to fry, soak in some salt water and squeeze. Throw away the bitter salt water and fry/saute. Others may have other methods.

Thanks Gil, me gun try. If you hear a big halla, de Canadian woman like, but she like adda things betta.

What,mauby?
