Two security personnel of his have also died in the paintball shootout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The security personnel of Bill Gates have been responsible for the shooting and killing. Steve Jobs had died on the way to the JoyWardNee Pora Hospital due to respiratory arrest caused by a pancreatic tumor which was aggravated by the paintballs lodged in his body .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consequent to the shootout between the two groups, 10 victims have been hospitalized. This tragedy had occurred at about 3.30 pm in the vicinity of She-Ma-Whore Bundy Knacker Vid-Ya-La, Angoda, Noo Yuck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bill Gate’s group had also been shot at by the Steve Jobs group , whereby Bill Gates had sustained serious injuries to his ego . He had been admitted to the JoyWardNee Pora Hospital and is in a critical condition. Hospital sources say, he had been shot in the head, and a ‘Humanitarian Operation’ had been performed on him. JoyWardNee Pora Hospital medical Authority S A K Gummy Bear told the media, the CTC scan done on him had revealed that his head and ego had sustained serious injuries . Bill Gates father had disclosed that Doctors had told him that there is only a 20% chance of Bill Gates recovering to participate in future paintball shootouts and to run his Microsoft Company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile a curfew has been clamped on the police division of Molly-Ya-Wa. The curfew will be on from 4.30 pm today until 6.00am tomorrow. The users of Steve Jobs Apple products who were provoked following the death of Steve Jobs have begun attacking the Molly-Ya-Wa police with i-Phones and i-Pads and they have also set fire to two police computers with Windows operating systems, reports say. Though a curfew was imposed after the attack, the enraged Apple product users had set fire to a Microsoft office of Bill Gates defying the curfew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The National guard had been deployed to provide security to the Molly-Ya-Wa police division. An FBI team had also arrived at the venue to conduct investigations. The CIA are conducting investigations to deduce if this paintball shooting was an ‘International Conspiracy’ to tarnish the image of President Barrack O’Bummer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This dispute between the Steve Jobs Apple Inc and the Bill Gates Microsoft Corporation had been raging for many years. Among the true Apple users there was deep disillusionment that Barrack O’Bummer was turning a blind eye, a deaf ear and a mute mouth to the illegal activities of the Microsoft Corporation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Steve Jobs is survived by Laurene, his wife of 20 years, their three children and by Lisa Brennan-Jobs, his daughter from a previous relationship. His family released a statement saying that he "died peacefully due to respiratory arrest caused by a pancreatic tumor which was aggravated by the paintballs lodged in his body."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-255070995258773837?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/255070995258773837/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2011/10/steve-jobs-dies-in-paintball-shootout.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/255070995258773837'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/255070995258773837'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2011/10/steve-jobs-dies-in-paintball-shootout.html' title='Steve Jobs dies in paintball shootout: Bill Gates security personnel have shot him – Bill Gates also critical and dripping with paint'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WFrei9sEUvM/TpPNDMcbm2I/AAAAAAAACgg/Yok2G2qdCGw/s72-c/Steve%2BJobs%2Band%2BBill%2BGates.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-3654719651018331353</id><published>2011-08-24T15:18:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2011-08-24T15:18:59.186+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Human scars of Sri Lankan war neglected - Asia - Al Jazeera English</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://english.aljazeera.net/video/asia/2011/08/2011821401773917.html#.TlSXvjM3Mak.blogger"&gt;Human scars of Sri Lankan war neglected - Asia - Al Jazeera English&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-3654719651018331353?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://english.aljazeera.net/video/asia/2011/08/2011821401773917.html#.TlSXvjM3Mak.blogger' title='Human scars of Sri Lankan war neglected - Asia - Al Jazeera English'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/3654719651018331353/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2011/08/human-scars-of-sri-lankan-war-neglected.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/3654719651018331353'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/3654719651018331353'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2011/08/human-scars-of-sri-lankan-war-neglected.html' title='Human scars of Sri Lankan war neglected - Asia - Al Jazeera English'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-1725896231242859709</id><published>2011-05-28T15:37:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2011-05-28T15:37:39.787+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about sri lanka cricket'/><title type='text'>Sir NUT Jew Sorrya Plans Comeback After 25 Years In Retirement</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EZXyMdr-khI/TeCXoVIF4HI/AAAAAAAACf8/SeiW90ZZCtw/s1600/sanath.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="384" width="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EZXyMdr-khI/TeCXoVIF4HI/AAAAAAAACf8/SeiW90ZZCtw/s400/sanath.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Former Sri RajaPakistan captain and pinch hitter Sir NUT Jew Sorrya says he wants to return to first-class crooked, 25 years after his forced retirement. The 75-year-old, who was forced to retire through an act of ParleyMutts (118th Amendment to the Constipation) from crooked in 2020, will play club crooked with the aim of earning a recall to the Hum Bug Thotta team.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sir NUT is 1534 runs short of 300,000 first-class runs and said that has played a part in his planned return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“I thought that is an amazing EverestPidurutalagala for me to climb,” said Sir NUT, who played 822 Tests for Sri RajaPakistan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sir NUT, who revealed his desire to return on Kaak Kaak (A subsidiary of Twitter), said the desire to earn oodles and oodles of money  gave him the urge to play crooked again, especially after receiving a text from a bookie revealing how close he was to the 300,000-run mark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“In what is probably a bit of a geriatric crisis I have come up with a solution – I will speak to the PresiDunce and urge him to order the selectors to pick me in the team,” said Sir NUT, who will play for the Hum Bug Thotta - based One Family Crooked Club on his comeback trail. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sir NUT sits second in Sri RajaPakistan’s all-time leading Test run scorers with 300,000 first-class runs with a highest score of 899 and a healthy average of 102.36 (statistics courtesy of the Central Bank of Sri Rajapakistan). The highest run scorer is (no prizes for guessing) PresiDunce Normal RogerProxy with 700,000 runs, at an average of 600.35. Once again, (statistics courtesy of the Central Bank of Sri Rajapakistan).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After 645 first-class games for Hum Bug Thottas, One Family Crooked Club, a persistent brain tumor forced him to retire from the game before undertaking a career as a ParleyMutt.&lt;br /&gt;But Sir NUT believes his head can withstand the rigors of four days in the field.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The head is pretty good, they took out the brain and replaced it with a monkey brain,” he added. Sir NUT – who turns 76 on 22 September, before the start of the Hum Bug Thotta Silly Lunket Shield competition – remains realistic about returning to first-class crooked. Hum Bug Thotta crooked chief executive DunceRaja Proxy has not totally dismissed the notion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“For him to break into that would be a huge challenge, an almost impossible challenge for a 76-year-old, but for Sir NUT and bearing in mind that he is a sycophant of PresiDunce Normal RogerProxy, who knows? Anything is possible in the land of Sri RajaPakistan if you have the blessings of the One Family Dictatorship!” he said.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-1725896231242859709?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/1725896231242859709/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2011/05/sir-nut-jew-sorrya-plans-comeback-after.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/1725896231242859709'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/1725896231242859709'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2011/05/sir-nut-jew-sorrya-plans-comeback-after.html' title='Sir NUT Jew Sorrya Plans Comeback After 25 Years In Retirement'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EZXyMdr-khI/TeCXoVIF4HI/AAAAAAAACf8/SeiW90ZZCtw/s72-c/sanath.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-1775656994482072015</id><published>2011-05-18T15:43:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2011-05-18T15:43:20.210+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='about cricket in sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dictatorship in Sri Lanka'/><title type='text'>Sri Rajapakistan launches own T56 league</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JdaHaTuLQHo/TdNqPEVT3kI/AAAAAAAACf0/BOrdLNHAzR4/s1600/Sri%2BRajapakistan%2BPremier%2BLeague.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="387" width="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JdaHaTuLQHo/TdNqPEVT3kI/AAAAAAAACf0/BOrdLNHAzR4/s400/Sri%2BRajapakistan%2BPremier%2BLeague.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sri Rajapakistan’s crooked board on Thursday announced its own glitzy T56 tournament, seeking to emulate the success of the hugely popular Indian Premier League.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first edition of the Sri Rajapakistan Premier League (SRPL) will be played over 365 days from July 19th 2011 to July 19th 2012 and will feature teams from the island’s seven provinces and big international stars, according to a statement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“T56’s massive popularity and status as the most exciting and entertaining format of crooked will be further enhanced by this newest tournament to the world of crooked,” read a Sri Rajapakistan Crooked statement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While SRC kept mum (pronounced dumb) on the infamous despots likely to take part, local bought - and - paid - for - media named the likes of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad , Muhammad al-Gaddafi, Robert Mugabe, Fidel Castro, Kim Jong-Il, Hu Jintao and Omar al-Bashir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The teams will play each other 25 times, with the top four qualifying for the sham-finals. The winner of the tournament will be decided through a “Computer Jilmart,” and will automatically qualify for the Chumps League Twenty20, which is jointly promoted by the boards of India and South Africa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the SRPL games will be day-night encounters and played at Hum Bug Thotta’s Sri Rajapakistan Stadium. Each squad can have a maximum of five tin-pot dictators or despots but the starting XI can have only four of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, in contrast to IPL’s high-profile auctions for players, the tin-pot dictators and despots will be assigned to hunter-killer teams by the Sri Rajapakistan One Family Dictatorship Selection Committee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The seven teams are Basnahira Boothayaas, Kandurata Kabaragoyas, Nagenahira Nazaraaniyaas, Ruhuna Rajapakayas, Uthura Oooroomeeyaas, Uva Umbalakadayaas and Wayamba White Vans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The league will be run by the Libyan-based Dumbugga Entertainment, who have bought the rights for 2500 years. The global television rights for the 365 matches have already been sold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SRPL could come as a particular blessing for Talaiban and Al Qaeda players.

With 1 million family members, hangers-on, sycophants and assorted henchmen packed into Hum-Bug-Thotta Abbey, an estimated 10 million lining the streets of Hum-Bug-Thotta and with millions more watching on television, the eyes of the universe were on the couple as they exchanged their vows. Prince Namal Jilmart will take up the title Duke of Hum-Bug-Thotta and Anarkali Middleton will become Her Pea-Brained Highness the Duchess of Hum-Bug-Thotta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was a plethora of famous names who witnessed the wedding, from the Supreme Leader of the Klinglon Empire, Captain Kirk of the Star Ship Enterprise to former England football captain David Beckham and his Klinglon born wife Victoria Beckham. Prince Namal Jilmart chose to wear a military uniform in place of the usual “kapati kit” to the wedding and Miss Anarkali Middleton managed the unenviable task of keeping her wedding dress a secret. She wore an ivory and poplin gown designed by the House of Fashion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Around 1 million family members, hangers-on, sycophants and assorted henchmen were invited back to the Hotel de Temple Palace for a buffet lunch and then 300 plus close family members were invited for the black tie dinner consisting of kurakan and kola kenda. There were fears that the event could be marred by international conspiracies to tarnish the image of the country. However the predicted international conspiracies never materialised. Thousands of party supporters were given a bath packet, a soft drink bottle and 500 rupees and made to line the streets to cheer the newlywed couple. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The happy couple will honeymoon in Burma and spend 2 weeks in Libya at the invitation of Colonel Gaddafi.

The only thing he was missing after La Shit Malinger retired was a good fast bowler. He had scouted all around the country, but he couldn't find a bowler who could ensure a World Cup win.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then one night, while watching BooBee She, he saw a war-zone scene in JewMany. In one corner of the background, he spotted a young Jewman soldier with an incredible arm. He threw a hand grenade straight into a 15th-story window 200 yards away -- ka-boom! He threw another hand grenade into a group of 10 soldiers 100 yards away -- ka-ba-ka-ba-boom! Then a car passed, going 90 mph -- bulls-eye!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I've got to get this guy!" Coach Normal Rogerproxy said to himself. "He has the perfect arm!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, he brings him to Sri RajaPakistan and teaches him the great game of crooked, and the Sri RajaPakistani Crooked team go on to win their 2nd World Cup after 25 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The young Jewman is feted as the Great Hero of Sri RajaPakistani Crooked, and when Coach Normal Rogerproxy asks him what he wants, all the young man wants to do is to call his mother. "Mum," he says into the phone, "I just won the World Cup."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I don't want to talk to you," the old woman says. "You deserted us. You are not my son."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I don't think you understand, Mother!" the young man pleads. "I just won the greatest sporting event in the world.

Any individual narcissist may exhibit none or one of the following:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; unprincipled narcissist - including antisocial features. A charlatan - is a fraudulent, exploitative, deceptive and unscrupulous individual. (Pronounced as JILMART in Sinhala)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; amorous narcissist - including histrionic features. The Don Juan of our times - is erotic, exhibitionist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; compensatory narcissist - including negativistic (passive-aggressive), avoidant features.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; elitist narcissist - variant of pure pattern. Corresponds to Wilhelm Reich's "phallic narcissistic" personality type.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; fanatic type - including paranoid features. A severely narcissistically wounded individual, usually with major paranoid tendencies who holds onto an illusion of omnipotence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My personal belief is that Mahinda Rajapaksa is afflicted with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). If you have been closely observing his shenanigans since he came to power in November 2005, (especially the recent week long Tamasha that was organised for his second inauguration as PresiDunce), you too would have come to the same conclusion after reading the observations of the WHO and Theodore Millon which are given above. I further believe that according to Theodore Millons identified five subtypes of narcissist,  Mahinda Rajapaksa falls in to the category of,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; unprincipled narcissist - including antisocial features. A charlatan - is a fraudulent, exploitative, deceptive and unscrupulous individual. (Pronounced as JILMART in Sinhala)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; fanatic type - including paranoid features. A severely narcissistically wounded individual, usually with major paranoid tendencies who holds onto an illusion of omnipotence.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Now the 64 million dollar question is, WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT? &lt;br /&gt;Short of a peoples’ revolution or the grim reaper having mercy upon us and giving Rajapaksa what he deserves...I see no other solution to  the continuation of his dictatorial rule in the near future!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-5854138347371326924?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/5854138347371326924/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/11/narcissistic-personality-disorder-npd.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/5854138347371326924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/5854138347371326924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/11/narcissistic-personality-disorder-npd.html' title='Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) (aka Megalomania)'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TPCF64feohI/AAAAAAAACeM/m1N-nLRSiPc/s72-c/Dictators1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-1897815692324865242</id><published>2010-11-21T21:47:00.001+09:00</published><updated>2010-11-21T21:49:24.864+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about  sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about corruption sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about  the history of clowns'/><title type='text'>The Sri Lankan &amp; North Korean Family Rule</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TOkVRm-CXbI/AAAAAAAACeE/walgbG55INM/s1600/The%2BSilly%2BLankan%2B%2526%2BNorth%2BKorean%2BFamily%2BDictatorships.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 364px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TOkVRm-CXbI/AAAAAAAACeE/walgbG55INM/s400/The%2BSilly%2BLankan%2B%2526%2BNorth%2BKorean%2BFamily%2BDictatorships.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5541984208718814642" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;North Korea here we come!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;North Korea’s government follows the Juche ideology of self-reliance, developed by the country's former President, Kim Il-sung. After his death, Kim Il-sung was declared to be the country's Eternal President. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(ha...ha...ha...reminds me of the slogan on banners, “Oba samadaa apay Janapathi!” translated to English it means you will be our PresiDunce forever!) &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Juche became the official state ideology when the country adopted a new constitution in 1972, though Kim Il-sung had been using it to form policy since at least as early as 1955. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(remids me of the “Mahinda Chinthanaya.”)&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  After the collapse of the Soviet Union and a series of natural disasters, a famine occurred, causing the death of 900,000 to 2 million people. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(We can expect something similar in the near future!)&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Facing these circumstances, leader Kim Jong-Il &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(thats Kim Il-sungs son)&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; adopted Songun, or a "military-first" policy in order to strengthen the country and its government. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(what will Namal adopt after his father kicks the bucket? “Namal Chinthanaya?”)&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Officially a socialist republic, many media organizations outside North Korea report that it is a totalitarian Stalinist dictatorship with an elaborate cult of personality around the Kim family and one of the worst human rights records of any country. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(Now is there a cult of personality behind the Rajapaksha family or not?)&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  North Korea is the world's most militarized nation with a total of 9,495,000 active, reserve, and paramilitary personnel. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(Sri Lanka is slowly getting there).&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

Though unlike most &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Germans&lt;/span&gt; I had daily access to foreign newspapers, especially those of London, Paris and Zurich,which arrived the day after publication, and though I listened regularly to the BBC and other foreign broadcasts, my job necessitated the spending of many hours a day in combing the &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;German&lt;/span&gt; press, checking the &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;German&lt;/span&gt; radio, conferring with &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Nazi officials&lt;/span&gt; and going to party meetings. It was surprising and sometimes consternating to find that notwithstanding the opportunities I had to learn the facts and despite one’s inherent distrust of what one learned from &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Nazi sources&lt;/span&gt;,a steady diet over the years of falsifications and distortions made a certain impression on one’s mind and often misled it. No one who has not lived for years in a totalitarian land can possibly conceive how difficult it is to escape the dread consequences of a regime’s calculated and incessant propaganda. Often in a &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;German&lt;/span&gt; home or office or sometimes in a casual conversation with a stranger in a restaurant, a beer hall, a cafe, I would meet with the most outlandish assertions from seemingly educated and intelligent persons. It was obvious that they were parroting some piece of nonsense they had heard on the radio or read in the newspapers. Sometimes one was tempted to say as much, but on such occasions one was met with such a stare of incredulity, such a shock of silence, as if one had blasphemed the Almighty, that one realized how useless it was even to try to make contact with a mind which had become warped and for whom the facts of life had become what &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Hitler&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Goebbels&lt;/span&gt;, with their cynical disregard for truth, said they were.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-6119062293844326927?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/6119062293844326927/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/10/life-in-hitlers-third-reich-and.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/6119062293844326927'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/6119062293844326927'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/10/life-in-hitlers-third-reich-and.html' title='Life in Hitler&apos;s Third Reich and Rajapaksa&apos;s Family Reich'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TMhGS3RdN6I/AAAAAAAACds/l5VKwv-RFMA/s72-c/2009+BIG+BROTHER.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-8699380543632030683</id><published>2010-10-27T23:35:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2010-10-27T23:36:40.477+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about  sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dictatorship in Sri Lanka'/><title type='text'>ASSchariya RaiPaksha</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TMg44fcbuQI/AAAAAAAACdk/PacOjMD1Z60/s1600/aishwariya+raipaksha.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Percy 'Jilmart' Bean has a bunch of problems. Megalomania problems. Abduction problems. Dynastic Problems. Zero Casualtiy Problems. An ever-growing pile of murder victims in his HumBug TOTO jurisdiction. And the fact he's a sadist, a psychopath, a killer. We learn how he dispatches several journalists'and thousand of unarmed civilians. Suspicion begins to fall on Percy 'Jilmart' Bean, and it's only a matter of time before he runs out of alibis. But in Percy 'Jilmart' Bean's savage, bleak, blacker than noir 'ASSchariya Rai Universe' nothing is ever what it seems and it turns out that the investigators from "THE UNITED BANKERS" pursuing him might have a secret of their own. Especially chief investigator Mr. Banking BOOM. You should expect the unexpected all along through out this story until the very end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DIRECTED BY&lt;br /&gt;Michael Winterbottompaksa&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PRODUCED BY&lt;br /&gt;Chris Hanleypaksa&lt;br /&gt;Bradford L.

Stations?”&lt;br /&gt;“Because they do not give happy endings to stories about me!”&lt;br /&gt; “I like happy endings!”&lt;br /&gt;Someday a jolly cameraman will hit him with a jolly camera, right on his jolly nut!&lt;br /&gt;What a happy ending THAT will be!&lt;br /&gt;Happy! Happy! Happy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lesson 9&lt;br /&gt;Listen to the funny Peacekeeping Comedian talk.&lt;br /&gt;Blah! Blah! Blah!&lt;br /&gt;Lie! Lie! Lie!&lt;br /&gt;See his funny nose grow, just like Peenorkeeyo&lt;br /&gt;“Is it true that 25,000 tourists were permanently rehabilitated and not a single&lt;br /&gt; humanitarian peacekeeper was either permanently or partly rehabilitated?”&lt;br /&gt;Of course! Of course! Of course!&lt;br /&gt;See his funny nose grow, just like Peenorkeeyo&lt;br /&gt;Grow! Grow! Grow!&lt;br /&gt;“Funny Peacekeeping Comedian, when will the war end?”&lt;br /&gt;There is no war, only a ‘Humanitarian Crusade!’&lt;br /&gt;Blah! Blah! Blah!&lt;br /&gt;Grow! Grow! Grow!&lt;br /&gt;How nice it would be if the funny Peacekeeping Comedian’s &lt;br /&gt;BRAIN would grow instead of his nose!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lesson 10&lt;br /&gt;See the funny tax-paying idiot.&lt;br /&gt;He is the 8th wonder of the world.&lt;br /&gt;He has a 40-year-old body and a 10-year-old mind.&lt;br /&gt;He believes everything the funny Parleymutts tell him.&lt;br /&gt;The funny Parleymutts T.V. channels and newspapers tell him what he likes to hear.&lt;br /&gt;He believes he lives in the greatest country on Planet Mirth.&lt;br /&gt;He believes he has the greatest culture and the best economy on Planet Mirth.&lt;br /&gt;He believes that women from LunDumb, Parish and Nooyuk,&lt;br /&gt;will one-day work as housemaids in his country.&lt;br /&gt;He also believes that pigs can fly and hell will one-day freeze over. &lt;br /&gt;If this continues, the funny tax-paying idiot will become even more amazing.&lt;br /&gt;He will no longer have a 40-year-old body and a 10-year-old mind.&lt;br /&gt;He will have a 40-year-old body and a FIVE-year-old mind.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-2783390114101957920?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/2783390114101957920/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/09/come-to-malboro-country-land-of-zero.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/2783390114101957920'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/2783390114101957920'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/09/come-to-malboro-country-land-of-zero.html' title='Come to Malboro Country - The Land of Zero Casualties'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TJeLJTBYWPI/AAAAAAAACcs/HR0ZG6GxQZs/s72-c/come+to+malboro+country.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-7680657242225680738</id><published>2010-09-13T18:55:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2010-09-13T18:58:53.861+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about politicians in sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about corruption sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='president bean'/><title type='text'>I Have A Dream (with apologies to Martin Luther King)</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TI31WhJ2trI/AAAAAAAACcc/iDSLJ5bq8lQ/s1600/toilet+paper.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 336px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/TI31WhJ2trI/AAAAAAAACcc/iDSLJ5bq8lQ/s400/toilet+paper.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5516334885804357298" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a dream that one day Jilmart Island will rise up and live out the true meaning of MY Chinthanaya: "I PresiDunce Bean hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created subservient to Me, and my family of 300+."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a dream that one day on the red hills of GeorgiJilmart, the sons of former Tourists and the sons of former Tourist Rehabilitators will be able to sit down together at the table of Jilmarthood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a dream that one day even the state of MississippiWaikkal, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of One Family Rule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a dream that my three sons Ipang, Opang and Japang will one day live in a nation where Jilmartians will be judged by their ties to MY Family and not be judged by the color of their skin or by the content of their character.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a dream today for tomorrow and another 2500 years and more! Ha…ha…ha…&lt;br /&gt;I have a dream that one day, down in AlabamaWaikkal, with its humanitarian racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of "Maathrooboomeyaa" and "One country One people" -- one day right there in AlabamaWaikkal little Tranquil boys and Tranquil girls will be able to join hands with little Jilmart boys and Jilmart girls as sisters and brothers of one father.

I’m tired of wearing the right kind of clothes and being seen in the right kind of places. I’m also tired of driving the right kind of vehicle. In other words, I’m sick of being a Phoney Colomboian. What can I do to change? &lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                  E.T.&lt;br /&gt;Dear E.T.,&lt;br /&gt; I suggest you quit your job, sell your vehicle and buy some second hand clothes. Then go and live in a “Welfare Holiday Camp” in WOWneeyar! In other words you can become a Phoney WOWneeyarn!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Percy,&lt;br /&gt;Whenever I go for a film festival at the Jewman Cultural Institute, I never know what’s going on. Afterwards, all my friends analyze and discuss the movie, but when they ask for my opinion, I just stand there looking like an idiot. Please help me!&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                   M.R.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear M.R.,&lt;br /&gt;Next time they ask, look misty eyed, sigh and say, “It was such a deep, meaningful and personal experience that I’d rather not discuss it!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Percy,&lt;br /&gt;I have a problem. I am the mother of an 18 year old girl, and I have given her all the better things in life – designer clothes, a red Porsche, several credit cards and vacations in Shysterland, Toyland and Noisyland. But no matter how hard I try, she persists in wasting her time studying. She claims she wants to become a teacher and teach the young holiday makers living in “Welfare Holiday Camps” in WOWneeyar. Where have I failed her as a mother?&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                 Mrs. F.K.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Mrs. F.K.,&lt;br /&gt;Don’t blame yourself. You did the best you could, and that’s all that counts. If she wants to ruin her life, let her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Percy,&lt;br /&gt;When is it proper to shake with the right hand, and when is it proper to greet ‘Colomboian Style’ with both palms together in front of your face?&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                  R.R.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear R.R.,&lt;br /&gt;Although both palms together in front of your face is the traditional phoney greeting, you are mistaken in calling it the ‘Colomboian Style.’ The ‘Colomboian Style’ greeting for friends, enemies and total strangers alike is a hug and a kiss on both cheeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Percy,&lt;br /&gt;Last week I took a girl out to a fancy restaurant for dinner. When the bill came, I pulled out a huge roll of 2000 raypee notes and peeled off 4 notes and paid the bill. Since then she has refused to go out with me. Do you think I was too obvious in trying to impress her?&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                          D.S.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear D.S.,&lt;br /&gt;The trouble is, you didn’t impress her at all. Anyone who pays cash in a fancy restaurant must be on the verge of bankruptcy. When you take the next girl out for dinner, use a credit card.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Percy,&lt;br /&gt; Your column irritates me. Why should Colomboians want to be phonies? They should be real and honest like me. I Don’t want to be something I’m not. Nor do I desire things I cannot have. I have found true happiness in my wife and 8 children, and great satisfaction in my job as a simple security guard.&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                         D.B.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear D.B.,&lt;br /&gt;I admire you very much. Your argument shows that you are one of the biggest Phoney Colomboians who ever wrote to me. Have you ever thought of getting into politics?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Percy,&lt;br /&gt;I am engaged to a Colomboian who is a right royal phoney. I can’t believe a word he tells me, and his promises are worthless. What should I do?&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                  A.C.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear A.C.,&lt;br /&gt;Marry the guy immediately! He has the makings of a great Parleymutt. Who knows, if he is lucky, he might even become Presi-Dunce!

This is your captain speaking. I am happy to announce that this is the first supersonic flight undertaken by BEANheen Air from Idiot Island to Libby Yar. We will be flying at an altitude of 90,000 feet and a speed of 1800km per hour. Our flying time from Idiot Island to Libby Yar will be 2 hours and 45 minutes.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Ladies and gentlemen, I know you are wondering why we have been waiting to take off for over 2 hours. Unfortunately, His &lt;br /&gt;Hex-A-Lunacy the Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient Presi-Dunce Percy Jilmart Bean’s brother’s wife’s sister’s daughter has been held up in traffic. We will be taking off as soon as she gets on board. In the mean time you are kindly requested to watch the in-flight movie of our beloved Presi-Dunce and his Royal Family of 300+ on their recent visit to LunDumb, Parish and NooYuk.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Ladies and gentlemen, His Hex-A-Lunacy the Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient Presi-Dunce Percy Jilmart Bean’s brother’s wife’s sister’s daughter has finally got on board. We have now been cleared for take off. I apologize for the 6 hour delay at the runway. The stewardesses will now serve you Kurakang bread and Kola Kenda.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Well ladies and gentlemen, we seem to have broken some sort of record. Our flying time to Libby Yar was 2 hours and 31 minutes. Unfortunately there are many planes circling the airport, and we have been asked to fly over the Sha-Ha-Raa desert and hold there at 65,000 feet.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Ladies and gentlemen, since I last spoke to you, 90 minutes ago, I regret the Libby Yar airport has asked us to maintain altitude and fly in a pattern over Tim-Buck-Too.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Friend’s, I know you are all very tired and hungry and thirsty, but trying to break down my door is not going to help anybody. We should be getting the green light from Libby Yar at anytime now…”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We will be permitted to land within the next hour. Please fasten your safety belts, and may the blessings of His Hex-A-Lunacy the Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient Presi-Dunce Percy Jilmart Bean be upon you all!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We are now on the ground at Libby Yar airport. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any room at the ramp, and we have been asked to wait out here until someone leaves. It should not take more than 40 or 50 minutes. Until then, please relax and watch the in-flight movie number 2 of our beloved Presi-Dunce’s recent visit to Eeeran, Meandmymaa and Shyna.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Well ladies and gentlemen, here we are at the terminal, and I hope you enjoyed the maiden supersonic flight of BEANheen Air. I’m happy to announce we beat the previous record set by ChristoBean ColomBus when he crossed the Hatlantik in 1492 in the NeenaBean, the PintaBean and the SantamariaBean by 4 hours and 12 minutes.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Have a wonderful day, and don’t forget to tell your friends and relatives about BEANheen Air.

Here the cook assisted by one or two women ladled the Kola Kenda and Kurakang bread at mealtimes. The bowls never wanted washing. The former child soldiers polished them with their spoons until they shone; and when they had performed this humanitarian operation, they would sit staring at the cook. Alivar Twistasingham and his companions suffered the tortures of slow starvation for three months due to the GSP+ concession having been withdrawn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At last they got so voracious and wild with hunger that one former child soldier hinted darkly that unless he had a two-thirds majority of Kola Kenda and Kurakang bread, he might some night decide to go over to the opposition or maybe even eat the boy who slept next to him. He had a wild hungry eye and kept screaming ‘Maathroooboomeeyaa…’ in his sleep; and they implicitly believed him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A council was held and votes were cast to find out who would walk up to the cook after dinner and ask for more Kola Kenda and Kurakang bread. Due to a computer ‘Jilmart’ while counting the votes, the task fell upon Alivar. The evening arrived and the boys took their places. The Kola Kenda and Kurakang bread disappeared; the boys whispered ‘Maathroooboomeeyaa…’ to each other and winked at Alivar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As he was desperate with hunger, he rose from the table and advanced towards the cook with his bowl and spoon in hand and said, “Please, sir, I want some more Kola Kenda and Kurakang bread.” The cook turned very pale, his assistants were paralysed with wonder and the boys with fear. “What!” Said the cook in a faint voice. “Please sir,” said Alivar, “I want some more Kola Kenda and Kurakang bread.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cook aimed a humanitarian blow at Alivar’s head with the ladle and shrieked aloud for the ‘Welfare Holiday Camp’ Commandant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Military Court was sitting in solemn conclave, when Commandant Bumblepaksha rushed into the room in great excitement and said, “I beg your pardon sirs! Alivar Twistasingham has asked for more Kola Kenda and Kurakang bread.” There was a general start. Horror was depicted on every countenance. Alivar was ordered into instant confinement under the ‘Prevention Of Tourism’ Act, and a reward of 5 pounds was offered to anybody who could prove that Alivar was hatching an International Conspiracy to bring the ‘Welfare Holiday Camp’ into disrepute.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(To be continued no sooner than when the fundamental rights case filed by Alivar Twistasingham, against his unlawful arrest and confinement, naming the cook and Mr, Bumblepaksha as respondents is taken up for review by the Supreme Court).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-8151709577645167605?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/8151709577645167605/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/03/alivar-twistasingham-by-charles.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/8151709577645167605'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/8151709577645167605'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/03/alivar-twistasingham-by-charles.html' title='Alivar Twistasingham by Charles Dickensekeram'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S5TYENxJCBI/AAAAAAAACbY/81QAY59baGs/s72-c/oliver--twist.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-3557827627421909458</id><published>2010-02-22T22:43:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2010-02-22T22:44:42.290+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Why not to vote!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S4KKLpBPUlI/AAAAAAAACbQ/iRAUy0lkYYA/s1600-h/iran-election-where-is-my-vote1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 282px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S4KKLpBPUlI/AAAAAAAACbQ/iRAUy0lkYYA/s400/iran-election-where-is-my-vote1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441063232411226706" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You're only one in a million, so why bother to vote, to speak up, to get involved, to commit yourself? German author Hans Habe answers this way: "The world is one percent good, one percent bad, and 98 percent neutral, and this is why what individuals do is important.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the case of Sri Lanka, there is a 69 percent vocal majority and a 31 percent powerless minority. And a situation where the President is elected only from the 69 percent vocal majority, and never from the 31 percent powerless minority!&lt;br /&gt;Now the 64 million dollar question is, WHY VOTE when the henchmen and henchwomen of the Royal Family eventually SELECTS who WINS and who LOSES…and by how much they win by at the counting centres.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way forward is for this country to be once again administered by Britain or some other 1st world country. Until then, Sri Lanka will meander along as a 'Can't be developed country,' ruled by an oriental despot and his Royal Family of 300+.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-3557827627421909458?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/3557827627421909458/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/02/why-not-to-vote.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/3557827627421909458'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/3557827627421909458'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/02/why-not-to-vote.html' title='Why not to vote!'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S4KKLpBPUlI/AAAAAAAACbQ/iRAUy0lkYYA/s72-c/iran-election-where-is-my-vote1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-2054030239151029817</id><published>2010-02-22T21:49:00.001+09:00</published><updated>2010-02-22T21:52:49.962+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Jathika Hela Urumaya Sex Laws</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S4J9-93K7fI/AAAAAAAACbI/ry05dq8nbCs/s1600-h/Censorship.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 325px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S4J9-93K7fI/AAAAAAAACbI/ry05dq8nbCs/s400/Censorship.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441049820528307698" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some repressive laws designed to regulate private sexual conduct in Sri Lanka.

Presi-Dunce of "The DemoCrazy, TheoCrazy, International Conspiracy of Idiot Island!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Idiot Islanders Rejoice! You may have lost the GSP+...but you have gained ME and my Royal Family of 300+...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That Japang dude Sushi Yakashi once asked me, how often I had elections…and I replied to him that I have an election every time I see that Hinacurly girl!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Shyneese Premier dude once asked me how many erections I have had since I was erected Presi-Dunce…and I told him to go ask the erections commissioner! Duh!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While having rice and curry with ME and my Royal Family of 300+…the Titalian Premier told me he wanna fork! I told him you no fork in front of my Royal Family of 300+ ! But he tell me he wanna fork on the table! I tell him, you no fork on the table you sonama beach! And he tell me, then at least  give him a spoon. So I say, “Waiter! Give this man a spoon!” And he eat his rice and curry with the spoon; and he no longer wanna fork on the table. Bloody Titalians!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My 3 sons Ipang, Opang and Japang once asked me if all Fairy Tales began with ‘Once Upon A Time?’ And I said Nooo… some Fairy Tales begin with, When I Become Presi-Dunce…   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I’m at home, everyone kisses my butt…and when I’m abroad, I kiss everyone’s butt! I recently kissed Moda Dave and Putting’s butts when I went to Rooseeyar. I once even kissed the tarmac in the airport! Of all the butts I’ve kissed, the butt of Kernal GodayaFree of Labia, smelt the nicest!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peepal’s who don’t love the country, call me by many names like Idi Amin Bean, Adolf Bean, Mugabe Bean and Pol Pot Bean. My reply to these peepal’s is the same as what my good friend Willyman Shake His Spear used to say… “A ruse by any other name, would still smell fishy like a computer ‘jilmart’ election fraud!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some Shynees dude said, many years ago, if you want to be remembered beyond your time…you must plant a tree, bear a son and write a book . Well I, Percy ‘Jilmart’ Bean have uprooted  thousands of trees to build an airport that nobody needs. I have 3 sons called Ipang, Opang and Japang who are 3 chips of the old block. And I have written 2 bestsellers called “My Name is NOT Khan” and “My Name Is Percy 'Jilmart' Bean!” I guess 2 out of 3 isn’t that bad eh? Without a doubt, the Percy 'Jilmart' Bean Reich will last a thousand years, and the name Percy 'Jilmart' Bean will last a thousand more!

So the man went to the bedroom where his wife was still asleep and woke her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“There is a tourist in the chicken coop,” he said, “and I think he is hatching an international conspiracy!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His wife opened one angry eye and looked at him.&lt;br /&gt;“Tourism has been completely defeated,” she said. “There are no longer any tourists on Idiot Island...not even the ones who went around waving white thermos flasks!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the man walked out slowly into the garden and went towards the chicken coop. The tourist was still there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Are you a tourist or a state tourist? The man asked. “I’m a tourist, and I’m hatching an international conspiracy using NGO money to bring the government of Idiot Island into disrepute!” the tourist replied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the man walked back into the house and roused his wife again. “The tourist is hatching an international conspiracy using NGO money to bring the government of Idiot Island into disrepute!” he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His wife sat up in bed and looked at him coldly. &lt;br /&gt;“You are an unpatriotic idiot who doesn’t love his country,” she said, “and I’m going to have you arrested under the Prevention of Tourism Act!” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The man who was a patriot, who didn’t boast about it to anyone, thought for a moment. “We shall see about that,” he said. Then he walked back towards the chicken coop to watch the tourist. But the tourist had vanished! Maybe a ‘White Unidentified Four-wheeled Object’ (WUFO) had made him vanish thought the man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The wife got up and dressed as fast as she could. She was very excited, thinking about the reward she would get for capturing a traitor. So she hung the national flag from the window and telephoned the Peacekeepers and the Minister for the Prevention Of Tourism, (POT) and told them to hurry to her house as soon as possible! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the Peacekeepers and the Minister of POT arrived, they sat down and looked at her with great interest.&lt;br /&gt;“My husband,” she said, “saw a tourist inside a chicken coop this morning!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Peacekeepers looked at the Minister of POT, and the Minister of POT looked at the Peacekeepers.&lt;br /&gt;“He told me that the tourist was hatching an international conspiracy using NGO money!” she said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Minister of POT looked at the Peacekeepers, and the Peacekeepers looked at the Minister of POT.&lt;br /&gt;“He told me the tourist was planning on bringing disrepute on the government of Idiot Island!” she said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At a signal from the Minister of POT, the Peacekeepers leapt from their chairs and seized the wife. She put up a terrific struggle, but they finally got her under control, just as the husband came back from the chicken coop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Did you tell your wife you saw a tourist in the chicken coop?” asked the Minister of POT.&lt;br /&gt;“Of course not,” said the husband. “Tourism has been completely defeated and there are no longer any tourists on Idiot Island...not even the ones who went around waving white thermos flasks!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“That’s all I wanted to hear,” said the Minister of POT. “Take her away. I’m sorry sir, but your wife is a threat to national security!”&lt;br /&gt;So they took her away, cursing and screaming and locked her up in a navy camp under the ‘Prevention of Terrorism Act.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And so the husband lived happily ever after.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Moral of the story: &lt;br /&gt;Don’t count your international conspiracies before they are hatched.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-2989257990190375080?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/2989257990190375080/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/02/tourist-in-chicken-coop.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/2989257990190375080'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/2989257990190375080'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2010/02/tourist-in-chicken-coop.html' title='The tourist in the chicken coop'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S35_2Oz4l2I/AAAAAAAACaw/X76tkabm8fI/s72-c/Chicken-Coop.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-8936819876548948109</id><published>2010-02-03T23:20:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2010-02-03T23:24:01.551+09:00</updated><title type='text'>2010 Rigged Presidential Election Results of Sri Lanka</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/S2mGna-JiHI/AAAAAAAACao/I4S9SETnRn8/s1600-h/election+results+2010.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

After a long drawn out humanitarian crusade, he was finally able to subdue them, and returned to the capital city Koollamboob in triumph. There were many celebrations throughout the country with drinking, dancing, eating of milk rice and lighting of fire crackers. The Idiot Islanders thronged the streets in their best clothes, cheering Seesaw, while putting up banners and hoardings of him and garlanding his statues. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Seesaws bulletproof limousine passed through the crowd, there was seated beside him, his wife Mrs. Seesaw and his most trusted companion and chief advisor, Antony Wansahero. Also included in his entourage was dynamic and eloquent opposition parleymutt Ronnywicks, General Brootoast Funnyshaker, Tilvanius and Wansasumo. As they passed along, the Idiot Islanders cheered and pressed upon them, and yet above the tumult one voice sounded shriller than the rest as it cried out, "Seesaw! Seesaw!" Seesaw too, heard the voice and signalled the driver to stop while he listened. The man was a soothsayer who did a weekly astrology program on a private TV station.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When he saw that Seesaw had halted, he said: "Beware the Ides of January!" So Seesaw ordered that the man should come out of the crowd so that he might see him. Once more the soothsayer said, "Beware the Ides of January!" Seesaw with a shrug replied, "He is an international conspirator. Have him taken to the fourth floor of the Butterland Pleasure Chambers, and tickle him with chicken feathers, and question him for 24 hours!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the procession continued towards the Pompeydasa International Amphitheatre, General Brootoast paused as if reluctant to continue on. Tilvanius who had been watching him closely, asked Brootoast whether he did not want to watch the Idiot Island versus Hindiyaar crooked match; to which Brootoast answered that he had better things to do than to watch 22 grown men chasing after a white ball. The streets by this time were deserted, as everyone had gone to witness the match. After a while, Tilvanius and Brootoast heard the sounds of shouting and the sounds of paparay bands. "What does that shouting mean?" asked Brootoast. "I fear the Idiot Islanders will choose Seesaw for their king!" replied Tilvanius. "Though I love the man, I would not want him as my king!" said Brootoast. This gave Tilvanius the opening he desired, to try and stir Brootoast against Seesaw. So he went on, "A few years ago, during the caretaker elections, Seesaw cried out to me and Wansasumo. 'Help me Tilvanius…help me Wansasumo…to become caretaker of Idiot Island!' And so we helped him. This is the man who has now become a God, and Tilvanius must bow low before him if he merely looks my way. When he was afflicted by swine flu, the colour fled from his lips and he murmured like a sick girl, 'Give me some water, Tilvanius.' And yet a man so feeble has become supreme in the whole country!"&lt;br /&gt;By this time Seesaw and his entourage were coming back from the match. Hindiyaar had won in the final over, with 3 balls to spare. Seesaw had noticed that Brootoast and Tilvanius were no longer with him, and when he saw them whispering together and looking at him, he pointed them out to Wanshero. "Let me have men that are fat and sleep well at night. That Tilvanius looks lean and hungry; he thinks too much, and such men are dangerous; if there were a man I could fear, Tilvanius is the first man I should avoid!" Anthony Wansahero did not agree with Seesaw. He was an easy-going man who loved wine, women, song and playing around with his two state-of-the-art cellular phones. When Seesaw and the rest had left, Brootoast asked Wansasumo what had happened at the Pompeydasa International Amphitheatre, and Wansasumo replied, "The Idiot Islanders offered him a crown 3 times, and each time Seesaw refused it and said, I'm not your king...I'm only your caretaker!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that the 3 men parted. When they had gone, Tilvanius knew that his plan was succeeding. Brootoast was an honourable humanitarian, yet he could be persuaded. A few days later, a terrible storm broke over Idiot Island, and strange incidents started to happen throughout the country. The stock market crashed; many foreign investors wound up their businesses and left the island; most countries in their travel advisories warned their citizens against visiting the island; rich countries stopped lending money to Seesaw's government, and United Bankers secretary general Banking Boom urged Seesaw to resettle the Tranquil Welfare Holiday Campers as soon as possible. All these strange events seemed to portend some great calamity. Most Idiot Islanders were terrified by what was happening. Tilvanius who met Wansasumo on the street, told him that the heavens were sending these warnings because the Idiot Islanders were trying to turn mortal men into immortal Gods! "You mean Seesaw?" asked Wansasumo. "Yes indeed," replied Tilvanius, "they say that tomorrow the parleymutts mean to make Seesaw a king, and he will wear his crown where ever he goes!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile Brootoast was pacing up and down in his house. The more he thought, the more he realised that only through the permanent rehabilitation of Seesaw could Idiot Island really be free. So far Seesaw had only used his power to form a dynasty and install his close relatives in key government positions; but once he was crowned king, he would have unlimited power. In the evening, Tilvanius and his international conspirators entered the house of Brootoast. They were – Wansasumo, Kehelmala, Milimoro, Rayjasenna, Amusara, Tenderman, Seefour and Esbidi. Brootoast welcomed them all and shook each man by the hand. Then they all sat down and began to discuss how their plot might be carried out. In time Tilvanius said, "It is doubtful whether Seesaw will appear tomorrow, for he has become superstitious lately and these strange omens and the persuasion of his advisors will keep him away from the parleymutts building!" "Never fear that," said Milimoro, "I can persuade Seesaw and bring him to the parleymutts building." As everything was decided, each conspirator left for their respective homes, leaving Brootoast home alone. &lt;br /&gt;All that night the thunder and lightning continued and no one on Idiot Island slept...that is except for the deaf, dumb and blind. In the morning, Mrs. Seesaw begged Seesaw not to leave for the parleymutts building. She pleaded with him to send Antony Wansahero to inform the parleymutts that Seesaw was not well. But just then, Milimoro arrived and bade Seesaw a good morning, and said that he had come to accompany him to the parleymutts building. Seesaw replied to Milimoro, "Tell the parleymutts that I will not attend today as Mrs. Seesaw saw a bad dream about me!" "But Seesaw!" interjected Milimoro, "The parleymutts have agreed this day to bestow a crown upon Seesaw. If you do not attend today, it will become a joke; and people will say, 'Dismiss the parleymutts until Mrs. Seesaw has better dreams.' If Seesaw hides himself, they will say that the mighty Seesaw is afraid!" Seesaw was so convinced by Milimoro's words that he set off with him to the parleymutts building. &lt;br /&gt;As they passed through the streets Seesaw saw the soothsayer, who had by this time had been released from the fourth floor of the Butterland Pleasure Chambers, and said to him smiling, "The Ides of January are come!" "Yes Seesaw," he replied, "but not gone!" So Seesaw entered the parleymutts building and took his seat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The international conspirators drew near to him, and crowded around him. First Brootoast knelt before him, took his hand and kissed it. Then on the other side, Tilvanius knelt before him, and so did the rest of the conspirators. By this time, Wansasumo had crept around behind Seesaw's chair. Suddenly with his 9 millimetre pistol drawn, he cried out, "Speak, 9 millimetre for me!" Then all of them fell upon Seesaw with their 9 millimetres drawn, and shot him again and again. For a while Seesaw resisted, but when he saw that General Brootoast his friend was also one of the conspirators, he cried out, "Et tu Brootoast! You son of a beach ball!" Then he hid his face with the red towel he wore around his neck, and fell permanently rehabilitated at the foot of Pompeydaasa's statue. When the conspirators saw that Seesaw was permanently rehabilitated, they cried out aloud, "Liberty! Freedom! Jayaho! Tyranny is permanently rehabilitated!" When Antony Wansahero appeared, Brootoast turned towards him and told him to take Seesaw's body to the Barney Roman Funeral Parlour and prepare it for the funeral. After which he was instructed to bring the casket to the Independence Circle where Wansahero could speak on behalf of Seesaw. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the day of Seesaw's funeral, first spoke Brootoast. Brootoast said, "Seesaw once said that there are only two kinds of people on Idiot Island! Those who love the island, and those who do not love the Island! I Brootoast loved Idiot Island, which is why I permanently rehabilitated Seesaw. If I have offended anybody by my deed, speak up!" And the crowd shouted back, "Brootoast has offended no one! The wannabe king is dead! Long live Brootoast the new caretaker of Idiot Island!" &lt;br /&gt;And then it was the turn of Antony Wansahero. Wansahero went up to the podium and checked the microphone, and began to speak. "Friends, Idiot Islanders, Country Bumpkins...lend me your ears, and I promise to return them after I have finished with them! The evil that men do lies buried up north in thousands of unmarked graves. The good is also interred with the bones. I come to speak at Seesaws funeral because he was my friend, faithful and just to me; and not because Seesaw made me his chief advisor or gave me a large mansion to live in or lavished me with many backup vehicles and hundreds of bodyguards! But Brootoast says he was ambitious! And I say that's because Seesaw did not give Brootoast a large mansion to live in or lavish him with many backup vehicles and hundreds of bodyguards! I say this is sour grapes Brootoast! But Brootoast is an honourable humanitarian."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then Antony Wanshero produced a folded paper which he held up for the crowd to see. "Here is a paper sealed with Seesaws seal! It is his last will and testament." The people wondered what might be in the will, and they cried out to Antony Wansahero to read it. So Wansahero unfolded the paper and began to read the will.&lt;br /&gt;"To every Idiot Islander I leave ten raypees each. My Shysterland bank accounts I leave to my family members. The Yale and Wilpot jungles, the rivers, lakes, valleys, mountains, waterfalls, the fish in the sea and animals on the land I bequeath to the citizens on Idiot Island.  I also leave them a half finished harbour, a not yet begun airport and my bankrupt 'Seesaw Air' airlines!" The crowd roared with satisfaction, and there was much clapping and cheering after the will was read. After that the crowd took Seesaws body, made a pyre with anything that would burn. They then set Seesaws body on it, and set fire to it. Then taking burning fagots from the pyre, they ran around to the houses of the conspirators and set them on fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brootoast and Tilvanius and their friends managed to escape to Hindiyaar where they raised a peacekeeping force with which they prepared to meet Antony Wansahero. As time went on Brootoast and Tilvanius started to fight amongst themselves as to who would be caretaker after Wansahero was defeated. Wansahero in the mean time had landed in Hindiyaar with a large peacekeeping force of his own, and surrounded Brootoast and Tilvanius. Brootoast and Tilvanius committed seaside by jumping in the sea, rather than surrender to Wansahero. And thus those responsible for the permanent rehabilitation of Seesaw were permanently rehabilitated themselves. Nevertheless, Antony Wansahero honoured Brootoast, for of all the conspirators he alone was moved not by envy of Seesaw, but by a desire for the good of his country.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-9093608124573538207?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/9093608124573538207/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/12/jollyass-seesaw-funny-tragedy.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/9093608124573538207'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/9093608124573538207'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/12/jollyass-seesaw-funny-tragedy.html' title='Jollyass Seesaw (A Funny Tragedy)'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SyDX1jeA6RI/AAAAAAAACaU/ZNtR_mUPR0A/s72-c/caesa+2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-6809217002550387121</id><published>2009-12-07T22:39:00.001+09:00</published><updated>2009-12-07T22:42:23.846+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Idiot Islanders For Democrazy Anarchy!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/Sx0GJ8LaeKI/AAAAAAAACaE/bke40hFub-4/s1600-h/anarchy.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 258px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/Sx0GJ8LaeKI/AAAAAAAACaE/bke40hFub-4/s400/anarchy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412489095011793058" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We at IIFDA hope to, “Wipe out Corruption in Government by wiping out Government!”&lt;br /&gt;We will, “Give Government back to the People and make everyone his/her own lawmaker!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LET’S RETURN TO THE LAW OF THE JUNGLE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.

One is also reminded of words of the 19th century poet Heinrich Heine who said, “Whenever books are burnt, men also, in the end are burnt.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Dictatorship of Sri Lanka today is only the latest in a long line of Dictatorships worldwide who have tried to snuff out unpalatable ideas and comments by abducting, intimidating, beating and killing its journalists. J.S.Tissainayagam is one of the many such journalists who has been given a prison sentence of 20 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first recorded victim of censorship was Socrates who, in 399 BC was forced to drink poison for ‘denying the gods and introducing new divinities.’ In China, in 213 BC, Emperor Shih Huang-Ti had all writing not pertaining to agriculture or medicine burnt. His target: Confucius’ thoughts. Present day China is no better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the last century, it was the communists who most systematically censored books and hounded their authors. Writers in every communist country from East Germany to Vietnam were forced into concentration camps. Boris Pasternak, Joseph Brodsky, Milan Kundera, Czeslaw Milosz and Alexander Solzhenitsyn were just a few. Hitler’s Germany burnt the books of Jewish authors and liberals, exterminating thousands in their notorious gas chambers and forcing others to flee. In Mahinda’s Sri Lanka, over 14 journalist’s, the majority of them tamils have been killed in the past 3 years. Many more journalist’s have been abducted, beaten and intimidated to keep them from writing the truth.&lt;br /&gt;Sometime back the Government blocked access to the Tamilnet, but what the Government does not understand is that with the advance of technology, censorship has become obsolete. The truth is only a click away.

At the apex of the pyramid comes Big Brother. Big Brother is infallible and all-powerful. Every success, every achievement, every victory, every scientific discovery, all knowledge, all wisdom, all happiness, all virtue, are held to issue directly from his leadership and inspiration. Nobody has ever seen Big Brother. He is a face on the hoardings, a voice on the telescreen. We may be reasonably sure that he will never die, and there is already considerable uncertainty as to when he was born. Big Brother is the guise in which the Party chooses to exhibit itself to the world. His function is to act as a focusing point for love, fear, and reverence, emotions which are more easily felt towards an individual than towards an organization. Below Big Brother comes the Inner Party, its numbers limited to six millions, or something less than 2 per cent of the population of Oceania. Below the Inner Party comes the Outer Party, which, if the Inner Party is described as the brain of the State, may be justly likened to the hands. Below that come the dumb masses whom we habitually refer to as 'the proles', numbering perhaps 85 per cent of the population. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those of you who have read the book and have been living in Sri Lanka for the past three years will understand the similarities between the passage given above and what is happening in Sri Lanka today. For those who may have not read the book, just reread the passage given below with the changes I have made. (My changes are in capital letters).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Given this background, one could infer, if one did not know it already, the general structure of SRI LANKAN SOCIETY. At the apex of the pyramid comes MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA. MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA is infallible and all-powerful. Every success, every achievement, every victory, every scientific discovery, all knowledge, all wisdom, all happiness, all virtue, are held to issue directly from his leadership and inspiration. Nobody has ever seen MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA. He is a face on the hoardings, a voice on the RUPAVAHINI. We may be reasonably sure that he will never die, and there is already considerable uncertainty as to when he was born. MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA is the guise in which the UPFA chooses to exhibit itself to the world. His function is to act as a focusing point for love, fear, and reverence, emotions which are more easily felt towards an individual than towards an organization. Below MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA comes the PARTY SUPPORTERS, FAMILY MEMBERS &amp; HANGERS ON its numbers limited to six millions, or something less than 2 per cent of the population of SRI LANKA. Below the PARTY SUPPORTERS, FAMILY MEMBERS &amp; HANGERS ON comes the BUDDHIST CLERGY, which, if the PARTY SUPPORTERS, FAMILY MEMBERS &amp; HANGERS ON are described as the brain of the State, may be justly likened to the hands. Below that come the dumb masses whom we habitually refer to as ‘THE SINHALA BUDDHIST MAJORITY,’ numbering perhaps 85 per cent of the population. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the sad state that this beautiful country has fallen to.

The IIN recovered 50 loves of bread, 20 pounds of chicken beef and 150 candles that were hidden in the tub. Informed sources say that an investigation will be held to ascertain whether the bread, chicken beef and candles had been brought into the island during the period of the ‘If You’ll Don’t Shoot, We Wont Shoot Agreement.’ &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Idiot Island 2009 AD (21.10am)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been verified that Tourist Leader Rolypoly Prebiocarrom’s pet dog Lassie Master, pet cat Garfield Master and pet parrot Polly Master were shot dead while trying to escape in an ambulance across the Pork Straits, 500 meters from Bacon junction! DNA tests prove beyond a doubt that Lassie Master was a dog, Garfield Master was a cat and Polly Master was indeed a parrot. A large consignment of dog food, cat food and bird seed was also recovered from the captured ambulance. Authorities believe that this consignment of pet food entered Idiot Island during the 3rd World War when Joypang was bombing the Pale Arbour, and not during the period of the ‘If You’ll Don’t Shoot, We Wont Shoot Agreement’ as stated by BooBeeSee, See &amp; End and Helljayzee Raw.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Idiot Island 2009 AD (21.17am)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In news just in, an eye witness states that Tourist Leader Rolypoly Prebiocarrom was teleported up to the ‘Starship Enterprise’ a few minute ago! The witness said that as armed jokers surrounded Tourist Leader Prebiocarrom, he spoke into a satellite phone and said, “Beam Me Up, Scotty!” Then a flash of light emanated from the Enterprise and engulfed the Tourist Leader. When the light faded away a few seconds later, there was no trace of Mr. Prebiocarrom. Efforts to contact Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock of the ‘Starship Enterprise,’were to no avail. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Idiot Island 2009 AD (22.56am)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Commandant of the ‘Treblinka Welfare Concentration Camp,’(TWCC) Major Himmler Heyadrich told reporters today, that the Tranquil Tourists of this camp should consider TWCC as a tourist resort, and their stay there as an all-expense-paid government holiday. “The barbed wire surrounding the camp, and the armed SS (Stinkerlees Soldiers) were there to protect the Tranquil Tourists from unscrupulous tour guides and inquisitive journalists,” said the commandant. Major Himmler Heyadrich also stated that he would leave no stone unturned in trying to provide 5-star-hospitality for all the holiday makers in the TWCC. Major Himmler insisted when asked by a reporter that a 7 course meal will be provided 3 times a day to each Tranquil Tourist for the next 26 years, courtesy of the Government of Idiot Island. Major Himmler also said that United Bankers Secretary General, Mr. Banking Boom who visited the TWCC had praised him for his efficiency in running the camp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Idiot Island 2009 AD (23.46am)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;General Polpot Funnyshaker today denied charges that 20,000 eggs had been broken to make omelettes for the heroic armed jokers fooling around in the north of Idiot Island. General Funnyshaker told reporters that not a single egg was broken while making omelettes. He further stated that his armed jokers had proved to the whole of Planet Mirth that they were the only jokers who could make omelettes without breaking a single egg. When asked by reporters about the thousands of egg shells that were strewn around the ‘Please Don’t Fire We Are Only Innocent Eggs Zone,’ General Funnyshaker said that those eggs were broken by the ‘Liberal Tourists of Tranquil Elysium,’ to make omelettes for their armed jokers. In closing General Funnyshaker said, “What I have said is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth…and if you all don’t believe me, may humanitarian lightning strike you all down and white vans abduct you all in the middle of the night!”&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-7578553552247717931?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/7578553552247717931/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/06/truth-whole-truth-and-nothing-but-truth.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/7578553552247717931'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/7578553552247717931'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/06/truth-whole-truth-and-nothing-but-truth.html' title='The Truth, The Whole Truth And Nothing But The Truth…'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SkMROl_GzEI/AAAAAAAACXc/rfAOot_A2I8/s72-c/Udaya+2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-2294915232144456106</id><published>2009-06-24T19:57:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2009-06-24T20:00:38.294+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about  sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='about idiot island'/><title type='text'>Jayzee of NasalRot</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SkIG-qN-0UI/AAAAAAAACXU/UrkcTfSxyaU/s1600-h/3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 285px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SkIG-qN-0UI/AAAAAAAACXU/UrkcTfSxyaU/s400/3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5350846980824158530" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once upon a time, in the year 2009 AD, the ‘Agent of RAW’ appeared to Jayasaf in a dream and said, “Don’t hesitate to take MIAree as your wife! For the child within her has been conceived through an ‘International Conspiracy’ while she was in the ‘Please Don’t Fire We Are Innocent Tranquils Zone,’ and she will have a son, and you shall name him Jayzee and he will save his Tranquil tribes people from the misery they have undergone at the hands of the Stinkerlees tribes people for over 61 hundred years!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Jayasaf awoke, he did as the ‘Agent of RAW’ had commanded and took MIAree and surrendered to a ‘Welfare Concentration Camp,’ surrounded by barbed wire and armed SS. Jayzee was born in such a camp, in a canvas tent in the town of Bretleehom, during the reign of King Adolf Rogerproxy, Dictator of Idiot Island. At about this time, three wise dignitaries from Western lands arrived in Koolamboo, the capital of Idiot Island, asking, “Where is the newborn King of the Tranquils? For we received news of his birth from satellite images, and have come to worship him and make an independent confirmation.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;King Rogerproxy was deeply disturbed by the satellite evidence from the ‘Eye in the Sky,’ hovering over Bretleehom; the sole witness to all that transpired in the Tranquil homeland towards the north of Idiot Island. So he immediately called a cupboard meeting. And when the hundred an eleven cupboard polytikboobees arrived he asked, “Did our intelligence comedians inform us where the King of the Tranquils would be born?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Yes Sir! No Sir! In Bretleehom Sir!” they all chroused.&lt;br /&gt;Then King Rogerproxy sent three SMS messages to the three wise dignitaries, asking them to come and see him; at this meeting he found out the exact time and date that they received confirmation from the satellite. Then he told them, “Go to Bretleehom and search for the child. You will be allowed free access to all the ‘Welfare Concentration Camp,’ with no restrictions whatsoever. And when you find him, come back and tell me so that I can go and worship him too!” &lt;br /&gt;After this interview, the three wise foreign dignitaries started their journey towards the north. And lo! And behold! The satellite appeared to them hovering over Bretleehom, and their joy knew no bounds! Entering the canvas tent where the baby Jayzee and MIAree his mother were, they threw themselves down before him, worshiping. Then they opened their presents and gave him a state-of-the-art satellite phone, a laptop with a high speed internet connection and a gift voucher to shop at the ‘OD HELL Warehouse.’ &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When they returned to their own lands in the West, they didn’t go through Koolamboo to report to King Rogerproxy, for an ‘Agent of the SeeHighHay’ had warned them in a dream to take a boat to Tranquil Naadoo and hop a flight home from there. After they had gone, the ‘Agent of RAW’ appeared to Jayasaf in a dream. “Get up and flee to Tranquil Naadoo with the baby Jayzee and his mother,” the Agent said, “and stay there until I tell you to return, for King Rogerproxy is going to permanently rehabilitate the child and blame it on an ‘International Conspiracy’ to put the Kingdom of  Idiot Island into disrepute.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That same night, Jayasaf left for Tranquil Naadoo with MIAree and the child, and stayed there until he received further instructions from the ‘Agent of RAW.’ King Rogerproxy was furious when he learned that the three wise dignitaries had disobeyed him. Sending his SS to Bretleehom, he ordered them to permanently rehabilitate every baby boy two years old and under, both in the town and in the various ‘Welfare Concentration Camps.’ This humanitarian action of King Rogerproxy fulfilled the prophecy of the ‘Agent of RAW.’ The screams of anguish, the unrestrained weeping and gnashing of teeth for their permanently rehabilitated children was recorded by the ‘Eye in the Sky’ satellite and relayed to BooBeeSee, See &amp; End and Helljayzee Raw who broadcast these images to every nook and corner of Planet Mirth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;King Rogerproxy and his hundred and eleven cupboard polytikboobees once again screamed till they were blue in the face, claiming that this was another ‘International Conspiracy’ to tarnish the image of the Kingdom of Idiot Island. But the Mirthlings around Planet Mirth could not be fooled. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Shame on you!” they said, and asked for an independent commission to look into the human wrongs committed by the SS, but King Rogerproxy rejected this outright. When King Rogerproxy eventually died, (some say of ‘swine flu’) the ‘Agent of RAW’ appeared once again in a dream to Jayasaf in Tranquil Naadoo, and told him, “Get up and take the baby Jayzee and his mother MIAree back to Idiot Island, for those who were trying to permanently rehabilitate the child are dead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So Jayasaf returned immediately to Idiot Island with Jayzee and his mother. But on the way he got to hear that the new king was Rogerproxy’s son Nomaleproxy. Then in another dream, Jayasaf was warned (by who else) but the ‘Agent of RAW,’ not to go back to Bretleehom due to security reasons. So they went to live in NasalRot, just a stone’s throw away from WallHerWhatHer. Jayzee’s parent’s Jayasaf and MIAree registered themselves at the local police station, before they rented a small apartment after paying a five year advance. Jayzee went to the local international school and was a good student. He was called ‘Jayzee of NasalRot’ by all hi friends, and his enemies called him by many other names (but that’s another story). And so Jayzee and his parents lived happily ever after.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quite an anti climax isn’t it? If you were expecting plenty of blood and gore and murder and mayhem, you should have switched on to ‘Idiot Island Television’ and watched ‘Humanitarian War’ instead!&lt;div

/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "The matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around. What do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers and carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system, and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand; most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it."&lt;br /&gt;~ Morpheus, The Matrix&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; This former ‘Democratic Socialist Republic,’ is now an ‘Autocratic Theocratic Dictatorial Banana Republic,’ run by a ‘Quadrumvirate of Brothers,’ who have the grandiose notion of forming a ‘Dynasty’ similar to those seen in ancient China. This ‘Gang of Four,’ should be the enemy of all freedom loving Sri Lankans. But what do we see instead? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters, farmers…the gullible majority, ready to do the biding of this ‘Gang of Four.’ They do not want to think for themselves; instead they want to be lead by the nose like they have been led for the past sixty-one years. They are beyond saving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "...History is replete with whispers of secret societies... The oldest is the Brotherhood of the Snake, also called the Brotherhood of the Dragon, and it still exists under many different names. The Brotherhood of the Snake is devoted to guarding the 'secrets of the ages' and the recognition of Lucifer as the one and only true God... It's secret symbol is the all-seeing eye in the pyramid. &lt;br /&gt;~William Cooper (Author of "Behold a Pale Horse")&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; The “Rajapaks Brotherhood,” also known as “The Gang Of Four” and “The Four War Lord Millionaires,” rule the country like it is their own personal fiefdom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free. The truth has been kept from the depth of their minds by masters who rule them with lies. They feed them on falsehoods till wrong looks like right in their eyes." &lt;br /&gt;~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; The ‘Sinhala Majority’ is made to believe that once the LTTE is forced to cease conventional battle, the war will be over; that none of the Tamil civilian deaths in the north are due shelling by the armed forces, that no soldiers are killed or maimed, that all the destruction is by the LTTE etc. This has all been possible because journalists of the independent media have been killed, abducted, intimidated or gone into hiding; leaving the Government media to disseminate whatever tall stories it wants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it;&lt;br /&gt;Do not believe in anything simply because it’s spoken and rumoured by many;&lt;br /&gt;Do not believe in anything simply because it’s found written in your religious books;&lt;br /&gt;Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your elders;&lt;br /&gt;Do not believe in tradition because they have been handed down for many generations;&lt;br /&gt;But after observation and analysis when you find that anything agrees with reason, and is conductive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.&lt;br /&gt;~The Buddha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; The ‘Sinhala Majority’ believes it if it appears in the Government media;&lt;br /&gt;The ‘Sinhala Majority’ believes it if the ‘Buddhist Clergy’ tells them so;&lt;br /&gt;The ‘Sinhala Majority’ believes whatever the ‘Gang of Four’ tells them,&lt;br /&gt;If you tell the ‘Sinhala Majority’ that there is an ‘International Conspiracy’ to destroy their religion, language and culture, they will believe it, because they are nothing but a bunch of xenophobes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "The greatest purveyor of violence on earth is my own government"&lt;br /&gt;~ Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; The greatest purveyors of violence in the country are the Government and the LTTE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "Those of us who love peace must organize as effectively as the war hawks.

I want to hear somebody asking them why they can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are, but they're never the ones to fight and to die." ~ Jackson Browne&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; It’s the politicians and the Buddhist clergy who urge the gullible ‘slum dog’ village youth to fight and die, and they live in the lap of luxury while their sons and daughters are safely ensconced in foreign countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself... Almost inevitably, he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable." &lt;br /&gt;~ H.L. Mencken &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; There are a few such people here as well. Some have been killed, some have been intimidated, some are in prison, some have migrated in fear of their lives and the rest remain silent because they fear death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote: &lt;/span&gt;"A country whose leader has the power to imprison any citizen, on his order alone, and hold them indefinitely, in military custody, without access to the courts, without a lawyer, without any charges, their fate determined solely by the leader's arbitrary whim -- that country is a tyranny, not a democracy, not a republic, not a union of free citizens." &lt;br /&gt;~ Chris Floyd, The Moscow Times &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; We are sure Mr.Chris Floyd has visited Sri Lanka recently or how could he have described it so accurately?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervour, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar." &lt;br /&gt;~ Julius Caesar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; The ‘Wannabe Caesar’ and his 3 brothers have done just that in this country. Like the Caesar of old, he better be aware of ‘The Ides of March, April, May, June, July etc.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy."&lt;br /&gt;~ Henry Kissinger&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; These dumb, stupid animals are used mainly as pawns and cannon fodder for domestic policy, especially to win elections.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "War is a sociological safety valve that cleverly diverts popular hatred for the ruling classes into a happy occasion to mutilate or kill foreign enemies." &lt;br /&gt;~ Ernest Becker &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; It’s a local enemy (the Tamils) who are mutilated, killed, abducted and bombed into &lt;br /&gt;smithereens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote: &lt;/span&gt;"Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear - kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervour - with the cry of grave national emergency. Always there has been some terrible evil at home or some monstrous foreign power that was going to gobble us up if we did not blindly rally behind it." &lt;br /&gt;~ General Douglas MacArthur, 1957 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; It’s the ‘evil Tamils who want a separate state’ at home, and an ‘International Conspiracy’ that wants to destroy the Sinhalese race, culture and religion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "Why of course the people don't want war ... But after all it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship ... Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger."&lt;br /&gt;~ Hermann Goering, Nazi leader, at the Nuremberg Trials after World War II&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; History is repeating itself in this country. Hitler’s Germany is been reborn as ‘&lt;br /&gt;Mahinda’s Sri Lanka.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the state." &lt;br /&gt;~ Dr. Joseph M. Goebbels - Hitler's propaganda minister&lt;br /&gt;In Sri Lanka: 17 journalists killed…more than 28 beaten up, abducted and intimidated, the countless others who have been imprisoned without a trial, the burning of MTV and destruction of the Sunday Leader printing press is ample proof that the truth is the greatest enemy of the Sri Lankan State.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "We will export death and violence to the four corners of the earth in defence of our great nation." &lt;br /&gt;~ G. W. Bush, former President of the United States &lt;br /&gt;In Sri Lanka: Rajapaksa and his brothers export death and violence to the four corners of the Island in defence of the ‘Rajapaksa Dynasty.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote: &lt;/span&gt;"There is no such thing as a Palestinian people... It is not as if we came and threw them out and took their country. They didn’t exist." &lt;br /&gt;~ Golda Meir&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; There are no such people as Hindus, Christians and Muslims in this country. Sri Lanka is a ‘Sinhala Buddhist’ Country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness." &lt;br /&gt;~ Thomas Jefferson, American Declaration of Independence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; We hold this truth to be self-evident, that the ‘Sinhala Buddhist Majority,’ is more equal than the minority Hindus, Christians and Muslims. And they are endowed by their Creator, with the unalienable right to impose their language, religion and culture on all the minorities; for ever and ever, amen.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-2303758596598585722?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/2303758596598585722/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/04/famous-quotes-and-their-relevance-to.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/2303758596598585722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/2303758596598585722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/04/famous-quotes-and-their-relevance-to.html' title='Famous Quotes And Their Relevance To Sri Lanka'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SfWADWXM7sI/AAAAAAAAB20/YDwXhD6hQhc/s72-c/Autocratic+theocratic+dictatorial+bannana+republic.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-2661426802106199215</id><published>2009-04-27T18:42:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2009-04-27T18:48:22.457+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='about idiot island'/><title type='text'>Walcum Yoo Toe Idiot Island</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SfV-ofRk8gI/AAAAAAAAB2s/ANyR93NMeDs/s1600-h/Tyson+joins+Jathika+Hela+Urumaya.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 315px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SfV-ofRk8gI/AAAAAAAAB2s/ANyR93NMeDs/s400/Tyson+joins+Jathika+Hela+Urumaya.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329304968117940738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From time in memorial, Idiot Island has been a popular holiday resort for thousands of mirthlings from countries like Amerrybum, Asstrailerhaa, Titaly, Joypang, Carryaar, Spawn, Noisy Land, Kanna Daa, Jemini, Fonz etc. An economic down turn that over took Planet Mirth in 2010 AD, has affected many on Idiot Island. The worst affected were the rural Idiot Islanders who decided to turn their houses and ancestral homes into ‘guest houses’ and ‘hotels’ to make ends meet. Reproduced below are four emails, sent to prospective holiday makers, informing them of the facilities they could expect when they arrive on Idiot Island: A land like no other!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Honoured Sir,&lt;br /&gt;I am amazed by your entreaty for a room. I am happy to inform you I have two rooms with a vulgar balcony and excommunicating doors. I can also offer you for your convenience, attached litter rooms with scalding aqueducts.&lt;br /&gt;For the youthful persons there are alluring ways, wild lifes, song and dunces, rustic revelries and very good hospital only 50 miles away. My charges are soo changeable to be all you can afford. If I am dear to you or your mistress, she could perhaps be reduced. I shall myself be strenuous for you, and my wife will mimic me. As for cuisine, my wife is an unapproachable tyrant of the kitchen. A satisfied guest wrote: “I will never to visit other stranger cuntrysides.” Come here soon and you can rest in peace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Waiting attentively for you,&lt;br /&gt;Rintin Da Elvis.&lt;br /&gt;(Chief Execution Officer)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Dear Sir,&lt;br /&gt;I am very pleasing to retort to your asking for my hotel. I am happy that I am empty in the upstairs compartment from 23st of November to 5st December. You will be agreeable that in view of the services my figure is highly modest. There is hot and cold waters running on every floors. If you are wishing a female personage to render you services, we can provide one. Guarantee you money back she render you jolly good. Also boyish male personages we can provide you. Sorrowfully I cannot abide your canine companion, but my mother in law who live opposite house can put up with it.&lt;br /&gt;If you will come here you will certainly be arrested by the local beauties. Me my wife and I will always be at attention. We will make your duration soo dear as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truly Faithfully,&lt;br /&gt;Millyman Morrowgood,&lt;br /&gt;(Managing Dictator)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Sir or Madam,&lt;br /&gt;Having freshly taken over the property of this notorious house, I am wishful that you bring your bag and baggage to my esteemed establishment. Standing amongst savage scenery with flaunting butterflies and songing birds the hotel offers stupendous revelations. There is a French window in every bedroom affording delightful prospects! I give personal look to interior wants of each guest. Here we make sure shall be well &lt;br /&gt;fedup and agreeably drunk. No drunking on full moon day because police catch all drunkers. Having once sampled our local fooding, you will surely wish to enlarge your stays.&lt;br /&gt;We have numerous bedrooms with beds and full drainage. Our charges for weakly visitors are scarcely understandable! We also make peculiar arrangements for gross parties! Our motto is ever “Serve You Right!” Coming soon before bedrooms full up!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watching and waiting,&lt;br /&gt;Cunred Hilltown,&lt;br /&gt;(CEO &amp; Joint Dictator)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Madam,&lt;br /&gt;I am honourable to accept your impossible request. Unhappy it is I have not bedroom with bath. A bathroom with bed I can give. I can though give you a good washing with pleasure in a most clean river down by the riverside with no person to see your naked things. I insist that you will like this. &lt;br /&gt;Your question also to receive beds for twins. For this I have great seeking made without any OK as well from neighbour next door because his wife to this man gives him many childs. This man admits no knowledge about beds for twins. Part of you may sleep in this place while your extras to the neighbour house next door go. It is only throwing a stone away.&lt;br /&gt;All must eat in this haus the cheapest food. We are sorry no beefs or chicken beefs or pig beefs because we are all vegetables here. The fish your man hopes to catch is always in the river. He catch them we cook them you eat them.

At last count there was a population of 20,672,981 people living on the island (give or take a couple of thousand who are permanently rehabilitated or are made to vanish by aliens who travel around the island in White Unidentified Four Wheeled Objects). In the North of Idiot Island there live another 3,00,000 of the Tranquil tribe, who have taken an extended holiday in the Fullofthieves Jungle. It has been claimed, that these Tranquil holidaymakers are having a whale of a time, dodging malted barren lockets and custard buns dropped from the sky. Peacekeeping Comedian Brigadier Uliar P. Norkiyokaara told reporters that this was a part of an International Conspiracy, to tarnish the image of the Utopian Paradise. He stated that International Conspirators were using low flying satellites to drop these fireworks devices on innocent Tranquil tribes people who were holidaying in the Fullofthieves Jungle. He further stated that a special police team had been set up to capture these satellites and bring them to justice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Idiot Island has had a long and colourful history with plenty of murder and mayhem that has continued even in present times. From time immemorial, it has been known by many names. Piss drop under Hindeeyar, The last drop under Hindeeyar's Tip, Island of Hypocrites’, Land of the Xenophobes, etc, but never as "That Blasted Island!"  Idiot Island boasts of a curious 3500-year-old culture, and its population are followers of five distinct cults. They are the Boobees, Himboobees, Crossboobees, Moosboobees and Parleymutts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Boobees are the majority cult, consisting of 69% of the population, with 18% Himboobees,7% Moosboobees and 6% Crossboobees. The Parleymutts are a breed of their own. They all hate each other’s guts, except when it comes to election time, when the Parleymutts promise the ‘moon and the stars’ in return for the votes of the gullible Idiot Islanders. During elections, the Polytikboobees follow the theory of an Earthling called Abraham Lincoln, who lived many years ago on Planet Earth. The theory (with a small twist) being, “You can fool some of the people on Planet Mirth all of the time; and all of the people on Planet Mirth some of the time; but you can fool all the Idiot Islanders, each and every time!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Idiot Island is an ‘Utopian Paradise’ ruled by a caretaker called Jollyass Seesaw, along with his three Righteous Brothers. This ‘Quadrumvirate of Brothers’ (called the ‘Gang of Four’ and ‘War Lord Millionaires’ by some), rule Idiot Island with eight velvet gloves; just like the ‘Triumvirate’ of Caesar, Pompey and Crassus, who ruled the Roman Empire on Planet Earth hundreds of years ago. This ‘Gang of Four’, is now in the midst of a ‘Humanitarian Crusade’ against the ‘Liberal Tourists of Tranquil Elysium’, who have been agitating for a separate ‘Tranquil Tourist Resort’ in the North and East of Idiot Island, for the past 26 years. Agitating on one side is the majority Stinkerlees tribe, and on the other side is the minority Tranquil tribe. The Stinkerlees tribe say that Idiot Island belongs to them because they arrived first on the island, and the Tranquil tribe says that part of the island should belong to them because they arrived second on the island, a couple of years later. None of the two agitating tribes believe in ‘Consultation, Compromise and Consensus.’ They instead believe in ‘Murder, Mayhem and Media suppression’, which both tribes have practiced to perfection with outstanding results. The caretakers of both these tribes are front-runners for the ‘Ignoble Prize for Peace’, and many pundits agree that the prize should be jointly awarded to Jollyass Seesaw caretaker of the Stinkerlees and to Rolypoly Prebiocarrom caretaker of the ‘Liberal Tourists of Tranquil Elysium’ and sole representative of the Tranquils.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Idiot Island has had more elections than any other country on Mirth, with probably the exception of Bolivia on Planet Earth. The former caretaker Queen Cleopottaya was popularly known as “One Eyed Jane”, “That Crazy Woman”, “The Mummy”, “Man’s Best Friend”(the female version) etc. (You should have heard what her enemies called her). She preferred men with moustaches or beards, but would settle for anything with two legs. Her late brother was named after the airport and looked like a 747.&lt;br /&gt;The present caretaker has a smarmy look, and goes around the country wearing a white outfit with a purple towel around his neck, banging his chest and shouting ‘MOTHERLAND’ until he is blue in the face! The purple towel is worn as a precaution, so he can stuff it in his mouth when he finds himself making remarks like, “I will permanently rehabilitate all the Tranquils” when various human wrongs organisations inquire from him about the situation of the Tranquil tribe holidaying in the Fullofthieves Jungle. Caretaker Seesaw has achieved cult status amongst the majority Stinkerlees tribe since he started the Humanitarian Crusade, and the repeated chanting of the prayer, “Jollyass Seesaw is the one God, and Atilla Da Goatproxy is his Prophet!” can be heard daily from many parts of the island except of course in the North and East of Idiot Island where the Tranquil tribe who are in the majority their chant, “Prebiocarrom is the Sun God, and Prebio Junior is his Successor!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Idiot Island was first colonized by a Prince and his followers from Hindeeyar, who were considered persona non grata in the land of their birth (In other words it meant that, ‘They were kicked out of Hindeeyar!’)  They arrived on Idiot Island as refugees about 3500 years ago (give or take a couple of hundred years). Following in their footsteps in much recent times were the Vietnamese boat people and thousands of Cuban refugees from Planet Earth, who fled the Infidel Castro’s regime for the safe haven of America and other free countries.&lt;br /&gt;The refugee Prince and his Stinkerlees refugee followers became Boobees later (much, much later). Next to arrive were the Tranquil tribe. They had various skirmishes with the Stinkerlees  tribe, and mainly inhabited the North and the East of Idiot Island. The Moosboobees came as traders from Muddled Eastern countries, while some came from countries like Hindohaysia and Mollyhaysia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After them came the Portlygees, Dutchygees and Britygees who governed Idiot Island each in their turn for about 450 years. The Portlygees introduced the Crossboobee cult, Portlygees music and several Portlygees words to the local language. The Dutchygees introduced printing and built excellent canals, which now function as sewers. The canals are worth a visit. A perfumed handkerchief is usually sufficient to combat the stench. On a good day it is possible to spot a few dead cats floating (if you were on Idiot Island in the late 1980s AD, you could have seen many permanently rehabilitated bodies floating as well). Don't forget to take your digital camera! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Britygees introduced Democrazy, the Parlymutts system and the Britygees language while teaching the Idiot Islanders to switch from wearing the loincloth, to the trousers. Today most men wear Britygees style clothes and it might be difficult to spot a man wearing the national dress. Most Idiot Islanders wear a long cloth wrapped around their waists. As underwear is not usually worn with it, do not be tempted to lift somebody’s long cloth!&lt;br /&gt;In 1948 AD, the Britygees went back to Britybum and left the Idiot Islanders to run riot. Some Idiots called this Indepen Dunce. A few others called this a watershed in the history of Idiot Island. In the Britygeees language it meant that, “The shit hit the fan!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the Britygees left, the “All Tribes Party” ruled Idiot Island. This party consisted of people from all the tribes. The country meandered along smoothly until 1956 AD, when a new party called the “Stinkerlees Only Party” came to power. This party was made up largely of the majority Stinkerlees tribe, who had the grandiose notion that Idiot Island belonged only to them; and that they had exclusive rights over the Himboobees, Crossboobees and Moosboobee minority cults.&lt;br /&gt;For example, &lt;br /&gt;a) The Stinkerlees language of the was made the national language &lt;br /&gt;b) It was compulsory to know the Stinkerlees language if you wanted to be promoted in the public sector &lt;br /&gt;c) The Boobee cult was given pride of place over the other cults &lt;br /&gt;d) The killing of cattle for sale as meat, and liquor was banned every full moon, while all film halls remained closed, and all forms of entertainment were frowned upon on this day (Funnily enough, the ‘Humanitarian Crusade’ continues unabated every full moon with hundreds being permanently rehabilitated; this is because on Idiot Island, the lives of cattle is more precious than the lives of human beings.)&lt;br /&gt;e) Private Crossboobee schools were nationalized &lt;br /&gt;f) At the university entrance exam, Stinkerlees students where given preference over Tranquil students &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These were just a few of the idiotic laws forced on the minority tribes and cult followers of Idiot Island. The leader of the “Stinkerlees Only Party” was the father of the previous caretaker, Queen Cleopottaya. He turned Idiot Island on its head with his chauvinistic policies, which favoured the majority Stinkerlees and infringed on the rights of the minority tribes and cult followers. A Boobee cult priest permanently rehabilitated him about three years later, which gave the minority tribes some solace (talk about poetic justice). But things didn’t get any better. His wife cried a river of crocodile tears and was elected as the next caretaker of Idiot Island. (People probably voted for her to stop her whining.) Things went from bad to worse when Stinkerlees youth in the south revolted against her caretakership. They were peacefully suppressed. In other words it means that over ten thousand youth were permanently rehabilitated. (If the present caretaker Seesaw had been caretaker then, he would have called this a ‘Humanitarian Crusade.’) A few years later the minority Tranquil youth followed suit. This culminated in the hollercurse of July1983 AD, when the majority Stinkerlees tribe went on the rampage and permanently rehabilitated over 2500 Tranquil tribes people, while lighting fires to their houses and business establishment’s. What followed was a 26-year ‘Humanitarian Crusade’, which has ripped Idiot Island apart. There was a shaky “If You Don’t Fire We Wont Fire” agreement that was in existence for about three years. Then a giant wave also known as a Soonarmee, struck three quarter of the coast of Idiot Island the day after Crossboobeemas of 2004 AD. Ironically that day happened to be a full moon day (a day sacred to the majority Stinkerlees and followers of the Boobee cult). Over fifty thousand Idiot Islanders were permanently rehabilitated. They were from the Boobee, Himboobee, Crossboobee and Moosboobee cults…(Only nature treat’s everyone equally). No one knows if any Parleymutts were permanently rehabilitated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ‘Humanitarian Crusade’ between the Stinkerlees tribe and the Tranquil tribe resumed again in 2006 AD. Hundreds of Stinkerlees and thousands of Tranquil tribes people have been permanently rehabilitated due to the humanitarian agitation by both tribes. A wise old Idiot Islander, told reporters that there was nothing sacred or holy about this ‘Humanitarian Crusade.’ He said that it was nothing more than, “Our tourists permanently rehabilitating their tourists and their tourists permanently rehabilitating our tourists!” He further stated that, “Agitating for Peace was like Jiggy Jiggying for Virginity!” Hmmm…that seems quite a shrewd observation for a person who comes from an island of idiots…we wonder why he isn’t ruling the island instead of those four idiots from the same family. It must be because, just like ‘Birds of a feather, flock together”, “Idiots eventually end up voting for Idiots.” If this trend continues, the wise old idiot will one day be the ‘Greatest caretaker that never ruled Idiot Island!’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what does the future hold for the Idiot Islanders? Will they shed their idiocy and become wise someday? Will the ‘Humanitarian Crusade’ bring peace? Will the ‘International Conspiracy’ to tarnish the image of the Utopian Paradise succeed? Will a low flying satellite rescue tourist leader Rolypoly Prebiocarrom? Will aliens in ‘White Unidentified Four Wheeled Objects’ (WUFOs) continue to make Tranquil tribes people vanish at random and permanently rehabilitate them? Will journalists and editors continue to be permanently rehabilitated, and TV stations burnt down by ‘International Conspirators?’ Will the headlines on deadlines be accurate, this time around? Will there be more ‘Final Crusades?’ Will the number of ‘Nation Building Parleymutts’ exceed twenty by years end? Will the number of “Mansion Building Parleymutts” exceed 225 by the end of next year? Will seaside bummers target innocent sunbathers? Will the legalization of polygamy, and the banning of bigamy bring an end to the population explosion? Will pigs’ fly and Hell freeze over? Will forced vegetarianism be a solution for violence? When do we break for lunch? Can I have a beer before lunch? Will there be prawns with the rice and curry, or fried beef? What’s for desert? Ice cream? Fruit Salad?&lt;br /&gt;“What? No beef? No beer?”&lt;br /&gt;“The management regrets that due to it being a full moon day, there will be no beer or beef today. Sir, how about some vegetables with rice while lunch is being prepared? Why don’t you watch the ‘breaking news’ of the dropping of custard buns on a tranquil tourist resort by air force jets permanently rehabilitating over 40 tourists?”&lt;br /&gt;“Vegetables? The whole lot of you are a bunch of bloody vegetables if you ask me! The Gods must have been crazy…or drunk or stoned when they created you all!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Que Sera! Sera! What ever will be…will be…the future’s not ours to see…. Que Sera! Sera! What ever will be…will be! The answer my friend…is blowing in the wind…the answer is blowing in the wind! Que Sera! Sera!

but because some years back when the Australian team refused to tour Sri Lanka due to the unstable situation in the country, and the South African team cut their tour short after a bomb blast in Colombo, the blind patriots and cricket pundits in the country started taking pot shots at the Australians and the South Africans. To them, bomb blasts and violence was as natural as the plain tea and rice they had everyday. If you happened to die from a bomb blast, it was due to fate and something beyond your control. And God have mercy on the country or individual who said that Sri Lanka was not a safe country. The wrath of the majority would be turned against that country or individual. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second reason I laughed was because, even after India had done a threat assessment and decided that it was not safe for its cricket team to travel to Pakistan; and even after the Mini World Cup had been cancelled in Pakistan by the ICC after another threat assessment had been done, the SL Cricket Board and the SL Government thumbed their noses at the ICC and India and decided to tour Pakistan. The result was the attack on the SL Cricketers, and if not for a brave Pakistani driver, there might have been a bigger disaster than what took place. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder who is laughing now? Most probably the South Africans and the Australians along with Shane Warne who were vilified in the local press a few years ago. &lt;br /&gt;There were probably two reasons that the SL Cricket Board and the SL Government agreed to tour Pakistan. In the case of the SL Cricket Board it was for monetary reasons, and in the case of the SL Government, it was to thank the Pakistani Government for selling them arms to fight the LTTE and the Tamils. It looks like the SL Cricket Board was only thinking of filling its empty coffers, and the SL Government was willing to put its cricketers at risk to curry favour with the Pakistani’s and snub India (who incidentally don’t sell offensive weapons to Sri Lanka). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There seemed to be quite an outpouring of shock and grief in Sri Lanka over what the cricketers had to endure in Pakistan. The irony and the hypocrisy of it all is that non of these very same people seem to give two hoots about the hundreds of Tamil civilians who are being killed and wounded in the north due to the bombings by the SL armed forces. One can only imagine the hue and cry that would have been raised if even one Sinhalese cricketer had been killed in the attack. So far the SL Government hasn’t directly blamed the LTTE for the attack like it does in Sri Lanka for anything that happens from the lack of rain, to the increase of petrol prices to the killings of editors, journalists and burning of television stations. They have also not called the attack ‘An International Conspiracy to tarnish the image of the Government’ like they have done in the recent past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What nobody knows is whether the attack on the SL cricketers by an unidentified Jihadists group, could have been a ‘proxy attack’ on behalf of the LTTE or the Government of India. In the case of the LTTE it could have been in revenge for the killing of Tamil civilians from incessant shelling and multi barrel rocket attacks by the SL Government, and in the case of India, it could be in revenge for the Mumbai attacks, which were planned in Pakistan. This is mere speculation, but anything is possible in this wonderful world we live in today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One good thing that may come out of the attack is that in future if countries like Australia, South Africa, England or New Zealand decide to cancel a tour due to security reasons, countries like Sri Lanka will think twice before trying to vilify those countries. People in the above mentioned countries value the lives of their citizens more than in third world countries like Sri Lanka. If such an attack, which occurred against the SL cricket team, happened to any of the teams of the above-mentioned countries, heads would have rolled and people responsible for organising the tour would have voluntarily resigned. But in Sri Lanka, its business as usual with bribery, corruption and kickbacks from arms deals going full speed ahead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there was money to be made, the SL Cricket Board would organize a tour to even the North Pole, and the SL Government would send the cricket team to Somalia or Afghanistan if those countries were willing to sell them arms and ammunition to fight the LTTE and the Tamils.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The way things look at the moment it’s more than likely that the 2011 World Cup will be held in Australia and New Zealand. As long as maximum power is not devolved to the Tamils of Sri Lanka, as long as India does not give autonomy to the Kashmir population, and as long as various Jihadist groups operate in Pakistan, there is going to be security threats to all cricket teams that tour these countries. Future cricket tours will probably take place in neutral venues like Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and Asia wont be able to host a World Cup for a very long time. Like they say, its better to be safe than sorry. (Thank God for Cable TV).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ps: A story doing the rounds is that the attack on the SL cricketers targeting players like Sangakara, Mahela, Samaraweera and Vaas was masterminded by Sanath Jayasuriya so that there would be no one left to appoint as captain except for himself, is nothing but a malicious rumour. Also the targeting of Tharanga Parnavithana who may have been a threat to Jayasuriya’s slot as an opening batsman is also just another rumour. &lt;br /&gt;“No such rumours or attacks will deter me from playing until the 2039 World Cup,” said Sanath Jayasuriya when questioned by a reporter.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-1296109002839147924?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/1296109002839147924/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/03/i-laughed-aloud-twice-when-i-heard.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/1296109002839147924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/1296109002839147924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/03/i-laughed-aloud-twice-when-i-heard.html' title='I Laughed Aloud Twice When I Heard About The Attack On The Sri Lankan Cricket Team'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/Sb4VfRPO5OI/AAAAAAAAByo/OlmogGpekXU/s72-c/cricket+and+violence.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-3770322153530384993</id><published>2009-03-16T17:23:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2012-01-10T15:42:42.715+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about  sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about the war in sri lanka'/><title type='text'>INTERESTING BOOKS THAT MAY NEVER EVER BE PUBLISHED</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/Sb4PsypusJI/AAAAAAAAByY/aUvuitg_JaU/s1600-h/Humanitarian+War.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 272px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/Sb4PsypusJI/AAAAAAAAByY/aUvuitg_JaU/s400/Humanitarian+War.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313701872529223826" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I Was The First Tamil President of Sri Lanka" by Barakamesh Obamasingham.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"An advanced guide to Hedging” by Ashantha de Mel. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The Mihin Air Miracle” by Sir Richard Branson with a forward by Hon.Sajin Vaas&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Lap Dog Millionaire" by Wimal Weerawansa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Mahinda is the one God &amp; Gotabaya is his Prophet" by A.H.M.

I did not know him personally, but I admired his fearless reporting and enjoyed reading his many exposes about corruption in the government and the military. Terrorism in Sri Lanka raised its head in the 1970s and again in the 1980s and has continued unabated since. But state sponsored terrorism has plagued this country since independence. State repression by various governments has been the cause for most of the country’s ills since 1948. When State Terrorism is defeated, other forms of terrorism will die a natural death. While thinking of the depths this country has sunk to since independence, I was reminded of George Orwell’s famous novel “1984.” The characters in his novel were lucky in that they had to contend with only one villain who was called “Big Brother.” But the unfortunate people of this country have to contend with a “Quadrumvirate of Brothers” and their armed goons. Let us sincerely hope that this “Autocratic Theocratic Dictatorship” that we live in today, will someday soon become a “Democratic Republic” where each one of us is guaranteed the right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Mister Rogerproxys Monty Barren Lockets and Custard Buns&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Idiot Island on Planet Mirth (2016 AD):&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Global Recession on Planet Mirth has reached an all time low. Foreign exchange has dwindled to a trickle and Idiot Island is on the verge of bankruptcy due to a long drawn out ‘Humanitarian War’ that has entered it’s 35th year. The Dictatorship decides to take the bull by the horns and makes drastic cost cuts in all its ministries. &lt;br /&gt;The four telephone operators at the Dictators Palace are the first to be laid off, and the hotline is taken over by the Foreign Ministers 10-year-old niece who had arrived on the Island for the Christmas holidays from the Peoples Autocratic Dictatorship of Shyna.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Hello, operator! Have there been any messages for me?”&lt;br /&gt;“Just a minute, let me check…er…no nothing here. Oh wait here’s one. It’s from a Mr.Prebio…a Mr.Prebiocarrom. He says…”&lt;br /&gt;“Prebiocarrom?

P-R-E-B-I-O-C-A-R-R-O-M. Do you want the message or don’t you? I’ve got other calls here and I’m all alone at the switch board as the other four girls have been laid off!”&lt;br /&gt;“What is the message?”&lt;br /&gt;“It says you are to remove your monty barren lockets and custard buns from Killernoosee by…”&lt;br /&gt;“Monty barren lockets and custard buns? Are you sure it says monty barren lockets and custard buns?”&lt;br /&gt;“Yes, that’s what the message says. Why, don’t you have any monty barren lockets and custard buns in Killernoosee?”&lt;br /&gt;“Are you certain…maybe you made a mistake?”&lt;br /&gt;“No…let me spell it out for you…its M-O-N-T-Y  B-A-R-R-E-N  L-O-C-K-E-T-S&lt;br /&gt;and  C-U-S-T-A-R-D  B-U-N-S…to be removed from  K-I-L-L-E-R-N-O-O-S-E-E. He wants you to remove them by…by…tossday…or is it thosayday, I can’t make it out. One of the other girls took down the message before she was laid off. Anyway he wants you to remove them from Killernoosee either by toosday or thosayday or something or the other, otherwise he’s going to…”&lt;br /&gt;“Yes? Otherwise he’s going to what?”&lt;br /&gt;“Can you hold on, I’ve got another call.”&lt;br /&gt;“Hello? Operator? Hello? Hello?”&lt;br /&gt;“Oh, hello! Thank you for…for holding Mister Rogerproxy…” &lt;br /&gt;“Roger who? Oh, never mind…could you please just read the rest of the message?”&lt;br /&gt;“It says you are to remove your monty barren lockets and custard buns from Killernoosee by tossday or thosayday or whatever or he will bum Koolumber into smitheroons!”&lt;br /&gt;“Oh shoot! I’m sorry!”&lt;br /&gt;“Sorry for what?”&lt;br /&gt;“This message isn’t for you Mister Rogerproxy. It’s for a Mister Goatproxy.”&lt;br /&gt;“WHAT?”&lt;br /&gt;“It’s for a Mister Goatproxy. That’s what it says. I didn’t take the message my self. It was taken by one of the other girls. I guess it just got into your inbox by mistake. Sorry. No messages for you today, Mister Rogerproxy.

It does not rain on Idiot Island. When it does occasionally do, the rain is directed to where the Tranquil Tourists are operating. We have designated a 3500 square kilometre ‘No Rain Zone’ (also known as the ‘Dry Zone’) and we urge all Tranquil tribes people including wild animals and any living creature of the Fullofthieves jungle to move into this area to avoid being drenched by ‘Humanitarian showers.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;See &amp; End:&lt;/span&gt;  What have you got to say about rumours that warn of Tranquil tribes people in the Fullofthieves jungle facing a severe shortage of essential items?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Brig YP:&lt;/span&gt;     This is incorrect. We have sent several truck loads of umbrellas and rain coats to the Tranquil tribes people. We have also sent them a supply of soap, shampoo and towels so that if by chance they do get caught in any showers, they could take a refreshing bath and dry them selves off. Yesterday we sent a fresh supply of vitamin C and cough syrup to be used by those who have caught cold, bronchitis and pneumonia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;See &amp; End:&lt;/span&gt; The Tranquil Tourists website tranquilnet.con claims that several Humanitarian soldiers have contracted bronchitis and many have died of pneumonia due to the heavy rain showers directed towards them by the Tranquil Tourists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Brig YP:  &lt;/span&gt;    That is a bare faced lie. Our heroic Humanitarian forces are immune to these diseases. They have also been equipped with quality umbrellas and rain coats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;See &amp; End:&lt;/span&gt;  What about thunder and lighting?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Brig YP:&lt;/span&gt;      Our Humanitarian forces wear thick rubber soled shoes and they have been instructed not to stand under trees when there’s  thunder and lighting. We will capture the whole of the North Pole Land in a few days and no showers or thunderstorms will stop our progress. We shall march through hill and dale…through valleys and mountains…Westward Ho! Sorry about being carried away, what I meant to say was, ‘North Pole Land! Here we come!’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;See &amp; End:&lt;/span&gt;  So who is responsible for the showers that have been falling on the Tranquil tribes people in the Fullofthieves jungle?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Brig YP:&lt;/span&gt;      There is an ‘International Conspiracy’ to push rain clouds using giant fans towards areas where the Tranquil tribes people are holidaying to discredit the forward march of our heroic Humanitarian forces. We have also received reliable information that the weather Gods are conspiring against us and assisting the ‘International Conspirators.’ We recently observed a low flying satellite that tried to rescue the Tranquil Tourist Leader, Rolypoly Prebiocarrom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;See &amp; End:&lt;/span&gt;  Just one final question. Sources close to us say that you had rice and curry for lunch today. Would you like to comment?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Brig YP: &lt;/span&gt;     This is incorrect. It’s a categorical lie. This is not just a lie, but also a damned lie! If they show you statistics, don’t believe them! This is another ‘International Conspiracy’ that has been hatched to discredit our forward march. I have satellite images to prove that I did not have rice and curry for lunch. I actually ordered a pizza with mozzarella cheese and spicy chicken…. with…. a sprinkling of…. and…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;See &amp; End:&lt;/span&gt;  Thank…thank you…Brigadier Youliar…that will be all.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-5163326362696139273?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/5163326362696139273/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/02/interview-with-comedian.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/5163326362696139273'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/5163326362696139273'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/02/interview-with-comedian.html' title='Interview with a Comedian'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SaU8qpk56rI/AAAAAAAABvg/7AGlO_sEarA/s72-c/Interview+with+a+Comedian.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-3405720784726587681</id><published>2009-02-25T21:21:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2009-02-25T21:26:50.335+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='enjoy life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='drink and be merry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eat'/><title type='text'>You are my Brother and you are my Sister</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SaU49Ffz_NI/AAAAAAAABvY/XT4GjfKK5AA/s1600-h/You+are+my+Brother+and+Sister.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

and Prabahakaran was President of the country and Rajapaksa was the leader of a terrorist group called the ‘Liberation Lions of Sinhala Eelam’ (LLST) fighting for a separate Sinhala state in the South?&lt;br /&gt;answer: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) There would probably be a war similar to the on going one. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) President Prabahakaran and his supporters would euphemistically call the war a ‘Humanitarian Operation.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Rajapaksa’s suicide bombers would be called ‘Bloodthirsty Lions.’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) ‘Orange Vans’ would abduct Sinhala civilians suspected of being Lion terrorists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) Tamil journalists who report about the war would be abducted, beaten and killed; and maybe a few newspaper presses and TV stations would be torched.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The list is endless. I leave it up to the readers’ imagination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if….&lt;br /&gt;the LTTE tried to form a separate state in Hell?&lt;br /&gt;answer: The devil would probably seek political asylum in Sri Lanka.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if …&lt;br /&gt;Bin Ladan owned Sri Lanka and Hell?&lt;br /&gt;answer: He would rent out Sri Lanka and live in Hell! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;the sale of cigarettes and alcohol was banned in Sri Lanka?&lt;br /&gt;answer: People would turn to smoking illegal cigarettes and drinking kassippu (moonshine). The Government would lose billions in tax revenue. More people would fall ill by consuming substandard liquor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;it was compulsory that all the people in Sri Lanka had to attend a temple, church, mosque or kovil at least once a day?&lt;br /&gt;answer: There would be peace and harmony in Sri Lanka…there would be a heaven on earth….paradise lost will have been found ( ha! ha! ha! only in your dreams! For the time being, your dreams are your own, so dream on until the ‘Rogerproxy Government’ finds a way to censor your dreams!) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;Sri Lanka ruled the World?&lt;br /&gt;answer: &lt;br /&gt;1) Sri Lanka would invade any country that sold meat and alcohol and kept film halls open on the full moon poya day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) It would be illegal to slaughter cattle for consumption on full moon poya days, but legal to bomb suspected terrorists targets with cluster bombs and multi barrel rockets. &lt;br /&gt;      &lt;br /&gt;3) Only Buddhist programmes would be shown on televisions around the world, 8 days a week, 465 days a year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) American women would work as housemaids in Sri Lanka. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) The rupee would be the World currency. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6) Sinhala would be the lingua franca of the world. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7) Sri Lanka would issue green cards to people around the world, to live and work in the country. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8) Amaradeva and Nandamalini would out sell Eminem and Madonna in record sales! There would be an influx of economic refugees and political asylum seekers in the country!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9) People around the world will celebrate when Baramesh Obamasingham (a minority Tamil) is voted President of Sri Lanka.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10) The nations allied to Sri Lanka would be: Zimbabwe, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Cuba, Iran, China ect. The ‘Axis of Evil’ nations would be India, America, all EU nations, Australia, Canada and any country that had a substantial amount of Tamils living there.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;Chandrika Kumaranatunga had been a man, and Ranil Wickramasinghe had been a woman?&lt;br /&gt;answer: It wouldn’t have made much of a difference!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;50 odd years ago, Prabahakaran’s father had worn a condom?&lt;br /&gt;answer: There would still be a Tamil problem! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;Sharks used fishing rods to catch humans?&lt;br /&gt;answer: They would use currency notes as bait! (Preferably US$ or Euros)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;the eating of pork was no longer banned in Islamic countries?&lt;br /&gt;answer: Pigs would seek asylum on the moon, and the rest would become extinct in a few years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;Every time a Politician told a lie to the people or broke his promise, a ‘White Van’ abducted him and beat him up unmercifully?&lt;br /&gt;answer: This could happen only in your dreams or only if God was on the side of the general public and operated his own fleet of  ‘White Vans.’ &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;Sri Lanka was invaded by Aliens?&lt;br /&gt;answer: The Government would contact Will Smith! Politicians would call it an International Conspiracy to discredit the government and do away with our sovereignty and territorial integrity! The silent minority would welcome the Aliens with open arms!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if…&lt;br /&gt;At independence in 1948, there were no majorities or minorities, only 5million Buddhists, 5 million Hindus, 5 million Christians and 5 million Muslims? &lt;br /&gt;answer: &lt;br /&gt;1) There would be no ‘Humanitarian War’ today.&lt;br /&gt;2) All religions would be given equal status instead of one religion being given pride of place. &lt;br /&gt;3) The Sinhala, Tamil and English languages would all be national languages.&lt;br /&gt;4) No single community could dominate the other communities and impose their language, religion or culture on the others. &lt;br /&gt;5) There would truly be ‘Unity in Diversity’ in the country and there would have been no need for me to start a blog called &lt;a href="http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com"&gt;srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-4987319275617744606?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/4987319275617744606/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/02/what-if.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/4987319275617744606'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/4987319275617744606'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/02/what-if.html' title='What if?'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SaU2dvHylFI/AAAAAAAABvI/4PJ1Eko266U/s72-c/What+if.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-6042608812307480283</id><published>2009-02-25T21:02:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2009-02-25T21:10:35.970+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='war in sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about the war in sri lanka'/><title type='text'>What goes around, comes around</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SaU1EVsQ0DI/AAAAAAAABvA/W2cg5uCF08E/s1600-h/what+goes+around+comes+around.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

As I was not a Sri Lankan cricket fan, (I’m a fan of Australia, South Africa and Pakistan. But I think I’m beginning to like this new look Indian team) I gleefully replied, “Sri Lanka is Bowling, and India is batting.” A minute later I received another sms that said, “Isn’t there any way we could have avoided this?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;YES THERE WAS!&lt;/span&gt; The simple solution is to have handled this cricket tournament the way the Sri Lanka Government has been handling the war against the Tamils…oops sorry, what I meant to say was ‘Humanitarian Operation’ to save the Tamils. And that is to look at all their problems as nails that have to be hit over the head with a hammer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the Sri Lanka Cricket Board needed to do was take a leaf out of the book of the Sri Lanka Defence Ministry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) The Cricket Board could have asked the Indian cricket manager to call over at the Cricket Board.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) The Cricket Board secretary could then have warned the Indian manager that if his team scored more than 150 runs in any of the 5 one day matches, it would be detrimental to the players health.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3)  If these instructions were not followed, and the Indian team continued winning, about twenty armed men could have stormed the Taj hotel at about 2 am in the morning and set fire to it. (The Taj is where the Indian team resides during each tour to Sri Lank).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) If the Indian team still kept on posting 300 plus scores, four assassins on motor bikes wearing full faced helmets could have been sent to assassinate the Indian coach in broad day light as he was driving his vehicle to the grounds, and call the killing an ‘International Conspiracy’ to tarnish the image of the Cricket Board.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) The last resort would have been to abduct a few of the star Indian cricketers in ‘White Vans’ and beat them up so that they couldn’t bat or bowl.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;May be in future home tours, the Cricket Board may resort to the above rules when playing against opposition that is stronger than them. One tends to wonder if any of these rules were put into practice prior to the last match against the Indians when the Lankan team won a consolation victory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(A story doing the rounds that the Sri Lankan selectors have included local umpires Kumar Darmasena and Gamini Silva as their 12th and 13th players for the World Cup squad is nothing more than a malicious rumour)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, congratulations Dohni and the team for a great tournament. Here’s hoping that your team reaches the semi finals in 2011 World Cup along with the Australian, South African and Pakistan teams.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-1457702034636939412?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/1457702034636939412/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/02/how-sri-lanka-cricket-team-could-have.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/1457702034636939412'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/1457702034636939412'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2009/02/how-sri-lanka-cricket-team-could-have.html' title='How the Sri Lanka Cricket Team Could Have Avoided A Four One Defeat At The Hands Of The Indians?'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SaUfWEKVGII/AAAAAAAABug/FpMQjc7KVYk/s72-c/How+the+Sri+Lankan+Cricket+team+could+have.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529379072217818324.post-3836317233116416641</id><published>2009-02-25T19:13:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2009-02-25T19:26:52.591+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='war in sri lanka'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humour about the war in sri lanka'/><title type='text'>A look at present day Sri Lanka through famous quotes slightly changed</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SaUcwYyXagI/AAAAAAAABuY/WARARp3nkyk/s1600-h/Famous+quotes+slightly+changed.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 274px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SaUcwYyXagI/AAAAAAAABuY/WARARp3nkyk/s400/Famous+quotes+slightly+changed.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306679353538996738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Points to ponder for the majority in Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote: &lt;/span&gt;Truth is the first casualty of war!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; Apart from Truth, Journalists, Newspaper Editors and TV Stations are the first casualties of war!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote: &lt;/span&gt;Hatred ceases not by hatred, but by love; that is the eternal truth! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; Hatred ceases not by hatred, nor by bus bombs or MIG bombs, nor by fire bombing of TV stations nor the killing of journalists, but by the maximum devolution of power, that is the eternal truth!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Famous Quote:&lt;/span&gt; It isn’t over until the fat lady sings!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;In Sri Lanka:&lt;/span&gt; It isn’t over until the PTA (Prevention of Terrorism Act) is abolished; high security zones done away with, checkpoints dismantled and the armed forces confined to their barracks!

Thou shall not paint the &lt;strong&gt;“White House” BLACK!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Thou shall not order piano manufactures to paint the white piano keys black!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Thou shall not change or prohibit words starting with ‘black,’ like black eye, blackhead, black hole, black jack, blacklist, black market, black sheep, blackguard or blackmail!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Thou shall honour thy father and mother and all the non-black voters who voted you President!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Thou shall not appoint the &lt;strong&gt;Rev. Jeremiah Wright,&lt;/strong&gt; Secretary of State or &lt;strong&gt;Louis Farrakhan&lt;/strong&gt; Commander of the US Armed Forces!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.

Thou shall not have talks with Iran, Cuba or North Korea without pre-conditions!&lt;br /&gt;e.g. (Beer and Bourbon during morning discussions on “Weapons of Mass Destruction,” Cuban cigars and brandy after lunch and a few well rolled joints and some Iranian Hashish during discussions after lunch!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Thou shall not smoke grass or snort coke in the “White House!” (outside the White House is ok though!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. Thou shall build a temple to venerate the Goddess &lt;strong&gt;“Oprah Winfrey”&lt;/strong&gt; who helped nullify the &lt;strong&gt;“Bradley Effect”&lt;/strong&gt; with the &lt;strong&gt;“Oprah Effect!”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;These 10 Commandments I have given thee.

People the world over are calling Barrack O’Bummer the 1st Black President of the USA! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are these people blind or crazy or both? Barrack O’Bummer’s mother is white and his father (a Kenyan) is black! A child gets half his chromosomes from his mother and the other half from his father! In my book that makes Barrack O’Bummer the first half black/half white President of the USA!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those people around the world who hate America and have branded it a racist country, the election results prove that the vast majority of Americans are not racist! The only way Barrack O’Bummer could have won was with a majority of the white votes. The Black and Hispanic votes would not have been enough to win him the Presidency. The white voters of America proved the world wrong, and the “Bradley Effect” did not come into play after all!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those of you who do not know what the Bradley effect is:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;(The Bradley effect, less commonly called the Wilder effect, is a theory proposed to explain observed discrepancies between voter opinion polls and election outcomes in some US government elections where a white candidate and a non-white candidate run against each other. Instead of ascribing the results to flawed methodology on the part of the pollster, the theory proposes that some voters tend to tell pollsters that they are undecided or likely to vote for a black candidate, and yet, on election day, vote for his white opponent. It was named after Tom Bradley, an African-American who lost the 1982 California governor’s race despite being ahead in voter polls going into the elections.) &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 64 million dollar question that has been doing the rounds since Barrack O’Bummer’s victory is, “Will Barrack O’Bummer paint the White House, Black, and rename it the Black House?” Well the answer to that is, as Barrack O’Bummer is half black/half white, he will probably paint one half of the “White House” black and keep the other half white, and rename it the “Half Black Half White House!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The other question doing the rounds is, “Will Barrack O’Bummer bring a law that will force piano manufactures to paint all the white keys on pianos black?” The logical answer to that is, What part of Barrack O’Bummer brain is his most dominant side?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His black side or his white side? If it is his white side, he will leave the pianos as they are now with all white keys, and black keys for the sharps and flats! But if his dominant side is his back side, oops sorry, I meant black side, then he would probably have all the white keys painted black and the black sharps and flat keys painted white!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets keep our fingers crossed! Who knows what is going on in his half white/half black brain? I wonder which side of his brain is the more dominant? The left side or the right side? The black side or the white side? Is the black side the right side and the white side left or vice versa? Hmmm...another 64 million dollar question!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Breaking News just in: All Black Women in the USA are shaving their pubic hair off in support of Barrack O’Bummer’s election as President! Their message to the world is, “READ OUR LIPS! NO MORE BUSH!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m fed up to the eyeballs with the love fest that the media has been having with Barrack O’Bummer for the last 20 or so months. In all these many months, Barrack O’Bummer has been talking the talk from north to south and east to west. Now that he is President, its time that he starts walking the talk! The time for pretty speeches is over, and the hard work begins now!&lt;br /&gt;Lets see if Barrack O’Bummer has got what it takes or he falls flat on his face! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Only time will tell. Till then, &lt;strong&gt;“God Bless Barrack O’Bummer and the Democrats!” And God Damn John McCain, Sarah Palin, Fox News and the Republican and Independent voters!” &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Go ahead and tell me what you think!&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2529379072217818324-4964455743338099159?l=srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/feeds/4964455743338099159/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2008/12/barrack-obummer-first-half-blackhalf.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/4964455743338099159'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2529379072217818324/posts/default/4964455743338099159'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://srilankalandoftheblind.blogspot.com/2008/12/barrack-obummer-first-half-blackhalf.html' title='Barrack O&apos;Bummer: The first half black/half white President of USA'/><author><name>Da Blogfather</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03069090833371953678</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='22' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SJBqtV-VR0I/AAAAAAAAABo/VtoTlX4Z5VU/S220/ostrich.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0v_WowQwO0s/SUzTPnPopLI/AAAAAAAABr4/2q2x7gYBrLI/s72-c/barack.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
