Frankly Speaking

Multi-billionaire Fenty’s Guyana – Upgrade After leaving the devastating Pandemic to other commentators for weeks, specific recall and current events seemingly compel me to offer personal comment once again.

The glorious vocations of non-political teaching Deliberately brief comments again today.

Georgetown seems doomed counsel Redundant • Repetition • Unnecessary • Superfluous • Really not needed • These were the words reflecting my own honest belief and conclusion that it was/is not at all necessary for me to join the raging debate about the SARS-Cov 2 corona (family) disease spawned by the first virus and now, its variants.

Pity, sad that I’ll never live to SEE… Way in the days of yore – my bygone past – former PNC Minister Annette Ferguson is the type of lady – physically – I just loved.

– Current Capital City, new town, new bridge Very mistakenly, when I received my two shots of the Sputnik V coronavirus disease (COVID) vaccines weeks ago, I thought that it had the approval of the World Health Organization (WHO).

Final farewell to a diligent professional Sorry to personalise this offering very briefly but over the past week a sudden personal loss proved a major mental distraction for me.

You realise that if two bandits rob and kill your grandmother in her bedroom one night, two feet in front of you, and you escape to inform the police, the two murderers charged become “suspects”.

Parents burying their children As one’s life on earth – even, yes even in big beautiful blighted Guyana – passes seventy and eighty, one makes time to reflect, wonder, lament and hope.

The tragedy and politics of floods My captioned three-part miscellany – or potpourri  – will be as brief as they are diverse today.
