Not so grand entrance

Date:

Share post:

WHY?DOES?a?certain high-society man and his equally high-flying wife believe that they should make a grand entrance at church every Sunday?
Members of the congregation are getting tired of seeing this couple saunter into the packed popular St Michael church on Sunday mornings close to an hour after service has started, walking around, peeping through every aisle at the front of the church, looking for seats.
Church-goers are wondering if they believe they have an almighty right to be tardy. Or could it be that the husband wants to be noticed because of his political aspirations for a recently available St Michael riding?
 
Double the grief
IT WAS QUITE an embarrassing situation for a mother in mourning to see a large gathering of young men from the gay community attending her son’s funeral.
The poor woman, who has very strong Christian values, tried to maintain her composure when several of these young men filed into the church and gathered around the casket to view her son’s body.
One even created a scene when he stood by the graveside, crying and whispering, “I love you,” before placing a pink rose on the casket.
While the mother remained in stony silence throughout the ceremony, some of her relatives were overheard saying that they felt the large gay presence was totally disrespectful, and even though they knew her son was kind of “soft”, they had no idea that he had adopted the gay lifestyle.
 
Bushy inheritance
MEMBERS OF a certain well-to-do family who inherited several parcels of land in Christ Church from their late father should stop fighting among themselves for the property, which has been neglected for several years.
Residents of the area are constantly complaining about the large lots being overrun by bush and about how unsightly they are in this middle class neighbourhood.
But these relatives do not seem to care.  No one has stepped forward to clean the lots because they are all too busy pointing fingers at each other.
 
Handy with a lie
A MAN who hangs out by a hot dog cart in The City needs to stop trying to fool women about how he earns a living.
This man has been telling women that he is a customs officer when he is in fact really a handyman.
He even brags and tells the young women who work at the nearby clothing stores that he can help them when they go to Miami shopping.
Little does he know that the women are laughing behind his back because they know what he really does for a living.
He seems to think that because he lives in the country he can tell lies and nobody will find out. He should understand that he can’t have the best of both worlds.
 
Cheater lying low
A MAN who likes to boast about his wife and children and give the impression that he is the greatest family man in the world is now hiding from his neighbours after being exposed.
He has become scarce because his wife, whose voice one hardly ever hears, told him off loudly about the young woman he has been seeing, and warned that he would have to leave the house if he doesn’t change his behaviour.
A resident of the middle income development who overheard the bassa bassa said that the usually loud-mouthed man was reduced to a spineless “yes, dear” when his wife asked him if he realized he would lose everything he had.
Goes to show some men can only talk big when their wives are not around.
