QUESTIONS ARE being asked about the link between a certain politico and a police rank.
Those concerned contend it is unlikely the police person is providing security as their slender body would be unable to block any attack on the taller, bulkier politico.
They contend, too, that the cozy manner in which the two are seen chatting and drinking at a particular watering hole suggests the relationship is more than professional. And they argue that, in any case, no man and woman are usually such close friends without some hanky-panky going on.
But others who are aware of the liaison say the mere fact that the politico and another colleague of his sometimes are together with this police rank suggests it may just be a case of people of similar spirit getting together.
For sure, the bar loves them to come in as they drink the best liquor in the house and the police rank’s karaoke singing is not bad at all.
Bees put up
THE NOISE AND GESTURES to sting from a species of bees will be no more for a while. That’s because the key bee-keepers have determined it is pointless letting out their bees if there are no plants to pollinate.
As the beekeepers see it, since everyone knows that bees are pollinators and vital to our food chain, then they should be allowed to do their jobs to ensure the adequate growth of plants and crops.
What is happening, though, is that each time they begin to swarm they are bombarded with a lot of putrid hot air that makes it difficult for them to do their job.
What’s more, they are being repelled by householders who, though they recognise the service the bees have rendered in the past and could do now to ensure their plants’ survival, are afraid to let them in lest they be similarly treated by those aiming to exterminate the bees.
So after valiantly trying but failing to get through to most on the importance of allowing the bees to help them help themselves, the bee-keepers have decided to keep their hive shut for now.
They have determined that since the message being sent to them is, ‘Don’t call us, we’ll call you’, that they’ll do just that.
New Froon shuffle
THE TALK ALL around is that a new dance will soon be coming on the scene. It will be called the “Froon shuffle”, named after its originator from Bay Street.
From those who swear they have it on good authority, this new dance will incorporate the old dance moves associated with the precise but slow-moving style of Froon, but sequenced in a different order to make it rhythmic and attractive.
Giving an example of what he means, the person relating this tale said the bulldog antics of digging and tilling will be dropped for a miming sequence similar to the first ‘Sweet Cakes shuffle’ some years ago. In other words, title but no real power.
Quizzed on why this dance at this time, this essential fly revealed that with his team needing to win the contest at monthend, Froon estimated that he needs to adjust his performers to gain maximum points when the voting comes.
So he will introduce his shuffle to accomplish his ultimate goal, which is for his team to win no matter what.
