More often than not they're offspring of political families or businessmen and 'ordinary people' have no means of getting in (that's something for another post entirely). :/<br /><br />Amila - Thanks. :D Well apart from this bone numbing cold, I'm doing good. People in the N/E/NC aren't so lucky though. :( I hear Nachchaduwa's about to burst its bund and if it does, all of Anuradhapura goes under. :(<br /><br />Pseudo - Hey, I'm no big fan of JR's rule either, and his suppression of the opposition led to riots and insurrections and what not... (But note that today the opposition is pretty much suppressing itself, as opposed to some government moves to suppress it.) My point is that we need an opposition that criticises the government in a <i>fair</i> manner, while standing with it when it comes to bipartisan issues. Or maybe I should stop living in dreamland and come back to reality. ;D<br /><br />Magerata - You do need a blog, do start one up! :D Well, Sri Lankans do love bending the rules, and seem to think the law applies to everyone else but not them. Well, paying him after the matter is done is one thing (the person driving had no idea about speed limits and fines), actively encouraging him to use bribery or privileges is another. The speeding person should I guess treat that as a first time and a learning experience, and afterwards shun the privilege, I guess. :)<br /><br />And the Bangles were huuuuge in the 80s... That song made a comeback after all the unrest in Egypt.<br /><br />Thanks for the thoughtful comments, guys! :)Janithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01712087828463895910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263773220534069715.post-6792083590458956262011-02-05T09:27:58.783+05:302011-02-05T09:27:58.783+05:30Hey Chavie, great thinking. and I bought the Bangl...Hey Chavie, great thinking. and I bought the Bangles song just now, did not know them before. Looks like from the era of JR.<br />Say you are in SL, driving like an American, cops stop you for speeding, the driver, who now is in the passenger seat, letting you drive, tell the cop something in Sinhalese and shows his pass, he snaps a salute and let us go. You ask him what is the normal ticket amount is he says XXXX, you give him XXXXX for the trouble, were you bribing? Or Would you shun such privileges. <br />I got totally confused after my first adult visit. But I have to go back so I can do the wrong thing, I mean right thing 'cos I am supposed to be green!.<br />Do not take parties too seriously. They usually take the same boats, to go whale watching etc! Man this is getting too long, I need to start a blog :)mageratanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263773220534069715.post-83860037956990970202011-02-04T17:38:26.716+05:302011-02-04T17:38:26.716+05:30Just one thing to add...JR was 'valiant and cu...Just one thing to add...JR was 'valiant and cunning' in '77, yes...but then he sat back and watched the country burn for days, calling the torture of innocent Sri Lankans by other Sri Lankans 'democracy'. Another JR is the last thing any Sri Lankan should be hoping for.<br /><br />That said, I'm glad I'm not the only one that recognises that the 'opposition' is also to blame for the status quo.PseudoRandomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01993144590186704387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263773220534069715.post-85593623741584283172011-02-04T16:46:51.954+05:302011-02-04T16:46:51.954+05:30Nice post and song, Chavie.

They are our future leaders and compared to that lot Namal R looks the best option available.Jack Pointhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00324737814154929009noreply@blogger.com
