Cost of Living and Playing Snooker and Billiards

By the way two of my cues and the stand was vandalized by the Mason Bass in my absence.

Now I use a laquered stick or Sesath as my cue

Last time I played billiards and snooker, it cost me Rs.5000/= for one hour game in a Kandy Hotel and another Rs.5000/= for spirits and short eats.

This is where we had our 50 years of graduation celebrations.

That was the last time I went overboard on alcohol and I did not come home.

The meal and alcohol did cost a little bit more and both soles of my new footwear could not stand the upbeat and I had to dispose it.

The footwear costs over £100= and today's rate Rs.6000/= or more.

This is all before Coranavirus and playing snooker indoors is not allowed by WHO now.

Mind you, coconut is Rs.100/ a piece and my game is actually converted to 3 gunny bags of coconuts.

We are importing coconuts for new year with GasPaluwas demolishing our TREES including Jack and breadfruit trees.

What a country we are living in?

Our Free dish out to Samurdhi recipients is equivalent to one game of billiards and definitely without liquors.

I stop drinking alcohol due to taxes and I do not call anybody or answer telephone due to newly imposed taxes.

Girigoris or Piss Off Software is tested by Telecoms and Dialog now.

One thing I know is that Chinese cannot play snooker but they are good at poker and our finance minister does not know how to play poker with Chinese.

A snooker cue or stick Indian made is over Rs.2000/= and a snooker table costs over 1 million while in Colombo guys and girls spend extra cash is cassinos at a time Coranavirus is peaking again after New Year holidays.

The new year games our little Simeon plays is nothing compared to guys playing golf in Colombo.

A singer of high society, mostly drunkards have millions in their banks and some of their sons are involved in street violence and are protected by their fame when a  officer in uniform working at unfriendly hours tries to arrest a guy who is a drug peddler or addict is convicted by public opinion (judged by his / her skin colour in America not by actions of self defense or of duty).

It is the bystanders including media men with doctored clips who decide the outcome and not the fair play in this country and in America.

What has has happened to fair play?

When lawyers of defense and prosecution only see one side of the story, how can a jury give a verdict in a critical and sensitive case?

Nobody thinks of prevention of crimes and drug peddling.

Alcohol is the on top of sale list and traffic accidents tops both lightening and Coranavirus deaths put together in Ceylon.

The system of education has failed to instruct law makers, lawyers, judges and lot more priests of law esteem.

High criminals are protected including bankers and the minions are sent to prison for inappropriately long sentences.

One must not see this as a failure of the system or democracy.

It is the failure of the judicial system and not democracy.

It is worse under autocracy!

On paper autocratic countries have low rate  of criminal activity but their high officials are the most corrupt in this world.

Both Russia and China should be under the radar.

Look at Myanmar and criminal activity of the military.

We have guys wanting a dictatorship and their sanity should be examined in public court like in America.
