Aney is it true? with Nam

The friend of Buzz
* She claims to be a friend of Minister Buzz. Ironically at the Netball AGM she managed only four votes to her credit. Then the maddened lady approached the dais and threatened that she will teach those elected a thing or two with the help of her friend.However the others present were wondering would the good minister stoop to such lows?
No permission

Turncoat chased away
* This turncoat who has a dubious past and also has the tag of being tale carrier to the new boss got a ticket to ride to the West Indies courtesy the new boss. Armed with the ticket he made a bee-line to the old boss to collect his day-to-day expenses. Alas! To his utter disappointment the old boss had used some choice words and chased the man away.
Good lesson for the double-agents!.

Closed!
* The bar at the running man’s headquarters which is run by a person with questionable credentials incurred a loss of over 800,000 last year and now is closed.

Hail the good man
*Hail the good man who brought a halt to the age old club’s attempt to take three umpires on an overseas assignment with the permission of the accredited authority. People in the know-how say a club with such credentials should have been aware of these basic facts.

Bags and Baggage
* It is true that the umpire employed at the place where the planes come and land get preferential treatment because he helps those officials at the place where it matters to clear their baggage when they return from their trips abroad?

All talk no money
* Some are querying statement of this man who pronounced that he would obtain Rs 20 million for the running sport from the president prior to his appointment to this much sought after post near independence square. But, sadly in his near four hour speech after his election not a word was mentioned about the promised 20 million rupees!

Empty coffers
* There are reports reaching that though the former boss of the running sport says that he did a heck of a lot for the running sport, the only thing he managed to do was to leave an empty coffer.

You scratch my back
* This executive of the kicking sport has been sponsored a trip abroad along with his family by a ticketing firm. The reason they say is that all tickets to go abroad through this sport is obtained from them with no questions asked.
