Casket mekking wid shelf and pocket

Jul 31, 2009 Dem Boys Seh, Features / Columnists

People mouth does put dem in trouble. Dem have a security man at de waterfalls Paper who does always behave like he is a reporter because he hear dem reporter seh that dem job is fuh know people business.
Up come a man selling nut and of course he walk in de editorial department and ask if people want nut. Nobody ain’t answer suh he tek it pun heself fuh order because he sure that de boss man gun pay. He mek a mistake.
When de man who selling de nut ask fuh he money he wonder who got to pay. De boss man announce big and bold that he ain’t order nutten suh he ain’t paying. De guard man had to tek he ration money and pay. He cry but dem boys laugh he.
De same thing happen wid some big ones who like collect money and don’t spend. Dem collect so much money that dem actually don’t know what to do wid it. One man think he smart and he get he wife to buy a house fuh a lot of money.
He didn’t know that dem boys was watching and that dem gun check. Dem find out that the wife salary couldn’t even pay rent fuh a proper house much less buy an expensive one. When de news buss out de man actually disown he wife and mek people believe that he ain’t involve.
He worried and dem boys want to know wheh de money come from. Somebody claim how de wife got rich family overseas and is dem buy it. Indeed de money come from overseas but de family ain’t surface yet.
Others get sense and dem mekking special coffin. Sandy, Lyken, Merriman and Jerrick get orders to mek coffin wid shelf and side pocket. Some of dem got special pouch.
Dem boys seh that de casket got shelf; de coffin got pocket; and de dholi got socket. De casket is fuh dem big, big one; de coffin is fuh dem engineers and dem not so big, big ones like dem kan tractors; and de dholi is dem rich small fry.
When order come in funeral parlour don’t ask but dem boys had to find out. Dem now hearing that de people decide that when dem dead dem want dem money wid dem. De other day dem boys talk how more than 300 tomb break in de cemetery. That gun be joke. Every time dem got a big one funeral dem gun have to put more guard than dem have at State House.
Of course, people gun want to sue de Waterfalls paper because it talking nuff. It skin up some people and dem get vex and sue. One man even get de marshal fuh lie and he believe. He tell NCN how he gun sue again.
Well dem boys seh that is only woman does sue sue. Man does soor. You ain’t got to get marshal when you a soor. Dem boys seh that de Waterfalls paper ah get a lot of sue sue, especially when it start fuh check how de money ah spend and wha lef back, wheh it does guh.
It don’t go back wheh it come from fuh sure. More does got to come out and dem boys got evidence. Imagine de same people who suing use to talk bout investigative journalism. Dem didn’t know that de investigation woulda tun to dem. Now dem a run and hide. Dem look like kaka roach when light ketch dem in de night.
Dem old people always seh “Moon does run till day ketch am.” Trust dem boys, nuff of dem gun get skin up. Some might even get jail when things change.
Imagine one of dem big, big one decide that he want to mek peace and he invite dem boys fuh a drink. But dem ain’t guh. Dem frighten dem get poison like some of dem who dead in hospital.
Another big one invite some other people. He tell he people dem fuh keep out one man but de man was not going anyhow. When he hear that de man didn’t come he get vex because he did want to embarrass de man. He hold catahar.
Talk half. Lef half.
