Freddie’s Bet
Dear Editor,
In a letter which appeared in your newspaper on March 24, 2013, Mr. Kissoon promised to end his column if I could prove that he “wrote a single line about the presence of government politicians at the opening of Mario’s”.
On March 16, 2010, in a column (https://kaieteurnewsonline.com/2010/03/16/juxtaposition-of-modernisation-and-primitiveness/) titled “Juxtaposition of modernisation and primitiveness”, Mr. Kissoon stated that “A new pizzeria was opened up (Mario’s pizza) right at the junction of Camp and Middle Streets. The Cabinet “stars” were present as they were at the Roti Hut”.
There was never an official opening of Mario’s and no one on my staff saw Cabinet “stars” come to patronize.
I am a daily reader of your newspaper and Mr. Kissoon’s column. I would hate to see a Kaieteur News without his column. So, as an alternative, I am inviting Freddie to share a pizza with me on my return to Guyana. I hope he doesn’t consider my offer patronizing.
