Dem boys seh…Amaila is not a ready-made dress

Aug 04, 2013 Dem Boys Seh, Features / Columnists, News

 

No tricks no living is something old people does always seh when dem talking bout a scamp. Dem does use that same statement when dem children trying to smart dem just like how Brazzy and he kavakamites dem trying to smart Guyanese.
Dem boys only find out de other day that dem don’t have a design fuh de Amaila Falls but dem have a price. That price jump from US$350 million to US$650 million then to US$840 and now it climb to US$858 million. Dem waiting to see it climb to something else.
Now that got to be strange because if a man building a house and he ain’t got a design or a plan fuh de house then he can’t know wha de price gun be. He can’t tell nobody how much money he gun spend. Nobody know if is a one-bedroom or a mansion he building.
Is de same thing if a woman want a dress, de seamstress got to measure de woman to know how much cloth she got buy.  De woman might be a slim woman like Julia Roberts who want a mini or it might be a full figure woman like Oprah Winfrey or Bibi Shadick who want nuff pleat and flounce and frill. Of course dem things gun tek more cloth and that gun push up de cost. Dem two size gun vary in price because dem have de measurement.
Dem have dress that is ready made. Dem even got one size fit all but that can’t fit Brazzy. De pumpkin jump suit wha de Feds gun mek gun fit he, Barbie and de rest of dem. Dem boys seh that Amaila is not a ready-made project or a one size fit all. Yet Brazzy give de nation a price of US$4 million per megawatt when de rest of de world buy fuh US$3 million per megawatt.
Dem boys seh that if de people think de scampishness done deh, dem lie. Brazzy admit that Amaila after one year can’t generate enough power to supply Guyana.  He plan de next year to build another one. Well wha happen to de feasibility study? It got to be that Jagdeo and Brazzy and all dem planners tek Guyanese fuh fools.
It like de man who plan to buy a bicycle and mek a li’l bridge fuh ride over knowing that one year down de line he gun buy a car. He know that he got to mek a big driveway and gun scrap de li’l bridge. Fuh one, de bridge can’t tek de weight of de car suh is a whole new foundation.
Or is like a man who build a one bedroom house fuh he and he wife. When de children come is either de man expand or de children sleep under de bed. And Brazzy can’t fit under no bed.
As old people seh, no tricks no living.
Talk half and watch fuh de tricks.
