Punished twice
A consumer in Port Moresby is fuming because, after spending K500 carting water to her home due to Eda Ranu’s intermittent supply to her area (despite repeated complaints), she received a K98 water bill from Eda Ranu for August. A double penalty.
Storm loss
Some are using Justin Olam, rated the best NRL center in 2021, as the scapegoat for the Melbourne Storm’s loss to the Parramatta Eels on Saturday. There were 12 other players on the field, right?
Rugby and babies
Something about rugby union and babies – three key All Blacks and two Wallabies players will be missing this weekend’s Bledisloe Cup clash in Perth this weekend because their wives are expecting babies this week. Wow!
A dilemma
Ardent Broncos fan had to make a tough choice last Saturday night – watch the live match against the Sharks or attend a fashion show in Port Moresby. He chose the latter – and was not disappointed. Well, his team lost anyway.
Political play
The Pangu Pati national convention last weekend has set in motion what is expected to be an exciting build-up to the 2022 general election. Let the battles begin, PNG.
This one
A pessimist seeks a dark tunnel, an optimist sees a light at the end of the tunnel, a realist sees a freight train approaching, the train driver sees three idiots standing on the track.
Thought for today
Every day is a new beginning. Take a deep breath, smile, and start again.
