Mr. Njie, what did I say in my piece that is NOT true?  For your
information, ‘sycophant’ is NOT a ‘bad/unpleasant’ word per se.  It means:
‘one who attempts to progress or win favor by flattering influential
people.’  If only someone of you kick your lazy habits and consult your
dictionaries, you will cease making fools of yourselves and making these
annoying statements.  Don’t worry.  I am NOT a bomb and I would not explode
on you.
