Gassama:
I beg to add a few pointers to your discourse here in a respectful manner
lest this ridiculous assertion that I am disrespectful be perpetuated.

Your omission of Jammeh's real estate properties is quite glaring.  Doesn't
he have a mansion in Kanilai, a house in Morocco as well as a few other
scattered houses here and there! Could you kindly enlighten us as to why
these were omitted from the list?

And to add, I'll lampoon a bit too cuz I am in a good mood and it is a
gloriously beautiful 75 degree day out here.
I am not going to question the logic of keeping ostriches in a country that
barely has any use for such animals.  Apparently, when Mansa received those
he had to hire trucks to ferry them to Kanilai.  A friend and I were just
trying to imagine the sight of the glorious Mansa  in Waramba, 1000 Terays,
Kurus, scarf and cane supervising the transfer of these exotic camels on a
dusty and hot Gambian day.  Not to mention 1000 hanger-ons.  It would
certainly make great footage for a comedy lampooning the impracticality and
ridiculousness of the mad African depots we are faced with today.
