Mr Jeng, Had I read your posting earlier I would have never keyed a single stroke on this semantically distorted piece. This guy, by hook and crook, has earned himself a place in Gambian history, as the most disgraceful, idiotic and inconsiderate gum-sucking lying geezer to have perfected the art of butt-kissing. Talk about a cross between a GRIOT and an IDIOT. By and large, Pa Modou Sunset has given further proof that a crazy person doesn't really lose his mind. It just becomes something more entertaining. Last week, I gave him a brotherly advice to have his head examined. Today, he is giving us a lecture on BEIYE, CHERREH, DAHINNE etc. What's next,ladies and gentlemen? Wonders never ceases here anymore. I certainly could use a good shiatsu, after reading all the garbage this fool tried to shove down our throats. Phew! Mr Makaveli (o-:) PS: Afterall, this is the same guy who said "AYE WAYE PACHE" not too long ago. Surprise, surprise.... he is losing it..

Since dahinne is a cereal explains why Gassa ,with all due respect , finds it difficult to think reasonably when the sun rises in the jungle. Hopefully ,by sunset , reasonable thinking will follow.
