Re: Ned says James Whitlow scammed $1500 from him; JW claimed police contacts could "sort out" Ned's dispute w/ landlord
For some reason, Whitlow seems to speak pretty fluent Spanish. After calling one of the policemen a 'twat', he says "me cago en tu puta madre" (I shit on your bitch of a mother) and "hijo de puta" (son of a bitch). Why insult them in Spanish?

Re: Looks like casinos will open before schools
Not so sure. I've just seen that the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport have agreed on a prakas to start opening schools up in July.
