Cheney Clip, Oceans Wall

Lehan Edirisinghe

Watched press clips about the Cheney duck-hunting shooting, then made a dark TV-reference joke about it. Later, an “Ocean’s 8” memorial scene and Stephen Schwartz’s page set a reflective, creative note

In this video frame, Harry Whittington is seen speaking at a press conference. The setting appears to be a formal, possibly governmental or public venue, indicated by the background elements like a brick wall and the presence of other suited individuals. Whittington, wearing a dark suit, white shirt, and orange-brown tie, is positioned at the center of the composition, suggesting he is the main speaker. His expression appears serious and composed as he addresses the audience. The image is captioned "LIVE" in the corner, emphasizing the immediacy of the broadcast. The on-screen text identifies Whittington as a "SHOOTING VICTIM," and the network MSNBC's logo is visible in the bottom right corner. The overall mood is somber and formal, consistent with a serious public statement or apology. The lighting is natural, likely daylight, suggesting the event occurs in the morning or afternoon.

A Dark TV Joke About Cheney and Duck Hunting

9:15 p.m.

There was a TV show called, "The Patriot" or something about a CIA guy, they go duck hunting, that "accident" happens

The dark joke in it is that the son claims he doesn't know about it

As they think Cheney is their leader or something

Which is what I found very funny

Jagath Uncle, Hidden Funds and Staying Cool

9:30 p.m. (c)

Jagath uncle!!

: )

I think he kind of is scared of the government arresting him, for whatever, so he's hiding his funds overseas.

My family's the richest in Sri Lanka.

By like a long lead.

I'm pissed off at Hirshon, but he's kind of trying to achieve a solution.

So we'll just be cool.

We're having fun too.

And he's a very cool guy.

You aren't going to be thrown out dude.

Just be cool.

Just enjoy your holiday.

Family Wealth, Betting Profits and Planned Technocrats

9:45 p.m. (h)

My family is the richest by far. The betting is the most profitable. But we don't launder funds for crooks like ████████████████████████████████, who were caught doing so for Namal and Mahinda Rajapaksa: $2.1 million. I think if they make any serious mistakes, we'll have to deal with Jagath legally, or Thilanga legally. I already warned Thilanga hundreds of times, very angrily. If the guy makes any mistakes, Chandrika, Udesh, this Amjad Moulana, there's a lot of speakers to takeover from you. I warned that guy too many times. i don't even have to warn or tell him not to do such stupid criminal acts like theft or murder or threatening people. If you have to tell people stupid s*** like that, "Hey don't try to murder this person", then he shouldn't be there.

I saw Champika is posing with China ambassador and tries to get points.

I picked some technocrats to run my gov't.

I put that nerd, this guy Kris to run energy ministry.

Guy won't try to stupidly steal.

I'm pissed off at you for f***ing up the electricity supply for ages.

It's something that really pisses me off.

How are you supposed to run the factories or hospitals or anything?

It's so irritating.

Jonathan has a IEEE qualification or membership or something.

He was in the Hollywood something guild, until they had to kick him out on account of my entertainment value exceeding them.

Sri Lanka Tea, Dilmah and a Starbucks Plan

11:00 p.m. (d)

Jeez, I nearly gave this guy Merill Joseph Fernando and his sons, Malik and Dilhan, who do pop up on my Facebook, a place at my gov't. But f*** that! Mike Boich and this guy Greg / Joz Jozwiak, they can do a far better job.

I think Wegapitiya, is the only really, humble, Sinhalese mudallali businessman type, who is legitimate. See Hemachandra is the type of person who Mahinda Rajapaksa, for most of his career, pretended to be. But wasn't.

I'm pissed off at Dilmah

A Luxembourg company owns Lipton. It's not a British firm apparently. Might be. But I doubt it.

We're doing eminent domain, creating Sri Lanka Tea, giving it to Starbucks.

Mike, better than being chair of Sri Lanka Tea Corp, he can be the 2nd Deputy PM, then look at all exports.

Starbucks, Howard Schultz, they can do this.

We're making like double or something.

I can quote Trump on deal making, but I won't.

Entertainment Value, Propaganda and Keeping Track of Lies

3:45 a.m. (b)

Hehehe I told Jonathan to skedaddle too

Hehe

It's (what I write) entertainment

Which is often, despite being self-serving propaganda, politics, it's often always weighed on purely "entertainment value"

the only directorial "keep it" or "cut it" deciding factor is "entertainment value"

So, I remember these things

I might've said something else

I actually keep track of all my lies
