Are they going to be dressed like this when they spank the kids? Wow how I wish i was young enough to be spanked by the second principal in the first picture. Also I wish they are wearing knee high black boots?
When I was attending school I used to get spanked by an old man and that
was not sexy.

My cuz spent more than 20 years in the army to be a colonel. These people are given in a day. Now he has become a laughing stock in our families. We all fool him cos our 60 year old principal uncle will become a colonel soon too.

Very good move by the Defense Secretary. This is like an investment of rule of law, for future generations. We are certain that he is the one to maintain law and order in the country. Hats off to you sir!!!!!

Ha, to maintain law and order, there has to be law and order. May be to some.

dont worry about my cousin being a loser. but i guess you are belong to those who get scared by uniforms. Your mom must have frightned you with GONI BILLA stories when u were young. What make you think that a uniform or a army posting would change these people or their mind set? We had principals in our college n they were original army brigadiers. Get a life mate.

Oh man oh man, Sri Lankans never cease to amaze me. What a waste of money and time, what a bunch of clowns entertaining each other. This is the fricking miracle of the world. Really laughing out loud now.
