All in a Day's Work

It happened a few weeks earlier with the ex-president...
It happened a few days earlier with the so called heartthrob...

Both were bothered during the security roundups...
One was made to undergo routine...
Other was made to undergo randomness...

Media went berserk...
Politicians forgot there is drought looming over the nation...
Leaders demanded apologies...

All in a days work...

Am not here to comment over the security procedures of an airlines, not the madness of the check-in process of certain nation...
Am not here to be judgemental over treatment imparted...
But am surely would comment on the ways the person concerned gestured afterwards...

One of them rubbed it off saying it to be routine check...
Other went on rounds of interview clarifying doubts, allegations and endless blah blah blah....

If anything that can be learned from the incident, it would be humility...

Why make hue and cry over certain routine procedures...
Millions are frisked daily...

So what I am the ex-president of a country ???
Dont you the know the "ex"es are not treated royally...
Be it the "ex" girlfriend, "ex" husband or "ex" anything....
Same goes for the president too...
Open and shut...
And he did that with grace...

The other one on the other hand...
Did rounds to one news channel, the other news channel and then other news channel till he made sure the entire nation's jobless crowd is talking about it...

Am simply out of words to describe the idiocies of the so called superstar...
Somethings are rather left unsaid...
But we need to do something over assumed "royalness" by some...
And the leaders/media should make sure, page 3 gossips remain at page 3...

We got better things to worry at...
Hopefully....
