But there's still some unfinished house business from yesterday's session for Delroy Cuthkelvin. Former Prime Minister said Musa took a shot at him yesterday, describing him as an "endomorph" - a big word for someone who's fat and round.
Now, it's not considered parliamentary to ridicule someone who is not in the house to defend him or herself - but Mr. Musa is one of the longest serving members, plus he's the only one in there right now who is "Right Honorable."
So respect is due, but it was, after all, a fat joke - and one good turn deserves another, so when Delroy Cuthklevin asked for a right of reply today, we couldn't resist. But instead of snapping back, his comeback sounded more like a hiss - here's what he told us:..
Delroy Cuthkelvin
"I would like to say to me, try to thread a little softly especially where it concerns the ministry of national security because if that ministry were to get really serious about stomping out crime - they might want to consider picking out some of those folks on the other side of the House for all the crimes they committed against this nation over the 10 years that they were in office between 1998 and 2008. But on the lighter side of his comment, it seems to me that he is doing pretty good these days in terms of comic relief, he might want to consider taking up a full time career in comedy. That's as much as I would say because I don't think I want to countenance his comments especially in which the spirits in which they were said with a too serious of a response."

"That would sound serious, but when he said it even the Prime Minister I saw laughing and shot one back at the member for South East."
Delroy Cuthkelvin
"That is it what it is. It is what it is. But like I said I don't want to countenance of a facetious remark with a serious comment in terms of...."
Jules Vasquez
"But you have done that?"
Delroy Cuthkelvin
"In terms of my role at the Ministry of National Security we could answer that at another time when a serious person like yourself ask the question - not within this context."
Jules Vasquez
"But you sound a little bit hurted."
Delroy Cuthkelvin
"No, I can take a good joke."
Jules Vasquez
"It doesn't look like you are smiling at that one Delroy?"
Delroy Cuthkelvin
"I wasn't at the House, I just saw it on the new last night and being on channel 7 which is national TV that everybody watches, I thought I had to say something about it."
Hopefully, that's the end of that exchange.
