Long live and prosper you too (where's this saying from anywhere)?

Was just wondering where the punctuations in the above sentence should be:
But, interestingly though, some of the observations are in bad taste.
But, interesting though some of the observations are, they are in bad taste.
Interestingly, some of the observations are in bad taste.
Some of the observations are in interestingly bad taste.
This reads like one of those classic sentences you teach in journalism
class, when intending to explain the importance of correct
punctuation. But I should be the last person to poke fun, since I've
made some horrible errors (both of judgement and ignorance) during my
days as a trainee/sub/chief-sub at the Herald! FN

What do you mean? Can you be more specific? Very few journos in Goa stretch their necks out to speak BOLDLY? Perhaps you could try to do so. It is never too late. Unity among journos in Goa has always been a drawback. Right, ex-GUJ prez Ashley? Your case in Herald was certainly a let-downner till you got help from a former buddy who is now doing the same to his colleagues.

| To take your point forward Sebastian.... Contrary to what several newspaper predicted, its not Mickkey who has borne the brunt of NCP's relatively poor showing in the Maharashtra polls. Guys at the Sakal-run newspaper/s have had to bid a bit too many sayonaras of late... The bogey of cost-cutting looms large on the staffers at the group's two newspapers, with one person already having to put in his papers. The 'drive' may not end with him. Perhaps Sakal should start whittling down the mini fortune it spens on on supporting the mumbo jumbo doc balaji tambe (does he still function from the same gomantak building?) Hopefully, now that the 3-Ss are out of Gomantak, there will be fewers corners to cut. rgds Bhushan |

Dear Maya, May be the Sakal Group will discover other folks who are on double pay-rolls ...and knock them off from Sakal's list of beneficiaries! They can then go and stand "shoulder to shoulder" [Lamba dahine, chota baye] in the casino joints floating in Punj-ab, land of the one river ...... Mandovi!

Gr8 lyrics. All the best in whatever you do, Sebastian. I still believe that if we remain united, nobody can harm us. Any takers, there? I am sure there will be none. Till then, I will continue to fight my lone battle against injustice to me.
Sadly, it is the same in all organisations. So take heart, Sebastian. Those near you, only take you for a ride but are helpless to deal in such situations though they hold positions of power. An important lesson to note.
