Happy Birthday MBJr!
Well, today is my Godson’s birthday, he is Mad Bull’s and Natty’s son. They are having a party for the little one this evening. I can see his face already! Happy 3rd birthday little dude!
Christmas breeze has also started blowing here, the nights are now pretty cool. I guess I am feeling the ’spirit’. I haven’t put the Christmas tree up as yet, but I am toying with a decoration idea. We have three palm trees on my sidewalk. I want to put white lights around their trunks and red lights along the main stem of the leaves. It looks pretty nice at night. Only one problem with decorating for the holiday that I have: TAKING THEM DOWN IS A RASS PAIN!!! Anyhow, it is time to get started.
Join me again in wishing a Happy Birthday to MBJr. Hope he has many more to come!

December 4th, 2002 at 10:22 am Happy Birthday MBJR!!! So tell me, what’s a “rass” pain in the ass?
December 4th, 2002 at 6:01 pm Hi Kristi. Rass is a Jamaican swear word that I find to be very versatile. I can best show you its versatility by using it. Above, I mentioned a “rass pain”, which could easily be translated damn pain or fu-king pain. It can be thus used as an adjective. This can be good or bad. For example, “What a rass girl look good!” (What a good looking girl.) “What a rass of an earthquake!” (What a serious earthquake.) Or, it can be used similarly to other expletives, “Oh rass!” (Oh shit!) See what I’m trying to get across? It is pronounced, “RAH-S.” I love it to rass!
December 4th, 2002 at 8:21 pm I could not resist…how about “it big no rass” (it’s very big), “you are a real rass” (you are such an a-hole or worse, if you prefer) ” A wha di rass…?” (What the…?) Basically, Jamaican badwords are very versatile as Dr. D said…you can even curse in “cursive” by joining up a lot of badwords together to drive your point home in no uncertain terms, displaying the full level of your annoyance eg. “What the bumbo rass p-ssy claat blood claat f-ckin do yu?” (What the hell is your problem?) Well, that certainly was a lot of fun. Now you can explain Dr. D. what “bumbo” and “claat” are…lol
December 4th, 2002 at 8:29 pm Well Sheggy, I guess I know what Santa will be giving you for Christmas. A gallon bottle of Jeyes to wash out that mouth of yours!
December 4th, 2002 at 8:47 pm Road rage is a bitch, what can i tell you…
December 4th, 2002 at 8:50 pm By the way, Santa wouln’t rass mad!!!
December 4th, 2002 at 10:14 pm How uno so RASS fool?!(adjective) I am tired of all this RASS! (noun) Yu want ah lick uno in uno RASS head? (adjective) I going to RASS you a lick! (verb) ME GONE TO RASS! ( whatever!)
December 4th, 2002 at 10:21 pm Yeah, rass is versatile. Its adds something, you know, emphasis, ooomph… Its kind of like okra. It takes on the flavor of whatever you’re cooking it down with, and adds to in synergistically.
Anyway, Sheggy, I am hurt to rass!, I mean… Look how long I know you and I’ve never gotten even one rass comment out of you. Cho, bumbo rass! Its all right, man. A so it go… By the way, Dr. D, I’d say it was pronounced “raw-s”, don’t you think so? And one more thing? Sheggy, what did you encounter thatmade you say “it big no rass!”, pray tell?
December 5th, 2002 at 7:24 am My yute, I am shocked!
December 5th, 2002 at 9:47 am To put this all into perspective - you’re all RASS MAD!!!!!!!!!!!
December 5th, 2002 at 2:37 pm Hi Seven! You know, there is actually a Jamaican medical abbreviation that some doctors use to mean that a patient is mentally disturbed. I really don’t use it, as I think it most impolite and lacking in decorum to write in a patient’s notes. it is M.T.R. Mad to Rass!
December 5th, 2002 at 10:19 pm Unno too RASS FASS!!!! But it did big fi true… BTW MB, yu memory RASS short…did I not comment on your blog about Mound Mania? Age is a bitch… (just kidding, no badda bex)

December 9th, 2002 at 2:23 pm Hey, Rufie is it! She didn’t say rass! Rufie, now you get to choose the swear word and start us off with a blog entry that begs the question, then we’ll all follow suit on your blog! Yaaayyyy!!! This is FUN! WoooT!
