Yeow!
Yes my crew….sorry for the temporary absence caused by the failure of the power supply to compi. Anyway, that has been remedied, said power supply was repaired for the sum of 3G (bout $50 US) and compi is now up and humming like a busy worker bee gathering nectar.
So, last nite, my first line of business was to edit (very minor changes) to one of the TWO talks I am doing at the conference which is next week……I flash Wednesday to Kami’s island and then copy both talks to CDs and print them. So, all systems go…man have ticket, passport, some greens (not too much..donations to said worthy cause welcome!
) and means to do the two presentations. Anyhow, enuff o dat shyte, which is thankfully behind me.
What else a gwaan? Well, if yu waan think about more crap….rain nuh deh pon we again. This time is some front or trough dat a siddung like fowl a lay egg over the island to ra$$!
Then, to the South of us is Beta! I wouldn’t be surprised if it reach hurricane strength by this morning. Seems it a head in the Honduras/Nicaragua direction…..so dem Latinos (as Ri woulda seh….Bomba!) had better prepare demselves for the blow…..rahtid bwoy…..dah season yah a test man patience. So, it looks like anodda weekend of wetness deh pon we! Me on call so jus as well. We jus haffi mek de best of it, nuh true. I only hope the weather doh frig up flight plans for Wednesday! Here is today’s Gleaner weather article.

October 29th, 2005 at 1:18 pm Hey Doc Enjoy your trip - did your article on the bleachin get published? I would like to read it, still. Stay Dry, wet here too, as you can probably guess.
October 29th, 2005 at 2:56 pm Ri, the editorial board is reviewing it….I hear dat some people on the editorial committee don’t like it…dem feel seh the topic too ‘touchy’…might step pon some people toe if it is published. Whatever they want to feel, the issues surrounding skin colour, skin bleaching, shadism, racism, colour prejudice (whatever dem waan call it) are quite real and happening all around us. If it get accepted and published, fine, if not…den a jus so. No big shyte…(jus a fair amount of time, research etc put into writing it!)
