Tower Of Babel

Well, in case you not ready to tek it on, or you don’t have any ‘Crismas spirit’, it naw wait on you. Sunday is the big day. I am more or less prepared, food in da house, the shopping essentially done, and I think the ham may get baked tomorrow evening (the first of two). I prefer to get one that is not too large…when you buy a really big one it stay in the fridge too long and dry out.

Dem suppose to pay us tomorrow, which should make today lodgement day. But, knowing my bank the money naw reach the account ’till late tonight. Anyway, whatever….some bill paying haffi gwaan tomorrow.

Don’t know if I mentioned this before….the head not quite as good as it used to be (and even at its best it did slip up sometime)….anyway…..Last week I saw a ‘blind’ man at one of the major traffic lights here in City Kingston begging a Crismas money. White cane and all……the cane even have a Crismas decoration tied ’round it. I immediately became very suspicious. I watching him…….he going up to car window and stand there…eyes almost closed as if he is photophobic…but shyte…him nuh supposed to be blind…how de hell him photophobic? I tek him een some more. The lady whose car window him standing by shakes her head indicating that she not giving him any money. And, as she does so, he quickly moves to another motorist, same thing happens, and as the man shakes his head, him gone again. So then, if him blind how de backside him know dat the person a shake dem head!? Damn rass ginnal. Mek him stay deh a feign disability to get money. God naw sleep. It is another thing about Christmas that one needs to be weary of….the opportunists. Careful in your everyday business…it is easy to get ‘caught’ by these types if you not careful.

We have our final clinic for the year tomorrow…..(do you hear me celebrating?), but today is regular work day. Have a meeting tonight and then I have an airport run to make about 10 PM. So, it is essentially a full day today. I notice that in many corners, blog posts a get scarce. I guess people a tek holiday, so, in the event that I don’t hear from you all before. Have yourselves a MERRY CHRISTMAS. It has been great blogging with you all in 2005. ‘Till next time…..
