Dem really “Basic” fe true!

In 2002, six hundred of our basic schools are still utilizing pit latrines! I wonder if this is why the Government calls them “basic” schools? Why didn’t this story break during the election campaigning, when we were being regaled with storys of the P.N.P.’s contribution to all things Jamaican, including Education. And now, its the [...]

Cricket, Lovely Cricket

I guess a bit of a Halloween spirit must have affected the West Indies openers. They seem to have been transformed from Dr. Jeckyl into Mr. Hyde! I woke up to find the situation being India 358, West Indies 173 - 1 in the first innings. Sarwan’s just off the mark with a comfortable single. [...]

I been thinking…

While driving in the car, Natty pointed out that MB. Jr. would soon fall asleep, as he had started to play in his hair in earnest. He always does it. He grasps a forelock between his thumb, his index finger, and the one beside it and he twirls it around and around, until it stands [...]

Sleepy tonight…

Man, am I tired! I was dialled into work, running some scripts. The night’s billing was being held up until I finished what I was doing. Suddenly, I was awakened by Natty… I had fallen asleep in front of the laptop!
Luckily, she woke me up before a critical amount of time had passed. I was [...]

She waah go home!

I just had a funny experience, thought I’d share it with you. I was looking for a Pepsi to splash into a glass with some V/X, but we were out. I sighed, then decided to hit the road to a pharmacy nearby to buy some.
I went in to the store, picked up two bottles of [...]

Its his call, but…

I feel for Prime Minister P. J. Patterson. You see, he has the same set of bunglers, layabouts and knaves surrounding him, people we’ve all seen to be pretty worthless over the last three terms in office. It must have been hard trying to pick a credible Cabinet!
I know its his call to make, but [...]

A Father’s Lament

Malvo’s father laments : “I feel very bad for him, he’s my son, he’s my blood so a must feel bad,” he said. “When he was growing up he was not like that, just seem like him stepfather (Muhammad) inveigle him into that something.”
I feel for him. Maybe he was inveigled, but guess what. At [...]

Chinese Sex

Ok, first let me say “Chinese people, me love oonoo!” (Chinese people, I love you). This joke is not meant to offend anyone, but it is funny! Plus, I know that all my Chinese friends and readers can take a little ribbing, and hey! Y’all can respond with your own jokes about Jamaicans, and/or black, [...]
