The Mad Bull’s Blog, Version 3

Hail up my crew. First of all, I want to extend heartiest congratulations to Barack Obama. The man waged a great campaign and won the US Presidential elections and I am SO PROUD of him! Much respect., You know, when MBJr. was about 7 or 8 months old, JPSCo sent me to a course off island, I think it was a Peoplesoft course. Anyway, in the airport on the way home, I saw these tee shirts for kids which had “Future President of the U.S.” emblazoned on it. I thought it was cute, and I bought one for MBJr.

I remember thinking at the time, “Its highly unlikely that I’ll ever live to see MBJr. as President because he is black.”. I realise now that it IS still highly unlikely, but perhaps not so much anymore because he is black. No, it is now unlikely because he wasn’t born in the US and I believe they have a strange rule that you have to have been born in the USA to become President.

Anyway, while I felt at the time that the issue was that he wasn’t white, that is not 100% an issue now. Obama has proven it, y’;all!. Congratulations to him, and I wish him all the best over his time as President!

I would also like to say goodbye to the Dragon. Byron Lee succumbed in his battle with cancer on Tuesday (I believe). Byron, you were a giant on the Jamaican musical scene, you helped to wave Jamaica’s and Soca Music’s flag high, and I am proud of you. We will miss you, man! As I saw someone say on Facebook, please prepare carnival in heaven for when I get there. Nuff respect!

A couple of days ago, I saw Tami post some pictures she took at Halloween parties in Jam. They were nice pictures and they moved me to post a few here too…

Couple of Witches and a… waitress?

Beauty and the Beast

The Pilot and the Terrorist

Peons

Not sure what costumes these are, but they are worth a look!

If you want to see more Halloween pictures of people partying in the Cayman Islands, go to Partysurfers or LTP.ky. Note that to view the pics at LTP.Ky, you have to become a member.
