mi back

nuff stuff to tell
gonna be brief
mi @ a *new* internet place in Lucea
..price good, but 'puters so so

plus, i need to get back to mi yard/house
..tonight there's a BIG party up yonder so
...i MUST make an *appearance*

again, skipping over some stuff
..to be addressed later
.....for example i asked mi landlord why the house down the lane was empty, and where were the people who lived there

he-SAY:::>>> "..Nobody wants to live there .... Mr.XXXX is there... people fraid.."

mi laughed
laughed soooo hard mi eyes watered

'cause Mr.XXXX been dead about a year
...his duppy now lives in house all alone

ok
new topic

went over to visit landlords son & family
..in Hanover (western part)
..not far from where my Ja-play dawta & her family live(d)

* Wow Wow WOW *

GREAT visit it was

the twins were a treat
..dem loving there first visit to Jamaica

by Jamaican standards they are very *rude* pickneys, as are most/many from-foreign youths
...PLEASE don't offense all you foreigners, but there IS a difference in the behavior of Ja-yutes dem
.......mi thinks we-foreigners use the 'time-out' thing-y too much
.......in Jamaica the peer-rants have a *different* approach for discipline

anyhoooooooooooooooo

learned a LOT about growing dasheen
..and other Ja-plant stuff
....details to follow later

by the waaaaaaaaaay:::>>> dem DO use stuff like Round Up and other weed killers, pesticides, and fertilizers on their crops... especially if dem exporting to other places. The food-stuff that stay in-yard might be grown without stuff added/sprayed, but if dem gonna grow to sell, make money, blah blah raa raa they do whatever needs to be done.

at son's mom's house they gave me a WONDERFUL meal

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Too-too yummy
...video to follow later

somebodys tell me::>> WHY is that the Negril eateries don't serve dasheen to the foreigner/tourists..??..

makes NO sense to me
you's should have seen all the dasheen i saw today

my point:::>> Folks...!!!.. hear me when i tell you::>> '..Of course, enjoy to the max your resort, and other places & things in the tourist spots (like Negril), but please please PLEASE get-OUT and explore::: go to other places off the tried & true beat-to-death paths
