SO-much to learn.

here's the deal... 'bout my new socks purchase(s)

some of you's remember
the likkle boy who was my photo-assistant/trainee/apprentice
back in the day ... 'bout 10(?)+ years ago

well,
i saw him this morning.
he's now in his twenties

STILL a slick-ster
...been that way from the womb, mi think
.....good guy, but got MUCH-game

this morning, he had on these socks
that i'd been seeing guys wearing around town

my former photo-assistant
was always up with the styles etc.
and i could count on his *guidance*
for somethings Jamaican

we chatted
...i commented on how grown-up he looked, blah blah blah

commented on his mustach
and
goatee

he-SAY:::>>> ''''...the ladies they like that..'''
.
.
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
maybe i shouldn't shave my beard, etc.... eh..??...

.
.
nevertheless,
tonight,
i'm in the shop across the road
chattin' with some folks

me-SAY::>> ''...how you like my new socks..??..'''
dem-SAY:::>>> ''...NOW you got to get some bleaching cream...""
""..What ..!!! ?? !!! ???...'''

'''...the guys who bleach wear those socks...''''
