Stuff IS more expensive..

dunno why,
but my USofA dollars AIN'T going as far as they use to
:-(
prices on a LOT of stuff has increased

e.g., Shirley bisquits are now Ja $75

there ain't as much product
in some of the bag-ed/packaged thing-ys.

a Ja$1,000 bill don't buy much anymore [[[ right now ]]

all kinds.

there was live church singing/playing down the road
..up the road was some country music ... not CharliePride, that i use-to hear several years ago,,, but some other country artist

there's some reggae
a lot of hip-hop
...today,,,, heard Biggie Smalls blasting at a Lucea-town barber shop

not too much Baby Face ... but still some can be heard here & there

lots of dance hall ..... LOTS
