Just don't set it on fire :-)...
When we arrived we saw Daisy, Markus, Muzikdoc, drummerboy13 and Boombastic all chilling at the bar. So we bellied up and ordered a round of Dirty Bananas, yum! We chatted for a while about the fun of the day and we filled Daisy and Markus in on painting the bricks. I showed them the photo of the bricks we had painted for them. The day was coming to an end and the sun was setting so beautifully on the beach
About that time, up walked Brasi. He came up and joined us for a moment at the bar and then mentioned the idea of heading next door for some jerk chicken. We all agreed that sounded like a plan and off we went. Right next door to Seasplash (sorry, forgot the name of the place) was a little jerk barrel and shack. We placed our order and then grabbed a seat at the table. We all talked and had a nice visit. Then our attention soon after went to the moon. It was AMAZING. We all had a different description of what we were seeing. Someone said it looked like devil horns, someone else thought it looked like a jack-o-lantern, but whatever you thought, we all agreed it was amazing. So of course this meant that Markus and Ninja would have to make it their goal to capture the perfect photo of it. I believe they literally spent 30 minutes or more trying to find the correct setting on the camera coupled with the right angle and the perfect object for a tripod, I am sure there were wind measurements and barometric pressure considerations and possible use of the Pythagorean theorem as well. I spent about the same amount of time trying to take a photo of them trying to take a picture of the moon, it was comedy (of course that too was on the camera I lost, so this photo is courtesy of Muzikdoc, thanks so much) It was too funny of a moment not to have captured on film.
And here is the best image from all of their hard work
After we ate some pretty delicious jerk chicken Brasi mentioned he was going to be heading out to a beach bar and we thought it sounded like a good idea. It was Monday and someone mentioned Alfreds….but Alfreds is not the spot on Monday. Our driver, a friend of Brasi’s mentioned it was Bourbon Beach but then he also mentioned Roots Bamboo and said there was no cover….well, that was an easy decision, so off to Roots we headed. Muzik decided to stay and hang back at Seasplash but Brasi, Daisy, Markus, drummerboy, Ninja and I were off. We arrived mighty early to Roots Bamboo but that was fine by us. We hit up the bar and Daisy and I decided to pay homage to Breanna and so we ordered our first Apple Ting and Vodka…..but it surely would not be our last! Yum! Thanks again for the tip Bre!
Cheers to good times with good friends.
We found a nice table on the beach and we took a seat while we talked and listened to the music. Fireman, our waiter, walked with the speed of someone who might be heading to put out a fire. We later found out that he is a real fireman! Daisy headed off to the bar and came back with a new friend. She tried her hand at matchmaking for our friend Brasi, lol. I realized that when Markus leaned over and said to me, “This will soon end with Brasi mouthing the words ‘HELP ME’” that clearly Daisy had not learned her lesson from that last incident on the beach with Jamar! LOL
About that time I am chatting with Daisy at the table and I hear Markus talking loudly and excitedly behind me to someone. I look back briefly and I could only tell it was a local but no one that I recognized so I just figured Markus was being Markus. He tends to get excited about just about everything he discusses, and that is one of the things I like most about hanging out with him. So I continued back to whatever Daisy and I had been discussing, and then Markus comes closer and he says to Daisy “Look, Daisy, look who it is” She looks up at him and he smiles real big at her and says “Hi Daisy, do you remember me?” And she smiles with a sort of ‘Not really, but I am too nice to say no’ look….and then he says “It’s me…..Shamma Lamma Ding Dong!!!” I burst out with laughter, and I turned to Ninja and said “Ninja….did you hear that….did you hear who he is?!?!?!?! He is Shamma Lamma Ding Dong” OMG I laughed so hard. So they chatted a bit and got caught up on everything since they had last seen each other……still at this moment I laugh just remembering that entire interaction on the beach…..only in Jamaica!
Now the crowd is getting larger and the music is getting louder. I look around and all of a sudden I see another familiar face….it’s Beachgirl66! So I walk over to her and invite her back to our table. Beachgirl is just so bubbly and beautiful it is hard not to be drawn to her….and the Jamaican men are definitely not immune to that either. Shortly after sitting down an admirer of hers shows up and decides to serenade her with a special song. He sings it to her loud and with purpose….”DELILAH! You left an ice box where (his) heart used to be” HAHAHAHAHA You heartbreaker, you!
We were all having a good time but it was getting late and I knew that we had to get up REALLY early the next day and would be spending most of the day in a bus traveling around Jamaica so I told Ninja it would be a good idea for us to head home to Catcha…..of course not everyone followed our lead on that good idea as we were the only ones that left (probably midnight). But Brasi walked us out to his friend the cabby and he took us back up to Catcha. We never met up with Booger, Sandie, Jon and Tizzy that night but we did hear lots about their adventures later. We went into our room and basically passed out on the bed, luckily we were smart enough to set our alarm before doing that. Another amazing day in Negril……..

Ode to some of our most eligible bachelors:
Brasi- What can I say about our sweet Brasi…what a guy! I have to admit I already knew I liked him as we had long before started a friendship online. At first we just talked about plans to eat at Bentleys then it switched to our love of music and common backgrounds, then maybe on to discussions of the world’s greatest football team. Whatever it was, I knew I liked him and so I was so excited to see him in person and spend time with him. I have to admit though that I actually did not spend as much time with him during this trip that I would have liked to, but when we did spend time it was surely enough to know that he is a wonderful and very caring guy. His love of his kids and for those he cares about is apparent. He truly is a real sweetheart…uh, er..I mean, he is a real bad ass! Lock up your daughters and watch out! LOL He is a master event planner and hype man and just an overall sweety. Some woman needs to snatch him up quickly before the long line of female fans gets too long, and whatever woman does that, will be a lucky one indeed!
Muzikdoc – OMG I love this guy, how can you not? Muzikdoc is a great big old teddy bear and everyone knows it. He is a guy that loves life and people and having fun and that is pretty much what he lives by. He likes everyone and has never met a person he couldn’t have a drink with. At first glance you may think who is this mean ole burly biker guy, but within about a second your answer would be…Well he is Muzikdoc, and he is my new friend! Really wish we had more time to hang with you, but I know we definitely will in the future and we sure enjoyed the times we did spend with you…Also, as I have added before…he was the king of the perfect form during the Bellyflop Challenge…..oh and also, I feel that any woman that wins over this teddy bear’s heart would be truly treated like a princess…ladies, line up! Oh and I also heard he has some pretty sweet dance moves!
Drummerboy13 – We only had a brief amount of time with him on this trip, but it doesn’t take long to know he is a genuinely good guy. We talked to him about music and where he is from and relationships and life. My heart went out to him listening to his story of his recent relationship and just from that alone I was able to tell what a stand-up guy he is with a really great head on his shoulders and definitely the right priorities. I loved listening to him talk about his son and how he is the most important thing in his life. Drummerboy, we think you are pretty great and surely there will be a very lucky woman to come along soon who will also agree!
So listen up ladies of the world….here are 3 prime examples of some REALLY GREAT GUYS…stamped with my seal of approval, and I should know…I married one (A really great guy, that is). So put on your best dress, fix your hair, and come at them with the best you have, because they deserve it….and they have a lot of female friends now that you will have to impress as well!
Stay tuned, up next the day trip to YS Falls and the Pelican Bar

Awesome.I so love everyone's take on the people they meet. Although I have met some its still amazing to me...what a wonderful family we have created :-)
YOU ARE WAY TOO KIND!!!! I am def a work in progress!! I love you guys and enjoyed my time with you!! Watching you, as a couple, was very inspiring to me!! I am continuing my rebuliding process, so I will be ready for the perfect lady that comes along after she reads your super nice advertisement for me!! LOL!! I wanna be a couple like you guys or Clarity and Markus! Thats the dream anyway.....
We loved you too and I meant every word. Hope the advertisement works.....we can always hold auditions next April
I am pretty sure I can say that you WILL be one of those couples one day, and that will be a very lucky lady....don't give up on the dream!
Don't know how I missed your flop report Ninja! Been super busy, I'm working on the flop now, will try to have it up soon. Wish the 360 had been taped, I was purposely NOT watching your flops...
What's so funny 'bout Peace, Love and Understanding?
Love that pic of Markus & Ninja trying to get the perfect shot of the Devil horn Moon. I remember Markus running back to the room to get his good camera and the mini tripod. They were both so serious about it too. This was no joking matter, the perfect shot must be achieved. lol!
As for Roots, I was just trying to be a good "wingwoman" and yeah, I've accepted the fact that suck at it. I hope Brasi forgives me for my sad attempt.
Well at least she wasn't 30 years older than him w/ bad make up job and crazy wig. Jamar still wont let me live that one down...
Looking forward to the next update. YS falls/Pelican bar! woo hoo!
If you're going to post a picture of the switchblade toe operation, I preferred Spottycatz angle of the traumatic event over that one Booger posted. just sayin' LOL!
Carpe Diem
LOL Clarity, you crack me up...yes they were serious! As always! HA!
And it's ok, you know we were only teasing about your match-making attempts...we know your heart is in the right place.....and no one was hurt (at least I don't think....Jamar? Can you answer that? You weren't hurt when that older lady grinded up on you, were you? LOL)
Hmmm, picture of the switchblade operation?!?!?!?! I have NO IDEA what you are speaking of.....LOL
