Lessons....!!!! Lessons !!!! most all of these lessons are like re-inventing the wheel ever day of the week......buts that's only my opinion !!! and not that of the sponser...hehehe

"Jamaica has one of the highest rate of AIDS than most countries."...It CERTAINLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! does.My cousin who worked (just retired) for The Aids/HIV Coalition for the UN is/was concidered one of the top experts in the world on the subject and he told me a couple of years ago that 76% of those tested in Jamaica ( I think he said his sample was 2,500 people from all walks of life) had atleast the mildest form of the virus.there is a name for that and I can't remember what it is.She's a loaded gun !!!!!

I won't beat a dead horse by stating my thoughts, but DYAM you guys make great observations and express them well. Bless all of you, whichever way you lean on the subject (which has meandered like a rain filled stream, btw) Love you all!

WHY WHY WHY don't more people take their time to know the person they think they want to get close to, to find out if they really do want to hitch their life to this person, before serious consequences come into play

Oh WHY, oh WHY, oh WHY, which is why I have a LIST

1. No MAN that was raised by a woman - very hard for a woman to teach a boy to be a real man, husband, and father.

2. Man with JOB and a deep belief that it is his responsibility to take care of his family

3. Zero population growth- no matter what, child support must be a priority -my kid, his kid, our kids

Now adding to this list is the only sistas will be from a madda or a fadda....lol!

'I think we should discuss, nothing to smile about,

I think we are just in a different way....lol!

Tammy, this thread proves what make your board different and even better than ALL the others. People can continue to share polar opposite opinions without any childish put downs. Everyone can read and take from it what they wish, find amusing or interesting.....Barvo!

Now, growing up among the cheaters and cheatees, I have learned there are SOME women who condone or look away are they themselves will cheat. Some Jamaican men are plain stupid because cheat on the wrong Jamaican woman and he might not live to tell about it. I have known cases that came close to this scenario,

A Jamaican guy was laying on his death bed and wanted to confess something to his wife. He said, hon, mi ave fi tell yuh dis. The wife said, no please save your breath and take it easy. He continued, mi ave fi tell yuh dat mi sleep wid yuh sista and madda. The wife snapped and said, man shut di raatid up so di poison can work.

JB- Despite of the title, there is always something to smile about.

Some of the stories, oops I mean "jokes" I have heard (not being accessory after the fact:-) would blow your mind. Some of the guys are not going to brag how they got that limp or learn to sleep with one eye open.
