I got a chuckle in Tim's thread about about the name thing. As you know,most J'cans have, and, use several names. This is a true story.
A few years ago I arrainged a car to take us from Lances Bay to Negril for a night out . It was BMBB at MXIII . The driver Vessel ,and friend Trevor, came over early for dinner and drinks. We had an awesome dinner and although it was my treat ,Vessel said he was going to work (RT) until we were ready to come home. I remember, I already had a fair glow on, when we hit the road. We all were laughing, chatting it up, when bam, without warning,we were in a road block right in front of the Green Island PD. Fully armed automatics pointed everywhere.They get, the boys out of the front of the car right away,never said a word to Sheila and I in the back.Legit car,I wasn't worried, until i look the other way, and see the cops searching Trevor, and pull a big spliff out of his waistband.Off he goes.Vessel comes in the car.We decide to get out and wait, while he books it back to cousins cove to find a JP or BB or whatever to get some paperwork to bail him out. So Sheila and I are sitting out side the green island police station in dowtown Green Island.It was quite entertaining, and, as you can imagine, we attracted our fair share of attention.Vessell gets back, and runs in and out of the station. All good, first he has to run down to the local cook shop. He comes back with soup for the cops.He comes back out,all screw faced .Trevor had not given his birthname to the cops, No Dalton Wedderburn. What now? Off we race to Lucea to find another JP. We find him in a bar. A shady gambling house type bar.We race back to bail outTrevor . I cant remember what alias he used.They let him out.Only in Jamaica.I asked him why he didnt give his real name. Dalton needed to take a break, he replied matter of factly.You might of had to be there, but it still cracks me up.We made the show,had a big fun night, and a safe ride home.
