Good thread oldtimer. You can gain knowledge while reading books. Living what is written in books, gives an some thing to write about. Living 'it' more exciting/ruff/tuff/raw/real/beauty of the island/talking to mattie in a taxi/killings/attempted murder/peace in nature[gone]/and on and on.........
Smile Orange Baby, it just has become more easy with cell phones, and planning who is coming in next......Yes I am Very Critical-I lived it for many years........Bilking woman out of enough money to build a concrete house for their Jamaican wife-who will either be a cousin-sister-aunt-friend-baby mother/living a woman with nothing left for herself,but AIDS????
No I do NOT have AIDS. I also planned well and I never got taken for everything, Keep your own nest egg, You will never know what could happen, when You have fulfilled THIER DREAM!!!!!!
I say this with much sadness. I saw the same gigs come to play with a different coconut each week, all different places from all over the world. Some coco, have a plan with a man, who has 10 other coco's, that have a plan, and all the man is doing is playing them all....take that to the bank...but he will never show his wealth to YOU!!!! I don't understand why a coconut tree can stand so tall up in the sky, yet not c a thing????
This is MHO. It is not meant for anyone personally. It is only my point of view. Peace
PS. Edit to add I need to read the whole thread
