Foolinish

Have you ever noticed something? People will still write down numbers in their hands even though they can enter it into the phone? And it never gets into the phone, even if written on a piece of paper.

How about those who are pigging out on pizza, chinese food, junk food, etc, and then drinking a diet coke?

How about those using nutrament or slim fast drink as a beverage to have with a meal?

I saw Trouble twice this week at Cafe Del Sol/. I also saw his friend, known only the bloggosphere as "Wayne". Nice, this somewhat anonymous world of bloggage.

I tell you what, a couple of bombas usually pass through the Cafe Del Sol.

Have a fantabulous weekend, all you idle people, spending time to read a site such as this (thanks by the way, and also thanks for ALL your comments)

Cricket, lovely cricket. Lovely for Shane Bond, anyway.

Jerome Taylor, one of the rising stars of West Indies Cricket, is pictured here.

Well, folks - did you see any of that test match that was played by Shando and crew?

Lara - 5 and ducks? Next Match, Brian. Time to kick some kiwi ass.

Despite the results of this first test and also the 4-1 defeat in the ODI's, I do believe the Windies are on the mend.

Fidel Edwards, Jerome Taylor and Dwayne r Bravo have brought back some bowling that we prefer to see, in improvement to some of their predecessors that came after Walsh and Ambrose.

Ganga, a batsman that gave me the cusses when he first came to the team, has found his nick in a big way, and of course Chris Gayle, have both begun to bring back to the Windies what true openers are supposed to to do, although they have a ways to get back to the opening stands of Haynes and Marshall when I was a teenager.

I would say watch out for the second test. Sleep in the day, if you are in the Western Hemisphere. That includes you Abeni.

Lastly, congrats to Shane Bond. Anyone who can get Lara out on the first ball is truly a world class bowler.

Hopefully bloggage again en Sabado o Domingo.

Tuesday night Bloggage


I returned from Jam Rock after a relaxing weekend, to return to a week which has begun with a flurry at work. Anyway, that is not a complaint by any means.

I saw Dep. Comm. Mark Shields hanging out at the Hilton as well.

I did meet Doc. D for the 1st time live and in person, and he lived up to the sociable image he portrays on line. We had a couple of drinks at the Hilton Kingston, which is a very pleasant and relaxing spot where I stayed for the weekend. He was on call, and therefore he declined the tequila shots. He brought along one of his bredrin as well, a very cool brother.

I also attended by cousin's wedding and acted as a groomsman, which was quite an experience. The wedding was at the UWI chapel, which is an architectural wonder in itself. The Saturday of the wedding was an extremely long day, in that I left the jacuzzi at the Hilton at 2pm to get ready meet the groom at his room at 3 p.m., and the entire wedding and reception was finished at around 11 pm. Needless to say, I collapsed in my bed until about 9am Sunday morning. The reception was at the Les Ambassaduers, 18th Floor, Hilton. That was good fun as well.

During the wedding one of the bridesmaids, a doctor, went outside, vomited and fainted, and then returned to the lineup. Also, the wedding started without the bridesmaids, because at 3:45, 15 minutes before the start time, they were in Portmore, picking up their dresses, then one came wearing a different dress because hers did not fit. She and all the other bridesmaids had chosen not to collect the dresses or attend fittings prior to the wedding day.

Other than the above, the wedding was a nice affair. I will post pics of the wedding in my next post.

Doc, thanks for showing up, and next time, in your words, we will "rope een" some other bloggionistas from Jam Rock, including maybe his Bullness. Having some delays getting the pics on... but lets see what happens. Yes, it finally uploaded.. shown above are me and the Doc.. Doc.. thanks again.

Kingston Jamaica link up

My Jamaican based bloggionistas

Please join me at the Hilton on Knutsford Boulevard on Friday night at about 8:00 by the pool.

We will either hang there for a while or move out to a location that you recommend (because I have not been to Jam for 3 years).

Hope to see you there, I would like to meet you all in person.
