What's Up Jamaica

Now here is something that you don't see very often ... ONE DON basically admits that he is wrong and BOWS! OPPOSITION LEADER Edward Seaga is to apologise in the media to Mandeville businessman Kenneth 'Skeng Don' Black for libelling him at a public meeting in Junction, St. Elizabeth, on October 21, 2001 ... The terms of the agreements were made on the condition that Mr. Seaga publish an apology to Mr. Black within seven days from December 16. It was agreed that the apology is to be broadcast on radio and television and published in the newspapers ... Another part of the agreement is that Mr. Seaga is to pay Mr. Black's legal costs of $500,000, payable in four monthly instalments of $125,000 commencing on February 2, next year. Seaga to apologise to 'Skeng Don'

It's been a while ... I've just been very busy. Work work work. Just sharing a very sad link though. As much as I am against what George Bush claims to be doing in Iraq, these are sad pages to go through - http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2003/iraq/forces/casualties/index.html

What am I missing here? These guys beat/stone a man to death and one of the blows kills the man and these guys get off scotch free. Self defence? Wow!

Dem Russian skinheads lucky say is thirty of them outnumber the six Jamaicans and beat them in Moscow (News Item). Coz trust mi, even though them students ah probably some 'nerds', if it was only bout 9 more of them against the 30 skinheads, I know say the yawdman dem woulda come out on top. Unfortunately, racism lives on.

Yesterday I read a mid-November issue of the TIME magazine. Saw an article about Jessica Lynch (the female U.S. prisoner of war that was rescued in Iraq) and she said part of the reason she joined the army is because she likes to travel. She's slightly disabled right now, but she said she still wants to travel when she recovers some more, and interestingly one of the two places that she said she still wants to see is JAMAICA. The other place was Hawaii. Big up Jamaica :)
