Carnival 50.

Image
 I was begining to look out for CARNIVAL 50, even though it was not going to be anything like what we have grown accustomed to over the years, but it would be something rather than nothing, but now the people in charge are putting certain "things" on pause because another "strain" is supposedly on the loose. I do not have any problem with cancelling anything, and changing plans and programs in the public interest, because we should expect this action from people who are trying their very best to err on the side of caution, and to keep our nation safe. However, nothing has been said yet about the possible effects of the "strain"on our CARNIVAL 50 which is running in de bubble. It is very strange that this or similar action did not apply to the International Cricket hosted in SKB just  months ago, where our safety was tried, tested and proven with a real community spread in the thousands, during the tournament period, but evasive action is already put in pla...

Quarter 3 update

Liverpool Row, Basseterre, St Kitts It is a beautiful day in skb. Just had breakfast, one helping of oats with two bananas, raisins and cinnamon, sweetened by honey and sprinkled with Moringa powder food supplement. As you may know I eat my Moringa food supplement every day, except on Sunday. Friends tell me that a person has to fast at least one day in the week. And it seems to be working for me. While I am on the topic of Moringa, let me say emphatically, that I would not be walking around today without the help of Moringa, grown in SKB and created by GOD. I see many of my friends, associates, and haters,   who I believe could benefit from the LIFE giving quality of Moringa.   I must always thank my neighbour Eudora for bringing Moringa to my attention. You don't have to wait until you feel sick, take your Moringa daily, and don't leave home without it. SKN is doing great. We have been through Independence 35 and the storms have passed down south. SKN continue ...

skb day 14 accelerate

This seems to be the action word for 2016. Everyone seem to feel that all aspect of life and living are picking up speed, or maybe more correctly, have picked up speed. Time just goes by so quickly, before you turn around, it is gone. I am no expert on time, but I do not believe that some things, like time can change on us just like that. 60 seconds will always be one minute, and 60 minutes will always be one hour. So how is it that you cannot now complete the same task in the same time as before? According to my scientist cousin Tony, is it that we are slowing down? What other answer is there? It sounds logical, that we get slower as we get older. That is why Bolt will not be forever the fastest man in the world. But that is an extreme case, and maybe a bad example. In a different area, this slowing down is upsetting, and causes stress, and breeds violence. Young people are not willing to tolerate the natural process of the slowing down of older people in service delivery. The...

Gone in 21 days

We are now into the season for picture making. Some of us are looking forward to see the most outrageous of performances again this year, but I suppose most of us would expect to see more composed participation. The calypso says that it is either in the water or the food, but I verily believe that our local brew and beverage water products could most certainly be a party to the actions. In SK we are FREE to drink as we like. All the products are made in SKB with the best water in the world, and you can't get anything better than that. I see movements which people say are election moves. Election can be next week and there is nothing we can do about that. I am of the view that whether it is early or late, it is done in the public interest, which is always better late than never. Of course there are some things which [in my view] are outstanding and overdue, but the people who are making most and many noises are both blind and dumb, and given to dishonesty. I now consider that t...

Ms Nevis for Sugar Mas 43 National Carnival Queen

Image
I was out very late last evening, till about nine. It was the official opening of Sugar Mas 43 National Carnival at Shoreline, on the Bay Road, West of the old Treasury Building now home to the National Trust and Museum. It does not matter how much rain had come, that show was not going to get no bus [burst]. As long as there is music, there is show. No if, no but, no nothing. This might be a rainy season, so band man take warning, rain or no rain just be there, and on time to. I was there early because I wanted to see who was going in for NATIONAL QUEEN. Not that I would know anyone in this young generation of queens, but I just might find someone to support. After their 5 minute promenade on the stage, I am now backing Ms NEVIS for Sugar Mas 43 National Carnival Queen. Usually I support the contestant sponsored by LIME, it is just something I did from the days of being a Lime employee. This year I am backing Ms Nevis, irrespective of sponsor, and we will see what is going to hap...
