IAAF World Championship - Jamaica 9th Overall
Approximately 3000 athletes from over 200 countries at the 10th IAAF World Championships in Helsinki and Jamaica placed 9th overall. In fact, looking at it from the number of medals, we actually came 4th behind the United States, Russia, and Ethiopia with a total of 8 medals.
Not to mention the number of other finals that we qualified for but didn’t medal. Also Jamaica was the only country that qualified for all 4 relay finals. We medaled in three and took fourth place in the other.
“Are we great or what?” Only 4411 square miles with a population of 2.7 million people yet we are able to compete at the highest level among the greatest in the world.
If only we could apply that greatness within us in all aspects of our individual and collective lives. Keep the faith.
Nuff Love

Three Ministers
Three ministers - a Presbyterian, a Methodist, and a Southern Baptist and their wives were all on a cruise together. A tidal wave came up and swamped the ship, and they all drowned. The next thing you know, they're standing before St.Peter.
As fate would have it, the first in line was the Presbyterian and his wife. St. Peter shook his head sadly and said, "I can't let you in. You were moral and upright, but you loved money too much. You loved it so much, you even married a woman named Penny."
St.Peter waved sadly, and poof! Down the chute to the 'Other Place' they went. Then came the Methodist. "Sorry, can't let you in either," said Saint Peter "You abstained from liquor and dancing and cards, but you loved food too much.
You loved food so much, you even married a woman named Candy!" Sadly, St. Peter waved again, and whang! Down the chute went the Methodists.
The Southern Baptist turned to his wife and whispered nervously, "It ain't looking good, Fanny."
