Jamaican Leadership or Lack Thereof
‘What a ‘heap’ a mix up ina wi nice, nice likkle Jamaica. Fi some weh soo pretty and God send. Why we one have so much problem. Our economy is taking a royal licking with most of our earning power gone, bauxite, sugar and banana. Not sure what is happening with the IMF talks and it doesn’t look like the government knows either. Every minute it postponed. Yesterday we hear that ‘dem’ will have to clean up the public sector as the wage bill is too high. You know wha dat mean, nuff, nuff people a go loose dem wok. Not to mention that nuff nuff done loose theirs already. The crime rate a spiral more and more every day. The United States a pressure wi fi extradite one man. Again it no look like the government knows wha dem a do. In fact the government no seems to realize sey dem ina power over 2 years now cause every thing wey go wrong a di last government fault. And as if dat not enough, we have threats being made on the media houses fi chat what a gwann.’
'Rite now di only shining star is our lighting Usain Bolt. Working hard in his new role as ambassador at large for Jamaica, this week Mexico and next week Monaco. But we can’t afford for him to get the people excited about coming to Jamaica and then mess up things when dem get here. As the song writer says “there is nothing wrong with the world (Jamaica), just (a few of) the people who’s in it. Wake up Mr. Prime Minister, where is all your beautiful plans, weh di jobs, jobs and more jobs, weh di crime fighting plan. You are there because you promised you could fix things. We still a wait for even the first move.'
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."
