‘Night on Tracks’ featuring Asafa Powell and Friends in concert
In the midst of all the controversy with Vybz Kartel and Movado, the intolerable increase of the tax package and the madness of getting ready for Christmas it was really nice to see the picture of Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell and American sprinter Tyson Gay together dancing obviously having a great time. The event was the ‘Night on Tracks’ featuring Asafa Powell and friends in concert at the National Indoor Sports Centre in Kingston.
Unfortunately I was not there; I can only read about it in the Gleaner. They say a picture can say a thousand words and this is definitely one on them. I must confess that the picture placed a smile on my face and a glimmer of hope in my heart. Here was a positive message going out to our people, something that we are desperately in need of today. We have so many negatives going on right now that any positive is very welcomed.
On the tracks Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell and Tyson Gay are major rivals. No Jamaican wants to see Tyson Gay win a race, especially if Usain and/or Asafa are in it. Mark you, a 100 metre race is not a race these days if at least 2 of these guys are not in it. However that is on the tracks, as it should be. It was great to see Tyson Gay here as a guest of Asafa on another level. I hope Vybz Kartel and Movado can both learn something from these guys.
Nuff love

Sister Mary Margaret
SISTER MARGARET MARY, WHO WORKS FOR A LOCAL HOME HEALTH AGENCY WAS OUT MAKING HER ROUNDS WHEN SHE RAN OUT OF GAS.
AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT A GAS STATION WAS JUST A BLOCK AWAY.
SHE WALKED TO THE STATION TO BORROW A CAN OF GAS TO START & THEN DRIVE TO THE STATION FOR A FILL UP.
THE ATTENDANT REGRETFULLY TOLD HER THE ONLY GAS CAN HE OWNED HAD BEEN LOANED OUT BUT IF SHE WOULD WAIT, IT WAS SURE TO BE BACK SHORTLY.
SINCE THE NUN ! WAS ON THE WAY TO SEE A PATIENT SHE DECIDED NOT TO WAIT & SHE WALKED BACK TO THE CAR. AFTER LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO FILL WITH GAS, SHE SPOTTED A BEDPAN SHE WAS TAKING TO THE PATIENT.
ALWAYS RESOURCEFUL, SHE CARRIED IT TO THE STATION & FILLED IT WITH GASOLINE, & CARRIED IT TO HER CAR.
AS SHE WAS POURING THE GAS INTO THE TANK, TWO MEN WERE WATCHING FROM ACROSS THE STREET. ONE OF THEM TURNED TO THE OTHER & SAID, "IF IT STARTS, I'M TURNING CATHOLIC".
