Well Hotts, the song isn’t so much annoying as it is overplayed. Fry Ohcro on the other hnd….well maybe I could eat that once in a blue moon, but it must have plenty pepper.

Afro chic gyul, we applaud your service to our country, please accept the MOOM award (Manicou Order Of Merit).

Mummylicious, well to tell you the truth I wondering that too. I’ve had caraili all kinna ways and none of them ever taste good.

And don’t start me about the cashiers, what is the criteria these use to hire anyway? Be friendly and talkative to everyone but the customers?

2. AMEN to #9 i have the biggest problems with cashiers at groceries. Why why whyyyyyyyyy are you talking to the girl next to you about Wasa fete when my groceries are sitting there waiting for you to swipe. Do you not see me standing there?

I missing waking up at the ungodly hour of 3:45 to leave home at the even ungodlier hour of 4L45 to reach down in the Oval fuh 5:15ish.

Serious.

And allyuh just not cooking that ochro right. But I wouldn’t eat it any other way than fried. Fry with some aloo and if it’s done well there’d be no slimyness (sliminess?)

Izatrini – Thanks for the tip. Yeah I love it too but good gracious man, it’s all over the place.

Karel – I guess in matters such as these I should always ask you first, lol. Thanks for clearing up the Carla dilemma too. So that’s where she is.

Sherwin – Dave Lammy boy? I can’t even remember Lamy doing anything outside of horseracing. Although I’m sure he did also do soprts news. I never heard European commentators pronounce it Sant’s way, but I’ll take your word for it. I guess it stands out more because he has a couple other mispronunciations.

You can make a case for Baigan, but bodi boy? Yuh mad or what? About Patrice Roberts, I was wondering that myself too. She was the only person to make a soca video or what?

Jonathon – Wait just one gosh darn minute, what do you have against Robin “Boosh Fires” Parasram? Just kidding. Actually I had completely forgotten that Tony Harford read the sports report. Geez, that was such a long time ago. I agree with you on that, he was a much better sports man that Roger – was a little less nasal too. I don’t remember very well Tony Dennison reading the sports though. Well I guess I’ll have to demote Sant to #2, despite his mispronunciations.

Jonathan boy, I’ve had caraili from all kinds of different people and I can’t say I ever found any I like. Thanks for your vote of confidence in my guitar playing though.

Crankyputz – Isn’t it obvious? Canada of course.

Eemanee – Well I guess the mm has to earn his or her salary. Allyuh does have to go through that in Barbados too?

Vami – Thanks Vami!

Chennette – Oh Gosh, Lamy actually said that? Geez. Chennette, just tonight I was listening to the CNC# newscast when Astil Renn was reporting on today’s England/Australia game (where Australia won) and at the very end of it he says “England won the game by seven wickets”. I kid you not. Where do they get these people? And this is the second time he’s done something like this in just a few weeks. I think I may need to stop watching CNC3 for a while. It used to be a lot better, but now they are copying reports directly from foreign sources (is that part of the business?), they have a hard time pronouncing words any serious reporter shouldn’t, plus they have a whole host of technical glitches on a nightly basis like the wrong video being shown for a story. It’s kind of painful to watch actually, especially as I thought they had long passed the teething stage.

Oh yeah, believe me Ochro is definitely on that list. Talk about a mouthful of slime.

Natashac – Thanks!

Island Spice – Oh gosh Spice, why yuh want to make me embarrass so? lol

#10 – Caraili is at least pretty looking – ochroes? funny texture on the outside, slimy on the inside – food?

#11, well the Marketing Manager has to do something, right?

I think that Unity song is terrible…of all the music in the Carribean that sure is a poor presenation…

Had me laughing about the pens…

8. Leonard Cohen was already a successful writer when he switched tracks and became a musician at, I believe, the ripe old age of 36. So take heart, and practise those chords.

10. I am convinced people who hate on caraili aren’t cooking it right. Properly cooked caraili is a wonderful thing. You need to generously salt it beforehand to draw out the bitterness.

Next thing you’ll be saying David “Boosh Fires” Parasaram is the best weatherman we ever had!

Re #5: Wham to you boy? Dave Lamy was the best! jk And I’ve heard European commentators pronounce Rosicky both ways.

Re #9: But they ARE doing us a favour. If only I could return it…

Re #10: Bodi and Baigan too

Re #11: My sentiments exactly. But I scream whenever I see ads for Udecott, Eteck and for any Ministry. I always wonder how much money they spend on ads and how it could more effectively be spent on something to prevent more baby deaths.
