big up waterhouse everytime!

but the thing that gets me is...<span style="font-weight: bold">to me</span> it is sad that we are always so happy when a one makes it out of the ghetto as we mainly expect failure from the ghetto or from poor areas;
why have we accepted class as a marker for future success in jamaica...
this is the shame of our gov't and overall on us as a nation...
the gov't and leaders should be condemned for that situation rather than the one and two who make it out of the ghetto should be a big cause celebre </div></div>

Bingo...B I N G O....my ongoing argument as in stated fact about the divide among Jcans who refuse to admit to the dem n us thinking...it permeates our interactions ...yessiday paper had a story of a young lady who juss tek her Hippocratic Oath as a doctor in JA...she is pictured wid har modda who is a Jamaica Observer seller...dat is di modda livelihood n she carried forward the use to b Jcan tenet dat she tun har hand to wat was at hand fi put har child a step ahead ...as I commented , dat is a Mother indeed n in deed....n dat report on dat achievement by modda n chile go widdout comment by readers, BUT readers STILL a debate wedda Bolt ha bad luck, smaddy obeah him etc...people all a lavish protective prayer ovah him cause is muss Satan deh pon him bak, n not a man mekking poor choices , like driving too fast n being an inexperienced driver...his running n getting supposed props fi &quot;Jamaica&quot; grab people more a one who go against the odds fi years n do something tangible fi di longterm welfare of the nation... Di runner going to get anodda multi million cyar, as is his right, n said will garner more respect ....sigh

As opposed to the half empty people, don't...n the highlighting includes the negative cause dat is Jamaica being &quot;highlighted&quot; too ...or does dat fall under the time half empty is merited..ah sah...the unsaid pon yah is so bloody glaring....but dat is wat makes a discussion site exciting...

I also look at it with the glass half full as there are so much these athletes represent. Crime goes down when they are running, hotels fill up for champs and Gibson, people are. Interested the island etc...It is rough but this give people a chance to feel proud...Anything to highlight Jamaica.
