This magazine interview was really good, but last thursday's ABC interview made it seem like she was unprepared...also it showed the close line between her two accents. On FB, I saw the following comment 'shes frank about her part in it..and shes thinking about her responses...if its rehearsing she wudnt be thinking what shes gonna say thru...stopping and starting on ideas...changing direction of her answers as her thoughts follow thru...im a huge cynic but i do think shes being sincere...name a star who went thru a more tough situation and didnt do a tell all where they just stuck with generalizations and deflected the questions...rih is being straight forward, not coy, and not general'

My fav scene in Saw VI - the shotgun circle [I watched Saw VI twice in the cinema!!!]


It does seem a lot of current hiphop music is going the euro-dance route
Night Shift by Busy Signal is now getting large in Barbados but it's soooo OLD, as in April 2009 ancient.

The entire Gaza Empire was in Barbados, I remembered Beenie Man said if Kartel found more melody like in "we nah go no way', he'd give Mavado a harder run for his money - this was on boomtribe's radio show about 4/5 months ago.
I love both of their music, however Kartel is the better lyricist!
check this; Mavado is 'Di Principal'.If Kartel is 'Di Teacha'

I wish BigShip didn't drop Kartel, he would have terrorized the outBreak riddim.

Drake is a singer and rapper - the equiavalent in dancehall would be Shaggy?

the good, the bad, the ugly, the crazy - Can't find this album anywhere.

Sir Alan Stanford will no longer be called Sir. First time Antigua ever rescinded a title of such high honour. [knighthood]

Sebastien Loeb [Citroen] won the Great Britain rally and the WRC 2009!


like me playing retro Colin Mcrae 3


fb lite? What the HELL

I find myself listening to a lot of old dancehall from the 80's recently, SuperCat, Ninjaman, Tenor Saw, Cocoa Tea, Mickey General, Courtney Melody, Papa San, Yellowman, Sluggy Ranks, Junior Demus, Charlie Chaplin, even Barbados' own Ranking Ricky and Lil Rick

Curious George 2?

SAW A GL550 @ SHERATON, who owns it? worth over $80,000USD


jar the UNSEEN PREQUELS on whapaxx

Lil Wayne might have to cut his hair if he goes to prison...BUT I loved his last mixtape 'No Ceilings'/spit hanging from my mouth.. retard flow and I saw what I want like an awards show.... BOOM!

Jovi Rockell's mixtape hit the net today [puhed back from Monday]/Just downed it, gonna listen very soon!

google wave is gonna kill everything on the net, if Everything is to be linked, there's not much to be separated. [If I understand corectly]

heard that amteur model search returned on CBC TV8

word of the day 'antihypersensitivtiy'

miss international transvestite? WTH

Bob Fosse, Michael Jackson - Pas de Deux/1st there was Fred Astaire, then Bob Fossem then Michael

I'm not entirely sure I want to 'This is it' or 'Hush 2', nor do I ever want to see 'I can do bad all by myself' [seems like a horrible film]
I want to see 'Jennifers body' + Sorrorirty row both of which I could have seen last tuesday or yesterday at the Olympus theatre cinema special.
+Also waiting to see 'We are the takers', 'Ninja Assassin', 'Avatar', 'Sherlock Holmes' + '2012'.[whose perspective is it filmed in if the entire earth is no more/must be the ones who got away on the SaveHumanity ship]

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Re-Occurring Fashion trend - Big Boots

No, not hi-top sneakers/so last summer 09 [previous trend was in 2003/04, I actually still have my old Adidas under my bed at my mom's house...Vintage I call them], Big Boots, you know the ones where if you were a fisherman in Slovenia, you have to be donning them everyday. The ones, soldiers wore back in the 60's.....Yup, they're back

Back in 1994 [when I'd have been 7 years], BIG Boots seemed to be all the rage, below you can see the similarity of style.


in 1994



in 2009

Haven't you seen the 'transform ya' video? Pretty flipping cool...
Anyway popeater dislikes Chris' boots ' and the entire album cover actually...
I've been trying to search what type of boots Mechanical Dummy [Chris Breezy] is wearing, but to no avail.
It'd be almost impossible for me to seek the name of Junior Demus'.

I won't be bold enough to make the Big Boot fashion statement just yet... I'll stay with Hi-top sneaks, right now though I'm feeling the Skytop Societies.
I wonder if the big fashion houses [PRADA, GUCCI, LOUIE VUITTON etc..] are putting big boots in their winter collection



but I still haven't saved for my Skytop Ones...and they are already Skytop Dueces! Go http://suprafootwear.com/footwear/






Slightly off-topic -- Michael Jordan's son @ College refuses to wears University Sponsored Adidas which causes the school to lose it's Contract.
