Revolutionary Music Day!
Yesterday I had one of my Bob Marley High Power Days! It basically consisted of me playing a number of Marley tracks usually selected as if I’m operating a sound system and playing to an international audience.
Oh, and the volume has to be way up high because you get the best effect from certain [...]

Thou Shalt Date Black Girls!
Of all the women on planet earth available to be desired, loved and cherished, the black woman is easily the most sensitive! This is particularly pertinent when the subjects of sex, race, slavery and skin colour preference are under discussion.
One has to walk gingerly, as if on eggshells or in the china shop, around these [...]

Thou Shalt Not Date White Girls!
Some people would prefer if I declare my love only for black women, but the fact is my love stretches far beyond the boundary of colour. Race, religion, tribe, culture, class, language and nationality are still no barrier. What I’m really attracted to when I think about loving someone is their personality.
At some stages in [...]

One Flew Over The Swine Chest!
I saw somewhere where someone, a woman, made a joke about a current event. She said: “Wouldn’t it be funny if a Rastaman caught Swine Flu!”
My initial thoughts were that a true Rastaman (Muslim or orthodox Jew for that matter!) does not deal with pig food. But there lies the crack in the fissure: you [...]

Reasons I Like Living In London
Why I like London because I can be anonymous there! When I moved from a small country town this was an advantage as it gave me chance to get to know the place singly before having to complicate things with friends and/or family, none of which I had in London.
London represented a step towards progress: [...]

When Luck Is A Blessing
If something good happens to you once you can call it luck. At best you can call it chance; at worse probability. Some people might call it fate! If good things happen to you all the time you cannot call it luck. It has to be given another name. Blessing is a good way to [...]

May Day, May Day, Swine Flu Pandemic Ahead!
By now you will have heard that Swine Flu is threatening to become a pandemic. In fact some people have already called it but the World Health Organisation (WHO – you may well ask!) are still cautiously upgrading its status.
Starting from a strain in Mexico Swine Flu has been spreading into other areas Mexicans [...]

Making A Fool Look Intelligent
I’m always wary of anyone who agitates then when someone reacts to their agitation they turn round and say something like: “oh, you’re so sensitive. I was only joking!”
That’s a bit like carefully laying the dynamite, taking care to ensure that the wires are neatly tucked out of sight, connecting up the wires to [...]

Happy 100 Days Mr. US President!
They say a week is a long time politics, so how about the first 100 days, 14.25 weeks or 3.57 months?! That must seem like an eternity and that’s precisely how long US President Barack Obama has been in office today.
Every medium, from the good to the bad and even the downright ugly, have been [...]

Is Jesus The Answer?
A religious worker dropped a pamphlet through my letterbox last Sunday. “Jesus is the answer” the headline said. I looked at and without skipping a beat my mind responded: “But, what was the question?” I thought…
You can substitute the word “Jesus” with the name of your particular spiritual or lifestyle guide. However, from where I [...]
