Carifesta poll results

The majority of you polled (44 %) felt that Carifesta wasn't worth the fuss and our performance will prove we are not ready to host such an event, and we are still lagging behind our caribbean counterparts. But amazingly enough (39%) believed Guyana was ready for an event of such magnitude since it would increase Guyana's exposure and tourist appeal. The minority (10%) were all for the event but claimed Guyana was not fully/ properly prepared for carifesta. The remaining few, y'all just damn confused. Regardless of what we think the president is pissing and shitting gold medals, he is so ecstatic about the outcome. Sounds as though he is surprised we actually pulled it off and no one was abducted, kidnapped, killed or hurt in the making of CARIFESTA and the stadium is still standing. (giggles) personally I was all for CARIFESTA, i have to admit the preparations going into the affair was mediocre and the executions of some events left a bitter taste in your mouth. But it came and went and I hope we use this as a learning experience and next time planning should start from day one. ( that very same day CHRONICLE started posting that blasted count down on the front page) 365 days until carifesta .. lol

Why should Usain Bolt celebrate?

Now what I cannot comprehend, is why the International Community criticizing on Usain Bolt for his manner of celebration after he broke the world record in the men's 100 and 200 meter ? I read that even the President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Jacques Rogge stated that "He should shake hands with his competitors and not ignore them" and "He'll learn that sooner or later. But (he's) a great athlete, of course". I have seen Bolt acknowledge and even childishly play around with his competitors. Many American athletes have celebrated their win in a similar manner and I am yet to see anyone hurl criticism at them. Usain is indeed very childish and his antics may just reflect his true age, lol but I think the criticism is undue and unprovoked. All athletes have that air about them, that comes with the territory even the most humble of competitors have an egotistical and bigheaded attitude while competing. I hope his ass keeps on breaking records left right and center and let those crazy Americans send their scientists to test the yams and the diet he grew up on in Jamaica. Those Americans always amaze me, just can't accept that they lost fair and square. Americans always finding fault in everything, it looks childish and it is simply annoying, and that is the character of a sore loser and unsportsmanlike behavior at its finest. Booo Hoo

Clean up for "CARIfesta in a HURRIfesta"

Has anyone noticed just one week before CARIFESTA, the government has the urge to clean up our environment. Government should realize by now, if they do regular clean ups through out the year, it won't be such a hassle to clean up the big ass pile of mess, when big events are scheduled to come into town. The only valid argument the Government may have, as to why they don't do regular cleanups , would be due to labour costs (which aren't high in any case, but we will look over that minor detail), but guess what, they can access free ass labour, by using all those individuals who commit petty and minor crimes, and put their asses to work. Let them pay off their debt to society. Doesn't take a frigging genius to come up with this idea. Lawd...... Why must we be so last minute in every aspect of our lives. I tell yuh Procrastination is a Sin.
