Just in case you thought I was slacking off, I rewrote my “Don’t bow” post and got it published in today’s Jamaica Observer. If you want to see it, you’ll have to register for the E-paper version (free) because the normal online version does not publish the full paper. My bit is in the “Bookends” section.

I am HIV (article)

Thanks to Charlene and Sharon.

    Just dropping by to say I actually like what I’ve seen on your blog so far. None of the retarded “wow these ‘natives’ are sooo cool” crap I’ve come to expect from a lot of foreigners.
    Also I dig your your music taste judging from your side bar so far :D

    Keep entertaining.
